A real gun, wow. I imagined it would be a fake one.

Tell us again how the Biden Administration won’t vaccinate 100 million Americans in 100 days ??

Are your childish 10-year-old-like emojis real or just make-believe? Do you and your Star Trek and Star War buddies throw around emojis like they you are incurring the wrath of Khan? Which laser do you take to the Star Wars clown show? Make-believe rocks.

Sally I’m not surprised you’d rather talk about Star Trek Wars than 100 million vaccines in just 59 days,

Keep your tears flowing ??

I think the low vaccine rates aren't as simple as just Trump-followers refusing to get the shot. There is another significant group that is hesitant to get the vaccine as well and they are disproportionately respresented in the South - African-Americans.

Looking at the states you listed as best/worst for vaccinations in terms of race (white/black):

Best States:

NM (39% white / 2% black)

AK (67% /4%)

CT (66% / 10%)

SD (86% / 1%)

MA (81% / 9%)

RI (84% / 6%)

Worst States:

GA (58% / 32%)

AL (59% / 31%)

TN (78% 17%)

TX (74% / 12%)

MS (59% / 37%)

Also, Monkeys Typing mentioned that the Upper Midwest red states had higher vaccine rates than Southern red states. Again, race could be a factor in this discrepancy.

White/Black population percentages for Upper Midwest:

SD (86% / 1%)

ND (90% / 1%)

MN (85% /5%)

IA (90% / 4%)

WI (86% / 6%)

MI (79% 14%)

I haven't seen the national statistics, but in Georgia I'd say we have been good at getting shots into the arms of white liberals and Asians. We haven't done so well with other groups.

GA just opened it up today for everyone, so we'll see how the numbers are impacted.

They are the ones in crisis.

It certainly has ramifications to the US, but I hope you feel concern for those fleeing to find a better life.

I agree.

That's why I'm disappointed that Biden is telling them to stay home. That's easy for him to say while he's living in the White House and has a home in Delaware.

The Secret Service attempted to collect documents related to the sale of a gun to Hunter Biden after his wife allegedly threw it behind a dumpster in Delaware in 2018, Politico reports

Not content with hitting the lofty goal of 100 Americans vaccinated in 100 days, President Biden is setting the bar even higher.

200 vaccinated Americans million in 100 days. It’s very ambitious but you wouldn’t bet against him.

Silly Sally got this one ALL wrong ?

Surprised no one is reporting on the Press Conference, very hard to watch.

Fact Checkers should have a fleld day with this!!

It’s my favorite Canadian.

Remember when that rascal PM of yours kissed the former First Lady ?

The incredible take away from the press conference is that Biden after hitting 100 million vaccinations has revised the target up, remarkable success story.

Biden is actually good at these press conferences. He's going over basic strategy, not getting caught in the weeds, and making political points.

One of the big points he's making is that the Dem policies are not uniting Congress, but they are uniting voters, D and R. That's going to be the biden doctrine: go around congress and appeal to R voters.

My god. He’s getting out of breath just standing and talking. This is not good.

Biden had 8 days of prep, including only approved softball questions, in a controlled rehearsed setting and he still can't hold it together. This is joke. He is incapable of giving a SOTU. His brain is fried.

Are we watching the same thing? I see an old man who's out of breath standing there reading note cards before answering the question...

Biden needs to step aside now.

He wasn’t my top pick but I have to admit he excels at this.

I’m sure even Trump recognizes now that down playing Biden’s abilities so much ahead of the debates was a costly tactic. Very capable indeed and surrounds himself with good people.

The Biden brain decline has accelerated.

Sadly, you are correct. This is very disturbing and what a great exit he had!

He's just completely lost, deer in the headlights.

scroll down a bit you'll see a graph showing how much larger the 2019 surge was (2020 didn't happen because of covid)

Although it's early, sure - the 2021 surge could eventually exceed the 2019 surge.
