Officials refuse to say where an Omicron patient was connected while on route to the United States!!! Officials from the state and federal governments are refusing to say where the first U.S. patient diagnosed with the Omicron strain of the coronavirus traveled en way to California from South Africa, where the virus is thought to have been transmitted. The White House said on Wednesday that the first Omicron variant case had been discovered in San Francisco in a South African visitor aged 18 to 49 years old. The announcement appeared to back up President Joe Biden's decision to impose a travel ban on South Africa and seven other African countries just days before. There are no direct flights from South Africa to California, implying that the person had to connect through another airport, where he or she may have exposed others to the virus or, similarly, where he or she may have been affected.

Biden Says We Need More Moms in the Workforce to Compete Globally!!! President Joe Biden paid a visit to a Connecticut childcare center on Friday to promote his multibillion-dollar spending bills that would support child and elder care. The president said that his "Build Back Better" bill was focused on human infrastructure in order to resurrect the economy. "How can we compete in a world when millions of American parents, particularly mothers, are unable to work?" Biden enquired. "Because they can't afford child or elder care?" you might wonder. The cost of childcare in America, according to Biden, makes it difficult for both parents to work. If his budget recommendations were implemented, he guaranteed that no middle-class family would spend more than 7% of their income on child care. "That will assist parents in re-entering the workforce and making ends meet," Biden added. Biden warned that 12 years of public education was no longer suff...
