Larry Donnelly analyses the new US President’s first few weeks in action.

Larry Donnelly Law lecturer, NUI Galway THE NEW PRESIDENT of the United States, Joe Biden, has hit the ground running, just as the 78-year-old pledged he would.

On Covid-19, these include compulsory wearing of masks on federal property, a pause on student loan payments through September and a moratorium on foreclosures and evictions. That is manifested from ongoing discussions on the coronavirus stimulus package that has been advanced by the White House. Meanwhile, however, Biden’s agenda is set to be temporarily derailed insofar as attention will turn this week to another Donald Trump impeachment trial.

In their words, “President Trump created a powder keg on January 6. Hundreds were prepared for violence at his direction…All they needed to hear was their President needed them to ‘fight like hell.’ All they needed was for President Trump to strike a match.” Trump’s defence team has responded in its answer by assailing the constitutional legitimacy of a trial in the circumstances. “The constitutional provision requires that a person actually hold office to be impeached. Since the 45th President is no longer ‘President,’ the clause ‘shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for…’ is impossible for the Senate to accomplish.”

It is far safer for these Republicans to hang their hats on constitutional doubts and on a connected practical thought that is bound to strike many Americans: What is the point of this trial? The “duck” is there for them.

Who paid for that tweet CHINA ?

A hair-sniffing creep?

LarryPDonnelly I'm sure it is nice....nice for people who rely on the for their 'news'.

Laughable from . No matter how much you push him the fact is most people have already done their due diligence on Biden. He is just as bad if not worse than his predecessor.

P p p p p p push that naritive Shove it down our necks till you suffocate us with it

You might want to 'fact check' that 🤣

LarryPDonnelly No shortage of Q's in Ireland either.

USA troops in Eastern syria today Bringing peace to the world again after a 4 year break.

There is absolutely no substantial facts behind that headline.

Seriously LarryPDonnelly ? Joe is being used, day after day, by the far left to push their utopian agenda. The USA as we know it is done. I genuinely think Joe may be the last democratic president for a long long time. Imposing Executive orders is no way to legislate. A unifier?

It's a shame the Journal's resident fact-checker must have been on leave when the below was printed:

Did they get some1 new in to replace sleazy joe already

I'll tell Doonbeg

No

Sexual assault isn't sexual assault if someone Larry likes does it. Creating a prison state for the black & poor isn't creating a prison for the black & poor if someone Larry likes does it.

Talk to Tara Reade.

How can you respect someone who has spent 40 odd years doing nothing only looking after himself on the taxpayer loot and insider connections

Biden seems likeable unlike his predecessor. No doubt he will cause some fuss and the morons commenting here will be on it like flies on shit. Trump must really be like viagra to these people

Most (if not all) of the comments here would be removed from the comments section and the users banned from commenting in future. This one sided activist journalism is why the is currently pleading for financial support. Bring back balanced news

The journal p.r machine for the rich

How can u, the child sniffer, didnt he help pass laws that hailed 1000s of blacks for slight drugs infringement while whites got warnings? Typical journal biased shite

He already sent troops back to Iraq.

No, I don't hold any respect for him 🤷‍♀️

I lost much of my respect for you LarryPDonnelly when you publicly defended/excused the RTÉ Covid rule breakers without declaring your bias.

😂😂😂 I've more respect for the dog shit sticking my shoe

He ran on a bunch a lies. You are clearly incredibly idiotic and easily duped by PR if you respect him.

Bernie was the man for real change

I knew this post would trigger the right wing halfwits. 😂😂😂

So the US President is in charge of Ireland too, or did you move there? Roll on him ramping up of their foreign policy 🙄

Child sniffing and touching is to be respected now?

Biden getting a lot love here 🤔😂

American people s 2k COVID payments must be in the post so they can’t live on respect ?

The man is totally corrupt and has slight dementia and is also a creepy bast*rd ... trust him 😀😀😀😀

Biden voted for many a war, what would I respect him for.

Hes a puppet for the war machine.. dont be fooled

Biden who never voted against a war, who is senile, who sniffs children...

Don’t make me laugh! This guy is a snake! The US will be involved in some sort or war soon enough!
