During his first 100 days in office, President-elect Joe Biden has “vowed to roll back the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown, push policies addressing climate change and potentially forgive student debt for thousands of Americans,” the article stated.

I’m a bit surprised that the Chronicle of Higher Education would publish this ad, give potential legal liability if nothing else.
As Joe Biden was sworn in as America's 46th president on Wednesday, talk-radio star Rush Limbaugh said he believes Democrats are fully aware the 2020 presidential election was illegitimate.
"I think they know that they are not – I gotta be very careful here in the words I choose. I think they know that this is something that's been arranged rather than legitimately sought and won," Limbaugh said on his national broadcast.
Joe Biden was supposedly elected to end all the madness. Make the crazy stop. Give in to the media’s lunatic four-year temper tantrum so the rest of us can get a wink of sleep.
All Joe Biden had to do is … nothing really.
Just about all of his supposed plans for combatting the Chinese plague have been tried by Democrat governors and disastrously failed. Or they are ideas he stole from President Trump and are already working.
So, Joe, just leave it alone and continue to deliver Mr. Trump’s miracle “Warp Speed” vaccines.
WASHINGTON — Jurors saw video and heard testimony from witnesses caught up in riots that paralyzed parts of the District during Donald Trump’s inauguration as the first trial for some of the protesters continued Tuesday.
The trial, before Judge Lynn Leibovitz, began this week and is expected to last a month.More than 200 protesters were arrested on Jan. 20 and six of those are on trial in D.C. Superior Court: Jennifer Armento, Oliver Harris, Brittne Lawson, Michelle Macchio, Christina Simmons and Alexei Wood.
They face felony charges of rioting, conspiracy and destruction of property.
Approximately 20 people charged in connection with the riots have pleaded guilty, and prosecutors have dropped the charges in almost two dozen cases.
Prosecutors said that windows of several businesses were shattered sending customers and employees ducking for cover. A police officer’s wrist was broken when protesters threw bricks and hammers at him.
Tuesday, limousine driver Luis Villarroyal described watching protesters break the windows of the vehicle he had parked, after dropping off five passengers.
Jurors saw video of a protester throwing a lit flare into the back seat of Villarroyal’s limousine. He described snuffing out the flare.
Asked why he didn’t stop the approximately half-dozen people from destroying his car, Villarroyal answered: “I have a daughter — they could harm me.”
While only a few people personally damaged his limo, the hundreds of black-clad protesters nearby “were cheering, enjoying what they were seeing.”
Prosecutors acknowledged that no evidence suggests that the six defendants caused the damage, but their alignment with the so-called “black bloc tactics,” such as dressing in black and wearing masks to avoid being identified, makes them guilty.
An employee at a BP gas station at 13th and N streets NW described a protester pounding on the glass booth she was sitting in, while another man cracked the window with a projectile. She said she tried to pile cases of bottled water in front of the door.
“I’m scared, because I don’t know if they’re coming in,” she said.
The six defendants are represented separately. Defense lawyers told jurors that police rounded up innocent protesters with those responsible for the vandalism, and prosecutors won’t be able to prove their clients committed the damage.
Trials for the other remaining defendants are expected to stretch into next year."
