1- Welp, this warrants some commentary (thread follows).

TL;DR - Bullshitting is easy, governing is hard. Biden is good the 1st and bad at the 2nd.

washingtonpost.com/politics/biden…
2- "In June, ..promised that rising inflation was just “transitory.”

"In July,..Biden declared that “the virus is on the run.”

"And in August,..“the president continues to believe that it is not inevitable that the Taliban take over” Afghanistan."

Even Wapo sees the pattern.
3- "But just in the past week, inflation hit a 31-year high as prices rose 6.2 percent over a year ago, coronavirus cases are ticking up again and the United States announced that Qatar will serve as its diplomatic proxy in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan.."

Quite the record.
4- "But mixed messaging from the White House, some Democrats argue, has undermined its credibility and set confusing expectations for Americans."

"confusing" lol. How about "completely failed to meet any expectations"? Biden's freshmen year is a "F".
5- "But the administration has repeatedly had false starts in branding big legislative priorities.."

Therein lies the problem. There was no mandate for "big legislative priorities". All Biden had to do was not f*** up what Trump had in place, but that was a bridge too far.
6- "The White House says the president will lead an aggressive effort to sell his economic agenda, including robust travel from Biden and Cabinet officials and a media blitz."

Yeah, sure, that will fix it. Good luck.
7- "Privately, many administration officials and allies contend that the state of affairs cannot get worse, thinking that Biden and the Democrats have hit their floor in negative approval ratings,.."

Lol, sure. Just wait until COVID gets worse.
8- When CNN does a hit piece on Kamala and Wapo says the Administration can't fix anything, you know it's bad.

1- “Dr. Alex Huffman .. told Denver7 Monday that while vaccines are a really important strategy in fighting the pandemic, they are not enough at this point to curb the spread of the disease..”

Welp, there’s the quiet part out loud (cont).

thedenverchannel.com/news/coronavir…
2- Huffman: “There's no question that getting a vaccination and increasing the percentage of people in the state that are vaccinated is a really, really important piece of the puzzle, but we can't vaccinate our way out of the pandemic.”

Gosh, if only others had said this.
3- Lol, paraphrasing:

Journo: “SO YOU’RE TELLING ME WE’LL NEVER GET BACK TO NORMAL?!”

Huffman: “Yes” Image

1- “As of last June, the number of small businesses in Colorado had declined by over 40% during the pandemic.”

This was a feature of the lockdowns, not a bug (cont).

denvergazette.com/opinion/editor…
2- “..most Colorado K-12 students suffered setbacks in their academic achievement — idled at home by remote learning amid COVID — the impact was far more pronounced on low-income students and students of color.”

Dems did the lockdowns, fwiw.
3- “The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated already-rising overdose rates in the state, with “an outsized effect on minority groups” — notably Hispanic and Black Coloradans.”

COVID-19 didn’t do this, the idiotic lockdowns did.

1- For those wondering what happened to the Reddit posts, r/CovidVaccinated has fizzled. I suspect because of combination of more aggressive moderators removing posts + regular readers have seen enough to draw conclusions. Once or twice a day the usual stuff still pops up (cont).
2- Also r/VaccineDiscussion was quarantined so that was that.

r/COVID19Positive is still fertile, with dozens of posts every day describing breakthrough infections. Some are fortunate teller posts (“I surely would be dead without the vax”), others have genuine buyer’s remorse.
3- The breakthrough case posts are so abundant now that it would be impossible to post them all. Suffice it to say these are nowhere near “extremely rare “.

Thread.

1- "..to treat the matter as..one violation of protocols, rather than dock the team draft picks and sanction Rodgers himself more seriously, was ridiculed throughout the industry."

No, it was ridiculed in woke Media. Everyone else doesn't care.

cbssports.com/nfl/news/team-…
2- At this point, the woke Media is madder at the @NFL than they are Aaron Rodgers.

They wanted Aaron Rodgers canceled because he didn't want to discuss with them his vaccination status.👇🏽

Worth noting Aaron Rodgers never lied to the Packers or the leauge, just the Media.
3- Rodgers' only violation was he didn't abide by their idiotic mask protocol, that has nothing to do with science and everything to do with shaming players who don't bend the knee.

This article must be threaded.

1- "Now the herd is restless..."

"The prospects for meeting a clear herd-immunity target are “very complicated,” said Dr. Jefferson Jones, a medical officer on the CDC’s COVID-19 Epidemiology Task Force."

The herd is restless lol.
2 -"Recent evidence has also made clear that the immunity provided by vaccines can wane in a matter of months."

"The result is that even if vaccination were universal, the coronavirus would probably continue to spread."

If only anyone had predicted this..🤦🏽‍♂️
3- "To Dr. Oliver Brooks, a member of the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, it was a sobering new message, with potentially worrisome effects."

Mostly worrisome because it means Brandon was always full of shit.

1- "In addition, the Pfizer vaccines were not evaluated for preventing infection, but rather symptomatic or severe disease and death. And when it comes to these statistics, the vaccines – at least for now – seem to be doing their job."

Flat-out lie (cont).
2- Big Pharma ran trials on efficacy - i.e. preventing infection. They never ran trials on anything else. The sold their drugs to the world based on this.
3- Here's Dr Frankenvirus in May, confidently stating the vaccines are a "dead end" for COVID.
