Fox News White House correspondent Peter Doocy went into the weekend on a bang, hammering the Biden administration during Friday’s briefing about the sudden change no longer requiring vaccinated people to mask or socially distance indoors and outdoors. Specifically, he wondered what the “big breakthrough” was since President Biden had said in March that such a change was “Neanderthal thinking.”Doocy first told Press Secretary Jen Psaki there’s been “a lot of questions about the timing of the CDC’s announcement yesterday,” so he first wanted to know whether anyone on Team Biden had the update done out of “political reasons.”

It's no surprise that Jen "Psycho" Psaki continues with her slithering snake answers. Her role is ensure Joe "Dementia" Biden is always shown in the best light.
You heard it here first. Look for a "privileged" person to replace her.

Quickly knocking out the face mask mandate was a White House distraction from the looming gas shortage up the East Coast.

The way that Psaki snapped back 'No' so fast when Doocy asked whether it was done for political reasons means that it was done for exactly that....not a doubt in my mind.

The national mask mandate began 14 months. No plan, no metrics, no milestones toward getting it lifted. Then, it's lifted overnight and our feckless leader takes all the credit because he convinced a nominal percentage of the population to partake of the vaccine developed under Trump's leadership. How about a free rice cooker for everyone, too?

Of course it was political. To apply Mussolini's famous maxim, Everything for the political ends, nothing other than political ends, nothing against the political ends.
There is not meaning outside of the Party.
The masks have been the totem. Biden rode on a mask through the campaign, it's his "blankie", it's the thumb he sucks, it's his sacred text. And he could not quite separate himself from it, the symbol of his power and dominance, and so he went in through the backdoor of --omg-- THE VAXXINES !!!!!

Peter Doocy is rapidly becoming the "White Jeffersons" of reporting ...because he is "movin on up" in his career at FOX and in DC circles as a fantastic reporter.
Keep up the fine reporting and a big thanks to Steve Doocy for raising him right.

The big breakthrough was Biden had to counter his bad policies and talk about the Border, Israel, bad jobs report, no schools opening, that racist indoctrination, inflation, his spending of taxpayer money to absolutely ruin the economy, etc., etc.

I believe that they are taking this action about the masks because they are losing control. the appearance of losing control is something that this administration will not allow to happen. A majority of people in the US are saying, enough is enough. I have not worn a mask in months. I shop where I don't have to wear one. The h3ll with the stores that require one. I will not give them my business.

It’s gotta be tough having Psaki’s job. When you have no core beliefs or principles, you forget what you said and thought a day before. Oh, what a tangled web we weave...

#10. That was my first thought when they announced lifting the mask mandates. I don’t think they could have kept them on is since the CDC made their announcement. We went out yesterday and did not wear our masks and no one said a word. Whatever the reason, we were done with them. After being vaccinated and waiting the two weeks after for it to fully go into effect, we decided we were not going to wear them again. If any establishment still requires them, we will not shop there. We are done. Fed up and will not be asked to do something that we know is ineffective just because they tell us to. Freedom!

Indeed. Not long ago, we had the ....nation's top infectious disease expert...™, Dr. Faustus, telling us we could expect to be wearing masks and following protocols through 2022, at least. What happened?

It’s simple - the mask fear porn has outlived its political usefulness and has become an albatross around the demonrats’ collective necks.

The democrat base is finally getting it through their heads that masks don't work for a virus. Also, the fun of wearing one for virtue signaling has worn off.

Wonder if some of the liberal idiots will decide to quit wearing masks while driving alone in their cars? Doubt it, those people are complete brainwashed zombies. Always good for a laugh, though.

The dims and msm have come to realize that weaponizing covid 19 has run its course and that Americans are on to their con. But, they may get the last laugh if it is true that delayed severe side effects from the vaccinations show up later this year that result in massive fatalities. Having very reluctantly received the moderna shots, I hope these reports are false. If the reports are true, the table is set to blame Trump and Operation Warp Speed.

#18, I don’t know if the reference to Dr. Faustus is original to you but if it is, or even if it isn’t, bravo! Triple standing ovations. The similarity of names and bios between Faustus and Fauci was just hanging there to be hit out of the park by some clever person. The reference you made says it all - a prideful fool who sold his soul to Lucifer in order to claim personal brilliance.

I believe it is, #24. I've used it for some time. Same as I lay claim to "Occasional-Cortex". It was gratifying to see that one be used by a syndicated columnist. I think I coined "Sir Edmund" for HRC, but can't be sure. Thanks.

The big break through was probably something Fauci needs to be unmasked for. Sunday talking head shows or some such B.S.

Peter Doocy has turned out to be an absolute gem. Promoted to the WH Press Corps from being Fox’s Reporter On The White House Lawn, he has methodically driven both Joebama and Psaki to distraction with his on-the-mark questions.
We don’t usually watch Outnumbered, but the female radiologist Dr. Saphier (sp?) who was among those commenting on Covid on Fox News throughout the last year (generally spouting the institutional line while I wondered what a radiologist knew about viral diseases) has apparently been released from bondage. She was suddenly critical of the CDC’s doing a sudden 180 on masks “based upon science” when even she had noticed the “science” bore early April datelines.
There is no more science behind this change than there has been behind much of Biden’s mandating…and posturing.

Went to a memorial service held outside for a dear friend. Not many were wearing masks. And people were hugging.
At the flea market today shoppers were wearing masks(?). Looked dumb. If I am outside I refuse to wear a mask.
