Chaos in the White House over COVID messaging: Biden advisor Jeff Zients insists they are NOT exploring national vaccine mandates 'at all' - after president said it is 'still a question'

The White House is struggling with its messaging on COVID vaccines after President Joe Biden said his administration is exploring a mandate but an adviser quickly walked that back.

-snip-

Biden said on Thursday it was still 'a question' as to whether a national vaccine mandate would be legal but said the Justice Department was looking into it.

'I had asked the Justice Department to determine whether that is -- they're able to do that legally, and they can. Local communities can do that. Local businesses can do that. It's still a question whether the federal government can mandate the whole country. I don't know that yet,' he said.

But Zients went on CNN later that night to clarify the matter. He said the DoJ wasn't exploring a national mandate but whether employers can mandate the vaccine.

'That's not an authority that we're exploring at all. But I think what the president was referring to is his Justice Department has said that it is legal for employers to require vaccination,' he said.

The messaging and confusion comes as more data is to be released on Friday to explain why the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reissued its mask policy.

An internal federal health document obtained by The Washington Post claimed that the Delta variant was as infectious as chickenpox or Ebola - with each infected person passing the virus to eight or nine others, on average. That infectivity is known as R0.

The original lineage was about as transmissible as the common cold, with each infected person passing it to about two others, on average.

Walensky said that the new data coming out on Friday showed that vaccinated people infected with the Delta variant carry tremendous amounts of the virus in the nose and throat.

Mandate was nixed because of bad polling with Black Democrat voters.

That's why Dementia Joe and the RAT governors are moving on to RAT state lockdowns starting in mid-August.

Polling says Black Democrat voters want to be locked down, not vaxxed.

They’re falling all over themselves trying to figure out how to inject everyone and implement mandates. That’s why all the inconsistencies and double talk.

From my perspective, the wheels are coming off this White House.

This is typical in any organization where no one is in charge.

The situation is that the Dementia Joe Administration know that millions of vaxxed RATS in RAT Cities and States are going to be infected with DeltaRona in the fall and winter.

And they are in a panic since the RAT sheep were promised that the vaxes would be a miracle shield against the Rona.

Wonder if the White House read the research article published in 2005 by Fauci’s NIH that found Hydroxichlorine to be equal to a vaccine at preventing Covid infection and very effective treatment as well. Since then, Fauci/NIH lied and many thousands died.

RAT governors are the ones that will bring back the lockdowns.

Lots of RAT polling going on as well as trial balloons since GOP governors won’t lock down again.

Also, RAT teachers unions are demanding lockdowns before the new school year starts.

I've never seen an "Administration" that has ABSOLUTELY no idea what it's doing, or what it's supposed to do. But here it is.

Stolen things are cursed.

I think that this “administration” is supposed to be a trainwreck that doesn’t complete its term.

This is the “burning it all down” step, and those that want to be in charge don’t necessarily want their names on it.

I wonder if the military will have to step in to control the madness coming out of the WH and the Thief in Command.

Who ever is running the White House, do they know what the HE.. they are doing! or maybe they do. Complete chaos in order to destroy the US. Hate to see where we are in another month, let alone 2 months. 2022 elections will be a miracle if we make that long.
