Send help! Trump can’t get into office fast enough!
The recent proclamation of the Chuckwalla National Monument and the Sáttítla Highlands National Monument by Joe Biden has sparked interest, not just for the gesture towards conservation, but primarily due to Biden’s appearance of confusion during the signing process. At 82, Biden, who has spent over half a century in politics, seemed unsure of himself, reportedly asking, “I gotta fill this in?” and “Uh, the day of… you’ll fill in the dates here, guys?” Such perceived uncertainty has only fueled concerns about his capability to lead the nation effectively.
The first monument, the Chuckwalla National Monument, encompasses 624,000 acres in Southern California at the convergence of the Mojave and Colorado deserts. The area is celebrated for its impressive mountain ranges, unique rock formations, and the striking Painted Canyon. Meanwhile, the Sáttítla Highlands National Monument spans 224,000 acres in Northern California, featuring the dormant Medicine Lake Volcano. Environmental and cultural protection are at the forefront of this initiative, with acknowledgments to the ongoing efforts of Indigenous tribes and local communities.
“Both the Chuckwalla National Monument and the Sáttítla Highlands National Monument, which is located in northern California’s mountainous interior, will protect clean water for communities, honor areas of cultural significance to Tribal Nations and Indigenous peoples, and enhance access to nature,” the White House announced. Though the sentiment appears noble, critics argue that these measures are surface-level attempts by Biden and the Democratic Party to mask broader systemic issues.
The announcement claims these proclamations are the result of years of effort by numerous stakeholders dedicated to preserving these invaluable resources for future generations. “Today’s announcements follow years of work by Tribal Nations, Indigenous peoples, community leaders, conservation organizations, renewable energy companies, utilities, local businesses, state and local officials, and members of Congress who have worked to ensure that future generations can experience, learn from, and enjoy these irreplaceable resources,” the White House statement added. While environmental protection is crucial, some view these actions as a distraction from Biden’s broader policy inadequacies and deep state maneuvering.
Biden has no idea where he is or what he's doing as he signs a new national monument into law: "I gotta fill this in?"

There is a clear divide between those supporting Biden’s leadership and the proclaimed benefits of these new national monuments and those who view these actions skeptically, as examples of Democratic misdirection and incompetence. For many Republicans and Trump supporters, Biden’s blunders during this process only underscore the need for strong leadership, as exemplified by Trump, who is seen as ready to tackle corruption and restore national confidence.
