White House officials are reportedly preparing to ask Congress for tens of billions of dollars in additional COVID-19 aid.

The funding plan hasn’t been finalized but is likely to focus on COVID therapeutics — such as an antiviral pill — and ramping up vaccine distribution, sources told the Washington Post on Friday.

While this phony virus epidemic continues with billions in funding, the Social Security fund is scheduled to drop to zero by 2028. No politician wants to reduce funding for Social Security or they will be voted out of office. So this virus crisis is a proxy for a new unstated policy of eliminating as many elderly as possible in the interim.

People keep forgetting that the gov’t doesn’t “have” money. All it can do is take it from one group (productive tax payers) and spend it in a way that they think will get them re-elected (often unproductive, non-taxpaying, people).

Damn straight. Federal government shut down today due to about 2, maybe 3 inches of snow. Roads are all clear, but they shut the whole freaking thing down again, twice now in the past two weeks. For nothing ...seriously NOTHING. Yet everyone is out, lined up at Starbucks, ChikfilA ...having a grand old time.

These damn socialist/commies just never stop. I don't even call them liberals anymore.

And now they want to look at therapeutics after the big fail of the "vaccines"? So does that mean that Biteme is going to relinquish his control of the monoclonal antibody treatment he just instilled nation-wide? I was astounded when he did that. Florida is now having problems securing such therapy after DeSantis showed it was working. WTF?

Biteme, Fauxi, CDC, NIH and all their handlers have 10's of thousands of deaths on their hands.

This is BS! The money will be used for welfare/unemployment to keep the sheep docile and continually unemployed and dependent on the largess of the Gov!

Now on top of all the other bills we tax payers are laying out for the free loaders here in NC we are now paying for peoples water use bills via the DHHS.

NYS was billions in the red before CoupFlu hit.

Now we’re rolling in dough.

Federal taxpayers, you need your heads examined letting Deep State get away with this crap.
