The president invoked the Defense Production Act to produce more baby formula. He could also use it to declare a medical emergency and expand Medicare to everyone; declare a climate emergency and build a clean energy grid; and cancel the college loan debt.

That post is idiotic. Your run for the Democratic Presidential nomination ended right where it should have. 🚽

This is so wrong. That is a gross misuse of the act. How do you propose paying it back? If you give me tax the wealthy more, you’re delusional. Pay back the student loans you take out! That simple. Medicare to all? Who’s paying for it?

At a time of massive inflation this sounds like a horrible idea. You must really want Biden to lose in 2024

Marianne, you are simply a crazy person. You said with a straight face that the GOV should send out reparations before Covid happened. Your type of logic is why our GOV let our cities burn all summer with not only consequences but being bailed out by you dems. You are a monster.

3 U.S. “suppliers” of baby formula: Nestle/Abbot/Mead-Nestle grew exponentially after WWI, WWII-we can consider our Terror War/Covid WWIII-Abbot is a pharmaceutical-Mead processes wood pulp-declare emergency/further subsidy of Big Pharma is putting fox in charge of chicken coop.

Yes, leverage the power of the presidency. Trump showed us that there is practically no limit to said power. Turn it on the opposition for better purposes
