Joe Biden finally came out of the White House private residence to address the American people Thursday evening. Not surprisingly, Biden lied to them on numerous occasions as well as misleading the public with some of his statements. He repeatedly failed to give credit to the Trump administration for all the work that it did to get vaccines developed in historic time.
“A year ago, we were hit with a virus that was met with silence and spread unchecked,” Biden falsely claimed. The truth is, on December 31, China reported the coronavirus to the World Health Organization, which came after people had been getting sick with the virus for weeks. Just a few days later, the Trump administration began to repeatedly reach out to the communist Chinese government in an attempt to get into the nation and help respond to the outbreak. China refused to allow U.S. and international scientists into their country.
Additional early actions taken by the Trump administration include:
January 6: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued a Level 1 travel notice for Wuhan, China due to the spreading coronavirus.
January 7: The CDC established a coronavirus incident management system to better share and respond to information about the virus.
January 11: The CDC updated a Level 1 travel health notice for Wuhan, China.
January 17: The CDC began implementing public health entry screening at the three U.S. airports that received the most travelers from Wuhan — San Francisco, New York's JFK, and Los Angeles.
January 20: Dr. Fauci announced that the National Institutes of Health was already working on the development of a vaccine for the coronavirus.
January 21: The CDC activated its emergency operations center to provide ongoing support to the coronavirus response.

All of those actions were taken before China even launched their quarantine of Wuhan, a city of 11 million people, on January 23. To say that the pandemic was met with “silence,” as Biden said, is patently false.
Biden claimed he is putting the country on a "war footing" to fight the virus.
"That’s why I’m using every power I have as President of the United States to put us on a war footing to get the job done. It sounds like hyperbole, but I mean it: a war footing. And thank God we’re making some real progress now. On my first full day in office, I outlined for you a comprehensive strategy to beat this pandemic. And we have spent every day since attempting to carry it out. Two months ago, the country — this country didn’t have nearly enough vaccine supply to vaccinate all or near all of the American public. But soon we will."
The irony of his lies is that, while saying he's putting the U.S. on a "wartime footing," it it is the same language President Trump used in mid-March of last year. Referring the virus as the "enemy" and the fight as a "war," Trump said, "One day we'll be standing up here and say, 'Well, we won.' And we're going to say that, as sure as you're sitting there, we're going to win. And I think we're going to win faster than people think, I hope," adding,"If we do this right, our country -- and the world, frankly -- but our country can be rolling again pretty quickly. Pretty quickly."
Former HHS Assistant Secretary for Health Admiral Brett Giroir canceled out Biden's lie before he even spoke it. As, the federal official overseeing coronavirus testing efforts, Giroir has repeatedly hit the Biden administration for its false claim that the Trump administration left them “starting from scratch,” with “no plan” to carry out vaccinations, and failed to secure enough vaccine supply. Even left-wing publications and fact-checkers have debunked these claims.
During Biden's speech last night, Girior tweeted: “I am so tired of the continuing lies that @potus inherited a #COVID19Vaccine mess, when in fact 99% of current vaccine manufacturing and distribution is EXACTLY as planned and explicitly described by Trump Administration’s Operation Warp Speed,"
Though Biden claims "there was no vaccine" when he came into office, not only had he been vaccinated in December but the Trump administration had order 800 million doses of both the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, more than enough to immunize the entire U.S. population..

Biden again, as he has done numerous times, tried to take credit for the vaccine, giving no credit for President Trump's "Operation Warp Speed." He didn't even refer to it.
"We’ve been working with the vaccine manufacturers — Pfizer, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson — to manufacture and purchase hundreds of millions of doses of these three safe, effective vaccines. And now, at the direction and with the assistance of my administration, Johnson & Johnson is working together with a competitor, Merck, to speed up and increase the capacity to manufacture new Johnson & Johnson vaccine, which is one shot.
"In fact, just yesterday, I announced — and I met with the CEOs of both companies — I announced our plan to buy an additional 100 million doses of Johnson & Johnson vaccines. These two companies — competitors — have come together for the good of the nation, and they should be applauded for it."
However, the "breakthrough touted by Biden was first conceived by Trump officials last year, culminating in a Jan. 4 conference call arranged between Merck and Johnson & Johnson’s senior leaders," The Washington Post noted.
The Washington Post also reported Thursday that at least one pharmaceutical executive is continually baffled by Biden's claims about the vaccines.:
"Moncef Slaoui — a registered Democrat and pharmaceutical industry veteran who helped lead Trump’s Operation Warp Speed initiative to speed vaccine development — expressed bewilderment about the blame directed by Biden and his top advisers at the early immunization effort, which equipped the United States with multiple vaccines as well as contracts allowing the government to snap up more supply than any other country."
“Honestly I find that unwarranted, unwise and un-understandable,” said Slaoui, who resigned at the Biden administration’s request. “I’m amazed that people felt the need to belittle the work that was done.”
All of this comes against the backdrop of Biden claiming that he wants the country to unify and heal while also saying that the bitter political fighting needs to come to an end.

ABC News noted earlier this week that the unity Biden calls for is undermined by his ongoing false narrative that the current administration inherited a mess. Indeed, Biden and his top aides have declined to give the Trump administration credit on the nation’s CCP virus vaccine rollout while relying heavily on a system established by the President Trump' virus task The playbook they are using is the one written by President Trump.
Biden continued his lies, and grandstanded by claiming May 1 as a date that everyone will be able to get the vaccine.:
"It’s truly a national effort, just like we saw during World War II. Now because of all the work we’ve done, we’ll have enough vaccine supply for all adults in America by the end of May. That’s months ahead of schedule. And we’re mobilizing thousands of vaccinators to put the vaccine in one’s arm. Calling on active duty military, FEMA, retired doctors and nurses, administrators, and those to administer the shots. …
"First, tonight, I’m announcing that I will direct all states, tribes, and territories to make all adults — people 18 and over — eligible to be vaccinated no later than May 1. Let me say that again: All adult Americans will be eligible to get a vaccine no later than May 1. That’s much earlier than expected. Let me be clear: That doesn’t mean everyone’s going to have that shot immediately, but it means you’ll be able to get in line beginning May 1. Every adult will be eligible to get their shot.
"To do this, we’re going to go from a million shots a day that I promised in December, before I was sworn in, to maintaining — beating our current pace of two million shots a day, outpacing the rest of the world."
These remarks may be the biggest lies told in Biden's propaganda.. Trump contracted 800 million vaccine doses, enough for 400 million people, which is more than the U.S. population, before he left office.
As far as the vaccination timeline is concerned, Lt. Gen. Paul Ostrowski (Ret.), Operation Warp Speed Supply, Production & Distribution Director, stated in November that “100% of Americans that want the vaccine will have had the vaccine” by June. That is very similar to the goal that Biden announced last night.
Biden finished with yet one more lie.
"When I came into office, you may recall, I set a goal that many of you said was, kind of, way over the top. I said I intended to get 100 million shots in people’s arms in my first 100 days in office. Tonight, I can say we are not only going to meet that goal, we’re going to beat that goal."
This is false. On Trump’s final day in office, 1.6 million vaccines were given to Americans and the pace of vaccinating a million Americans a day had effectively been met just two days after Biden took office. Data compiled from various states and the CDC showed that the rates of vaccination had been increasing in the weeks before Biden took over and continued to increase at approximately the same pace throughout Biden’s first week in office.
This is what we can expect from Joe Biden. He has lied, plagiarized and misdirected throughout his entire 50-year career. He will continue to speak lies, only these are being put in his mouth by others.
Joe Biden is to senile to put this speech together, much less give it without days of practice. He and Jill have no shame. They have always wanted to live in the White House. Now they do. How long will it last? How much worse will it get?
