Where does the Federal gov't get the authority to pay for hurricane disasters?

Why did filthy Rich Pig Pelosi refuse to fund operation warp speed?

As a "strict constitutionalist constructionist" conservative I encourage your party to run on the platform that the federal government has no legal authority to fund hurricane monitoring, vaccine development, or disaster relief.

Doing otherwise would suggest you spent a lifetime lying your fat ass off about the limited Federal authorities in the Constitution
 
Thank You President Trump!

The U.S. reported on Saturday another daily record of new Covid vaccine doses administered, pushing the weekly average of new shots per day above 3 million, according to data compiled by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Do you recall trump telling us that there would be 20 million doses of vaccine available by the end of last December. I believe he had about 10% of that amount. Or maybe you remember that trump again told us that they were holding millions of vaccine doses for use in a second inoculation? Those doses never existed.
he had no plan, no strategy for either purchasing or distributing vaccine. However you can be sure that he and his family, and friends were first in line to get whatever vaccine was available.

I recall the TDS crowd mocking Trump for saying he/they would have a vaccine by late 2020.

800 million MY ASS!

The Trump Administration reserved 100 million doses of the Pfizer vaccine in July 2020, as part of a deal in which the US agreed to invest $1.95 billion for large-scale production and distribution of the vaccine.

The 100 million doses cover just about a sixth of the US’s need. The European Union, by comparison, purchased 200 million doses of the Pfizer vaccine and has an option to purchase 100 million more. So, the US government is scrambling to get more vaccine doses, and president Donald Trump signed an executive order to force US companies to make distribution to Americans a priority.

However, the order wouldn’t help to increase the number of doses available—something that the administration could have reportedly done months ago, in July. According to the New York Times, Trump’s officials didn’t lock in a deal to secure between 100 million and 500 million additional doses of the Pfizer vaccine beyond the ones included in the original agreement.

In hindsight, of course, it looks like a foolish move. The US could have secured enough doses to vaccinate its entire population.

I figure, had all this been left up to him, and if he would have remained in office, he would have shipped those 100 million Vaccines to only Red States, and only Republicans would have had access to them!
 
Trump said he was going to get 100,000 vaccinated before Jan. 1st. He just missed. He was under 30,000. That is close in Trump terms. Every industrial nation bought as many vaccines as they could while they were being made. Trump actually fucked up a couple of deals.
Biden is actually getting the job done. It is great to see government functioning, isn't it?

'This was avoidable': Trump has been downplaying the virus from the start

After months of publicly rejecting the advice of his own medical experts, President Donald Trump has fallen victim to his own false narrative around the risks of the coronavirus and how to avoid getting infected.

Our great president took a huge political risk and placed these contracts BEFORE these vaccines had even been approved by the FDA!

LMAO. Thank you President Obama for investing millions for mRNA technology long before trump decided to destroy the nation. trump did not fund the vaccines that hit the market first. Quite the contrary. Further, once foreign labs produced the first successful mRNA vaccine, trump's only interest was golf, as he already got his ass stomped in the election.


Washington, DC – Today, at a hearing of the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis, Congressman Bill Foster (D-IL) highlighted the work done and investments made during the Obama administration that are directly responsible for the successes of current vaccines in development. Specifically, Foster pointed to President Obama’s decision to invest in mRNA vaccine research, which is one platform being used to develop potential vaccines in record time.
Foster said, “Heeding the advice of his scientific panel, in 2013 the Obama Administration invested $25 million through DARPA for research into the mRNA platform for pandemic response. This was followed by a $125 million investment by BARDA in 2015, so that by the end of the Obama administration, mRNA vaccines and therapeutics were being tested in both animals and humans.
“The reasons the Obama administration prioritized mRNA vaccines and therapeutics were speed of manufacture, and potency. Without those kinds of investments, “Project Warp Speed” and current efforts to produce an effective COVID-19 vaccine as quickly as possible would not be finding success.”

Thanks to Obama's foresight, coupled with years of other scientists who suffered many setbacks, Pfizer/Moderna simply had to plug the correct RNA into the existing technology, and produce vaccines in record time.

When you listen to scientists, instead of creating your own version of science (inject bleach), you realize success.

Instead of hailing the incompetent moron who cheats at golf, you could take the time and read this fascinating history of the technology.

LOL. I knew the 800 million number was nonsense.
 
If Trump had ordered those 800,000,000 doses in 2015 and then had drowned in them immediately,
that would have worked out even better.
