Biden's French parrot 🦜, Karine Jean-Pierre continues to lie for Lyin' Biden squawking “The fact of the matter is, the border is closed,”, adding “Which is in part why you see people trying to make this dangerous journey using smuggling networks.”

Do you see what she did there?

“Peter Doocy asked about a recent poll that found 88 percent of people think the U.S. is "on the wrong track."

Jean-Pierre responded that the White House knows the American people are "feeling" the high costs, but assured reporters that the U.S. economy is doing well.

"We stronger economically than we have been in history," she said, pointing to decreasing unemployment numbers and new jobs creation.

She blames the high costs on Russian President Vladimir Putin's "price hike" amid the war in Ukraine and the "once in a generation pandemic."”

Biden's new press parrot 🦜was chosen for one and only one reason, her talent for shamelessly lying for the regime with a straight face.

"Government…is an agency engaged wholesale, and as a matter of solemn duty, in the performance of acts which all self-respecting individuals refrain from as a matter of common decency." - H.L. Mencken

"We Are Not Tacos": Hispanic Association Slams Jill Biden For Comparing Latinos To 'Breakfast Tacos'

Hispanics are livid after First Lady Jill Biden compared them to "breakfast tacos" during a Monday speech to the 2022 UnidosUS Annual Conference held in Texas, where she opined on Hispanics' "Quest for Equity."

During her speech, Biden said that "the diversity of this community, as distinct as the bodegas of the Bronx, as beautiful as the blossoms of Miami and as unique as the breakfast tacos here in San Antonio, is your strength."

This did not sit well with Latinos, who spent the day dragging her on Twitter. It also caught the attention of the National Association of Hispanic Journalists (NAHJ), which said in a statement: "We are not tacos."

"Using breakfast tacos to try to demonstrate the uniqueness of Latinos in San Antonio demonstrates a lack of cultural knowledge and sensitivity to the diversity of Latinos in the region," reads the statement.

"Our heritage as Latinos is shaped by a variety of diasporas, cultures and food traditions, and should not be reduced to a stereotype."

Memes and hot takes abound: (See link provided to see these hilarious vids!)

I could go for a breakfast taco right about now. Extra spicy HOT too!

I heard professor Jill was speaking at a 'Latinx IncluXion Luncheon'. What up with all those X's? I bet the lizard people are behind all this.

Remember that time when Cheeto ate a taco salad bowl on Cinco de Mayo and the left lost their minds?

How did the Latinx community take the taco comparison?

HockeyDad wrote:

Remember kids...everytime the word LatinX is mentioned the GOP gets another supporter!

Getting back to your question though...not very good. Muy malo.

"Micahel LaRosa sent out a tweet on Tuesday morning saying that Biden apologizes if “her words conveyed anything but pure admiration and love for the Latino community.”

A few odd things. For one, it lacks the “x” the left loves to attach to the Latino community in order to make the term more “inclusive.” It’s a term the majority of the Latino community expressly rejects, so I can’t help but wonder if the lack of the “x” this time is the left’s way of doing a small bit of damage control.

Secondly, why didn’t the First Lady say this herself?

I feel like this was a message she could have delivered herself to a nearby reporter, yet she relegates this apology to a throwaway tweet by one of her underlings? That doesn’t actually convey regret, it conveys annoyance or cowardice. Either way, it’s not much of an apology."

Again with the hating latkes...

The fam met the FIL for breakfast this weekend (lord help me), and a ?ten? year old at the table next to us ordered what he thought was some special pancake. What he got was a plate with a giant latke (menu called it a "rich potato pancake" or something). He covered it with syrup and tasted it, but was not pleased and I overheard his dad asking to send it back in favor of a normal pancake.

Poor poor latke....

WSJ: The baby-formula shortage is getting ... worse?

A White House website didn’t solve it. Airlift flights from Europe didn’t fix it. Nine months after the New York Times first reported the shortages and three months after Joe Biden acknowledged he finally learned of it, retail inventory of baby formula dropped to its lowest level in July, the Wall Street Journal reports this morning:

Availability of powdered formula products in U.S. stores earlier this month dropped to the lowest level so far this year, with about 30% of products out of stock for the week ended July 3, according to the market-research firm IRI. While availability improved slightly last week, out-of-stock levels remain higher than in recent months, and shortages remain acute in states including Alaska, Utah and Wyoming, IRI data showed.

At the same time, consumers are finding fewer choices of brands, sizes or formats of formula on grocery-store shelves as the variety of available products shrinks. U.S. supermarkets over the four weeks ended June 26 sold an average of 11 different formula products per store weekly, according to IRI, compared with a weekly average of 24 from 2018 to 2021.

Keith Milligan, controller of Piggly Wiggly stores in Georgia and Alabama, said his stores are carrying five of the 30 formula products they typically sell, compared with about 10 in late spring. Store shelves aren’t empty, but have many gaps, Mr. Milligan said, and customers are purchasing what is available.

“It has not improved at all,” Mr. Milligan said of Piggly Wiggly’s formula supply.

What about Joe Biden’s touted airlifts of supply from Europe? That may have helped take the edge off, but that’s all. The amount transported covers less than a week of US consumption:

In May, the White House directed the Defense Department to use its contracts with commercial air-cargo lines to bring formula from other countries into the U.S. The effort, known as Operation Fly Formula, by July 17 will have flown in baby formula on nearly 50 flights from places such as Europe, Australia and Mexico, and transported the equivalent of more than 55 million 8-ounce bottles to the U.S., according to the administration.

U.S. consumers typically purchase enough powdered formula to make about 65 million 8-ounce bottles a week, according to IRI data.

What gives? First off, Abbott hasn’t gotten its production facility back on line yet after having it shut down by the FDA for months over a contested contamination claim. They restarted production recently, but storms in Michigan produced flooding that required Abbott to close it down again. They are now producing a relatively low output of a badly needed specialty formula for infants with digestive problems, the WSJ reports, but won’t restart Similac production at scale for another several weeks. Abbott is the prime contractor for the food-stamp program’s baby formula program, which means their absence is hitting low-income families hardest.

The group that manufactures Enfamil says they are trying to ramp up domestic production and plan to import more formula from Europe. The problem with that is that their import aims — 66 million 8-ounce bottle equivalents — is again only a week’s worth of US consumption. And that import boost will get stretched out over the next four months, making the market impact minimal.

Joe Biden made a big deal about the airlifts and his use of the Defense Production Act, but the former was more show than substance and the latter even more so. The problem wasn’t a lack of desire to produce, but a lack of capacity and a difficult time getting the precursors. The futility of that action — which Biden took after first trying a website for a response — has been made clear in the two months since Biden signed the DPA order. The existing supply-chain crises, which have largely remained unresolved, is hampering formula production and the DPA isn’t going to solve those issues.

Finally, the Biden administration could have taken immediate steps to prevent this issue from getting worse once it appeared in October, and especially after the FDA shut down the Abbott facility in late January. Biden and his team could have lifted the tariffs on imports of baby formula and ordered the FDA to approve the labeling of European-produced formula, a point that has nothing to do with its nutritional value or safety. They could still take these steps, which would then allow those manufacturers to regularly ship their product to the US for sale rather than have the US Air Force transport it on an emergency basis to provide a drop-in-the-bucket level of assistance to hungry infants and panicked parents.

Instead, Biden’s doing as little as possible while hoping no one notices that he hasn’t solved the crisis, or even dented it. That’s been Biden’s modus operandi for eighteen months now, and … it’s working about as well as his website solution to the baby formula crisis.

Baby formula. Can't even manage that "crisis"? I suppose they thought they'd starve em out for surviving the birthing process. THIS is the DNC in action.
