It\u2019s going to be \u201cThe Way We Were.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Just before he announced the first members of his team, the next president was heard singing in his Delaware basement,<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cMemories light the corners of my mind,<\/em><br \/><em>\u201cMisty water-colored memories of the way we were.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>My source claims Biden wanted Perry Como to sing the song at the inauguration. Informed that Como died nearly 20 years ago, Biden agreed to let a fresh face, Barbra Streisand, give it a try.<\/p>\n<p>The next president turned 78 last Friday and his first selections reveal he\u2019s got a bad case of nostalgia. Less kindly, he\u2019s stuck in the past.<\/p>\n<p>Is Biden assembling an administration or a wax museum? John Kerry and Janet Yellen, you\u2019re melting! And it has nothing to do with climate change.<\/p>\n<p>The problem is not just that Biden\u2019s selections show a fondness for old shoes. It\u2019s the policies, stupid.<\/p>\n<p>Robert Gates, who ran the CIA and was later Secretary of Defense during much of the Obama-Biden administration, famously said of the former vice president, \u201cI think he\u2019s been wrong on nearly every major foreign-policy and national security issue over the past four decades.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In Washington terms, that gives Biden a perfect record, and because nothing succeeds like failure, it\u2019s not surprising he would tap others involved in many of the same policy disasters.<\/p>\n<p>As Sen. Marco Rubio <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/marcorubio\/status\/1331238258509045761\">described it<\/a>, Biden has gathered \u201cpolite and orderly caretakers of American decline.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>America First is dead, America Last is back. Is there a good idea in the house?<\/p>\n<p>Kerry, as secretary of state, was the architect of the Iran deal and the Paris climate accord, both of which President Trump rightly jettisoned. Now Kerry\u2019s back as climate czar, and eager to throw another wet blanket over the economy. Biden foolishly also put him on the National Security Council, guaranteeing monologues and endless turf battles.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16676757\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img class=\"size-large wp-image-16676757 lazyload\" alt=\"Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu (left), President Donald Trump and United Arab Emirates (UAE) Foreign Minister Abdullah bin Zayed (right) display their copies of signed agreements during the signing ceremony of the Abraham Accords.\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/11\/TrumpAbrahamAccords.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=300 300w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/11\/TrumpAbrahamAccords.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=640 640w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/11\/TrumpAbrahamAccords.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1280 1280w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/11\/TrumpAbrahamAccords.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/11\/TrumpAbrahamAccords.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=2000 2000w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span>Israel\u2019s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, President Trump and UAE Foreign Minister Abdullah bin Zayed during the Abraham Accords signing ceremony.\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"credit\">REUTERS<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Iran pact coddled and financed the murderous mullahs and their terror brigades while paving the way for them to get nukes. Biden, perhaps unaware of the earth-shattering Mideast changes during the last four years, has talked of wanting to return to it.<\/p>\n<p>Somebody might want to get his attention by singing that \u201ctime has rewritten every line.\u201d Under the Abraham Accords forged by Trump, three Muslim countries \u2014 the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Sudan \u2014 recognized Israel and are establishing trade and tourist relations with the Jewish state.<\/p>\n<p>Just last weekend, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia met in a historic first, suggesting the Saudis might join the growing club.<\/p>\n<p>The triumph of peace over hatred reflects that the four Muslim countries fear Iran and regard Israel as an ally. Kerry said such deals were not possible without Palestinian <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>roval. He was clearly wrong, so why would Biden jeopardize progress by again embracing Iran and its malignant regime?<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s another sure sign of how bad Biden\u2019s picks are: China is delighted. The Global Times, a Communist Party mouthpiece pretending to be a <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a>paper, saw the choices, especially that of Tony Blinken as Secretary of State and Jake Sullivan as national security adviser, as evidence Biden \u201cwould bring back a rational approach to relations with China.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rational to China means they win, we lose. That was the imbalance Trump inherited, and he made great progress in changing, or didn\u2019t Biden notice that either?<\/p>\n<p>Even most Democrats realize that China was ripping off our <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/technology\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"4\" title=\"Technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">technology<\/a> and stealing jobs for the last 30 years, and that Trump\u2019s trade deals, and the use of tariffs, were big steps in fixing the one-sided relationship.<\/p>\n<p>The Global Times also quoted a Chinese professor as saying Blinken\u2019s history shows \u201chis stance is softer than that of the current administration.\u201d Another professor said that \u201cCompared to Trump\u2019s barbaric style of dealing with China, Biden will take a much more civilized manner with a much more clever approach.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Amidst all this flattery, it\u2019s worth remembering that China, with its vast spying network and cyber snooping, knows what Hunter Biden was up to with his schemes, and also what Joe Biden knew about his son\u2019s lucrative deal with Chinese officials, struck while Joe was veep. And Blinken reportedly met twice with Hunter Biden in 2015 in the State Department.<\/p>\n<p>That kind of thing is why Attorney <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">General<\/a> Bill Barr must take the existing FBI probe of possible money laundering by Hunter and Jim Biden, Joe\u2019s brother, and fold it into an expanded probe headed by a special counsel. The aim would be to protect the investigation from a Biden White House so it could learn whether crimes were committed and whether Joe Biden is compromised by his family\u2019s dealings with leaders of the Communist Party.<\/p>\n<p>Tony Bobulinski, a former partner of Hunter and Jim\u2019s, told the FBI that Joe Biden was slated to get a secret 10 percent cut in one arrangement. It\u2019s worth noting, too, that no Biden has claimed the bombshell e-mails The Post published or anything Bobulinski said is false.<\/p>\n<p>Sullivan, the new national security adviser, also has some explaining to do. He worked for Biden in the White House, so presumably knows all about the family\u2019s China connections. He also helped push the Steele dossier, which was used by the FBI to spy on Trump\u2019s 2016 campaign and ultimately led to the Robert Mueller investigation.<\/p>\n<p>As Fox News reported, Sullivan secretly admitted to Congress he met with Washington <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">media<\/a> outlets before the 2016 election and \u201cwalked through what we understood to be the case\u201d of Russia collusion with the Trump campaign. Chalk that up as another example of weaponizing government power for partisan purposes, though not a single Democrat, including Biden, ever apologized for putting the nation through three years of hell based on phony accusations of collusion.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s bad enough most of those people escaped accountability. Worse, some now get an encore.
