Sounds like “politics” to me. And I’ll give you three guesses why the repubs voted against the second bill. Funny thing is, hilarious actually, is the Dems passed the CURES Act and Obama signed it in December of 2016 and then who came along and let it languish for 4 years? I’ll give you four guesses. Then dementia Joe began implementing it immediately upon taking office but you know, Covid and a shit ton of other messes that were left behind. Hey! But they own the libs!tempo_n_groove said:

Earlier on Wednesday, Minority Whip Steve Scalise (R-La.) sent a memo to all House GOP offices recommending that members vote against the legislation. He argued that Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) brought up the bill “in hopes of covering up the administration’s ineptitude by throwing additional money at the FDA with no plan to actually fix the problem, all while failing to hold the FDA accountable.”The House on Wednesday also passed the Access to Baby Formula Act in a 414-9 vote that was largely bipartisan. Five Republicans and one Democrat did not vote.
The bill calls for permanently relaxing restrictions on the kinds of baby formula that individuals in the federal low-income assistance program for women, children and infants are allowed to purchase. The program is formally known as the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children, commonly referred to as the WIC program.
The only opposition to the legislation came from the Republican Party: the “no” votes were from Reps. Andy Biggs (Ariz.), Lauren Boebert (Colo.), Matt Gaetz (Fla.), Louie Gohmert (Texas), Paul Gosar (Ariz.), Marjorie Taylor Greene (Ga.), Clay Higgins (La.), Thomas Massie (Ky.) and Chip Roy (Texas).
There was no overlap in the two groups of GOP outlier votes.

Very much so. GOP wants smaller govt and regulations but when FDA is too small to keep up it slams current admin that isn't theirs.Halifax2TheMax said:

I'm guessing that #45 reduced the FDA staff or budget?0 -
Think about what transpired for the four years of POOTWH, the active dismantling of the “Administrative State,” through inaction, hiring people who had no business being in the position they were in, slow walking hiring and policy initiatives and refusing to carry out, enact or enforce laws passed by Congress. His first impeachment over Ukraine is an example. However, it was trickled, sprinkled and done in every aspect of the executive branch where they had authority to do it. This is this nation’s future, everything is broken, purposely, and the 1% and their puppets don’t suffer because they’re not affected. Good fucking luck.tempo_n_groove said:

Maybe there could be congressional investigations and hearings on why this is happening, formula shortage, inflation, you know, a root cause analysis and find solutions but, you know, 1/6 and one major political party not really interested in governing or helping people, unless you’re wealthy, white and “Christian.”
Good fucking luck indeed.
And, I’ll add, where does all this lead? You’re seeing it in Russia. Putin on the ritz got what he wanted without firing a shot nor getting into a hot war with the US for a few million dollars spent on bots and troll farms to flood social media and influence an election. No trillions spent on nuclear weapons or huge, well equipped and trained standing army. The US under POOTWH and his minions in 2022 and 2024 will pillage and weaken the US so it resembles Russia and not other western style democracies. Don’t think it’ll happen? Just watch CPAC meet up in Hungry this summer and wait and see. It’s already started and it’s too late to stop it.

Just to be clear when the Jamestown settlers were all killed that wasn't just Obama's fault it was also Hillary and President Joe Biden's fault.tempo_n_groove said:
Yes the whistleblower and it says the FDA didn't respond quick enough about it. That plant only closed down 3 months ago, February, like you said. I was just wondering how he comes up with a shortage for a year now?mickeyrat said:tempo_n_groove said:Question about the baby formula. Buddy of mine blames it on Biden and that this was known over a year ago that there was a shortage.
I can't find anything that says this was going on for a year now?
its in the gift article I posted. As I recall from the article, October of last year complaints by an Abbott employee were levied to FDA. They did nothing until Dec or Jan when they inspected the facility? Then in Feb after review of the inspection it was shut down and recall issued for certain batches of the potentially contaminated product.
Some people are out to lunch on Biden.

From Letter From an American:
There are other legal cases in the news today, too, having to do with foreign influence during the Trump administration. The Department of Justice filed a civil enforcement action to force Stephen A. Wynn to register under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) as a foreign agent working for China. The Justice Department says that from at least June 2017 through at least August 2017, Wynn lobbied Trump and members of his administration to force out of the U.S. a Chinese national who was here for political asylum. Such a case is so exceedingly rare that the Department of Justice said it had not brought such a case in more than 30 years. Assistant Attorney General Matthew G. Olsen said, “Where a foreign government uses an American as its agent to influence policy decisions in the United States, FARA gives the American people a right to know.”
During this period, Wynn was one of four Republican National Committee finance chairs; the other three were Elliott Broidy, Michael Cohen, and Louis DeJoy. In 2020, Broidy pleaded guilty to conspiring to violate foreign lobbying laws; he worked to win benefits for Chinese and Malaysian interests from the Trump administration. Michael Cohen pleaded guilty to eight counts of campaign finance violations, tax fraud, and bank fraud. Louis DeJoy was appointed in May 2020 to head the United States Postal Service, where he made changes that appeared to be attempts to influence the 2020 election. Broidy recruited Wynn to work for China, thinking that Wynn’s work with the RNC, his business experience in China, and his friendship with Trump “would be helpful in getting access to Trump Administration officials.”
FARA scholar Carrie Levine tweeted: “So, to recap, DOJ is alleging that Wynn was contacting Trump administration officials to advocate for China while serving as RNC finance chair.”
In another case, a superseding indictment filed today in New York federal court accuses Trump’s good friend Thomas Barrack of accepting a pledge of $374 million from the United Arab Emirates while he was also illegally lobbying the administration for the UAE.
Today, in the wake of the Buffalo shooting, Miles Taylor—a member of Trump’s administration who warned anonymously of how dangerous Trump was—announced he was leaving the Republican Party and called on others to do the same. “In the wake of the mass shooting in Buffalo on Saturday,” he wrote, “it’s become glaringly obvious that my party no longer represents conservative values but in fact poses a threat to them—and to America.”

The Buffalo reference is qualified by the second half of his quoted words. Would he have said that in the absence of Buffalo happening? Who knows. But if Buffalo hadn’t happened, the second part of his statement is still true. Which was my point, as it relates to my previous posts. I wasn’t trying to turn your supply chain thread into a Buffalo thread, FWIW.tempo_n_groove said:

The Buffalo reference is qualified by the second half of his quoted words. Would he have said that in the absence of Buffalo happening? Who knows. But if Buffalo hadn’t happened, the second part of his statement is still true. Which was my point, as it relates to my previous posts. I wasn’t trying to turn your supply chain thread into a Buffalo thread, FWIW.tempo_n_groove said:
I totally agree that the highlighted belongs in the Supply chain thread...Halifax2TheMax said:From Letter From an American:There are other legal cases in the news today, too, having to do with foreign influence during the Trump administration. The Department of Justice filed a civil enforcement action to force Stephen A. Wynn to register under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) as a foreign agent working for China. The Justice Department says that from at least June 2017 through at least August 2017, Wynn lobbied Trump and members of his administration to force out of the U.S. a Chinese national who was here for political asylum. Such a case is so exceedingly rare that the Department of Justice said it had not brought such a case in more than 30 years. Assistant Attorney General Matthew G. Olsen said, “Where a foreign government uses an American as its agent to influence policy decisions in the United States, FARA gives the American people a right to know.”
During this period, Wynn was one of four Republican National Committee finance chairs; the other three were Elliott Broidy, Michael Cohen, and Louis DeJoy. In 2020, Broidy pleaded guilty to conspiring to violate foreign lobbying laws; he worked to win benefits for Chinese and Malaysian interests from the Trump administration. Michael Cohen pleaded guilty to eight counts of campaign finance violations, tax fraud, and bank fraud. Louis DeJoy was appointed in May 2020 to head the United States Postal Service, where he made changes that appeared to be attempts to influence the 2020 election. Broidy recruited Wynn to work for China, thinking that Wynn’s work with the RNC, his business experience in China, and his friendship with Trump “would be helpful in getting access to Trump Administration officials.”
FARA scholar Carrie Levine tweeted: “So, to recap, DOJ is alleging that Wynn was contacting Trump administration officials to advocate for China while serving as RNC finance chair.”
In another case, a superseding indictment filed today in New York federal court accuses Trump’s good friend Thomas Barrack of accepting a pledge of $374 million from the United Arab Emirates while he was also illegally lobbying the administration for the UAE.
