Speaking to governor's today about Covid, President Joe Biden claimed that "there is no federal solution" to delivering more wide-spread testing. It was last year that Biden vowed to "shut down the virus." (Tweet) "We got to beat it back before we shut it down. Look, it's going to take time worldwide. In order to be COVID, we have to shut it down worldwide," he said as he announced new federal measures to beat back the scourge. "Look, there is no federal solution," Biden said in response to a question from Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson. "This gets solved at the state level." (Video) CORRECTION*

No federal mandates of any kind. That will do the trick. Oh, and cut all federal funding to states that insist on facemasks. Watch how quickly covid is then treated like a bad cold season.

If this was President Trump, the media would be chalking this up as a "lie", right?
Interesting that he makes this type of statement now, ahead of the SCOTUS hearing. Maybe they've been tipped off by some on the liberal side that even they don't see a Federal mandate as Constitutional?
There are no coincidences with democrats, remember.
Wasn't President Trump scolded by the democrats for not forcing a Federal action, which he knew was not something he could do, and he allowed the States to do what they needed with assistance from FEMA?

Then Fauci needs to get off the national airwaves.
If it combines with his retirement, so be it.

"Dear, America. We have effed up covid as much as we possibly can. Guess what? You really can't stop it. So I throw in the towel and I suggest you contact Ron DeSantis for guidance". "I have ice cream to consume".

The “man” is a caricature. A joke. A gutless wonder. The face of Obama’s third term headed by the despicable Ron Klain. He never had a plan. He never had an original idea in his life. Heck, he even stole someone’s life and presented it as his own. He used a panic stricken nation, thanks little Tony, and played on people’s fears. Biden and his wife aren’t the brightest people to occupy the White House.

Aw, beans and disease!! Biden is trying to make a federal program into a state's rights issue. It won't happen. This charlie-vector one-niner is his baby and he'll have to rock it.

I agree with other posters. If there is NO federal solution why is he allowing Fauci to continually drive one in the media. If he’s blaming state governors for test shortages, then leave ALL Covid decisions to the states the way it should have been from the beginning. Drop the mandates including masks on air travel and for employers. Mandates are unwanted federal solutions.

Great, now I have that Police song stuck in my head - There is no political solution... Our so-called leaders speak...it's the rhetoric of failure... Who knew that way back in 1981 Sting was prognosticating the future Brandon Administration?

Isn’t that what Trump said? And didn’t Biden say he would solve it at the federal level?

The only plan Biden has that is working is the one that completely fubars America. That one is working just fine at this moment.

Here we see Biden trying to bail out of his responsibility to nationally manage the COVID pandemic by now claiming that there is no federal solution to that serious international situation, and effectively trying to toss that political hot potato onto the backs of the Republican Governors. But remember back during the presidential campaign when Biden was publicly blaming Trump and was repeatedly telling the American people that he had a plan to shutdown COVID. But now it is obvious the Biden had no such plan. It will be interesting to see how the media will play Biden’s flip flop on COVID, as if the federal government has no solution to shutdown COVID, then Biden should not be putting out all sorts of federal mandates.
Historically the stupidest people of all regarding this current Biden fiasco, are the voters of Delaware who kept re-electing the totally incompetent Biden as their US Senator for about 40 years.

There is no federal solution to the border crisis as well, Joe. Tell Kamala to stop working so hard on the border crisis and turn it over to the states. Then start taking notes.
