Biden Administration Approves First Operation Fly Formula Mission
The White House ^ | May 19, 2022 | White House press release

Posted on 05/20/2022 5:59:50 AM PDT by Texas Fossil

Today, the Department of Defense (DOD) is sourcing the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA)’s request for Operation Fly Formula to transport Nestlé S.A. formula from Zurich, Switzerland to Plainfield, Indiana. DOD is actively working the request to identify commercial aircraft.

The Operation Fly Formula shipments will transport the equivalent of up to 1.5 million 8-ounce bottles of three formulas—Alfamino® Infant, Alfamino® Junior, and Gerber Good Start® Extensive HA—all of which are hypoallergenic formulas for children with cow’s milk protein allergy. These formulas have been prioritized because they serve a critical medical purpose and are in short supply in the United States because of the Abbott Sturgis plant closure. These shipments will include approximately 246 pallets.

President Biden launched Operation Fly Formula to speed up the import of infant formula and start getting more formula to stores as soon as possible. Under Operation Fly Formula, USDA and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) are authorized to use DOD-contracted commercial aircraft to pick up overseas infant formula that meets U.S. health and safety standards, so it can get to store shelves faster. In addition, President Biden has directed his Administration to take a number of other important actions to ensure there is enough safe infant formula for families, including invoking the Defense Production Act, entering into a consent agreement between the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to reopen Abbott Nutrition’s Sturgis facility, and issuing FDA guidance to allow major formula manufacturers to safely import formula that is not currently being produced for the U.S. market.

Just like the oil and gas industry. The Democrats wrecked it and then pay the countries that actually hate us to save their sorry asses.

No mention of how many days it will take. They don’t call him Slow Joe for nothing.

(the first ever emergency food shipments from international relief agencies to help feed American citizens)

Third world status, now.

A slide 14 years in the making.

Along with W putting illegals ahead of American workers.

Third-world countries go begging to first-world countries for necessities. So this is just more evidence that we have become a third-world country.

This should have been done one day after the FDA shut down the largest baby formula production facility in the U.S.

The federal government is not functioning under Biden.

It is no accident.

They did this intentionally to punish Red States more.

Our 'Leaders' are 'governing' us so well that we cannot now feed
our own children. The former 'Breadbasket of the World'
has become a third world country in need of foreign aid.

From the lowest unemployment in US history under Trump -
to third world status in a couple of years under Biden.
The powers that be have decided to utterly transform and
destroy the United States - and impoverish us all.

And I predict that the lazy, deluded American citizens
will sit idly by as they are outright killed by the treasonous,
murdering A-Holes who have taken over the US government.

The patriotic American people are almost completely neutered
and nearly powerless - and are slated for liquidation.

I hope I am wrong, but it appears that we are slowly being killed, folks.
Just watch.

Here’re some questions: Are these the formulas that are in highest demand? Is this a different company? Who stands to gain from this company getting the press? My cynicism meter is pegged this morning since all my old conspiracy theories have come true.

Your observations are correct.

But I assure you they will not force that on my part of the world.

I told a congressman staffer yesterday that the blood will be running in the streets before Texas is subjected to this nonsense.

He seemed to understand what I told him.

I had call his office 2 weeks ago about the WHO power grab. I called him yesterday to follow up on my request for them to research it.

The letter I got back was mealy mouthed.

They still don’t know how angry the public is. Even some of the tattooed on the butt Donkey’s know this is a disaster.

Some of them are turning and opposing the #ComDem_Krazies.

Once the plane lands, wonder what Joe’s distribution plan looks like. If he has one.

I don’t know.

But yes, the ComDems support their benefactors.
