New York Times ^ | 3/12/21

President Biden on Thursday evening directed states to make all adult Americans eligible to receive coronavirus vaccines no later than May 1, using a somber but hopeful prime-time address to the nation to say Americans may be able to “mark our independence from this virus” by the Fourth of July.

He really can’t “direct” them, or “make” them, or “force” them, you know.

Federalism...

Admins: I didn’t see this ‘speech’ posted. Of course, delete if duplicate.

Most of you didn’t have the stomach to watch this. Question: How many times did the video do ‘cut-aways’ to cover up Biden’s bloopers? And wasn’t the ‘sincere’ message hurl-worthy?

“He really can’t “direct” them, or “make” them, or “force” them, you know.”

The average liberal idiot drooling over Biden’s first message doesn’t know this. Good point.

Sure He can the federal government is the one who is paying for the vaccines, the feds are the ones who are distributing it and they are the ones who are on contract with the makers to produce it they absolutely will and ARE dictating how it’s distributed. The military is actively participating in the distribution it’s 100% a Federal operation you know operation warp speed that didn’t change with the change of administration.

I think that was already the plan. Take VA for example. The Governor there said that he wanted all residents vaccinated bu mid to late summer (but revised the plan a bit). It still seems to be in line with what Joe said.

Nope...the only gun held to the States is to threaten withholding Federal funding.

That takes an act of Congress, and that has been done too many times (55 mph speed limit in the 70’s, uniform 21 drinking age, etc) but it cannot be done merely by E.O.

Even ever so Sloe Joe wouldn’t want to be known as the one who withheld a federally funded vaccine...

True. If someone wants to give me the vaccine, they can come to my house. I don’t have time to get in the hysteria of it all.

The Fed controls the distribution of a state doesn’t comply with the feds guidance they could just stop the distribution to that state since no state is under contract with the major manufacturers they have zero supply themselves. No state is going to risk being cut off of the most desired product on the planet right now the people would root and dispose the leaders. The antivax loons might say they don’t want it but the vast majority of people are clamoring for the vax and are desperate to get it. In my County they put up 25,000 doses via email to the 700,000 who are on the waiting list and those spots are filled in under ten minutes then it’s wait another week to get the email invite off the wait list.

Meaningless BS.

States should make sure people 60 and over can get the vaccines first.

Most likely, people 60 and over will have the chance to get the vaccine by May 1st.

So what's the point of the announcement?

You are wrong very wrong. The feds have the contracts Trump saw to that with warp speed. The feds have the only sources of the approved vaccines period full stop they are distributing it to the states the states take the doses they are sent from the feds that’s how warp speed works. Did you even listen to Trump before he left office he laid it all out that the feds would handle the logistics and the military would be on point for it that’s exaclty what is happening. The largest site in Dallas is the FEMA site why because they have the benfit of triple supply they are getting Pfizer, Moderna and JnJ. The federal plan is all Trump and it’s working great the flip side is the states have no direct supply they are not paying for it nor have contracts to do so.

Sleepy Joe is taking the credit and blaming President Trump. Fair? No. But that’s the game he’s playing.

He can declare edicts all he wants. I’m not taking any quickly cooked up vaccine, at least not for 10 years.

I watched most of the speech. It felt so forced, scripted and rehearsed.

It was all over the place with it’s bad, it’s gonna get better, it could get worse, etc. Then told us if his plan fails, which it won’t, he will admit it then proceeded to give himself about a dozen ways it could fail he could blame on someone else.

:: I’m not taking any quickly cooked up vaccine ::

The CDC has already said that it is NOT a true vaccine.
It is a prophylaxis.
