Senator Joni Ernst Says Biden's Vaccine Mandate Is Timed as 'Diversion Away From 9/11'

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Senator Joni Ernst is accusing President Joe Biden of diverting attention away from the 20th anniversary of the September 11 attacks with his recently-announced vaccine mandates.

While appearing on the Fox News show America Reports, the Republican senator from Iowa told hosts John Roberts and Sandra Smith that the Biden administration is "leading by coercion" with the timing of his announcement.

"I would agree with the point that is being made by so many of my colleagues that this is a diversion away from 9/11 away from the 20th anniversary and away from the debacle that was his Afghanistan withdrawal," said Ernst.

Ernst said that Americans who were left in Afghanistan "should be a very pressing issue for the president," and that Biden "doesn't want to deal with that."

[The Magistrate]

6. Surprised She Didn't Call It A False Flag, Sir

Everything with these cretins is either a diversion or a false flag, in furtherance of heaven knows what, that they couldn't define if faced with a bullet for failure in the attempt.

It makes them feel so wise, to have penetrated beneath the surface to the hidden depths they alone can see....

[RANDYWILDMAN]

7. Let's remember again, 9/11 is a huge republican failure ! Still is Joni

that it truly is. 20 years of needless war in two countries.

thousands of soldiers dead and thousands wounded.

Trillions of dollars wasted...

[Diamond_Dog]

8. This is too easy ...

Joni whines about Biden not properly commemorating the 20th anniversary of 9/11?

Like her Lord and Master is doing? Providing commentary on a boxing match?

How come there’s no outrage by the magat crowd over Trump completely ignoring this event. After all, they all blather on about how he”loves America”. (Gag, gag)

[Poiuyt]

9. That's what I came her to post

Trump is honoring 9/11 by hosting a boxing match between has-beens?

[Hassler]

10. And Iowa reelected Phony Joni

[Boomerproud]

11. Nice going Iowa.

[SergeStorms]

12. While their hero....

remembers the horrors of 9/11 by announcing a boxing event at the Seminole casino.

Cry me a fucking river, you republican jackass.

[The Wizard]

13. She has nice teeth

[sinkingfeeling]

14. So, she thinks everyone in the country should be celebrating G.W. Bush's failures? I, for one,

am avoiding all these 9/11 specials. I don't want to relive that day. Remember your loved ones who perished that day and I'll remember my losses.

[Ilsa]

15. Whaaaat?

[spanone]

16. deflection of the day....so far

[DemocraticPatriot]

17. What an idiot.

The "timing" is about trying to save lives from COVID.

I only wish it had come sooner.

[emulatorloo]

18. Kovid Kim wants school children to die and this is the best Joni can come up with?

Sorry, Joni, you are a lying tool. Hell of a way to politicize your constituents fighting for our lives.

[gratuitous]

20. You're griping about diversions now, Senator?

After four years of jumping every time the former guy said Frog," now you're all about non-existent diversions? But you spend your time dwelling on a Republican failure 20 years ago while the rest of us continue to deal with the fallout of last year's colossal Republican failure.

[Progressive Jones]

23. Ever since that fateful day 20 years ago,

the right wing has been wallowing in it.

I can remember FOX puppets exclaiming, "This is our generation's Pearl Harbor!!!", as if they were fucking proud of it
