‘This is unacceptable’: Biden’s baby formula forum is CLOSED to the press

President Joe Biden will meet with manufacturers today to discuss the baby formula shortage, but it’s closed to the press. So much for democracy dies in darkness:

Correction – @JoeBiden WILL hold a @whitehouse event on the baby formula shortage. There will be NO COVERAGE of the event. Press corps will get a read out in a press call after the event.

— John Roberts (@johnrobertsFox) May 12, 2022

“Sorry moms, the president doesn’t feel like talking to you about the baby formula shortage today”:

Sorry moms, the president doesn't feel like talking to you about the baby formula shortage today. https://t.co/Q0q4JnxhHs

— Kelsey Bolar (Harkness) (@kelseybolar) May 12, 2022

It *IS* unacceptable:

This is unacceptable. The President needs to communicate directly with the public on this critical issue.

— Laura G (@LaurasMiscMovie) May 12, 2022

Sen. Josh Hawley isn’t amused:

Sure. Because the American people don’t need to hear about the baby formula shortage – that’s the Biden line https://t.co/Sz6lNlQC7o

— Josh Hawley (@HawleyMO) May 12, 2022

But did he pinky swear?

Biden's plan for tackling the massive nationwide baby formula shortage is holding an event nobody will see, then putting out a piece of paper SWEARING they're doing something about it.

I don't think that comes as much comfort to desperate parents. https://t.co/c3OBxzjbaZ

— Jake Schneider (@jacobkschneider) May 12, 2022

And then the regime stenographers will dutifully report what’s on this piece of paper:

Absurd. And the broadcast network newscasts (and probably CNN and MSNBC) will totally just report tonight whatever Biden says like they work for Jen Psaki instead of publicly raise hell over this https://t.co/4Qc0vCM3eD

— Curtis Houck (@CurtisHouck) May 12, 2022

Well, we expect it’s because it’s afraid there are no concrete steps these companies can take to rapidly increase the supply:

That’s peculiar, even for JRB.

— Suz Carragher (@TheRedDogInn) May 12, 2022

And then, of course, he doesn’t have to take questions this way:

That's one way to avoid answering questions.

— Darla (@DarlaDene) May 12, 2022

What a coward:

This is the first time the president is speaking on the nationwide baby formula shortage and he's not allowing press in the room https://t.co/UyTBUResMx

What is so “top secret” about baby formula? Could it be Ukraine, Afghani “immigrants” and the southern border babies?

For people who want abortion so bad, I really am confused? The democrats have the same goals on energy sanctions on Americans to reduce our carbon footprint, so limiting baby formula access achieves their same goals on population growth and abortion. If your policy is to destroy a fossil based fuels society by limiting access to such fuels, then limiting formula for babies makes perfect sense in Demo-World.

Closed to the press, because the truth of why there’s a shortage is appalling to the American people and the blame lies directly at the feet of the Biden administration’s anti-American policies with co-conspirators on both sides of the aisle with our RINOs aiding and abetting.

Kinda reminds me of Jimmy Carter’s last year. Every day it was something different.

They can’t kill enough babies with abortion, so they will starve them to death................

This what happens when Abortion quotas are in trouble. The Dem’s are doing this because they hate life, babies, families and the middle class.

Most of ‘the press’ would do and say whatever Biden’s thugs want them to do or say... I guess Biden’s thugs are worried FoxNews might show up.

He doesn’t want the Press to know that he is not going to be in the baby formula meeting himself. His handlers have him in the sidebar meeting on adult diaper shortages.

This takes not leaving your children in the room with someone you can’t trust to a whole new level.

Top secret baby formula talks - leave it to Brandon.

The real reason is that it might highlight the government ineptitude and frankly, Brandon probably won’t lead the conversation because of his dementia and it would be odd to have his staff running the show, which occurs behind the curtains.

BIDEN PROMISED TRANSPARENCY

"On President Joe Biden's first day in office, White House press secretary Jen Psaki pledged
that the administration would "bring transparency and truth back to government."

Does anyone not see any dots to connect on the SCOTUS leak on abortion and the institutional shortage of infant formula? I do. But I believe in Bigfoot as well.

He’s probably going to ask them to step up production because we’re falling behind on formula shipments to Ukraine and the border.
