It is understandable why so many expected a change of pace in governance from the White House. Biden’s entire campaign centered on calls for unity, the restoration of norms, and a promise to allow law enforcement officers independence free from White House interference.

CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) - Union employees rallied outside a Cleveland nursing home on Wednesday to protest their work conditions during the pandemic.

“They’re flying these banners that say, ‘Heroes work here,’ but in no way are they being treated in that manner,” she added.
