'The president is a trusted voice': Deputy press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre insists we don't need COVID briefings because of Biden's press conferences
Daily Mail ^

Posted on 07/30/2021 8:58:12 PM PDT by algore

The White House on Friday argued it did not need to have a briefing from COVID experts amid changing face mask guidelines because President Joe Biden, a 'trusted voice,' was speaking about the matter.

'I would argue that we had the President of the United States speak to this yesterday, he gave more than 30 minute speech about where we are as a country, and he is a trusted voice, he's the leader of our country.

We heard from him,' White House deputy press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said when asked why the country wasn't hearing from medical experts at this time.

The confusion comes as the White House COVID team - consisting of adviser Jeffrey Zients, Dr. Anthony Fauci, and CDC Director Rochelle Walensky - have not briefed the public in over a week. Their last briefing was July 22nd.

The trio have made individual appearances in the media and Walensky held a press conference on Tuesday, the day the CDC changed its mask guidelines to ask those fully-vaccinated in high infection areas to wear face masks again.

Jean-Pierre argued the health experts are out there: 'We have had our doctors on your networks,' she told the press.

'They've been out there. They're not hiding. They're actually speaking to this almost every day,' she noted.

He did not know what his mother looked like, He walked right by her.

He came to a kitten. 'Are you my mother?' he said to the kitten. The kitten just looked and looked It did not say a thing

trust the media?

Tucker had the following story - which was picked up by virtually all the FakeNewsMSM with variations of “Children’s Mercy in Kansas City hits capacity as COVID cases continue rising in metro”. Tucker said the hospital disputed the reports and said they were not at capacity and the children in ICU beds were in there for respiratory illnesses, unrelated to covid.

here’s local Fox piece beating up the same story, altho it may have improved with the update:

updated 26 July: Fox4KC: Children’s Mercy Hospital at full capacity as COVID-19, other illnesses bring more kids in
by Regan Porter
More children are requiring ICU-level care than there are beds and staff at Children’s Mercy, Pahud said on the University of Kansas Health System’s Facebook Live.

She said there are two reasons for that:

An increase in COVID-19 cases among children.
Other respiratory viruses they see in the summer and winter are circulating.
“All the respiratory viruses that we didn’t see for a year while we were in quarantine, we’re seeing now,” Pahud said...

As of Friday at Children’s Mercy, nearly 5,500 kids have tested positive for COVID-19, and seven were in the hospital.

On Monday, that number went up to 10...

I remember that cartoon. I’m pretty sure the Great Mel Blanc did the voices. The Baby Bird looked like a chubby version of Tweety Bird. He asked every animal he met
“Are You My Mother”? They just stared at him like “WTF?”

I have to wonder how much these people drink just to forget about all the bullsh*t and lies they spew.

Some of the stuff that comes out of their mouths is getting more and more insane as the days go by.

Here’s one for FR…..

Nephew is a fireman/emt …. A friend of his tests positive for covid …. Gives it to her father, mother and sister ….. father is having the toughest time with it …. Everyone else is feeling ok, more or less.

One big, gigantic guess what the treatment regimen is for the deadliest virus on the planet, the one that is going to force into lockdowns again, the one that is going to mandate masks that Fauci said are useless…..

Pedialyte and Ibuprofren

He’s not concerned about anything. He has no idea where he is.

He’s there to spew the nonsense and take the blame.
