I’m sure we’ve all noted that the Credentialed Media is no longer letting us know about COVID related deaths and infections to the degree they were before January 20th. The news is not a lead thing on television, and bottom of the page/page 2 news in the papers. Because it totally wasn’t used as a political tool, right? And it is just so inconvenient for Joe (who wouldn’t have been elected without it)
The Memo: Biden faces risks as COVID optimism stalls
The wave of optimism that followed the approval of the first COVID-19 vaccines is receding — and that could spell trouble for President Biden.
Let’s not forget which president spearheaded the operation to get the vaccines in record time. His name ain’t China Joe.
U.S. deaths from the virus hit 80,000 in January, making it the nation’s deadliest month. And new strains are worrying scientists, including a mutation emanating from the United Kingdom that is more contagious, and potentially more deadly, than those previously seen.
On Wednesday, the new head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Dr. Rochelle Walensky, said total U.S. deaths from the virus will hit around 500,000 on Feb. 20 based on the current trajectory. More than 425,000 people have died so far.
There have also been problems with the rollout of vaccinations, with state-level officials complaining that they are not getting clarity on how many shots will be available at any given time.
While the new administration has been in power for just one week and cannot reasonably be blamed for many of the current issues, the problems are reverberating in the economy — posing a sizable political risk to Biden.
Joe said he Had A Plan
(NY Post) A few days ago, President Biden gave a speech on the “American Rescue Plan.â€Â In it, he admitted “the crisis is only deepening. It’s not getting better; it’s deepening.†He also finally stated that “there’s nothing we can do to change the trajectory of the pandemic in the next several months.†So no magic plan.
Over and over again his campaign told us they were ready from the jump to fix things.
Now that @JoeBiden is in office, apparently that’s changed.

If you say you have a plan, you should have a plan. Joe has no plan
The Dow Jones Industrial Average and the broader-based S&P 500 each fell by more than 2 percent on Wednesday, the latter having its worst day since October, as the Federal Reserve left interest rates near zero.
Retail sales have been below expectations for the past two months. The latest monthly employment report showed the nation experienced a net job loss for the first time in eight months in December.
Any further deterioration could sap Biden’s political capital with abrupt speed.
Well, the market probably doesn’t appreciate the job and capital killing policies of China Joe. But, this is all just so bothersome for Joe’s agenda of implementing Modern Socialism. He’s pretty good at killing jobs, not so good at doing anything other than more of the same when it comes to COVID.
Will the same media blast Joe for not really doing anything, especially when the economy starts going down?
Good thing Trump didn’t wait until after the election to create and distribute a vaccine.
Yesterday the big news going around the MSM media was oh the humanity that we have new strains of the virus that are very alarming and even more deadly..
Lock downs and persecutions will have to continue….
at the tail end of each report from choose your network was…
Oh and by the way the vaccines work against these new strains….mumbled the press as jets roared in the background.
In other words….AUTHORITARIAN and UNCONSTITUTIONAL EVENTS will continue and you will STFU if you don’t like it.
THE RIGHT JOINS ANTIFA IN STORMING a public meeting in PORTLAND where they were locked out by HIGH STEPPING LEFTIST COPS…
The cops were then Bear Sprayed by Righty Protestors.
The left wants civil war. Yesterday Texas put before congress the right to secede form the Union.
In Washington State half of The state is trying to secede from the state and that half is very conservative and being lorded over by a crazy leftist Seattle,Tacoma area of the state. They do not want to join Idaho, they want to be their own state Called PATRIOT.
Talks are underway for half of California to secede from the state as well.
All across the nation states west of the Mississippi are talking of secession. And not just blue states. Talks rage in Colorado where most of the state is RED with the exception of the DENVER area which overwhelms the rest of the state in votes.
Don’t believe me Elwood? Total REPS from Colorado. 4 Republicans. 2 Populists and 1 democrat. The democrat is from the Denver area. Its like this all over the land.
Big urban cities squelch the voices of 99 percent of the state. Yes we are land of majority vote but as the democrats always bemoan in losing the electoral vote but winning the national vote the right is starting to adopt the same position. All states are now unfairly represented on both sides of the aisle.
Excitable Russia TEACH keeps typing: “I’m sure we’ve all noted that the Credentialed Media is no longer letting us know about COVID related deaths and infections to the degree they were before January 20th.”
Covid leads every news report. Haven’t you been hearing about vaccines, new variants and masks?
I was talking with a conservative colleague this morning who complained about the media continually overhyping the pandemic.

Remember your predictions that it would magically disappear on Nov 4? And then on Jan 21? Yet, here it still is.
A cancer has metastasized throughout the once respected GOP. Trump is but a severe symptom of the cancer. As long as the cowardly GOP is dominated by the likes of Cruz, Jordan, Marjorie Greene, Matt Gaetz, McCarthy, Lindsey Graham, Rand Paul, Mitch, Ron Johnson, Tom Cotton, Gosar… not to mention loons such as Hannity, Limbaugh, Levin, Lou Dobbs, Ingraham and the Mother Tucker… it will continue to wane.
My gawd, 56% of Republicans believe QAnon!!
