Baby formula debacle - further proof we would not have had a viable vaccine available as quickly under this Administration.
There's no way that factory should have been shut that long, especially considering they did not find 1 baby that actually got sick from the contaminant. Yes, it need to be stopped, shut down and investigated. But, they knew back in October this was the problem it was going to cause. Proper urgency was not given.
The same FDA process here would have made the Vaccine take its typical 4 years development time.
You elected a lifelong bureaucrat, and that's exactly what we got.
You don't get to take a victory lap only partially solving a problem that you created by ignoring an easy to see cause.
nonsense. but also, maybe we wouldn't have as many deaths if the previous admin hadn't played it down and lied to the public about it.

And let his minions spread lies about it, rather than call them out. This led to unnecessary polarization and more deaths.
But hey, it helped ad revenue for the right wing media sphere.

Dumb questions from a guy (me) who has worked with kids, help raise nephew who were past infancy, but never had kids of my own: Why is there so much widespread need for baby formula? Is breast feeding that uncommon today?
My wife had to stop taking her arthritis medication to breast feed. So she did it for a few weeks before getting back on and switching to the bottle.
My brother and his wife adopted 2 girls from infancy, took them home from the hospital when they were days old. They long-term fostered others as well. She obviously was unable to breast feed. There are lots of reasons why. There’s some a stigma unfortunately, I’ve overheard parents at parks criticizing formula, almost like it’s due to laziness or something. But there’s lots of valid reasons why.
Breastfeeding is an important intervention not just for the health of the baby but also the mother as well. Unfortunately, breasfeeding rates in the USA are lower than almost all other high-income countries, probably due to the completely inadequate maternity leave provisions for most jobs, often requiring women to return to work by the time the baby is 6 weeks old. There are other reasons as well, including lack of widespread support for breastfeeding, but that's probably the major one.
One thing to remember about the formula shortage, though, it that it isn't just a shortage of regular formula for healthy term infants, it also includes shortages of a wide range of specialty formulas for infants and young children with various medical conditions that require specialized diets. Often these formulas need to be given beyond infancy into the toddler and preschooler years because the child can't absorb nutrients from other foods, and in many cases would not have been able to absorb nutrients from breastmilk either.
my small self... like a book amongst the many on a shelf
Damn you Brandon! Too bad Jarrod Dear Boy wasn’t around to warehouse the stuff at Mar-I-Lieo or Bedministerinher to generate some more family revenue, right?
Australian goat’s milk is coming.
In an all-hands-on-deck multiagency push, infant formula is being corralled from all parts of the globe as part of Operation Fly Formula.
On Friday afternoon, the Food and Drug Administration announced Australian company Bubs will send 27.5 million eight-ounce bottles of a variety of infant formulas, from “easy-digest” goat’s milk to organic grass-fed cow’s milk and specialty formulas like Bubs Supreme A2 beta-casein protein. Some of this product is in stock and ready for transport, while some will be produced in the coming weeks and months.
The imports come as Washington scrambles to respond a shortage of baby formula that has left shelves bare and parents struggling to find food for infants and children with special dietary needs. The FDA has been sharply criticized for failing to head off the shortage.
At the same time, Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra invoked the Defense Production Act for a third time in less than a week, this time to ensure agribusiness giant Cargill, the United States’ largest privately held company, will prioritize delivering raw materials to infant formula manufacturers over other food companies.
Operation Fly Formula’s principal logistic control comes out of HHS, with daily communication with the White House, FDA, Agriculture Department, Defense Department and other agencies. According to HHS officials, the first priority is to identify specialty formulas for infants and others with rare metabolic disorders, product that will primarily be distributed, once stateside, through medical channels like children’s hospitals and pediatricians’ offices. The agency is prioritizing products from English-speaking countries to minimize how much relabeling and repackaging must be done.
Anyone see 2000 mules yet? I know I’m looking forward to it!
haha
And the same people who paid to see that garbage are complaining about the price of gas and consumables right now.
i'm gonna make a documentary about the people that actually paid to see it in a theater called "2000 fools, or the people that actually believe in this shit enough to spend money on it".

The guy who made the movie was found guilty for violating campaign finance laws. Trump fucking pardoned him in 2018. lol. But suuure, this guy is telling you the real story the mainstream media won't! These people have no shame.
I watched a clip of Dinesh on Anderson Cooper from a while back and Dinesh claims that, yes, while he did something illegal, he was maliciously targeted by the Obama administration because of being a prominent conservative voice. LOL
It's just amazing to me how many people are brainwashed by right wing media. They will just blurt out the most ridiculous shit with complete confidence that what they are saying is the truth. And there is no convincing them otherwise.

I'm 100% certain that if Trump was president today you all would be saying nothing bad about trump and it's all just global influence that he lack any control over. /s

I'm sure there would be plenty of things to blame trump for if he were in office. I think most of us know that gas prices ain't one of em.

I'm certain of that as well. I would still be blaming him for downplaying the coronavirus.
But I'm curious...what argument would you see me making that would suggest tRump could lower US gas prices?

I wouldn't be blaming him for gas prices or inflation that's happening literally all over the world though, because that's just fucking stupid.

100% untrue. There are actually people out here who are rational and not overtly political on every single topic.
Bush was not to blame for the 2008 financial crisis, as an example. He did not handle it particularly well personally, but the Fed actually did and I was a huge supporter of TARP.

Perhaps a few. But the majority would be in a very different place. Just my opinion.

You're damn right I'd be critical because POOTWH and his den of thieves would be seeking ways to personally benefit from the shitshow of inflation and not be putting 'Muricans first. Plus, guaranteed there'd be long winded rambling statements from POOTWH that would make absolutely no sense, be full of exaggerated hand motions and amount to nothing more than a word salad of BS and blame, maybe with a piece of paper drawn from his inside suit jacket pocket and waved around as supposed evidence of something.
Don't worry, POOTWH will back soon to fix everything Brandon has fucked up.
We are totally screwed for the mid terms - no doubt we lose the house and senate. This won't happen, but the only way to save 2024 is do what Clinton did and admit where things went wrong and come towards the middle. Clinton did an amazing job is damage control and therefore saved 96 for the Dems. It's the crazy far left 5% of our party that is killing us as this is what the press and the right is exploiting (and the majority of Americans are against). We need to get back to the party we were in the middle left and not make everything a fuck Trump issue - he isn't president and wont be again.

Where did things go wrong?
Describe the middle, like where is it on any issue, you choose?
What are the majority of ‘Muricans against?
POOTWH may very well not only run but be re-elected and regardless, POOTWHism will be elected in 2024 and with all three branches of ‘Gubmint, welcome to fascist ‘Murica.
And yes, we are totally screwed in the midterms. I look forward to the Brandon Administration ignoring subpoenas and stonewalling investigations while filing lawsuits and then BLM and ANTIIIIIIIIIIIIIIFA defending the Capitol and Brandon’s House.
