... "Joe Biden hobbled over to his creepy fake White House set today, loaded up some fake snow in his fake windows, and then set out to insult everyone’s intelligence.
He trashed the unvaccinated, falsely claimed we can test our way out of the pandemic, and had several mental breakdowns, with the appearance of Biden’s senility just being expected at this point.
In short, to the extent that the president said anything intelligible at all, ... it was a repetition of prior statements that are largely outdated and no longer supported by the data we currently have regarding the coronavirus.
... his continued insistence that we are in a “pandemic of the unvaccinated” was probably the best example.
... BIDEN:
"There is no excuse for anyone
being unvaccinated.
This continues to be a pandemic
of the unvaccinated."

That’s just laughably untrue.
In fact, one of our editors here is fully vaccinated and currently has COVID-19.
Further, one look at New York’s record-breaking case numbers will show you that the vaccinated are clearly getting the coronavirus at extremely high rates.
Even if you want to assume Biden is talking about hospitalizations, the vaccinated represent nearly a quarter of those, too, based on reporting out of Miami.
Major Miami-area hospital network reporting
who is a covid hospital patient:
* 50% are incidental "with" covid
(not there because of COVID)
That’s not to say that those in certain risk categories don’t have a higher chance of hospitalization or death if they remain unvaccinated,
but it is to say that calling this a “pandemic of the unvaccinated” is just patently false.
Clearly, the data shows that the vaccinated are also not only spreading COVID but that they represent a majority of infections at this point.
They also represent a not-insignificant portion of hospitalizations.
In light of that, Biden’s divisive attempt to continue to blame everything on the unvaccinated has crossed into the realm of being outright slanderous.
... in January of 2022 ... we know that everyone spreads COVID and that the unvaccinated do not pose a unique risk to the vaccinated.
Further, his comments on controlling the virus and his insistence that testing will somehow make a difference harken back to March of 2020.
Oddly enough, Biden seems to actually think it is 2020.
BIDEN:
“Schools can and should be open this winter;
we have all the tools to keep kids safe.
… There’s a lot of reason to be hopeful in 2020.
But for God’s sake, please take advantage
of what’s available. Please.
You’re going to save lives,
maybe yours, maybe your child’s."

When you put all this stupidity together, what you are left with is a president who adheres to a series of quasi-religious tenants about COVID that have largely been proven false.
... there is simply no reason to be testing asymptomatic children as a prerequisite for attending school.
Doing so is wasteful and pointless.
It simply serves to spread fear and panic where it is not warranted, as case numbers are just not that relevant at this point.
The risks for children also continue to be largely non-existent.
... Biden still refuses to acknowledge the existence of natural immunity when discussing the much-maligned unvaccinated.
Even Dr. Anthony Fauci reluctantly admitted its efficacy last weekend while discussing South Africa’s speedy victory over Omicron.
But that’s apparently a bridge too far for Biden, who relishes in trashing the unvaccinated; facts need not apply.
Honestly, I’m left wondering which one of Biden’s handlers thinks it’s a good idea to keep trotting him out to repeat all these same, outdated falsehoods.
What exactly is being accomplished with these awkward appearances?
It’s certainly not helping his approval ratings, and in the end, he’s only creating more distrust in the government’s response."
