The pandemic tops that list, but, also Russia has been exerting authority at the USA borders. NORAD has been under attack by an increasing number of Russian jets and there is a matter of at least two nuclear capacity jets in Venezuela. I believe there has been encounters with them by our jets over the Gulf of Mexico.
The Southern border wall needs assessment for its appropriate placement. Conservation groups have been ostracized from carrying out protections of protected species both animal and plant. Even if the border wall is deemed needed there could have been efforts to move these species so there were still viable specimens.
The Northern Triad of Central America is a bit of a disaster and their funding needs to be returned.
There has been assassination of USA military in Afghanistan.
Palestine has been completely ostracized from any solution in the Middle East. They have to be reengaged. Arab leaders opened diplomatic relations with Israel and some are saying the words Two State Solution which hasn’t been spoken for four years.
China’s promotion of communism is taking center stage with Hong Kong and Taiwan. The people are rejecting it.
Russia has a new hypersonic engine for a design of their jets and space vehicles. There has been a launch to the ISS with this these vehicles. The travel time is 3 hours. I also believe this Russia engine was seen in a video out of Southern California at some kind of event where people thought it was a UFO. That is, by the way Russia’s goal, to intrude into the sovereign USA with bombs to start a conventional war with weapons that are rarely considered conventional. Putin is dead serious about this war and he is taking measured steps to carry it out regardless of Trump’s pandering relationship. With the Russians testing all limits it could be easily stated the USA and Russia are already at war without a retaliation by the USA.
Joe Biden must address immediately the children detained at the Southern Border. We are not the people to abuse children, any further continuance of this torture can be a huge problem for the USA. Suggestion to move immediately taking them from detainee sites to Foster Care while searching for their parents. Their health has to be assessed, there may be severe mental health issues that need treatment, too.
All this must be perused to conclusion while the legislature passes bills for signature. Legislation includes Obamacare with measures to secure SSI, Medicare,and Expanded Medicaid, Immigration Reform including Dreamers, Tax Reform, and strengthening of the Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, Climate Crisis, Marine Mammal Protection Act and the Endangered Species Act.
Forget about drilling ANWAR because the climate has changed drastically in the past four years and a complete reassessment of the region needs to occur with collaboration of peers in Canada.
The ice that has mitigated Earth’s climate is nearly gone. The Climate Crisis is upon us and besides the IPCC, the USA needs a Climate Crisis Czar. The absolute best candidate is Chris Field from Stanford. He has been spot on with all the tipping points including the fires in California.
I am sure there are many issues including racial equality and acceptance that is part of the Executive Branch concerns, but, national security on its many fronts must be prioritized by January 21, 2021.
Joe and Kamala deserve a great inauguration before they are met incredible stress demanded by the USA after this Trump nightmare. They will need help from previous Executive Branch administrations to return it to full function. Perhaps if retirees won’t come back, then offer consultantships to restore the Executive Branch.
It is a nightmare and requires former department leaders to return function as quickly as possible. It is beyond my understanding as to how the Republicans in the Senate allowed this deterioration and loss of national security.
It needs to be made certain to USA citizens how very dangerous it has been with Republicans absent to there responsibility to the USA constitution and its people. This level of neglect of our national security must never occur again.
