With direct payments hitting bank accounts as soon as this weekend, the newly passed American Rescue Plan is quickly going into effect, and President Joe Biden is headed on the road to educate the public on the benefits included in the massive $1.9 trillion law.

Next week, Biden will set off to give his sales pitch as part of the "Help is Here" tour, backed up by Vice President Kamala Harris, first lady Jill Biden, second gentleman Doug Emhoff and members of his Cabinet -- all taking part in the effort to secure credit and continue to build support for the massive spending plan.

"In the coming weeks, Jill and I, and Kamala on Doug, and our Cabinet, with all of you, members of Congress, we’re gonna be traveling the country to speak directly to the American people about how this law is going to make a real difference in their lives and how help is here for them. Almost every single aspect would be significant ... every one of those pieces standing alone would be viewed as a significant accomplishment," Biden said at a Friday afternoon Rose Garden event to celebrate the bill's passage.

In a memo to White House senior staff obtained by ABC News, deputy chief of staff Jen O’Malley Dillon outlined the outreach efforts included in the tour, which will focus on "10 key aspects of the bill," including helping veterans, halving child poverty, bolstering rural health care and supporting small businesses.

"We’ll be putting surrogates and senior administration officials on local TV in markets around America. We’ll mobilize our coalition of over 400 supportive mayors and governors – Democrats and Republicans alike – to talk about what the plan means for them and their communities..."

They should plan a tour a year from now to tout the higher interest rates, the recession, skyrocketing oil and gas prices, The millions of illegals wandering around our country and the massive unemployment. I can’t wait to see that sideshow.

Tour, my derriere.

They’re doing parachute drops into select blue bits.

They’re carrying coals to Newcastle.

That’s not a tour. It’s kabuki theater.

Meanwhile, nine months later AP has finally noticed states are hiding something...

Governments delay access to public records during pandemic

What could it be...? 🤔

So, is this how they get rid of old Joe?

Let him keel over during this circus?

Or will there be a JFK moment to get rid of the 2A?

Once again, democrat party government creates a major problem by enforcing lockdowns with the threat of government punishment just to come riding along afterwards with more government as the solution to a government created and enforced problem.

They are actually naming it the ‘Help is Here’ tour?

I guess they never read this famous quote: “The most terrifying words in the English language are: I’m from the government and I’m here to help.” — Ronald Reagan.

How many in the USA really want that “help” or believe it will do good?

This will be a huge flop. America is tired of perpetual lockdowns.

What is the point since the 2 trillion bill is now law and the funds are already going out? Also, how long can senile feeble Biteme last on such a demanding schedule?

I believe there is an underlying nefarious purpose for this propaganda tour. Any ideas what that purpose is?
