BECAUSE SCIENCE! Biden Decides COVID Emergency Over May 11th, Gets Blasted by Conservatives

posted by Hannity Staff - 1.31.23

For real this time, Joe?

President Biden has announced that the COVID-19 pandemic emergency will end on May 11th —8 months after he announced it was over at the Detroit Auto Show. I don’t know, Joe…fool us twice…

“We still have a problem with COVID,” Biden said at the Detroit Auto Show in September 2022. We’re still doing a lot of work on it. It’s — but the pandemic is over.”

Prominent conservative voices and members of the GOP blasted Biden’s announcement on Twitter.

From Fox News:

Rep. Thomas Massie, a Republican from Kentucky, tweeted “Republicans already getting results. This week we are voting to end the COVID emergency. In response, Biden announces HE IS going to end the COVID-19 emergency declarations. Now that Biden is trying to avoid embarrassment, how will democrats vote? What about the vax mandates?”

Sen. Chuck Grassley tweeted “Pres Biden says he will end COVID-19 Emergency Declarations on May 11 About [sic] time! Ive [sic] voted 2x end COVID-19 National Emergency Declaration Need to end exec emergency powers Its commonsense since Biden said on Sept 18 ‘pandemic is over’ I support some flexibilities incl telehealth”.

Phil Kerpen, a free market policy analyst, tweeted “Biden announces 3+ more months of fake COVID emergency on the eve of the first ever House vote on immediate termination. Senate had 62 bipartisan votes to terminate back in November! Media dutifully parrots White House spin.”

Some commented on the suspicious timing of Biden’s announcement.

“Republicans schedule vote to end COVID emergency. Biden announces end to COVID emergency,” Darrel Issa, a former Republican Representative from California, tweeted.
