I Cant Feed My Son!

The latest on the Left's war on our children. Let that sink in. The latest on the Left's war on our precious and defenseless infants. Here you go.

• Sara Owens said she was searching for baby formula for her six-month-old daughter, Naomi, when she encountered a dad break down at her local Walmart
• Ownes said the dad was distraught because he couldn't find his daughter's formula brand amid the bare shelves at the store
• Owens said the occurrence is now commonplace amid the nationwide baby formula shortage as he opened donation sites to help struggling parents
• It comes as the CEO of Perrigo, one of the four major formula suppliers in the nation, warned that the shortage could last until the end of the year
• Joe Biden has faced criticism for claiming the shortage would be fixed in the coming weeks and that there had been no warning signs it was coming

No shortage on Amazon....

These people need to get their shet together...

My Amazon shows up in hours sometimes. 

192 House Republicans voted against a plan for $28 million to pay the FDA for inspectors to get plants opened and inspect formula from overseas.  

Which party wants to fuck babies?  Voting against getting formula to the shelves... maybe if they said the food was for a fetus they would throw $28 trillion at it....

Don't give the cult facts...

They hate them ....

Tucker and Alex Jones will give them the truth 

They knew back in Feb and did nothing.  

What would you have had them do?

I've been asking this question online for the last couple weeks as fox news continues their propaganda of misinformation...

The most frequent response is more blame on Biden as conspiracy rag websites amd fox tell them that all formula has been sent to the southern border ( border is usually spelled boarder ) ...

The biggest issue is not having a plan to fix the problem that you helped cause.
There are restrictions in place by the government that make it illegal to import formula from Europe.
The factory that voluntarily recalled their formula while the tests were being done was shut down by the government.
Then when it was determined that there was nothing wrong with the formula the plant was still not allowed to reopen.
Now the pressure is on the government and they say the factory can reopen in two weeks. But it will take them 6-8 weeks to get the formula to stores.
So, NOW the government wants to temporarily waive the barriers that prevent formula being imported.

What you DO NOT come out and say is this:
BIDEN: "If we had been better mind readers, I guess we could've" taken action to address the baby formula crisis sooner.
or this:
HHS Sec. Xavier Becerra: "FDA has kept me apprised of this from LAST YEAR. We have been moving as quickly as we can"
or this:
JEN PSAKI, May 13: "The production of baby formula is so specialized and so specific that you can't just use the Defense Production Act."
"It just doesn't work that way."
Then invoke the DPA this week and expect it to work. Had Trump done this for ventilators instead of going to manufacturers and talking to them the Left would have gone crazy.

"The White House claims administration officials have been working on the problem for months. Given the timeline of response, that clearly isn't true."

You also DO NOT say this last week:

The Food and Drug Administration on Wednesday appeared to downplay the extent of the baby formula shortage in a statement that former FDA Associate Commissioner Peter Pitts called "useless."

"The FDA continues to take several significant actions to help increase the current supply of infant formula in the U.S.," FDA said regarding the impact Abbott Nutrition's voluntary recall of several infant formula products has had on supply. "In fact, other infant formula manufacturers are meeting or exceeding capacity levels to meet current demand. Notably, more infant formula was purchased in the month of April than in the month prior to the recall."

When Trump did this sort of thing to try to not panic the people and slow the run on stores it was evil. Now when the Left does it (either intentionally or out of incompetence) they are not called out for it.

You also DO NOT do this:
"...This is an urgent issue that the FDA and White House are working 24/7 to address."

"Who is running point on the formula issue at the White House? You mentioned the White House is involved," another reporter followed up.

"At the White House, I don't know," Jean-Pierre said while laughing. "I can find out for you and get you a person who is running point."

You absolutely HAVE to know WHO is running point to fix this problem!

And you NEVER do this:
"But Jen Psaki, whom I affectionately call “Ginger Goebbels,” told the world Thursday that the White House has been on this issue “for weeks now.” Saying the administration has been doing everything possible to improve the situation they caused, she stated they would do even more things now. How can more things be done if, in fact, the administration was already doing everything possible? Of course, they can’t be. That either means she’s lying about what they’ve been doing or what they will do now. No reporter asked for clarification."

Of course you have NOT been doing EVERYTHING possible -- If so, HOW are you about to do MORE?

"So have they been on top of this problem the public has been aware of for weeks or are they just now moving as it “became apparent” to them? Have they been doing everything they could from the start to fix it, or are there things they are going to do now to fix it? It can’t be both."

Is this really the best you can do:
“As you know, the recalls date back to February,” Lee continued. “I believe Politico reported months ago that the FDA was first warned about the suspected bacteria issue as early as September. Are there any specific actions that this administration took — meetings, phone calls, briefings — in February or any earlier to begin addressing this potential shortage?”

Jean-Pierre gave a lengthy response that did not directly address Biden’s claim that mind-reading would have been required to head off the crisis — or give details on what his team was doing since February to address it.

“I mean, you’ve heard us talk about this. You’ve seen my colleagues on your networks, talking about what we have done since February. We’ve been working around on this 24/7,” Jean-Pierre said.

“But I do want to give you a little bit of an update of where we are. So getting more safe formula onto shelves across the country is one of the president’s top priorities right. This is something that he is focusing on, very acutely and again, I said 24/7 we’ve been working on this since we learned about this back in February.”

Then follow up with this:
Lee followed up, “I’m just curious whether there are specific meetings, briefings, you know, phone calls that you can point us to?”

Jean-Pierre admitted, ” I don’t have anything specific for you to point to. I’m happy to go back and get that, you know, make sure that we are fully transparent on what we’ve been doing.”

This is fairly key:
“It’s typical in this administration [that] they want to blame someone else,” Sen. John Thune (R-SD) told “Fox and Friends.” “This is another on a long list of examples in the Biden economy of products that people either can’t get or are paying a lot more for.”

“This shortage is another example I think of basic government incompetence,” Thune added. “On a basic level, this is a government that just doesn’t do things well, they’re not a competent government.”

As for what they should have done, this article touches on some of it:

It should come as no surprise that the federal government has regulated its way into another crisis, this one affecting tens of thousands of families and infants.

For the past year or so, infant formula has become increasingly hard to find. A February recall of Abbott Nutrition’s formula exacerbated the shortage to the point that parents are spending hours driving to different stores looking for the formula they need to feed their children.

The Biden administration claimed this week that it has been aware of the shortage for months, even though officials mentioned it publicly for the first time in May. The White House also said the crisis is one of its top priorities, yet it has offered few, if any, solutions to parents trying to prevent their infants from going hungry.

The most obvious solution would be to cut back the red tape preventing families from accessing infant formulas made outside the United States. Indeed, the Food and Drug Administration’s inane requirements for imported formula are one of the reasons we have a shortage in the first place.

Under the current rules, U.S. retailers are not allowed to import infant formula manufactured in most other countries, such as Germany and the Netherlands, even if it meets the FDA’s health and safety standards. In fact, formula developed in the European Union is often better nutritionally than formula produced in the U.S. It is less likely to include processed sugars and more likely to include organic, nourishing ingredients, such as milk fat (as opposed to plant-based fats).

The FDA, however, has decided to ban European formula because it doesn’t meet the agency’s labeling standards. In one case last year, for example, the FDA recalled 76,000 units of infant formula manufactured in Germany and imported into the U.S. because the product did not inform customers that it contained less than 1 milligram of iron per 100 calories, according to Reason.

This is absurd. There has never been a valid justification for banning infant formula that is both common throughout the rest of the world and better for developing infants than much of what we produce here. But the problem is especially poignant now, when the well-being of thousands of children is at risk because there isn’t enough U.S. formula to go around.

The Biden administration must act immediately and drop its useless import regulations to help families in need. Better yet, officials should scrap the FDA’s labeling requirements altogether and allow consumers to determine for themselves what’s best for themselves and their families.

An incompetent administration will always operate by what we call crisis-management.  They are focused on one thing at a time, while smaller fires are starting all around them.  They do not turn their attention to the other fires until they get out of hand.

Too much regulation, lack of prompt attention when a problem arises that you helped to cause.  Then incompetent people in charge not having a solid plan.  Then your spokespeople not knowing the plan or even who is in charge of getting the plan together.

Now they want $28M.  For all the wrong reasons -- just to add more oversight and regulations on top of what they have already.  They claim to want to add more inspectors.  How many do you need for $28M?  Are you going to hire one million inspectors?  Maybe you need more -- but you probably needed more all the while.  Why not shift your current inspectors to where they are needed now -- prioritize.  Why not fire some of the administrators and replace them with inspectors if that is what is needed.  It really is not -- this a cop-out and another example of blaming others and swerving the problem.

All sorts of papers and books could be written on how poorly this was handled from the start.  At least, it will give projects and work to students and researchers.

This administration did nothing as russia was aligning soldiers along the Ukraine border.  He okayed a minor incursion.    Invasion could have but prevented if numnuts acted sooner rather than later.  The baby formula situation was known for months yet he sat on it... like he wanted this to happen.  He puts his citizens last.  Wake up people...I am starting to think this administration is creating all these problems.  Nothing this band of incompetent fools has helped america and her citizens. 

The votes against the bill were because of the millions of dollars in salary increases it tried to allocate to the very same people that contributed to the problem existing in the first place.

But don't let facts get in the way of the narrative.

AMEN, brother...devil is always in the details with that crew!!!

Next crisis coming...here's a hint...China went to school on our sanctions against Rooskies and their fams, banks, capital market access...and large expensive toys.  So guess which country's leadership is telling their top lieutenants to divest everything they have in the good old US of A???  Yessum.

Guess where Joey's heading soon...guess who's saber-rattling about Taiwan...can you say mi-cro-chip?  Thank the gods we at last have strong leadership!!!  

Smells familiar...   

@DB51daBEARS

Here's another crisis waiting to happen,,,and it's just one of many that are currently brewing...Canada just banned Huawei within their entire 5G telecommunications setup...probably as a retaliation for the two Michaels being kept in a Chinese jail without cause for years now,,,Canada ended up retaining a CFO of Huawei and has been in custody for a long time too, all at the request of the USA...well Huawei has all their 4G systems perfectly setup, built and operational and the mass majority of Canada's mobile phone system works still is using 4G, not 5G,,,meaning China still has full access to all their abilities to infiltrate Canada's intelligence if they so chose to do so,,,which is very likely something they have already been doing for a while.

The big key here is the Arctic and who ends up controlling the Arctic Ocean, as over time,,,Russia and China will join forces to seize that part of the world which then puts all of Northwest Territories in jeopardy...which means Canada will be under a very ominous and constant threat of attack,,,which means USA will be forced to help Canada to defend the North...which ultimately means:

John Snow will be coming back on HBO in the fall of 2024,,,just in time for another US election cycle.

@PackersBackers

Tell ya what, PB...between Big Joey and Petite Patate, the hits just keep on comin'...

PS - really???  Gotta check out if Ned Stark's basT_rd is really comin' back...that would be so cool (no pun)...but it's gotta be same writers, same show runner, same actors...or it's not GoT.  Yeah...and the same dragons, too...no stand-ins!!!

@Raiders22

Hey buddy...don't mean to make you think I was ignoring your posts.  Great information, and stuff that regular folks like us already are aware of.

Take care...all the best
