Deb Haaland's Grilling by Congress Reveals What a Clown Car the Biden Admin Is Running

We’ve seen just how incompetent and bad some of the nominees that the Biden administration has put forth are. They’ve been so bad they can’t even answer basic questions they should know for their position, such as FAA nominee Phil Washington and judicial nominee Kato Crews.
However, the problem, as we’ve also seen, is that it’s not just the nominees, it’s the folks who are already in their positions who are beyond incompetent. We see how bad White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre is every day at the daily briefing — she never answers anything and is always passing the buck to some other agency to answer the question so she doesn’t have to. We’ve seen the incompetence of Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) lit him up over his incompetence at his job on Tuesday, with Mayorkas even refusing to admit that there was a “crisis” at the border. Then, Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) trapped him into responding to what was an “assault weapon” and Hawley nailed him on his lack of knowledge about the influx of Chinese nationals coming across the border.
But the problem stems from the top, with Joe Biden not picking good people for the jobs. So Mayorkas isn’t the only Cabinet Secretary who seems out to lunch when it comes to understanding how to properly do his job and not just be a political hack. That became abundantly clear when Biden Interior Secretary Deb Haaland was also questioned by Congress.
Haaland was asked something she should have been on sure ground on — the Green New Deal — something which she co-sponsored when she was in Congress. Yet when Rep. Guy Reschenthaler (R-PA) asked her whether she knew that it banned fracking and clean coal, she appeared not to understand that, saying it was “2023” and she “sponsored a lot of bills when she was in Congress.”
