White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki is hoping you have a memory like Joe Biden as she claims that our alleged President has never ever been "pro-lockdown" and that this so-called administration is focused on pushing all the "tools" the country has in its toolbox to fight the dreaded COVID-19.
She said that most of the lockdowns occurred under Trump, although she didn't mention him by name.
This came during a press conference after a reporter asked her for a comment about a recent working study by Johns Hopkins University in which they found that lockdowns had "little to no effect on public health" during the pandemic. In fact, the study found that it made only a 0.2% difference which is statistically about zero.
In other words, lockdowns to avoid Covid deaths makes even less sense than banning driving to avoid road fatalities or cleaning your roof gutters.
“I would note that the president has been clear[ly mumbling], we’re not pushing lockdowns," the ginger began. "We’ve not been pro-lockdown. That has not been his agenda. Most of the lockdowns actually happened under the previous president. What our objective has been is to convey that we have the tools we need to keep our country open thanks to the president’s leadership and focus on fighting the virus. And that’s reflected in the fact that 98% of schools are open, over 210 million Americans are fully vaccinated.”
“We have the tools to avoid lockdowns and we’re not moving back and that’s our intention at this point,” she claimed.
“You guys do believe that lockdowns were more harmful than helpful?” the reporter then pushed.
The study was published by the Institute for Applied Economics, Global Health, and the Study of Business Enterprise. It was conducted by three professors who also found that lockdowns “imposed enormous economic and social costs” and are “ill-founded and should be rejected as a pandemic policy instrument.”
In response to the reporter’s questions, Psaki advised the media to ask the White House medical experts about the findings of the study, while also saying it was inaccurate to say the Biden White House ever pushed lockdowns.

But is that true? Didn't Biden say that he would not rule out lockdowns if scientists recommend them?
And didn't he also say that all things considered, he was open to returning to lockdowns?

“Again I would point you to our scientific experts [LOL] on the specifics of a study,” Psaki responded. “But the president’s agenda the president’s approach has not been locked down it has been using the tools we have to prevent that.”
While Biden has never explicitly stated during his presidency that he was in favor of the lockdown, after Texas and Mississippi relaxed restrictions including business’ operational capacities, he indeed mumbled and apparently called the decisions “Neanderthal thinking.” He went on to mock them and called people who disagree with him "fatty" and a "sons of a b***h," as he ate a vanilla ice cream cone as Jill wiped his chin and led him carefully off the podium.

“I think it’s a big mistake,” Biden said in a response to a question about the two states. “Look, I hope everybody’s realized by now these masks make a difference. [They don't.] We are on the cusp of being able to fundamentally change the nature of this disease because of the way in which we’re able to get vaccines in people’s arms. We’ve been able to move that all the way up to the end of May to have enough for every American, to get every adult American to get a shot.”
“The last thing, the last thing, the last thing we need is Neanderthal thinking that in mean time everything’s fine, take off your mask,” Biden mush-mouthed. “Forget it, man. It’s still matters. … And it’s critical, critical, critical, critical, critical, that they follow the science. Follow the science. Wash your hands, hot water, do it frequently. Make bubbles but don't play with them because it bothers Jill. Do it a lot. A lot. Wear a mask, maybe a black mask or a cool Flash Gordon mask, do they still make them? And stay socially distance. Be downwind of others, like hunters. And I know you all know that I know that, I wish the heck some of our elected officials knew it. Maybe I ought to take them in back of the barn and show them how a mask helps with making ugly people look okay. Okay?"
