do you think maybe we should have been saying it louder before?
because old people probably don’t always hear so well.
(they also sometimes need help climbing down from things…)
The president during the call Monday projected confidence in the United States' ability to handle the omicron variant, saying that it "is a source of concern, but it should not be a source of panic."
"This is not like March of 2020, the beginning of the pandemic. We're prepared and we know what it takes to save lives, protect people and keep schools and businesses open," Biden added. "My message to the governors is simple. If you need something, say something."
the bad kitty just snickered something about “you’ll know it’s truly over when they start trying to claim this has been their stance all along.”
but i don’t think it’s very nice to make fun of elderly people for not remembering stuff!
I’ll believe it when I see it because Biden’s actions condradict his words. When OSHA acquiesces, when the censorship stops, when I see honest reporting on all things Covid, then I’ll believe Biden.
It was said on another blog but there can be no federal solution, no state solution.. no group solution to INDIVIDUAL health. Individual health can and should Only be addressed by the individual (with whatever trusted support team they choose to employ)
Seems like a trick. Is this opening the door to governors enacting their own mandates and forcing new lawsuits, given the likelihood of failure on a federal scale? Would any state mandate violate the commerce clause or otherwise unduly restrict travel? So many questions and no reason to trust them.
I'm still in gob-smacking awe of the idiocy that businesses and institutions have shown, putting covid jab mandates into action even before there's any law. So they will lose 1000s of great employees, and millions of dollars in losses, and then have to reverse it all? The stupidity is just astounding.
"is a source of concern, but it should not be a source of panic."
Well now, either I must be misremembering or he has short term memory loss because I recall that just a few days ago his holiday message to the nation included predictions of a painful winter, severe health consequences, overwhelmed hospitals, and oh yes, we're all gonna die.
Or is this another dividing the nation message? Only for the vaccinated, perhaps? He's still going to pursue federal mandates and predictions of severe illness and death for the unvaccinated?
"Old people sometimes have trouble climbing down from things and it's not nice to make fun of them for not remembering stuff." Words to live by, good little kitten! We really need to give President Brandon a hand in climbing down from his high horse and keep reminding him about how this country is supposed to work.
Governors should not be able to establish mandates where there is no scientific evidence to back up them up. Unfortunately our current leadership is not in a position to do that. It is ridiculous that one state can have vaccine passports, when we know the vaccine does not prevent transmission, while another has none. Some people can move but others for a multitude of reasons cannot.
Brandon is simply saying he has no clue what to do, and Fauci's recommendations would only create greater political problems for the Dems. It is Fauci who would prevent the unvaxxed from flying domestically something never before tried in this country that I know of. Imagine the lawsuits and rancor that would cause all reflecting badly on the current administration. No. This is simply an admission that he is does not know what to do.
If he were smart enough, he would have Fauci announce a crash program approving known covid early treatment protocols. Those who want to be jabbed and jabbed and jabbed and jabbed have that option. But if you prefer no jabs or maybe only two jabs early treatments will be encouraged instead of disparaged.
While I am glad to hear this. I fear shifting responsibility to the states will empower governors like Pritzker to become more authoritarian. I hope not. Illinois, especially Chicagoland, is especially miserable.
Now he's trying to offload responsibility to the governors since he's figured out the hard way that nobody can control what they think/wish they could with such highly mutable airborne respiratory viruses. Something the true "experts" and not the government and media "experts" have been saying since day one. But he won't cancel his federal vaxx mandates now, will he?
I don’t trust this. Not sure why; I can’t put my finger on it, but something seems off about how a puppet like Biden will advocate and mandate all kinds of ridiculous covid tyranny for months on end, then suddenly make a complete non-sequitur statement like this. It doesn’t add up and seems like another deliberately confusing ruse designed to soften resistance.
Umm... we knew what it takes to "save lives, protect people and keep schools and businesses open" hundreds of years before last year Brandon, (and the rest of you monsters in politics that have done nothing but assist in the destruction of humanity), and *none* of what we knew was right was anything you despots did. We see you now. Never again.
""This is not like March of 2020, the beginning of the pandemic. [WHEN MY PREDECESSOR HAD TO DEAL WITH THIS AND WE CRITICIZED AND CONTRADICTED EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING HE SAID AND DID] We're prepared and we know what it takes to save lives, protect people and keep schools and businesses open,"
Diversionary tactic. Vaxists never speak the truth. The opposite of what they say is more likely the truth. On second thought… since Brandon apparently babbled this, it is more likely that he misread what they put in front of him. It probably said, “… there is always a federal solution”.
I want to be relieved, but I also can’t help but read this as a veiled offer of payola to states that comply and a threat to withhold funding from those that don’t. The old carrot and stick routine 🥕🏒
New Jersey, New York, Michigan, California, Pennsylvania, Connecticut. Vermont, Illinois, Wisconsin, etc etc etc. True there is no federal solution. There is no state solution, either, with wacko leftist states that think "freedom" is a quaint anachronism. The only solution is one that SCOTUS has refused to provide, which is to review and strike down laws and decrees that violate any part of the Bill of Rights of the Constitution.
I think of Fauci as one of Santa’s failed elf’s. He started in Santa’s wood shop because he heard there would be needles. When he learned the needles were just pine needles he requested a transfer. Unwittingly, Santa could only find a use for him in putting together the Health and Safety program for present distribution. He successfully lobbied Santa for needles in every present for all kids… naughty AND nice, no exemptions. Next step will be to vaccinate all reindeer too.
Brownshirts subsidizing the brownshirting to the states that will kowtow, have fun competing and going broke to all the woke states not doing substantially observably better than states not doing the fascist shit y'all is doing.
"Even though the highly infectious Omicron does not seem to be highly virulent, there can be no doubt that continued mass vaccination campaigns that will soon use updated boosters against Omicron are at high risk of provoking ADE and will thereby dramatically enhance the incidence of severe disease in vaccinees"...from Dr. Geert... remember, there is a full press propaganda effort, the likes we have never seen and thus
mass hypnosis has occurred.. it's up to us to break through the blindness with compassion and courage
My wife and I were talking a few months ago on what the govt. could do, or would be likely to do, in order to get out of the corner it’s backed into. We said then that the government would never apologize, that what would be likely to happen is that they start rolling back all the mandates and restrictions with minimal commentary. Given Biden’s comments and the CDC rolling back restrictions, I wonder if that’s the case, but I really doubt it.
What Biden said goes against everything progs believe about the world. Govt is their answer for everything.
I think what’s more likely, is that Biden’s signaling to state government to do things the Federal Government cannot. E.g in case OSHA rule is struck down by SCOTUS. Inslee in WA has said he’s watching what happens there and I’m sure he’s goin to cook something up in case the mandate is overruled.
Possibly Biden’s getting ready to shift blame now that fully injected are testing positive in high numbers.
There are remaining “federal solutions” IF the boosters work. There is a lot that Biden could still do to ram more boosters down our throats.
Given how mild omicron is, they wouldn’t even need to last long before victory could be declared. (Heck, a sane person would have already declared victory).
This, plus both Biden and Psaki falling over themselves to give Trump credit for the vaccines tells me the CDC probably has some really bad data.
Biden may have said the solution for Covid is at the state level (to absolve himself at the federal level), but he's still pushing the OSHA vaccine mandate and you can count on it that if Covid deaths go down, Biden will take credit.
I love to see it but at the same time I'm not expecting the System to take this lying down. They have their agenda and they're sticking to it. I'm expecting something foul will befall America shortly. A new virus? War in Ukraine? Civil war? Terrorist briefcase bomb? Dire times approach.
Lol like the cdc now recommends shorter isolation protocols but only for the BOOSTERED. The doubly vaxxed as the dirty non vax group are now the same. Isolate equal time and run around at home with mask. 🤦♀️
It will be interesting to see how blue stat governors, especially that POS Newsom in CA now that they can’t blame the idiotic restrictions on the feds.
kitten corner: leave it to the states?
We need to start paying hospitals for every successful covid discharge, not covid deaths.
Watch how fast early treatments gain traction!!
I remember when the President was personally responsible for each and every death.
I’ll believe it when I see it because Biden’s actions condradict his words. When OSHA acquiesces, when the censorship stops, when I see honest reporting on all things Covid, then I’ll believe Biden.
We need ivermectin, Hydroxychloriquine and fluvoxamine. And stay out of the way.
It was said on another blog but there can be no federal solution, no state solution.. no group solution to INDIVIDUAL health. Individual health can and should Only be addressed by the individual (with whatever trusted support team they choose to employ)
So, I shouldn't have to wear a mask when I head into the post office later this afternoon, correct?
Me thinks he's bowing out before the SCOTUS opinion is delivered. Can't do it Joe, oh no no.
Yeah. But some of us have really rotten governors... Horrible Hochul, the animatronic tool, will not make beneficial decisions.
Seems like a trick. Is this opening the door to governors enacting their own mandates and forcing new lawsuits, given the likelihood of failure on a federal scale? Would any state mandate violate the commerce clause or otherwise unduly restrict travel? So many questions and no reason to trust them.
So the polling is finally kicking in? Too late on all fronts.
I'm still in gob-smacking awe of the idiocy that businesses and institutions have shown, putting covid jab mandates into action even before there's any law. So they will lose 1000s of great employees, and millions of dollars in losses, and then have to reverse it all? The stupidity is just astounding.
No Federal solution = No OSHA mandates + No Fauci

Politics is such an evil pursuit.
It won't be over until they remove the ban on Ivermectin and other effective drugs being used by frontline doctors. Oh yeah, and Fraud-ci needs to go.
I don’t trust this. Not sure why; I can’t put my finger on it, but something seems off about how a puppet like Biden will advocate and mandate all kinds of ridiculous covid tyranny for months on end, then suddenly make a complete non-sequitur statement like this.

And what about the Federal mandates? Cancel them then, you old baboon! (no offense to baboons).
New Jersey, New York, Michigan, California, Pennsylvania, Connecticut. Vermont, Illinois, Wisconsin, etc etc etc. True there is no federal solution.

Stop picking on Old People…..to only hope you slowly slide into that category before the deadly mRNA injection gets you.

Perhaps this is truly the beginning of the end of this shit show. A step in the right direction for sure.
Hopefully the Supreme Court heard that.
Brownshirts subsidizing the brownshirting to the states that will kowtow, have fun competing and going broke to all the woke states not doing substantially observably better than states not doing the fascist shit y'all is doing.
4th and long. Time to punt.

Genius....he probably had a clear moment for once....don't worry...it won't last LOL!

You made it, USA! damn I hope Europe will follow ... we keep pushing
Can the Governors not ask for his head?
There are remaining “federal solutions” IF the boosters work. There is a lot that Biden could still do to ram more boosters down our throats.

Somebody handed his own soiled Depends to him.
Now the states can look like assholes if they reduce your rights.
Biden may have said the solution for Covid is at the state level (to absolve himself at the federal level), but he's still pushing the OSHA vaccine mandate and you can count on it that if Covid deaths go down, Biden will take credit.
The minute Brandon agrees with the GOP we know we’re in trouble. There’s more to this.
I love to see it but at the same time I'm not expecting the System to take this lying down. They have their agenda and they're sticking to it. I'm expecting something foul will befall America shortly. A new virus? War in Ukraine? Civil war? Terrorist briefcase bomb? Dire times approach.
Lol like the cdc now recommends shorter isolation protocols but only for the BOOSTERED. The doubly vaxxed as the dirty non vax group are now the same. Isolate equal time and run around at home with mask. 🤦♀️
Then stop with the federal mandates, Dickhead (I’m talking to Biden here)
honestly tho very happy he's taking this approach and not going for some sort of crazy federal vax mandate!
It will be interesting to see how blue stat governors, especially that POS Newsom in CA now that they can’t blame the idiotic restrictions on the feds.
Translation: Bend over
Truth!
