President Biden scoffed at a Senate-passed bill to end the coronavirus national emergency, calling the Republican attempt a 'reckless and costly mistake.'

The bill to terminate the declaration under the National Emergencies Act passed the Senate 48-47, with three Democrats and two Republicans absent from the vote. The national emergency was first enacted in March 2020 under President Trump.

The White House said that if the bill were to reach the president's desk. It said that the national emergency declaration is needed for 'ensuring that necessary supplies are promptly available to respond to the virus and facilitating the delivery of health care.'

In the Senate every Republican voted for the bill to end the national emergency. Every Democrat voted against it. There was one more Republican than Democrat present that day. In the Senate they must be present to vote. Even though the Republicans know that this bill will never get through the house and signed by Biden, they need to bring up bills like this every day.

Make the Democrats vote. Get them on the record for campaign ads.

Hey give Joe a break. He probably hasn’t been able to get his Green New Deal Police force ready to go yet. I heard a rumor that he has picked AOC to head up that police force and has given her power to execute people that don’t obey his commands.

Translation: “The emergency is over but I intend to hold on to the power.”

The senate dems voted against the resolution. In other words, the senate dems want the covid emergency to continue. They’re suicidal.

<>Senate Dems to Joe: “We’re going to get shellacked in November. PLEASE end the emergency!”<>

A few sentences down in the column, Schumer supports extension of Emergency powers.
