“Science icon” Bill Nye — who is not a scientist — was a regular fixture at the White House during the Obama administration, doing things like grading kids’ science projects. Now he’s back with “Amtrak Joe” Biden to tell us how awesome the infrastructure bill is going to be for the country. And he’s doing it on TikTok, ’cause that’s hip with the young people.
We can’t figure out why the two seem green-screened when zoomed out but live in front of the White House close up. We know this White House and this president are comfortable working on sets. What’s with this? Who is it for?
And neither one is wearing a mask but they do an elbow-bump at the end?

By the way, this was posted by the deputy director of the White House’s office of digital strategy, so be nice in the comments, ’cause he probably worked on it personally.

Are we not saying “cool beans” anymore! When did they drop the beans? Kids are too lazy to say the whole phrase these days.

How much did we pay Bill to do this Christian?

This says a lot of who they think needs to be convinced about their ‘infrastructure’ bill. Bring out the science guy without the resume to match?

They already tried sending out Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, but he’s a big dud who says things like people will never have to worry about the price of gas again once everyone has an electric car.
Why are you not embarrassed right now?

Mechanical engineer pretending to be a scientist touts pork handouts posing as an infrastructure bill. This is perfect

Dad stop, you’re embarrassing me.

Bill Nye knows who will write a check.
— Dr. She's Buried Chest High (@ProdigiousMrsB) November 30, 2021
Since he isn’t a scientist and this bill isn’t about infrastructure, this checks out.

Holy shit you guys are bad at this…

This administration's idea of a scientist: Non-scientist who pushes the administration's political agenda. When he's not doing weird 'gender dances' for kids…
— No, not THAT John Walsh. (@jswriter65) November 30, 2021
Bill Nye knows: he's a professional "actor" who will take a paycheck to promote any nonsense.
— Kel Woodbury (@KelWoodbury) November 30, 2021
why do you Democrats keep trotting out Bill Nye like you think he's helping your cause? The dude isn't a real scientist. He's an actor.
— Captain Smirk (@spacemanspiff76) November 30, 2021
Bill Nye is a dude who got a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering like 50 years ago and then did grade-school science experiments on television for children and now he's a political activist

How desperate are you clowns?!?!?
— Kal El (@TheKryptonian41) November 30, 2021
Pretty desperate.
