They're gonna need a shorter leash

If you wonder why White House staff attempts to micromanage President Joe Biden, his interview on 60 Minutes this past Sunday would be Exhibit A. 


One excerpt in particular which has the President's administration scrambling: 





For many Americans, Biden saying such a thing is more a confirmation than a revelation. 


What's ironic is less than 12 hours before the airing of that interview, Joe Concha at The Hill pondered why "fact-checking" has disappeared under Biden. Sure enough, the WaPo put forth a quasi fact check in response to POTUS declaring the pandemic "over." 


 



In essence, what the Post's Editorial Board is saying is that the bag o' taxpayer goodies is going to be emptied if the pandemic is officially declared no longer an emergency. Again, this is another in a long line of confirmed suspicions that this became less and less about public health as time has gone on.  


A good crisis has indeed not gone to waist, but progs still believe there is blood to be squeezed from the turnip.
