Last week, VP Kamala Harris said that the Biden administration did not see the latest Covid-19 variants coming. President Biden said the same thing in a new interview, claiming “nobody saw it coming — nobody in the whole world”:
ANCHOR: "The vice president said in recent days that you didn't see Delta coming, that you didn't see Omicron coming. How did you get it wrong?"

The “follow the science” people don’t seem very science-y, do they?
Yeah, who could have predicted that a virus with 11 mutations would have had a 12th? https://t.co/JDe3CqVp3V

Just how much did this administration “not see it coming”? @phillyrich1 has a thread that shows the Biden administration wasn’t exactly blindsided by these variants:
Who could have seen Delta coming??

Portman, Warner and Cornyn warned Biden about the Delta surge in India. Here's their letter. Biden lied about nobody seeing Delta coming. He was warned. In writing. So where's the investigation into his actions??? When was he first briefed??https://t.co/gBIJQWshLD

April 6th: Who could have seen the variants coming? Joe Biden, day 76 of his administration: "New variants of the virus are spreading and they're spreading quickly…. Everyone's asking, what does that mean?"https://t.co/uzItoA2rRP

Biden then goes on to blame those that think "we're at the finish line already."
On 6/22, he declares Mission Accomplished ("independence from the virus.") From there, cases surged through the summer and he blamed the GOP, misinformation, DeSantis, everyone but his Admin. pic.twitter.com/GDok2aMHOc

Wow.

take the time to read it, if only to confirm the level of lying incompetence that is the Federal Gov't at even the highest level https://t.co/UAJQ22Z2x1— 18SavyFan (@SlangeVarDave) December 23, 2021
“Didn’t see it coming”? If Biden and Harris didn’t see it coming they’ve had their eyes closed the entire time. They also must have had their ears plugged because even their own advisers said they saw it coming:

Maybe the next time Biden is interviewed the reporter could ask him why this discussion is even necessary. After all, last year Biden promised to “shut down the virus” if elected. That certainly hasn’t happened.
