America's baby formula shame: Biden's 53 flights of foreign back-up is only enough to feed infants for a week... leaving shelves still bare and forcing moms to take matters into their own hands
2022-07-23
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Since May, the White House has flown in enough baby formula for 60million bottles - enough for just one week

  • The most recent flights brought only enough to make 802,446 bottles 8oz bottles

  • The formula shortage began six months ago with the sudden closure of the Abbott plant in Sturgis, Michigan

  • Despite slashing red tape to allow foreign products to be parachuted in, Biden has not eased the crisis

  • Abbott's plant has finally reopened but workers must now scramble to make up for a four-month shortfall

  • The company produces 40% of all of the formula in the US so its closure knee-capped the supply chain

  • Despite Biden's efforts, store shelves remain bare and mothers are rationed on how much they can buy

  • Now, mothers tell DailyMail.com how they are scouring Facebook groups and relying on donated breastmilk

#7  This administration is the 2017 Browns. Even if it is mediocre, the next administration will be accurately described as a dramatic improvement.

#5  Just wait for the potable water shortages.

No shit.

Or as our shuffleboard deck commanders would say, "let them drink leftovers from The French Laundry."

#4  I'm sorry but homemade formula is still artificial breast milk.

Being a dik!, this stuff saved my ass at least a dozen times, nevermind the Peter Buttgigs five times a day. Wait, 10, they purchased twins right?

#2  I'm sorry but me and my siblings were raised on homemade formula, so I am afraid we are raising children who can only survive on artificial foods.
