So, it looks like the White House is doing damage control on CrackPipeGate. After The Washington Free Beacon published a report on a grant being offered by the Department of Health and Human Services that would fund, in part, the distribution of crack pipes to “underserved” communities, the Biden administration faced outrage coming from conservatives and others. Even Snopes tried to come to the White House’s rescue.
The Free Beacon reported:
The $30 million grant program, which closed applications Monday

The government has free needle exchanges for addicts. Is a free crack pipe really any different??

To the undeserved on the FJB plantation, let them smoke dope is the word and we, the FJB administration will provide the kits. Unfortunately, the FJB administration did not provide blow straws in the kit so the undeserved can not produce works of art. But never let it be said that FJB is unaware of who are his constituents, and that FJB takes care of them all. FJB is their master.

To date the MO is:
1. Plan to do something ridiculous.
2. Deny the ridiculous thing when called out.
3. Do the ridiculous thing anyway.

They've been doing it for months in San Fransisco. Fittingly the space is a blocked off corner of the United Nations Plaza in tony downtown. The city provides rolling papers, crack pipes and other paraphernalia. Although they do not allow open drug sales within the enclosure of black draping, open drug use is acceptable. The city touts it as an outreach center where the homeless can connect with socialist services. I doubt the "housing" table gets much business, but its there to mollify a public too shell shocked to be shocked anymore.
Hey, if it works in San Fran...it will work everywhere! C'mon kids, let's put on show!

They are going to do it. They will just get the money from Soros. Buy and hand out the pipes and then pay Soros back from another fund.

Sure you did. Ya just didn't expect the pushback from conservatives AND black people. Illegals get reparations and the inner cities get crack pipes. Boo!
Poster #9 has it right. These people are propping up their failures and making themselves wealthy here in the US and around the world with our tax money. One day it will all be exposed.

#3, Zealots think this stuff up because they are committed ideologues. Nothing is beyond their evil imaginations. It’d like to think it was sheer stupidity but it has gone way beyond that to abject evil. Democrats seem to be channeling their inner Goebbels or Mengele. You really have to dig to get to their level of depravity and inhumanity.

They seem to be lacking a monitor in the push it to the limit left.
lRS wants you to upload your picture Id. Oops we need to back off.
HHS wants to supply crack pipes like the old free needle campaign. Oops we need to back pedal on that.
DOE vaccinating young children without their parents consent. Oops got called out on that one too.

This has been done, before, in San Francisco and Seattle. The idea behind including pipes in the idiotically-named ''safe smoking kits'' is that smoking the substances is ''safer'' than injecting it with hypodermic needles due to HIV and Hepatitis C. If the HHS plan did not include pipes, then why did Jen Psucki claim that it was intended to reduce HIV infections?
Is anyone going to ask her how lip balm and alcohol wipes are going to prevent HIV infection or make drug useage supposedly ''safer''?

This is a perfect example of the racism that infects these communist. This is all for the welfare of the Alphabet Peorle and blacks, who everyone in the communist party now in charge just knows cannot stay away from illicit drugs. You know, they don’t have the self-control of the good people in the communist commune.
We are where we are today because people turned a blind eye, a deaf ear, and a thoughtless brain to what has been going on since November 2008. The price we are paying is too high.

Just in time for Black History Month I never knew drug addiction and abuse was so racist. The downtrodden get free 'harm reduction kits' while the white addicts like Hunter Biden have to fend for themselves. $30M smackers down the rabbit hole just like that. Democrats doing the wrong thing again what else to expect from this Kakistocracy led by a demented buffoon.

Police call stuff like this 'drug paraphernalia'. Drug users can have extra charges brought against them for having a crack pipe. Will that still be true if the drug user gets their crack pipe (or needle) from the government?
What's the difference between our government and organized crime? One calls itself a government. It's meant to be a joke, but it seems to be true.
This all reminds me of the old Batman show where in one episode The Penguin becomes mayor of Gotham City.

I thought "safe smoking kits" were a new idea, but I was wrong. There is information online about what British Columbia included in its version of "harm reduction" kits. They come with pipes, tubing, screens, alcohol swabs and even instructions on how to clean your pipe the right way.
Surely a complete list of "safe smoking kit" items to be provided in the US has been created and approved. Surely it cannot be a secret list, and yet the MSM and elected representatives are being told crack pipes aren't part of the kit. Let's have a look at the list.

They may not be specifically, handing out pipes in their "crack kits," although that is a logical component for a "crack kit." But, that is a side issue. The overwhelming question is why is the government providing free "crack" to addicts. Enabling addicts by giving them free "crack" is not helping them, it is making things worse and adding to the national debt.
This is just one more man-made disaster to add to the string of disaster created by the Biden administration. I pray that the Republicans will run some good candidates come the mid-term election. Their record, so far, has been less than great.

Wonder why the biden regime wants the "under served community"...in other words the ghetto plantation citizens high on "junk" and staying home rather than terrorizing their neighborhoods...perhaps the crime stats are causing a problem for the war room psychologists ...who are in crime management control...and losing at every turn...their jobs with the gooberment is in jeopardy...so they came up with this...

We have a family member living on the "streets" doing drugs. Are we to believe that this WH wants to give this family member a crack pipe to "help" him with his drug use? You Sir, FBrandon, are a MURDERER!

Diamond and Silk put out a tweet this morning which said (not a direct quote) - Biden wanted to give $450,000 to each illegal who was separated at the border but all he wants to give American blacks are crack pipes.

This just means they'll find another way to do it .... like the payments to illegal families who had their kids taken away for a month. It will get done, just behind our backs.
What a great way to celebrate Black History Month! I guess the White addicts, the Asian crack hos and the Hispanic druggies will have to get their own "stuff".

GUMMINT DON’T FUND NO STINKING CRACK PIPES!!!
MS. PSAKI: …there was inaccurate information out there, and we wanted to provide clarification on the allowable uses for the HHS Harm Reduction program.
Q So, what is in the safe smoking kit?
MS. PSAKI: A safe smoking kit may contain alcohol swabs, lip balm, other materials to promote hygiene and reduce the transmission of disea- — diseases like HIV and hepatitis.
So, what was the exact language in the HHS Grant?
List and quantity of harm reduction materials purchased with grant funds including, but not limited to:
o Harm reduction vending machine(s), including stock for machines;
o Infectious diseases testing kits (HIV, HBV, HCV, etc.);
o Medication lock boxes; o FDA-approved overdose reversal medication(as well as higher dosages now approved by FDA);
o Safe sex kits, including PrEP resources and condoms;
o Safe smoking kits/supplies;
o Screening for infectious diseases (HIV, sexually transmitted infections, viral hepatitis);
o Sharps disposal and medication disposal kits; o Substance test kits, including test strips for fentanyl and other synthetic drugs;
o Syringes to prevent and control the spread of infectious diseases;
o Vaccination services (hepatitis A, hepatitis B vaccination); and
o Wound care management supplies.
And again, what is in a Safe Smoking Kit?
https://www.interiorhealth.ca/sites/default/files/PDFS/handout-safer-smoking-supplies.pdf
Yep, it has alcohol swabs and Vaseline, just like Psaki said…. But wait, there’s more!!!

Of course, they would never admit it. I bet the contract to supply those kits will go to a Chinese manufacturer.
Probably a company Hunter has a deal made with already.
