[47]
Several health administrators from Former President Obama s cabinet are saying President
[55]
Biden has lost credibility when it comes to covid.
[60]
He was elected based on saying he would crush the virus and not the economy and now it seems
[65]
people are struggling to trust it will happen.
[70]
We are getting very mixed messages.
[72]
The CEO of Pfizer said his safe and effective vaccines will beat covid, delta and omicron.
[82]
Now he is saying it won t beat omicron but not to worry a new miracle speed shot against
[92]
Omicron is being developed and it will be available in March.
[109]
So shots that on average take 5-10 years to develop can now be developed in 60 days.
[120]
Its not clear whether omicron will even be an issue in March or if you will have to take
[126]
1 or 2 shots in addition to the 3rd covid booster
[140]
and the 4th booster now being recommended.
[149]
The white house is telling businesses with 100 employees or more to force vaccinate their
[155]
employees, allow testing or fire even though the mandates are in the Supreme Court right
[165]
now and haven t been ruled on yet.
[176]
Over in Germany the government is implementing a new wrist band system.
[181]
People will wear a colored wrist band so everyone can see their vaccination status.
[188]
Unvaccinated people will wear a different colored wrist band so Germans can easily identify
[195]
whom to avoid or shame.
[199]
Really Germany.
[201]
You want people to self identify with a colored band on their arm so they are easy to spot?
[209]
Really?
[210]
One german citizen said he didn t like it but it was also so annoying to show his papers
[217]
all the time.
[219]
And no I am not quoting a story from before World War 2.
[223]
This is happening right now.
[233]
Regarding President Bidens Build Back Better Stimulus bill, the Federal Reserve is now
[238]
saying not only is inflation not transitory or temporary, but it might get worse.
[252]
Many analysts are saying the Federal Reserve is stuck between a rock and a hard place.
[260]
If they don t raise rates inflation could continue to spin out of control.
[264]
If they do raise rates they could trigger a 10-30% drop in
[275]
the stock market.
[286]
This stuck position is also hurting many americans.
[290]
While some are doing very well, the middle class, lower income families and fixed income
[295]
families are on the verge of bottoming out on covering their monthly bills.
[303]
High gas prices, high food costs and higher housing costs are hurting the old and the
[309]
young the most.
[310]
Older American are struggling to cover their bills and younger Americans are nowhere near
[317]
being able to own a home.
[321]
All this was brought on by the Fed s monetary policies.
[326]
President Biden continues to say the miracle pill to solve inflation is the $2 Trillion
[332]
spending bill, but at least 4 democrat senators are now saying the stimulus bill needs to
[339]
be smaller, paid for and help the American people.
[344]
The biggest areas of focus right now are free pre-kindergarten and reduced daycare expenses
[350]
for middle and lower income families.
[354]
Biden also wants to build more affordable housing.
[359]
Biden also wants to see the child tax credit monthly checks for the next few years or at
[365]
least one more year.
[367]
Biden wants to give significant tax credits on electric vehicles and solar power.
[373]
Biden said 40% of the green energy he wants to invest in will help disadvantaged neighborhoods.
[384]
He wants to reduce the cost of prescription drugs and make Obamacare premiums more affordable
[390]
for 9 million Americans.
[392]
He wants to expand medicare to 4 million more Americans.
[397]
He also wants to expand and extend the Earned Income TAX credit for 17 million working families.
[406]
I noticed on the White House description page of Biden s plan that it no longer mentions
[412]
taxing the wealthy.
[414]
He also says he will hold the wealthy accountable by adding 80,000 new IRS agents and will monitor
[422]
money Americans are sending via paypal, venmo, cash app and more so more money is coming
[430]
into the IRS.
[432]
This is the hold the billionaires accountable but it plainly says the middle class will
[437]
be audited more.
[455]
The biggest sections of the bill are around $400 billion for the free pre kindergarten
[462]
and the reduced daycare expense.
[464]
$550 billion for green energy and $600 billion in tax credits for the wealthy by removing
[474]
or raising the Salt Tax Caps.
[477]
Now this is the plan several democrat lawmakers say needs revamping.
[486]
How do these investments in the future lower the price of gas now.
[490]
How do these investments in the future make groceries more affordable now.
[495]
How do these investments make rent and housing more affordable now.
[500]
The congressional budget office said over 10 years this plan adds trillions to the national
[509]
debt.
[510]
So it will be interesting to see what these smaller, paid for bills that supposedly help
[520]
more Americans will look like.
[523]
Senator Wyden has promised to release a new stimulus bill any day now.
[529]
Senators Cardin and Casey say a smaller bill that is more people focused is needed.
[541]
Representative Pramila Jayapal said she still supports Biden s Build Back Better Stimulus
[547]
Bill but said she wants to see the President and the Senate including forgiving $50,000
[554]
of student loan debt.
[558]
She said it s the single biggest stimulus democrats could make the US government give
[566]
to the American tax payer.
[573]
Bernie Sanders says large corporations need to pay their people more.
[578]
We can t live in a society where half the population lives paycheck to paycheck.
[602]
The White House announced they will send another $308 million to the Taliban in Afghanistan.
[610]
The president already sent $474 million last fall.
[620]
Later today President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris will be speaking on their opinion
[625]
of changing voting rights.
[628]
They say the filibuster should be removed using the nuclear option of a rules change
[634]
while democrats have a majority in the Senate.
[637]
They say it is racist to ask people to show who they are with an ID or even be a citizen.
[646]
In fact, New York just changes law so non-citizens can vote in their local elections.
[672]
However, Senator Manchin said he doesn t support changing the filibuster or the nuclear option.
[686]
He said republicans and democrats should work together.
[689]
The filibuster shouldn t be thrown out just so one part can get all their want while in
[697]
control.
[698]
However, Senator Sinema, Jon Tester and Mark Kelly say they also don t support changing
[708]
the filibuster and not one republican agrees to it either.
[722]
The Red Cross announced they are having the worst blood shortage in history with people
[731]
sick or limited in donation ability because of vaccines.
[735]
They urge all americans to consider giving blood and platlettes if they can.
[741]
