Trump Dumps ‘Bidenbucks’ and Government Boost of Lefty Voter Groups

M.D. Kittle writes for the Federalist about one of President Trump’s significant early actions.

“Bidenbucks” was technically dead on arrival on President Donald Trump’s first day in office, but the election-influencing executive order that Trump’s predecessor signed nearly four years ago will take diligence to fully kill.

As David Craig, legal director for the Foundation for Government Accountability (FGA), told The Federalist, Biden’s order “has substantial tentacles across government.” FGA has been on the frontlines of the battle against Bidenbucks since the executive order’s inception at the beginning of Biden’s term.

“The head is cut off the snake but the body continues to slither,” Craig said, noting how deeply embedded Bidenbucks is in every agency, each teeming with left-leaning bureaucrats. 

Soon after taking the oath of office on Monday, the new president rescinded scores of his predecessor’s edicts that Trump says “embedded deeply unpopular, inflationary, illegal, and radical practices within every agency and office of the Federal government.” Among the chloroformed is Biden’s Executive Order 14019. It has been expunged from the White House website.

The so-called “Promoting Access o Voting” directive that Biden signed in early March 2021 was nothing more than a taxpayer-funded get-out-the-vote machine to elect Democrats. As The Federalist has reported, the order instructed federal agencies to assist in a nationwide voter registration promotion campaign. 

While Pravda press media outlets like NPR — also funded with tax dollars — insist that Republicans and election integrity watchdogs have provided “no substantial evidence” to justify their concerns, documents obtained through prolonged court battles show NPR doesn’t know what the hell it’s talking about. The executive branch campaign was created by far-left activists and carried out with the support of leftist nonprofits. And Biden’s DEI-embedded agencies clearly targeted traditionally Democrat voters. 

The constitutionally suspect executive order sparked several lawsuits challenging the GOTV scheme, including a federal complaint from attorneys general in nine states. Among the charges, the lawsuit alleges the Biden administration has usurped the appropriating power of Congress, which did not grant the executive branch authority to fund the unprecedented GOTV initiative.
