re: fracking: When asked soon after the comment, he clarified that he was referring to fracking on federal property. The original context of his comments that he would ban fracking were usually centered around the controversy of Trump having opened up lots of federal land to fracking. Fracking on federal land is a small fraction of total output.

re: 2k stimulus checks. Not sure what the actual intent was, but I immediately understood it to mean that they would send out $1400 checks because $2k was the initial amount that Dems wanted and GOP negotiated it down to $600. As for "everyone" well, do we really think -everyone- should get money? Very few people are in favor of high earners getting a check.

re: covid plan. Not sure where you got that. He was working on covid and spending more time pre-Jan 20 meeting with covid experts and task forces than the president at the time. Who was preoccupied with his tv and phone.

re: MPP. Looks like it is already underway. https://www.metro.us/biden-to-bring-in/ You have to unwind programs like this to avoid causing even more harm.

re: immigration facility reopened. Biden admin provided extensive explanation of why they needed to re-open it. Unaccompanied children arriving at the border. They need some stop gap at the moment.
