Biden won’t take questions, launches new mask push 2 years into COVID

White House reporters peppered President Biden with questions about COVID-19 on Thursday after he announced a new push for people to wear face masks nearly two years into the pandemic — but Biden chose not to answer any of them.

In scripted remarks from the White House-adjacent Eisenhower Executive Office Building, the president — who spoke with his back to the press pool — announced a plan to distribute free high-quality masks, the wearing of which he said would be a “patriotic duty” for Americans in response to record-high numbers of COVID cases caused by the Omicron variant.

“One would think reporters would be mad as hell”

Oh no, Trump never had the vending machines refilled and the press stayed perpetually in a state of delusional madness over it.

The Biden Administration on the other hand keeps the vending machines stocked full and probably added a few more vending machines for more sugary treats and sugary drinks for their guests at the Press briefings. It’s the least a good host would do for the model propagandists.

He will probably require a proof of “vaccination” to receive the free masks.

All the sheeple walking on the streets, riding bikes by themselves, riding in cars by themselves, hiking trails by themselves.

One of our local grocery stores (local family owned) got fined last year because a bunch of their employees caught it. The local health people claimed their break room wasn’t safe enough. The funny thing is the store had put in place the toughest standards anywhere around here — people wiping down all the carts after use, long line to get into the store, limited number of shoppers, one-way aisles, people forcing you to get hand-spritz before you enter, masks, one line for people waiting to check out, huge plexiglas screens between checker lanes, etc, etc. With all these customer precautions, it’s hard to believe that their EMPLOYEEs became a cluster. So the health gestapo decided to make an example out of them. Fortunately, the fine wasn’t huge (I think $15,000), but, given the low margins in groceries, it was probably a big chunk of their profits.

I pity the business owners who get screwed by this.

Muzzle update from NYS. Looks like people started wondering why NYS was handing our the ChiCom knock-offs like candy when they aren't authorized in the US for use in healthcare settings....
