More proof Democrat voters have no idea what they’re voting for. – How many Democrats who voted for China Joe Potato Head Biden thought they were voting for this when the entered the voting booth?:
Yes, friends, the dementia-addled sock puppet occupying the White House reversed President Trump’s order lowering the cost of a variety of prescription medicines on Friday, including some that are crucial to millions suffering from diabetes and allergic reactions. This from the party that claims to be the advocate for healthcare in America.
From a story at Daily Wire:
President Joe Biden’s United States Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) on Thursday stopped executive orders from his predecessor designed to significantly lower prescription drug prices for Americans, including insulin and epinephrine.
The new administration will apparently re-evaluate the executive action from President Donald Trump toward the end of March. It remains unclear if it will be reinstated.
“The HHS Thursday froze the former Trump administration’s December drug policy that requires community health centers to pass on all their insulin and epinephrine discount savings to patients,” Bloomberg Law reported Thursday. “Centers that don’t pass on the savings wouldn’t qualify for federal grants.”
“This freeze is part of the Biden administration’s large-scale effort announced this week that will scrutinize the Trump administration’s health policies,” the report noted. “If the previous administration’s policies raise ‘fact, law, or policy’ concerns, the Biden HHS will delay them and consult with the Office of Management and Budget about other actions.”
A report for Bloomberg Government said the Biden administration is on a “different page” about curbing drug prices than the Trump administration, noting of the Biden team awaiting “at least a dozen lawsuits … over Trump-era moves to lower drug prices”:
[End] Yes, the Biden people are “on a different page,” i.e., they’re reversing a policy that actually worked and will replace it either with a policy that massively increases the cost of these drugs – as the cost of every drug in America increased thanks to Obamacare – or with no new policy at all. If you’re one of the dimwits who voted for Biden expecting a man who has been in government for half a century without ever making anything better for the American people to somehow now suddenly start making things better, you are the problem. Frankly, you deserve whatever misery he throws your way. But the millions of other Americans who aren’t complicit in this farce don’t deserve it, and that’s on you, too.
Remember this incident, in which Biden told a union factory worker that “I don’t work for you!”? Well, what part of that did you nitwits not understand?

Democrat voters have no idea what it is they’re voting far, Part II – The people of New Mexico are suddenly all verklempt today after the Swamp’s designated Sock Puppet signed an order last week imposing a senseless 60-day moratorium on new leasing on federal lands and waters in the United States. Seems that those New Mexico dimwit voters didn’t realize that about half of the oil and gas production in their state that pays for about half of their state government each year is produced from … wait for it … federal lands, and their state is now facing a big budget gap that will only grow larger thanks to China Joe’s demented act.
From a story at Fox Business:
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — President Joe Biden’s 60-day moratorium on new oil and natural gas leases and drilling permits is prompting widespread concerns in New Mexico, where spending on education and other public programs hinges on the industry’s success.
Top Republicans in the state as well as local leaders in communities that border the Permian Basin — one of the most productive regions in the U.S. — say any moves to make permanent the suspension would be economically devastating for the state. Half of New Mexico’s production happens on federal land and amounts to hundreds of millions of dollars in royalties each year.
Congressional members from other western states also are raising concerns, saying the ripple effects of the moratorium will hurt small businesses already struggling because of the pandemic.
“During his inauguration, President Biden spoke about bringing our nation together. Eliminating drilling on public lands will cost thousands of New Mexicans their jobs and destroy what’s left of our state’s economy,” Carlsbad Mayor Dale Janway told The Associated Press on Friday. “How does that bring us together? Environmental efforts should be fair and well-researched, not knee-jerk mandates that just hurt an already impoverished state.”
…
Steve Pearce, chairman of the state Republican Party, said drilling was beginning to pick up in New Mexico’s share of the Permian Basin because of rising oil prices. But he said he’s concerned that activity could evaporate.
“I think we’re going to see companies choosing not to invest in New Mexico and take their jobs and drilling to Texas just 3 miles away,” Pearce said. “They can just scoot across the border where they don’t have federal lands.”
[End]
Chairman Pearce, a former GOP member of congress, hits on a key part of this story that New Mexico Democrat politicians like to ignore: Texas is right next door, and Texas isn’t held hostage by half of the state being owned by the feds. The Permian Basin is a massive geographic area almost as large as the entire state of Wyoming, about 3/4ths of which lies on the Texas size of the border. The impact of Biden’s moratorium on federal leasing and his coming ban on fracking on federal lands will almost certainly result in companies focusing on drilling wells in Texas and reducing their activity in New Mexico.
Whether they realized it or not, this is what New Mexicans voted for when the went 55% for China Joe. After all, it wasn’t as if he and Kamala Harris made any secret about their intentions during the campaign. As is always the case with Democrats, they always telegraph exactly what they plan to do to you – all you have to do is pay attention to exactly what they say.
New Mexicans didn’t pay attention, and so the schools and hospitals and all sorts of programs oil and gas revenues have been delivering to them will suffer, and so will the people. Biden’s attitude about it all? “I don’t work for you.”
Tough.
That is all.
Biden proves that the best argument against democracy is a 5 minute conversation with your average voter. All people who vote for democrats should be considered your enemy.
Why would blacks vote to be replaced by migrant workers willing to work harder for less money?
Why would women vote for a Democrat that’ll cost them thousands of scholarships in sports when the men come in and take over track, soccer, etc.?
Why would any American vote for a man personally compromised by the CCP?
They didn’t.
DS/Dominion voted for them.
Why? The logical answer would be that they didn’t. But late night dumps of ballots from across state borders and a colluding media were made to create the illusion that they did.
Too bad they’re not just kicking their own asses while leaving ours alone.
Because Orange Man Bad — very, very bad!
He had to cancel those drug price reductions in order to be able to rescue everybody with Medicare for all.
I’ll keep this clean:
A sore rear end teaches a person two things:
1: You just got screwed.
2: Whether or not you’re into that kind of thing in that particular place.
Hopefully some of the people stung by this start to come around.
To me, this explains the weird “non celebratory” tone of the lefties, everywhere.
I think far more of them voted for Trump than anyone would care to admit and even those who actually did vote for Pedo Joe *know*, in the depths of their dark, evil little hearts, that it was a steal, not a win.
Only the most spiritually bereft and evil ones “celebrated” at all.
This may be merely anecdotal, but the day after the “election”, 99% of local Pedo/Ho signs vanished while the Trump signs yet remain.
It was as if, collectively, subconsciously, none of them wanted anyone else to know they were part of what had just happened.
My [former] lib best friend routinely ranted about the insane price of Epinephrine.
When Trump dropped the price wildly, she said nothing remotely “grateful”.
I wonder how she feels about her hero jacking up the cost, again?
Probably justifies it, somehow.
Huh.
Have you noticed how much the intro to that sounds like Michael Jackson - Billie Jean?
Yup. They know in their guts it was a fraudulent election. Most demoncraps are utterly corrupt, but some minority of them might still have some semblance of a conscience - or at least an awareness that any weapon used against Conservatives might one day be used against themselves.
As Pelosi once said, "Embrace the suck!".
Sorry, not sorry.
If they had called it for Trump that night, the locals would have been screaming it from the rooftops and whipping up impromptu Trump-flag festooned vehicle parades everywhere.
The next day was bizarre...dead silent.
Even people in stores that I knew were Dems, they looked like mourners at a graveside.
No one spoke a word about the night before.
They still don’t.
And all the signs in the town east of me just disappeared, as if they’d never been there at all.
Come to think of it, I’ve not seen on B/H bumper sticker anywhere, either.
But the Trump stuff has only multiplied.
“Chairman Pearce, a former GOP member of congress, hits on a key part of this story that New Mexico Democrat politicians like to ignore: Texas is right next door, and Texas isn’t held hostage by half of the state being owned by the feds. T”
Long ago, in my late teen years, I spent a summer in a town right on the border between 2 states, call them State #1 where we were and State #2, a mile away. Back then we’d have some beers in the car, but obviously wanted to get rid of the empty bottles. The penalties in State #1 were $500 for littering and State #2 were $50 for littering...big difference and a lot of money!
So, we’d carefully put the bottles back in six-pack, and then drive across the border to State #2 and lay the beers down (in State #2)...right where the sign marking the border was (and where the road changed pavements). That way, if we were caught, it was only $50.
I expect the same for TX and NM - Texas will drill horizontally West starting 100’ on their side of the border and clean out NM’s portion of Permian before NM is able to shake any marbles loose in the Junta running the country now. My advice to oil companies in Texas, other than moving fast, is to hire some damn good surveyors.
Did NM use the Dominion machines?
Why would anyone vote for a man with the middle name, Robinette?
