Although President Joe Biden’s policies on ending the coronavirus pandemic and fixing supply chain problems are failing, the media are blaming American workers for empty shelves in grocery stores.

“Empty shelves have returned at supermarkets as grocery employees call out sick and truckloads of food arrive late,” CNBC said in a report that said nothing about Biden’s policies or Department of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg’s responsibilities.

FJB, FHUH
Nope. This fraudulent administration OWNS it all. Like all insane libs, they try to deflect their failures onto someone/something else. They just CANNOT handle the truth, especially when it comes up and bites them square on the azz.

I can remember many days going to work with a cough or runny nose, sometimes others got it, most times not. Same for everyone in our large office. This is a BS article.

Yep, just like the cost of electricity, COVID deaths, Afghanistan, and on and on and on, Biden’s policies are fine, someone else is to blame.

Biden owns this, we didn’t have these problems with Trump. People can discern that.

This must be regional. No empty shelves where I live at except tp when it was scarce last year. My sister in VA said her stores shelves are all empty.

People sick with omicron is impacting some of the empty shelves but most due to lack of supplies in the mnaufacturing process.

If true than shortages would only be marginally delayed ie. cat food has been almost completely out of stock for several weeks.

I was at Costco the other day and after checking out, thanked the cashier and told her to stay safe as there was a huge recurrence of covid in the are. She said, “I know, everyone here is sick.”

My jaw dropped and I bolted from the store.

No mention of fired workers because of COVID vax hysteria?
