Why would President Biden, with the stroke of a pen, in the middle of one of the worst recessions and economic recoveries, destroy thousands of good-paying pipeline jobs and the livelihoods and future of hardworking American families? Well, for the same reason he has imposed his open border mandates that have created an unprecedented crisis at our southern border. He is placating the left. He is putting them in charge. And he is allowing them to drive their radical agenda to transform our economy, our values, and our way of life. Gaylord Lincoln, a pipeline mechanic from South Dakota, said it best: ``Come down here. See the destruction you caused. See the pain of job loss. You took our chance to have a decent life with a stroke of a pen. It is all BS in Washington. They are playing with our lives.'' Mr. Lincoln is right; it is BS. They are playing with their lives, and this President is leading the charge. ____________________
