President Biden has been focused on his reelection campaign. But now he’s got bigger issues to worry about.
Because Jill Biden has contracted a disease that no one saw coming.
First Lady Jill Biden has reportedly contracted the COVID-19 virus according to a number of confirmed reports from earlier today.
Jill Biden was tested late on Monday after experiencing what was described as some “mild” symptoms and the test came back positive. Jill Biden is reportedly vaccinated and has received booster shots for the COVID-19 virus as well.
Joe Biden took a test on Monday evening as well but his test came back negative. Though, as per the CDC’s guidelines, he may need to be tested more given that he was spending the weekend with his wife at their vacation house.
This is the second time that First Lady Jill Biden has tested positive for COVID-19, as she did just over a year ago in August of 2022 when her husband Joe contracted the virus and presumably passed it along to her.
Jill Biden is going to be staying in the Biden family home in Delaware to quarantine away from the President during this time.
The White House has released a statement from the Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre stating that Joe Biden will be tested at a regular cadence this week and monitor for symptoms.”
First lady Jill Biden has tested positive for COVID-19 for a second time and is “experiencing only mild symptoms,” according to the White House.
It comes as COVID hospitalizations are rising in the U.S., amid an emergence of new variants. https://t.co/q7Lk1Mneqy pic.twitter.com/EORpEp0rPe

Some alarmists are trying to drum up fear that COVID-19 is back on the rise and that a second pandemic could be on the way if we are not careful to mask up and follow the guidelines of the CDC.
Already, we’re seeing quite a few schools and hospitals reinstate mask mandates for anyone in their institutions. Rutgers University, for example, never even did away with its mask mandate for its students.
Morris Brown College in Atlanta, Georgia has reinstated its COVID-19 mask mandate and tightened rules and regulations for staff and students.
Auburn Community Hospital in New York state has also reinstated their mask mandate, making it mandatory for everyone to be wearing a mask in their ‘facilities’ at all times, saying it must be “worn at all times.”
And recently, the former head of the NIAID Dr. Anthony Fauci said that he worries that Americans won’t listen to the CDC when they recommend future health and social requirements for institutions.
But whose fault is that, really? So many bad actors in government on the federal, state, and local levels abused the state of the pandemic panic to control people because of the fear that many Americans had.
Again, if these vaccines and boosters are so effective, why are we having to worry about another pandemic that is anywhere close to what we experienced in 2020 and 2021?
The whole point of the vaccines is that they are supposed to cut down on life-threatening symptoms and hospitalizations for anyone vaccinated. So why would these mask mandates be necessary once again?
It certainly seems like power is just too sweet for some people to let go of it. The idea that you can get what you want by manipulating Americans and their fears is too tempting for politicians and unelected bureaucrats.
That’s the root of the problem too. Government has way too much control over its citizens.
