WH Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre Says Biden Didn’t Mean to Say Pandemic is ‘Over’
Another one my covid predictions has come true.
Earlier this week, after Biden told “60 Minutes” that the covid pandemic is over, I wrote:
Personally, I am looking forward to watching how Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre walks back Biden’s “60 Minutes” segment.
Karine did not disappoint.
JEAN-PIERRE: “So, just to step back for a second, what we saw during that interview, ’60 Minutes’ interview when he made those comments. He was walking through the Detroit car show, the halls of the Detroit car show, and he was looking around. We have to remember the last time that they held that event was three years ago. Even as we’re talking about UNGA, the president is going to speak shortly, as I just mentioned, we — has not been held in person for about three years as well. So, we are in a different time.”

If it is more manageable, then why continue with the “emergency orders” and vaccine mandates (for a vaccine that neither stops infection or transmission)?
The unsurprising walk-back of Biden’s pandemic statement is merely the latest example of the administration “clarifying” his off-the-cuff remarks.
White House officials quickly rushed to clarify his words, with one member of the administration noting that “the President’s comments do not mark a change in policy toward the administration’s handling of the virus, and there are no plans to lift the Public Health Emergency.”
Biden’s words were also acknowledged by White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre and Dr. Anthony Fauci.
…”What he really meant is that the very severe stage of the pandemic of having… 3,000 deaths a day — that stage is no longer present,” Fauci told Politico, adding that “people should not be cavalier that we’re out of the woods.”
However, this particular gaffe may be more brutal to walk-back than most. Sen. Richard Burr of North Carolina (R) wants Biden to clarify his position on the status of the pandemic, suggesting the recent remark could complicate an upcoming push for $22.5 billion in emergency funding to sustain the fight against the virus.
“Despite Americans having largely returned to normal life, which you acknowledged when you noted that attendees at the Detroit Auto Show were not wearing masks, your administration continues to request un-offset emergency funding from Congress, enforce vaccine mandates, and maintain federal emergency declarations that cost taxpayers billions of dollars,” Mr. Burr wrote in a Monday letter.
“Without a clear plan to wind down pandemic-era policies, the deficit will continue to balloon and the effectiveness of public health measures will wane as the American people continue to be confused by mixed messages and distrust of federal officials.”
I assert that anyone willing to fund more covid emergency measures is a pandemic-end-denier. And, to wrap it up, I will add Karine’s “clarification” of Biden’s remark as another one of my covid predictions that have come true.

Oh.
So they’re walking it back.
The supreme leader will not claim victory yet. Go figure.
Is there anything Brandon says that has any truly to it, or does he make it up as he goes along?
“What crazy ramblings are we going to have to walk back, today?”
White House staff as they enter the building every morning.
The WH’s AA spokes-lady says, “He [Biden] was walking through the Detroit car show, the halls of the Detroit car show, and he was looking around. We have to remember the last time that they held that event was three years ago.”
Translation, Joe was distracted by the new shiny cars.
Joe would have been an excellent choice for being the last chief of the Manhattan Indians,

Why don’t they just have her put on the Easter Bunny suit and be done with it? I guess a clown suit would do as well.
She’s already got the Sideshow Bob haircut for it
Nikole Hannah-Jones already has the clown gig sewn up.
Is it OVER over? Or, just cover?
Biden needs to be careful—in his deteriorating condition, he is eligible to be turned into compost in California.
Vegetables make good compost for vegetables
What? Over? Did you say “over”? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!
He was talking through the Dick Tracy micophone in his ear.:
“This is Biden. Over.”
“This is control. Talk about Pandemic. Over.”
“Okay. Pandemic. Over.”
The Problem is that they want the Pandemic to be over but they want the National Emergency to continue.
Maybe they are waiting for Nov. 1, although early fraud, I mean, voting makes that less effective, or in the case of the Democrat communists who “adjudicate” the votes, unnecessary.
All they need to do is to have the CDC announce the detection of a new malady called Executive Tourette’s. That’ll scotch this embarrassment once and for all.
“what we saw during that interview, ’60 Minutes’ interview when he made those comments. He was walking through the Detroit car show, the halls of the Detroit car show, and he was looking around. We have to remember the last time that they held that event was three years ago.”
So what exactly is she saying here? That the Detroit car show disorients Joe in exactly the same way as the interior of W. S. Jenks & Son Hardware Store?
That’s how I interpreted her word salad also… it seems she’s basically saying that Joe* is so senile that putting him in an environment that harkens back to the good ol’ days causes him to shift into some fugue state where he rambles and babbles and spouts bullshit. It seems to happen quite frequently.
By ending the pandemic and the government’s Emergency Powers they lose some of the controls they have to leverage their election-stealing muscle, steal more money, and force people into becoming lab rats for medical experiments.
And, if it is over, he loses the power to single handedly re-write the federal student loan program that could cost taxpayers close to $1T.
Biden was announcing his prepositions.
I seem to remember a Greek oracle who would babble incoherently and the priestesses of the temple would interpret her words. So glad to see the current administration holding to tradition.
The pandemic is not over until Ron Klain says it is over.
That’s more accurate than I would like.
It is simply not possible to understand anything (mathematical, philosophical, political, legal or whatever) until a black woman explains it slowly to the benighted masses.
Gee. Just like a TV commercial.
Two points:
1. Can we consider this “woman-splaining,” if we had a true definition of woman? Clearly, mop head is not a woman by any non-cis non-binary standard.
2. She would have to switch to Ebonics to appeal to the inner city low IQ crowd.
And if you ask her to explain it at a more reasonable pace, you’re a racist.
leaving the politics and all the obvious nonsense out of it the crystal clear message derived from this incident (yet another in a series of like incidents) is that the purported “leader of the free world,” regardless of what or when he states anything, is not to be believed, to be trusted, to be relied upon
jesus–can you imagine the concern among our allies in the world?–and the glee that such a fool must arouse among our antagonists? let alone the implications for each of us and all of our countrymen
Right. He meant to say “Which were off bizna clock.”
Oh, he probably meant to say it but wasn’t *supposed* to say it.
How many times has the “white house” sent someone out to contradict the President? And why is Congress not investigating what is going on here? Either the President is running the White House, or he isn’t, in which case he needs to be removed from office and the VP needs to take over. Otherwise, something illegal is going on.

oops. apologies for the double post.
It’s over, but not over-over. Throw another baby on the a barbie, it’s over… and out.
Well, the retarded old pedophile probably didn’t mean to shit his pants either, but he did.
