'This is what America Last looks like!' GOP Rep. fumes at 'pallets' of baby formula being sent to border centers for illegal migrants while American babies go without amid nationwide shortage

Republicans are sounding the alarm after discovering baby formula is being sent to border facilities while American mothers are facing empty shelves amid massive shortages.

And President Joe Biden's administration is struggling to respond, unable to reassure parents when there will be more formula on empty grocery store shelves and where they can turn to for help.

GOP Representative Kat Cammack tweeted Thursday two images, one showing full shelves of baby formula and food from a processing center at the southern border and another showing empty shelves where baby formula was supposed to be at an American grocery store.

'The first photo is from this morning at the Ursula Processing Center at the U.S. border. Shelves and pallets packed with baby formula,' Cammack wrote. 'The second is from a shelf right here at home. Formula is scarce.'

'This is what America last looks like,' she added.

Meanwhile, concerned parents are begging the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to reopen the nation's largest baby formula plant after the nationwide shortage has left their infants hungry and ill.

But the White House on Thursday defended the closure of the Abbott plant but officials couldn't say when it would reopen.

'The reason we're here is because the FDA took a step to ensure that babies were taking safe formula. There were babies who died from taking this formula so they were doing their jobs,' White House press secretary Jen Psaki said at her daily press briefing.

President Joe Biden got personally involved on Thursday when he met with executives from infant formula manufactures and retailers including Target, Walmart and Nestle's Gerber to discuss the issue.

Biden spoke with manufacturers Reckitt and Gerber about their efforts to increase production.

FReepers this shortage is serious. There are babies for one reason or another who rely on formula for survival. Either they are allergic to breast milk,their moms don't produce enough or maybe they don't have their mother anymore.

I’ll guess lots of those mothers voted for Xiden, and now they probably regret it.

Why would there be any on the shelves? Should be cleaned out.

There was no excuse to close it down as long as it’s been closed. They can sanitize that plant working around the clock, they just can’t get the FDA to inspect it so it can start up.

There ought to be a lot more “fuming” - dammit, there should be 212 Republicans in the House and 50 in the Senate fuming, making a ton of noise and publicly demanding that the supply be given to these American kids. Instead, they are following the simple-minded boob Mitch McConnell in giving another $ 46 billion to Ukraine while our children are getting sick, our young adults of all races are dying from fentanyl which comes freely across the border, and families struggle to buy even the basics, like bread. Get OFF your butts, make some noise about issues impacting Americans for a change and speak to the problems the dimwit in the White House and his supporters in the Dem party have created.

“ For too long, a small group in our nation’s capital has reaped the rewards of government while the people have borne the cost. Washington flourished, but the people did not share in its wealth. Politicians prospered, but the jobs left and the factories closed. The establishment protected itself, but not the citizens of our country. Their victories have not been your victories. Their triumphs have not been your triumphs. And while they celebrated in our nation’s capital, there was little to celebrate for struggling families all across our land.”

“That all changes. Right here. Right now.”

It's very clear the Dems have now officially adopted the policy of ethnic cleansing

I don't see us making it to the midterms before CWII starts.

"'This is what America last looks like,' she added. "

..... This statement should absolutely be used by any GOP or Conservative candidate in the Mid Term and General election .... To shove the degredation of America and all that is happening into the face of all of the Liberal People and Great Reset Policies ... To show the Contrast of the Two Parties ...... There is no such thing as a Sustained Utopian Woke Liberal Society

My former landlords new baby boy wouldn’t take his mom’s breast milk. Wouldn’t take formula or cow’s milk either. They ended up giving the little guy goat milk. THAT he loved.
Better goat milk than no milk.

Much more fun to bash Putin than it is to deal with silly issue of American women not being able to feed their babies.

You better not post that. DCF will come after them. Many states that is already illegal.

They have hearings. No one asks how or what is predicted for our food source.
Hearings on the border crossers. What else are they receiving? Cell phones. A new car?
