WASHINGTON—Promising to assist nations that lack the bargaining power to negotiate with drug manufacturers, President Joe Biden issued assurances Monday that the United States would donate Covid vaccinations to impoverished countries as soon as officials had finished inoculating all of America’s trees. “We want our friends in developing nations to know that, once we’ve reached herd immunity among our trees, you will be the beneficiaries of any doses that remain,” Biden said during a press conference, admitting that a slow rollout meant vaccines had arrived too late to prevent plant deaths in many ailing U.S. forest preserves and national parks. “Some of our redwoods and giant sequoias are hundreds, even thousands, of years old, making them incredibly vulnerable to a virus that targets the elderly. We also of course want to vaccinate any shrubs, mosses, woodland creatures, and insect pollinators vital to our forest ecosystems. But after that, we will definitely, definitely commit to an equitable distribution of vaccine supplies throughout the world.” At press time, administration officials had walked back Biden’s statement, a concession to suburban voters clamoring for their lawns and flower beds to be vaccinated immediately.

Just give it away? What about our flowers? Are you going to ignore our shrubs? Suppose my petunias sneeze on my neighbor ,then what? You politicians make me so mad I could squeeze a grape! ( but I won’t cause I’m afraid of the purple plague).

Tired of real life imitating your headlines, huh? Dreamt this one up thinking 'Okay now this one literally CAN'T become real', didn't you? You're really fucking with fate here.

Also after 4weeks of the trees that refuse the jab and bark about it.

High fever is a covid symptom, so maybe we need to treat the earth for covid to stop global warming? 🤷‍♂️

Try a JohnsonJohnson on that old oak tree.

Due to climate change, it's really for the best.

', fuck you. 'The U.S. has donated approximately 140 million dose to at least 93 countries'

my lawn's on 3rd booster

In all fairness, all Biden has to do is tell the Trump Cult he’sgoing to give their vaccines to the Middle East and black people and they’ll be queuing in their thousands to get vaccinated.

As long as we get all our apes and felines done first, I say then we can help out a few other countries

never misses...

The funny part is the U.S. is sending all the less effective vaccine we don't want to other countries.

Unfortunately, millions of trees will die unless we can pass another 2 Trillion dollar Covid relief bill so we can spend 5% on the trees. “There is unrest with the forest, there is trouble with the trees.”

'But 20% of your citizens are dumb enough to drink bleach,' said 103 Billion humans living in impoverished nations in unison.

This would be funny if it wasn't true...

Thankfully Melania had ordered all trees to be cut down so there aren’t many inoculate.

Be fast with it👍

Groot's years of honing his lobbying skills finally paid off
