Biden reversed Trump&#8217;s controversial \u2062&#8221;Schedule F&#8221; order, which allowed the president to more easily fire federal employees, and implemented new regulations designed to protect federal workers from\u2063 swift removals. This push aims\u2064 to \u2064solidify Biden&#8217;s accomplishments\u200b and\u2063 create barriers that\u200d would prevent \u200ba rapid \u200cdismantling of his policies\u2062 should a \u200cRepublican\u200d administration take \u200cover. The article\u2062 notes \u2064the complexities of the Congressional Review Act\u2063 and\u2064 its\u2064 implications for Biden&#8217;s\u2063 regulatory changes.<\/p>\n<p>2. \u2064**GOP Attacks on Walz\u2019s Military Record**:\u200b The second part covers\u200b the political\u200d tension between Republican Senator J.D. Vance and Democratic Governor Tim Walz\u200c regarding their respective military backgrounds. Vance criticizes Walz for \u2063retiring from the Army National Guard shortly before\u200d his unit was deployed to\u2063 Iraq, accusing him of abandoning\u200c his\u2063 service. The timing\u200d of \u200bWalz&#8217;s retirement has\u2062 come under scrutiny, and Vance uses it as a \u200cpoint to\u2064 question Walz&#8217;s commitment compared to \u2062his own service\u2062 in combat. Walz\u2019s past comments about his military experience have also drawn criticism from Vance and Republicans, adding fuel to the political battle as both\u2063 seek their parties&#8217; vice \u2063presidential nominations.<\/p>\n<p>the article addresses the proactive steps Biden is taking to protect \u2064his legacy\u2063 against\u200b potential reversals by Trump and the contentious debate surrounding military service records \u2063in the evolving political landscape.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Wake up with the Washington Examiner: Biden&rsquo;s &lsquo;Trump-proofing&rsquo; plan and GOP&rsquo;s war with Walz&rsquo;s service record<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_1725684\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Regulation check<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/white-house\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>Presidents<\/a> don&rsquo;t like to see their legacies go up in smoke days after they leave office.

Though Trump said &lsquo;every&rsquo; executive branch employee would be fireable if he won, his actual proposal would only affect a small percentage of them,&rdquo; he wrote.<\/p>\n<p>The basis for Biden&rsquo;s authority to remove Schedule F provided the heft behind the regulatory push his administration has made to cement initiatives and plans that couldn&rsquo;t be overturned on Day One of a Trump presidency.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Biden moved in early April to finalize rules that would put federal government employees behind a regulatory wall that could not easily be torn down,&rdquo; Haisten wrote.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The Biden administration&rsquo;s<a href=\"https:\/\/public-inspection.federalregister.gov\/2024-06815.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title> new rule<\/a> was finalized in April,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/2953594\/biden-protect-federal-workers-trump-deep-state-purge\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title> early enough<\/a> to escape the Congressional Review Act, which gives Congress a 60-day window to pass resolutions that &lsquo;disapprove&rsquo; of an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/biden-works-to-trump-proof-the-federal-government\/\" title=\"Biden works to Trump-proof the federal government\">executive branch agency regulation<\/a> through an expedited process,&rdquo; he wrote.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Congressional Review Act, under the right circumstances, can empower Congress to gut executive branch attempts to write rules &mdash; though there is a catch.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Economics and Business Reporter <strong>Zachary Halaschak <\/strong>had a helpful <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/policy\/finance-and-economy\/2998312\/congressional-review-act-what-to-know\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>explainer<\/a> earlier this summer:&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>The CRA is a powerful deregulatory tool when used in the right context. It allows Congress to easily vote to cancel recent rules through a joint resolution of disapproval. In order to rescind the rule, the resolution needs a simple majority vote in both the House and the Senate and then needs to be signed by the president. The rule is then canceled and cannot be enforced.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Critically, CRA resolutions can be brought up for a vote on an expedited basis in the Senate by any member. Generally, legislation requires 60 votes in the Senate to advance, because of the filibuster, which allows a minority of 40 or more to hold up bills. CRA resolutions, though, bypass the filibuster.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>If the president vetoes the resolution, Congress can still roll back the rule if two-thirds of lawmakers vote to override the veto.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>One limitation of the CRA, though, is that a lawmaker has to file the resolution within 60 working days of the rule being reported. That means that Congress can cancel only relatively recent rules.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>So, there are time limits and majority questions that need to be considered if Republicans want to cancel a president&rsquo;s power play. And in the case of one Biden attempt at rewriting the rulebook, there is a legal aspect that can interfere as well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In his attempt to rewrite Title IX rules to change the definition of sex to include transgender identities, Biden has run into both Congress voting to undo his rule and courts blocking it from going into effect. Most of the rule was finalized in April, well before the 60-day timeline, but if the legal problem of enacting it everywhere isn&rsquo;t sorted before he leaves office, it will be much easier for Trump and a possible GOP-run House and Senate to nix the rule.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Click <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/3106551\/biden-administration-rulemaking-blitzes-aim-trump-proof-federal-government\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title><em>here<\/em><\/a><em>  to read more about the up and down efforts to &ldquo;Trump-proof&rdquo; Biden&rsquo;s legacy.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">GOP goes to war with Walz&rsquo;s military record<\/h2>\n<p>Sen. <strong>J.D.

That end date, in particular, has been the point of attack for Vance and Republicans who charge Walz, who never went into a combat zone, decided to retire from the service when his unit got orders to go to Iraq.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;When the United States Marine Corps, when the United States of America asked me to go to Iraq to serve my country, I did it,&rdquo; Vance said this week. &ldquo;I did what they asked me to do, and I did it honorably, and I&rsquo;m very proud of that service. When Tim Walz was asked by his country to go to Iraq, you know what he did? He dropped out of the Army and allowed his unit to go without him.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>The timeline Vance lays out isn&rsquo;t so clear.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;About two months after Walz retired, his unit received its orders to deploy to Iraq, according to a National Guard <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalguard.mil\/News\/Article\/573070\/guard-unit-recognized-for-record-deployment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title>article<\/a>.

President Joe Biden is not only focused on his own accomplishments; he is also concerned about how a potential second term for Donald Trump could impact both his achievements and the overall functioning of the government.<\/p>\n<p>In the second installment of our series analyzing how Biden and Democrats are attempting to &#8220;Trump-proof&#8221; governance, White House Reporter Haisten Willis examined three key strategies that the Biden administration has implemented to shield its legacy from Republican challenges.<\/p>\n<p>A significant worry for Democrats is Trump&#8217;s previous attempt to implement &#8220;Schedule F,&#8221; which aimed to reclassify numerous executive branch employees, making it easier for a president to dismiss them at will. Upon taking office, Biden promptly rescinded this order, prompting Trump to declare that he would target what he calls the &#8220;deep state&#8221; if re-elected. <\/p>\n<p>Trump stated in 2022: \u201cWe will pass critical reforms making every executive branch employee fireable by the president of the United States. The deep state must and will be brought to heel.\u201d Haisten provided context regarding Trump&#8217;s reference to &#8220;deep state,&#8221; noting it pertains roughly to 2.2 million federal employees who conservatives argue operate without accountability.<\/p>\n<p>Biden\u2019s authority in reversing Schedule F underpins his administration\u2019s regulatory efforts aimed at solidifying initiatives that could withstand immediate repeal by a future Trump presidency. In early April, Biden finalized rules designed as protective barriers around federal employees against easy dismantling.<\/p>\n<p>These new regulations were established early enough in April so they would not fall under scrutiny from Congress through expedited disapproval processes outlined in the Congressional Review Act (CRA). This act allows Congress a limited timeframe\u201460 days\u2014to vote on resolutions disapproving recent agency regulations without facing filibuster hurdles.<\/p>\n<p>However, there are limitations; resolutions must be filed within 60 working days following rule reporting and can only target relatively recent regulations. Additionally, legal challenges may arise concerning some rules enacted during Biden\u2019s tenure\u2014such as changes related to Title IX\u2014that could complicate their enforcement before he leaves office.<\/p>\n<p>In another political arena, Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) is challenging Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) over their military service records as they vie for vice presidential nominations within their parties\u2014a conflict fueled by differing narratives about their respective service experiences.<\/p>\n<p>Vance criticized Walz for retiring just before his unit was deployed overseas while highlighting his own combat experience in Iraq with pride\u2014a narrative complicated by timelines showing Walz had planned retirement prior but faced accusations of misrepresenting his service record during political discourse.<\/p>\n<p>For more details on these developments regarding efforts surrounding Biden&#8217;s legacy protection and GOP critiques of Walz\u2019s military history click here<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2702,"featured_media":2321015,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/joe-biden-regulation.webp","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[3620,6203,37394,27318],"class_list":["post-2321014","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-biden","tag-gop","tag-trump-proofing","tag-walz"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/joe-biden-regulation.webp","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2321014","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2702"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2321014"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2321014\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2321015"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2321014"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2321014"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2321014"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
