JoeBiden POTUS KamalaHarris CNN I thought a new administration would stop the deaths, curb transmission and employ stricter measures to ensure protocols are followed. Instead after inherited all the hard work of the past administration to make vaccine available...NOTHING NEW

Yet, we are opening our boarders and letting thousands in and putting everyone in danger. Shame on this administration for such lack of vision.

Joe Biden says he is working on a plane that flies 21,000 miles per hour. I knew they had an alien spacecraft!!!! catturd2 TuckerCarlson seanhannity greggutfeld JesseBWatters SenTedCruz RepMattGaetz Jim_Jordan

😷

Well I'm fully vaxxed, so I am done with Covid19.

His only campaign to look like a President.

It’s over. Get a grip.

Great comment. Except the question was, 'why is MLB moving to Denver'?.

TeamPelosi The 50% of Republicans who believe they are invincible and don't require immunization also seems like a factor.

Let me be Earnest with you POTUS JoeBiden we are at the Finish Line with listening to this dribble you be peddling on 'still-have a-lot-of-work to-do.' We are not in a 'life & death race against the virus' That is a load of BULL$H!T 💩 & you need to tone your BULL$H!T 💩 down!'

President Biden ! . . Continue the fight !... you are on the right track !... ... Never give up ! The common sense people and God are with you !

Stop, let people decide for themselves how they want to live their lives and what risks they are willing to take. Enough is enough. I feel bad for anyone that actually follows these directives from this admin and their hand selected “scientists” without any diversity of opinion.

It would be a shame to catch the virus, while vaccinations are occurring. How tragic.

Plandemic and it’s the Flu. Underlying health issues and obesity is the leading cause of deaths. The death rate for COVID-19 only is what Wake up people

Trying to Distract us from the border disaster criminals are being let in stop with the Covid talk and get to the border no one wants to hear it anymore covid we all no about covid But we don’t know about the criminals that are coming in from the border

It’s a free country! Most people will do the right thing! Others won’t! You can’t control anyone! It is what it is!

Maybe the end isn’t in sight for the virus but it is for you.

We are POTUS JoeBiden FLOTUS DrBiden CDCDirector CDCgov DrLeanaWen drsanjaygupta CNN Texas GovAbbott opened up 100%! Rangers game almost sold out! 🥶😬😂

Lol no

Then close the border until you have any plan

TeamPelosi Can't believe one word that comes out of Biden's mouth. Can only understand half of what he says anyway.

Keep everyone in fear so everyone continues to “comply”

TeamPelosi Joe is good but he cannot Cure stupid.

TeamPelosi Ignored by all...

TeamPelosi what about student loan forgiveness

Roll up your sleeve. Avoid large crowds. Mask up. Act like your child's life depended on it. It does.

加油美国人,拿事实证明你自己。

So Biden choose to open our borders to ensure the continuing spread of the virus 🦠then turns around to blame the AMERICAN PEOPLE! Not to mention allowing terrorist access to our country!

👍

Well, how much you all are parading the vaccine around as if it is a God and can cure the Virus then that’s what your followers will believe. Flying without being vaccinated clearly allows Americans to see that being vaccinated is a cure.

Not as easy as you thought Joe

ABC your a JOKE.

🤮😂

Fight the good fight. Mask up. Stop the killer. We can do this.

You are his father.

🤣😂🤣 🤡

There still trillions and trillions of dollars we can milk out this,,,,we are not done yet!!!! let me be earnest with you!

But at least the flu was cured

Grandpa would fight 4 us with nail n teeth I mean dentures Donated by Steve mnuchen

Why doesn’t he close the boarders then?

Fake President Fake Fear I'll pass Joe

Bla bla bla. Move on

Creepy Joe is clueless.

It is a seasonal virus. Even the shot only has 6 mo. Antibody. Good lord, save us from our stupidity. 🙏

The fear is gone Joe for those who actually believed the govts BS to begin with, its time to get back to life. Get over yourself. Gas prices are 1.30 more than he day you came into office. Can you fix that please?

Oh the virus is so bad we have millions of cases but deaths are dropping drastically its to the point the news won't show covid deaths no more now its vaccine count you sheep are stupid its not that bad if deaths are going down because cases mean nothing death is what matters

Hell yeah, there’s plenty more fear to push, money to me made off this once in a lifetime crisis. No Rookie here, been waiting 47 years for this cherry! ................

Pls keep your mask on

people gotta stop acting stupid. get the vaccines and keep wearing a mask and this virus is gone

Check out😋😋😋😋😋😋

No we’re not.

That old fuck doesn't even know what he's talking about. Cammel toe will be president within 2 years.

The virus is spreading because they won't do a federal lockdown and pay people to stay home. Stop blaming regular people for the results of poor leadership.

Too bad he’s untrustworthy

The reason can't be you're failing with your message and you're failing with the rollout and Logistics with the vaccine. What a joke of a president we have, continue with the lies in the misleading!

Mortality rates from countries that never locked down or instituted mask mandates imply there was never a life and death race to begin with, only a bad flu season.

Tell him to STFU.

Why nobody is talking about this

If your faith in god is strong enough inside of your Heart mind and soul then god will work with you as you leading your country forward with the spirit of god, Aman

POTUS tell it to GregAbbott_TX GovRonDeSantis Stop the cruel lockdowns, mask mandate, and other worthless, just feel good initiatives with no health benefits.

Almost 3 months in office

In my country there many people still believes that virus isn’t deadly.. our current projection according IHME is many will die over here yet

Nonsense. Time to move forward.

That’s serious

You can lead horse to the water but you can’t make him drink

Guys give him a chance to prove himself...... Its a day job to settle things up

Sleepy Joe chinese puppet 💩😏

Keep sending the checks joe

170k died since his inauguration. he promised effective measures but did nothing. where is '150m vaccinations in first 100 days'?

Bet you can't name a single CovidVaccine that is FDA Approved

So very true he speaks the truth he listens to the science and not ignore them

BS this is the every year flu bug. You just call it Corona virus to get the vaccine out. Some of us are not stupid.

'So we must do the best for the battle..'

JoeBiden's killed 163,180 Americans as of 4/06. SpeakerPelosi has murdered 555,608 as House Speaker!

portraitwilde He's telling the truth. Americans are too weak, too stupid, and too mean to act properly.

Hope you didn’t blow your wad.

I think seven more years do we have that much stimulus

first time i agree with him this virus aint over folks the new variants are ramping up.

Sleepy 😴🥱 JOE.

Joe Biden certainly is Mr Negative

Control control

He is so right

He’s about a month behind

140000 dead people on biden watch cause he ignored science like trump

You aint makin me call off my mud pit party mr. Notmypresident.

'starting to feel like there's not enough fear around here'

Mr. Unity Speaks......and since he has already alienated 40-50% of the Country... they don't hear him.

Majority of the people do NOT know that Joe was a great speaker.

Shut up old man

TheView 👍

FU!! None of that poison is going into me!!!

I'm 53 wearforce

TheView I don’t understand President Biden, Colorado has voter ID and a lot less days than Georgia does so there are a lot more suppressive and racist than the state of Georgia’s new laws, why aren’t you yelling at them, there are laws are worse yet they got the MLB Game ?

Being eligible and having accessibility to a vaccine are two different things.

DenverChannel But where is the vaccine?

genemurphy This is how its done!!!

President Biden is at least taking action on the covid front, unlike the other ex taking on the front 9!

TheView You've done a fantastic job!! Trump tried to sabatoge you doing this vaccine, helping the American people with this vaccine you blew it out of the water. I'm receiving my 2nd shot on the 16th,and that's saying so much.I've preexisting condition's,and OSU was worried not anymore.

What a waste of money

The TANZANITE BRIDGE DAR ES SALAAM TANZÂNIA Across the sea!

Ok

I total disagree with her on “no federal vaccinations database.” Yes, there is Federal Vaccinations Database.

TheView SHE KINDA LOOKS LIKE A ROBOT BUT ID TAKE HER OVER SARAH HUCKABUCK OR KATLIN MACARONI ANY DAY !!

jambie61 I think we should have an electronic vaccination card. Harder to duplicate and definitely a way to keep more people alive. Freedom from a card doesn’t mean much if you’re dead.

So, that means there will be one after she 'Get back with us' on this one! 😆🤣😂 Besides, she also said they were NOT over packing these border facilities, that Trump shut down, with kids; but, we see nothing but kids stacked on top of each other! Yep, I believe her!! 😆 Not!

RobertFife Imagine having a credible news source in Canada. Wow..!

If you bail out the airlines... they are now federal government arms.

That's good because I was saying fuck that shot anyhow lol. Anybody even notice the size of them goddam needles?

Fox Fable!

Was there a Polio passport, a flu passport? No so why should there be one for this? The Fed gov can't mandate anyone to take it or not take it outside government services or the military

As long as she doesn’t circle back 🇺🇸

If there are going to be like a dozen systems, and it's going to be required to show status, then how is it not going to be a mess when it needs to be checked? And paper vaccination cards without encrypted data can be photocopied; so it may become nearly meaningless.

That's a missed opportunity.

So there will be one you just won’t know about it .

Capitalism will handle it.

This cookie doll gets an ugly face whenever it lies

Good luck travelling outside the USA. Once again the usa takes the lead with irresponsible policy. I hope they don't question why they are super spreaders and variant enablers.

That's good to hear. Although, the 'private sectors' still want to go through with possible Covid passports.

Back to normal!

since it was a controversy entirely made up by right wing news this is no surprise

DO they even care about our safety disappointed

That's when Trump told us we would have it in September of 2020?

For his next trick, Biden will call an end to winter

Why would anyone trust the US Government

we need to allow 16 and over to vaccinate without parents permission.

Thank you President Trump!

This is not helpful when there is already not enough vaccine supply.

Lol he’s not “calling” anything. States are way ahead of him

Damn,this guy knows how to get things done!! Certainly the right president at the right time! 🇺🇸 Biden

What a garbage headline. Particularly bec States ALREADY doing this: AK, AZ, AL, CA, CO, CT, DE, FL, GA, ID, IN, KS, KY, LA, ME, MD, MA, MI, MN, MI, MO, MT, NE, NV, NH, NY, NC, ND, OH, OK, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VT, VA, WA, WV, WI, and WY

Efficiency , competence , professionalism - finally after 4 years of darkness. I like it. A lot

Biden Just keeps poking himself into what states are doing or about to do as if he has any power to influence what they do or don’t do. Just playing to the gallery. These guys play pathetic politics.

Nice

Thanks for the vaccine Trump
