The Biden administration has moved quickly to remove a number of senior officials aligned with former President Donald Trump from the Voice of America and the agency that oversees all U.S.-funded international broadcasting.
The actions address fears that the U.S. Agency for Global Media was being turned into a pro-Trump propaganda outlet. The agency announced Thursday that VOA’s director and his deputy had been removed from their positions and that the head of the Office of Cuba Broadcasting had resigned. | |

President-elect Joe Biden, on his first day in office Wednesday after taking the Oath of Office, is set to sign an executive order directing federal agencies across the board to implement the U.S. Supreme Court’s historic ruling against anti-LGBTQ discrimination under federal law. | |

President Joe Biden has only been in office for less than a day, but he’s already busy undoing some of his predecessor’s legacy by firing some very awful people and issuing a spree of executive orders. We truly love to see it! In a sign that Biden is doing something right, one of the executive orders he issued on Wednesday night has pissed off a cohort of some of the worst people in the world—TERFs and other supposed feminists who have made it their mission in life in recent years to loudly fight the expansion of trans rights. | |

QAnon-believing Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) vowed to file articles of impeachment against President Joe Biden the day after his inauguration.
However, Atlanta-based New Yorker staffer writer Charles Bethea reports that Greene still hasn't filed the articles against Biden because she seems to have underestimated the difficulty in enacting such a procedure.
"According to a GOP source in her district, Greene 'thought it would be a lot easier than it is,'" Bethea reports. | |

A Nazi flag hung on a tree in northern Wake County under a "Biden Harris" campaign sign has been torn down and replaced with an American flag.
New video shows a man pulling up in a truck late Thursday morning and taking the flag down after police said they could not remove it since it falls under freedom of speech.
The flag, hung by the property's landlord sometime on Wednesday, is located at the intersection Old Falls of Neuse Road and River Hill Drive and is easily visible during daylight hours. Overnight, the renter said someone used a paintball gun to mark out the Nazi symbol on the flag.
A new sign was also posted, reading, "This is not my sign. I am a renter." | |
