  1. This is what competent government looks like. And it can transform tens of millions of lives. Elections matter.

    1. @Peter T sounds like your obsessed with trump. The hat trick of the media and establishment combo. We used to call it propaganda. Dems care more about trump than anybody. Thats why your still talking about him. They made it about him. You are him!

    2. @HiSomebody TrackingMuch? the kurds survived thousands of years without americas help. We got no business in other countries fighting wars

    3. @Gabe Dudley we are NOT starting any wars, that bombing was in retaliation for firing on our troops, but I guess you don’t think they need any help right? And trump bombed syria too in 2017, why didn’t you say something then? I seen the impeachment trial and I seen the live videos before the trial and guess what its ALL real, nothing was twisted, you even have testimony from those arrested that say trump asked them to do it. To overthrow an election. Hey moron, it is NOT hate, it is about holding a person accountable for their criminal actions, by your logic I could go out and rob a bank and not be held accountable for it.

  2. Bravo! Now we need to ramp up efforts to change the hearts and minds of “vaccine hesitant” people.

    1. @cocomo Your doctor, or the people who administer the vaccines, will be able to answer all your questions. This is a time when we really need to lean on the advice of medical professionals.

    2. @Keith E No. i dont care about the former pres or his family. Why would i? Omg you people have lost it

    3. @cocomo
      Plenty of information available online. I had my first jab three weeks ago here in the U.K. No side effects & according to the latest data from Oxford Astra Zeneca a 94% positive result that I (& anyone else who has the vaccine) won’t become ill enough to require hospitalisation. A few more weeks before I get the second dose and I can’t wait. I’ve been sheltering at home since March 2020 due to my being disabled. Please don’t worry about the vaccine/s, don’t listen to the conspiracy theorists. It’s safe 🇬🇧🇺🇸 x

    4. @geofo60 Geof Harris I found so many conspiracy theories about ingredients : bat venom, aborted fetuses, etc. It is scary to imagine

    5. @Gabe Dudley still on that same ole crap, Syria fired on our guys but you don’t to help them out. No one is being censored unless you mislead people that could harm them or cause violence. Why don’t you read up on YT TOS, and Twitter’s and any other social media site,

  3. Thank goodness there is an adult sitting behind the Resolute desk & not a tantrum throwing orange orangutan!
    Now CoVid is number 1 problem to be solved.

  4. When you’re the president and don’t spend all day rage tweeting, watching cable news, and playing golf….turns out there ARE enough hours in the day to get your actual work done. 🤔🙄😅😂

    1. @Gabe Dudley – Because Biden and a lot of other normal people are too busy actually getting things done, instead of leaving likes on YouTube videos.

    2. @Gabe Dudley they don’t need to, Biden is working as a president should, he doesn’t need to get in front of a camera for that audience like trump did.

    3. @Johnny McMerica but they like msnbc videos? Nice effort though. I like to hear excuses the ego makes to dismiss reality

  5. Abbott has confirmed that he is not working for the Texans. His priority is to his donors. And he will continue to work against Texans, until he is voted out of office. His actions has made that pretty clear !!?

    1. I live in Texas and I just cringed when I heard our stupid governor make this announcement. It is so obvious he is doing it to benefit the corporations who line his pockets. Republicans become more reprehensible by the day. And this is on top of what happened with the Texas grid just a week ago………republican policy harms people. Sorry, but that is the truth!

    2. @J Zander I wonder if this is a bit of mis-direction from the power grid problems in the Texas by Abbott. And Houston has all four strains of the virus and only 12% had the shot.
      Where is the logic behind this mandate?

  6. He knows it needs to be done. This is not political. This is humanitarian. Do not forget the half 1,000,000+ that have died!

  7. Abbott got a call from Trump telling him to lift the mask mandate. It’s all about politics! So sad! Just my opinion….

  8. Bipartisan confirmations that’s progress republicans ..why you can’t do that for americans

  9. The Republican governor of Texas needs to resign. Now. We all want things to go back to normal, only when it is safe to do so. Not when your state has a high rate of Covid

  10. Abbott is really trying to get more Texans sick. He obviously had his leash tugged by his corporate donors.

  11. Texas has now moved ahead of Florida for the stupid award. First freeze everyone with no electricity, now spread Covid like wildfire. Some leadership.

  12. If Republicans would have made teachers a priority months ago, schools would have been reopened already.
