Brandon Hastily and Dramatically Assembles His Covid Team to Announce... We're Still Doing All the Stupid Shit We're Already Doing, Nothing That Happens Will Ever Change Our Policies

Covid: The Graveyard of Bureaucrat Nightmares.

Four blue state governors -- apparently the only ones who matter (That's Science!) -- announced ends to statewide masking mandates. (They'll continue allowing Karen Kounties to impose the mandates in accordance with Prevailing Local Karen Hysteria Levels.)

Even Noted Unmasked Bandit Kathy Hochul will allow her draconian mask mandate to expire, at least as regards businesses for sextugenarian adults such as herself. She'll continue imposing it on schools, because she doesn't go to schools so he doesn't care, and also, because she's a Fucking Witch.

Given this, Brandon now looks weak. Well, I mean-- weak-er than he has looked. He's not leading; governors even of his own party are now just ignoring his "leadership."

So he's convened this panel of Undisputed Experts, including Rachel Walensky and Anthony Fauci, to try to pretend he's in charge again.

The Memo: Biden caught between CDC and Democratic governors on COVID-19

(c) Associated Press/Alex Brandon

President Biden is being put in a difficult spot on COVID-19 -- and this time he can thank Democratic-led states for the conundrum.

Four states, all of which have Democratic governors, have announced in recent days that they are going to lift mask mandates for schools. Separately, deep-blue California is going to end its policy of requiring vaccinated people to mask while indoors next week.

But the Biden administration has promised to follow the guidance of scientists, specifically those at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The CDC has not yet issued any change to its guidance on masking.

That leaves Biden in a bind.

The White House risks looking overly cautious on restrictions if it sticks with the status quo -- a dangerous political position in a nation that has grown frustrated and restless after two years of pandemic restrictions.

On the other hand, the White House doesn't want to sound an all-clear that turns out to be premature.

It knows how dangerous that can be.

The article notes Brandon's "Mission Accomplished" moment in May, when he prematurely declared victory over covid.

Though... that's the progressive view. I don't think it was premature. We should have ended all the Mask and Mandate Theater then. We should have ended them, in fact, before they began. They don't work, they never have worked, there is literally not a single study showing that they work, and we're all sick of living lives of pantomime just to reassure hysterical, mentally-ill Karens.

But Brandon doesn't want to ever give the go to end Mask and Mandate Theater.


As to whether or when the administration's position would change, Psaki responded: "You'll have to ask the CDC. The CDC moves at the pace of data and science."

Even public health experts understand the political dilemma that the president and his aides are in.

"I think there is a huge political risk to the CDC and the White House," Lawrence Gostin, a Georgetown University professor and expert on global health law, told this column.

At least they're thinking about public health and science first, right?

(Thanks to golfman for catching that.)

"Already you are seeing a large swath of public opinion opposing CDC 'dictating' mandates. They see the case numbers plummeting and they see Democratic governors lifting mandates. There is enormous political peril for the White House."

Yet, at the same time, Gostin and others in public health understand the need to tread warily. The professor said that he believes it is premature to make sweeping changes to mandates, whether for children or the population at large.

In other words, the same people who urged these useless and in fact harmful policies do not want to end these useless and in fact harmful policies.

Why that doesn't sound anything like the Centralized State Planning I know!!!

...

"If I were a governor I'd say, 'We are really optimistic that all of these trappings of the pandemic that are affecting your life and have made you unhappy for so long are going to be lifted. But not until we have assurances that the case rate is going to go down and stay low, the hospitals are going to be at normal capacity and we are going to have effective life-saving treatments widely available. Just hold on,' " he said.

The problem, for governors and perhaps for the president too, is that "just hold on" may no longer be a sellable political message.

But that is exactly what Brandon's Trio of Imbeciles did: They said "Just Hold On, and Just Keeping Doing Everything We've Been Telling You to Do For Two Fucking Years Already."

They actually called a snap press conference to tell you to... get boosted.

And then to claim that Brandon's "covid plan is working."

It's working so well we'll have to continue wearing masks into the foreseeable future.

We'll have plenty of vaccinations for the population which has practically zero risk from covid:

WH #COVID19 Response Tm & public-health officials presser: (WH COVID-19 Response Coord #JeffZients -- taking Qs) Says re: vax for kids under 5: There is enough vax supply for shots to go into arms once vax gets gov't approval.

I saw a video -- maybe it was a clip of Tucker, Gutfeld, or Watters -- where the guy said, covid is a disease that is deadly for the very old and very fat, and our political leadership class happens to be both of those, so our political leadership class decided to impose the most draconian lockdowns on us, and five year old children, to protect themselves.

True.

There may be hope, some day.

41 The evil, John Wayne Gacy forced masking of children is nothing but revenge by the odious teachers' unions and school boards. They are stupid and lazy and don't want to work. They also have unreasonably high opinions of themselves. They think they are entitled to stay home forever with the "remote learning" bullshit. When they were finally forced to actually do their jobs, they took their rage out on the kids. "Well, if I have to come to work, then I'm going to punish and inflict pain on your children as revenge." There is literally nothing more to it than that.

57 "President Biden is being put in a difficult spot on COVID-19 -- and this time he can thank Democratic-led states for the conundrum."

=========

His entire problem with covid is Democrat created.

Its his own party's fault that he didn't simply declare covid done in the first six months of his presidency. The party organs should have just fallen in line with the attempt in May, but they didn't. They held onto covid like a security blanket and pumped up Delta as the worst thing ever.

Republicans moved on. Democrats stayed behind. The idea that Biden will ever be able to convincingly declare victory over covid (never mind the fact that he doesn't seem to want to) is silly. If the media hadn't spent 20 years destroying their credibility with the public (going into overdrive starting in 2015 with the rise of Trump and then heading over the cliff in 2019 with covid), then they could potentially persuade the people of Biden's victory no matter what.

They can't. There's a reason Biden's numbers are in the 30s according to RCP, and it's not because the media still works.

58 They have plenty of reasons to keep up the charade, and only two reasons not to.

Pro (in their mind)
Their base wants it; it gives them emergency powers; it causes chaos which helps them destroy US institutions; it allows a clear visual confirmation of us vs them, whenever they punish a non-masker, it hurts their enemy and encourages their base; it focuses their base's anger against a clear foe; they get to pretend they're pro-science, which furthers their narrative; they're bureaucrats and lawyers, who are anti-risk to a fault, masks keep up the pretense they're in control, and they get to point to a clear reason they've failed: wreckers

Con
The opponents are mobilizing and winning. The polls must be looking horrendous for Leanna Wen CCP babykiller to go out and advise against them. They don't work.

They are reacting to data that is over a month old, that"s how huge bureaucracies operate. They don't "act", they "react" and by the time that filters it's way through the system it's way too late for their plan to have any effect on the situation because the situation has changed.

If the CDC claimed tomorrow that the best defense against CV19 was to scoop up dogshit and put it inside your mask, these people would do it.

I live in Manhattan. Nearly everyone walking around OUTSIDE, by themselves, is wearing a fucking mask. I would say close to 90%. There is no outdoor mask mandate. These obedient sheep are wearing the masks because they WANT to. They are cowards, afraid, and will do whatever they are told to do. This shit will never end.

145 We should have ended all the Mask and Mandate Theater then. We should have ended them, in fact, before they began. They don't work, they never have worked, there is literally not a single study showing that they work
***

The only study claiming masks work was that AZ study that was commissioned by the school teachers union, and that study was sloppy bullshit and has been repeatedly debunked. One of the many errors in it was the fact that they counted something like 40 AZ "schools" that weren't actual schools -- they were correspondence schools or "virtual learning" centers that had no actual campus or in-person students, but hey masks worked great in those non-existent school buildings that no students ever actually attended!

And there are numerous scientifically-valid studies that have shown that masks provide close to ZERO protection from the virus, at enormous cost to children's language and social development.

But the "party of science" and the "we follow the science" types ignore the independent scientific studies that were competently performed, and instead continually refer to the error-riddled, scientifically-debunked, politically-motivated, garbage AZ study.

Actuaries. I'd like to see the entire epidemiology and pandemic/epidemic response bureaucracies dismantled. If a major new disease happens (or an old one resurfaces), ask the insurance companies to lend the government their best actuaries. If the insurers won't do so, then draft them. Pay them 300% each of their blended average earnings for the prior three years.

Let people who not only know how to do math and analyze large-scale population data, but people who have proven track records doing so respond ad-hoc to such crises in the future. The dedicated professionals have demonstrated that they aren't capable.

300 It's easy to see what "treading carefully" and "premature" easing of mandates are all about. Lifting restrictions hurts Big Pharma's stock prices and one can bet that Big Gov and its allies are heavily invested in Big Pharma shares. Lifting restrictions gives aid and comfort to the Election Reform movement - banning or attenuating mail-in balloting and ballot harvesting. That hurts Dems mightily and the Left wants to drag the stinking carcass that is the Wuhan Flu power grab over the mid-term elections finish line.

thousands, and in some instance hundreds of thousands in dollars to 1) declare the person had covid even when they did not, 2) put them ICU "for covid", 3) use Remdesiver 4) always mark a death as covid

the more you obey, the money will flow your way

my brother just told me a story of someone he knew - husband recently died in a car crash - hospital puts cause of death covid on the death certificate, she had to fight them, not sure if it's over, to change the lie

We are seeing doctors, nurses, admins all lying for the almighty $. It's incredible. The hospitals are raking in the dough...

Yeah, I used to like NYC. Only for a few days at a time, but it *was* a fun town. Now? It sure looks to be a real drag, these days. In fact, with their COVID policy, I'm having a difficult time even understanding why anyone lives there.

Seems like they removed all the coolness, and left behind a gigantic city where its really expensive to do anything, and you can't do much. It should be empty by now. But whatever, it's the Big Apple, and I guess that's all that matters to people who live there.

312 But it does actually give us a piece of information we didn't have before: the administration itself is firmly controlled by the "COVID Forever" faction of the Complex, and that faction understands that it needs to respond to the increasingly-powerful "COVID Is Over" faction, but is utterly unable to do so effectively. The "Forever" faction is on the downswing in power but is controlling executive policy, which means that Brandon's handlers are now all firmly in that camp.

Have you noticed that all of a sudden over the past month or so, we're seeing articles about Hunter Biden, about the admin's fuck ups in Afghanistan, etc.? Not a coincidence. I fully believe that's one side trying to undermine Biden and his supporters in the WH.

It's not so much that they want him gone, although they no doubt do, but that they want the COVID forever faction gone, and a full housecleaning will likely require Biden to resign first.

HHS said it includes things like mouth guards and rubber bands (for heat dissipation) to help prevent physical injury from glass pipes. Glass pipes are usually crack pipes (or speed). Whether they actually issue the pipes is I suppose in question, but it is explicitly the associated paraphernalia.

So, if the Ottawa cops took the diesel illegally have filled the portable tanks half full of water, where did they dump the diesel to make room? On the ground?

Because there is a massive shortage of gas cans in Canada right now, they couldn't go out and buy any to save the fuel.

Isn't dumping a huge amount of fuel on the ground a felony? It is in the US.

Example: What if a car full of kids cuts off the truck and the truck has to decide between smashing that car or trying to avoid it, with a high likelihood of smashing into a bus full of kids?
Posted by: bonhomme at February 09, 2022 12:49 PM (8/9Tc)


It is nowhere "mostly solved". All systems to date, in normal driving situations, would produce fatalities at a rate of 1/hour. The whole hype over self-driving AIs is just hype. There is no autonomous system that can handle movement around people driving. They do it in simulations and they are constantly having catastrophic failures. They only work when all other vehicles are also centrally controlled and your autonomy is forbidden. It's so ridiculous how unfamiliar people are with the state of the art.

As of yesterday, 844,948 confirmed cases and 11,547 deaths (no clear definition of whether from/with) for a mortality rate of 1.37%. And we probably have one of the highest rates of comorbidities in the nation.

It stratifies by age group as well. In the 0-10 group, we've had 2 deaths in 99,447 cases.

Yup. The politburo is ruling, but nobody rules the politburo.

You can get away with rule by committee during good times. It won't work well, but you'll survive it. Rule by committee during not-good times is a disaster because the constant empire building, competing influence networks, backstabbing and betrayal, shifting alliances, etc. - all the shit that's endemic in committee management of large organizations - immediately causes catastrophic failure.

This is, by the way, what I think happened (essentially) with Afghanistan policy and withdrawal. Nobody was in charge of it, and various politburo members were using their own networks and own intelligence and pursuing their own goals and there was no integration or strategic direction.

452 Sept 13 (Reuters) - A group of Stanford University professors has asked the Justice Department to stop looking for Chinese spies at U.S. universities, joining an effort by human rights groups to end a Trump administration program they said caused racial profiling and was terrorizing some scientists.

We can't look at China's spy program, but Garland can snoop on Louis Gohmert's emails? What is Garland looking for "covid misinformation" or imaginary nazis? The fact that Jussie Trudeau used the nazi slur, is amazingly offensive. Referring to covid schizophrenic lockdowns as "fascist" is excoriated in the press as an insult to the victims of the 1940s, but it's A-OK to call the Ottawa truckers "nazis". disgusting

right, and they claim it is only one in a million that are "fully vaxxed" that die from Covid. (but if they died within 2 weeks of the jab, they were not "fully vaxxed"?)

Last I saw there was like 35% reduction in symptoms/death for the vaxxed, and even in the best of times (early) it was maybe 70%. But this little graphic claims much more than that (98% effective? ... not sure how they did that math)

All those systems constantly have a "safety driver" switching it off and taking control. In other words, they are as autonomous as your car that parks itself. You put it into a specific mode in a controlled situation and for a short time it actuates and does something. Vehicles cannot navigate in a system with other vehicles driven by people without you being there to keep them from killing people. And the frequency of your involvement range from infrequently for long hull tractors in the artic to once every 10 seconds in a crowded urban environment.

And now everything that's come out makes me doubt the reliability of their advice, not so much that they are unreliable but that the information on which they rely is unreliable.

Posted by: alexthechick
===========
I got the J&J after having a very bad time with Covid in January 2021. That is because I have autoimmune issues with subsidiary problems from that and was advised by my doctor's team to do so. A couple of days after my shot, the FDA pulled J&J due to clotting issues. About two months after the vaxx, got a severe flare of my condition that lasted most of summer 2021. Now, I am recovering from a new Covid infection from January 2022.

There's a window of 7 days to treat Covid using the meds that Congress has used for themselves, but forbids for citizens. A relative had to get Ivermectin online for a huge price when they got the Covid...and *of course* this person was vaxxed.

514 That graph re: death rate by vax status is a lie. They're playing three games:

- Jab isn't "fully jabbed" until 2-3 weeks post-shot
- Jabbed isn't "fully jabbed and unboosted" *after you pass the period where you're expected to get boosted, because you are now "unvaxxed" again*!
- Jabbed and fully boosted.... isn't, until 2-3 weeks post-booster, again.

What the real data tells us is that the OVERWHELMING majority of COVID deaths and hospitalizations are within the first 2 weeks after the shot - jab or booster, either - and then pick back up a little bit 3+ months past the last shot.

These assholes need a fucking firing squad. They KNOW they are lying. And it's been demonstrated pretty conclusively that the formulas used to determine safety from the VAERS reports have been cheesed to do exactly the opposite.
