Biden's America Adrift

The NSS declares that the administration has “broken down the dividing line between foreign policy and domestic policy” for its priorities of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), and climate change, which it refers to as the “greatest and potentially existential” shared problem confronting the world. The NSS mentions climate or climate change at least 63 times, clean energy, air or water another 19 times; and DEI, or its components, 37 times. To bring these values to the world and “uphold the rights of all Americans,” the NSS pugnaciously proclaims that “we must proactively shape the international order in line with our interests and values,” and be prepared to use all of America’s power to “center” equity and inclusion, reduce fossil fuels, and promote the green agenda.
