What’s Happening:
Not that long ago, Biden signed an order to extend the COVID-19 public health emergency. It’s been nearly three years since the start of this nightmare. Yet Biden and his party keep milking the pandemic–to burn through tax dollars and push whatever mandates they like.
But Biden is in big trouble. He has used the pandemic to bilk the U.S. taxpayer out of trillions. Where did all that money go? Why don’t we have reports on Biden’s COVID spending? So, it looks like Biden is flip-flopping, planning to end the COVID emergency.
From The Post Millennial:
President Joe Biden informed Congress on Monday that he will end two emergency orders regarding the Covid-19 pandemic on May 11, 2023, over three years after they were enacted…
When the emergencies expire, Title 42, a measure put in place by the Trump administration in March 2020 that enables immigration officials to quickly expel migrants due to public health concerns, would be automatically lifted.
It seems Biden wants to end the emergency, so he can welcome even more illegals into the country. Also, he might be trying to cover his spending tracks. But one top GOP senator has some bad news for him.
From Fox News:
Sens. Rand Paul and Joni Ernst are launching an investigation into over $5.4 billion in small business loan fraud as the Biden administration prepares to wind down the COVID-19 pandemic emergency…
“Specifically, PRAC reviewed over 33 million applications and discovered 221,427 applications used fraudulent social security numbers. Of those, 69,323 applications were issued EIDL and PPP loans, totaling over $5.4 billion in funds dispensed to fraudsters,” they wrote.
If Biden thinks he can sweep his reckless spending under the carpet, he is dreaming. Billions of dollars were given out to companies demanding handouts during the COVID pandemic. Many of these applicants, we are learning, used fraudulent Social Security numbers. And they managed to get at least $5.4 billion of taxpayer funds.
That’s just the tip of the iceberg of the kind of unaccounted spending that Biden and his party did during this pandemic. Joe spent the last two years, robbing Americans blind, using COVID for cover. Billions upon billions of dollars went to anything but COVID relief. Some reports suggest Democrats were using the money on everything from “green” tech to bussing migrants.
Sen. Rand Paul is demanding answers from the White House. It is possible Biden wants to quickly end the pandemic, hoping all those files were just… go away (maybe hidden in his garage). But with Republicans in control of at least one chamber of Congress, that isn’t likely.
Biden mortgaged our children’s futures to battle a disease that was rapidly fading. And he has some explaining to do.
Key Takeaways:
- Joe Biden announced he will end the COVID public health emergency this May.
- Rand Paul is conducting an investigation into billions of COVID relief funds that were fraudulently handed out.
- Biden has spent trillions on the COVID pandemic, with little accountability.
