#1 Abbott puts this info out on a Saturday, one day after the US Inspector General announces an investigation into the FDA's role in the crisis. Sounds like the FDA's Califf called the Abbott CEO begging for Abbott to start up immediately this weekend.

#2 Abbott has been saying they would restart production in early June, and here we are. The only odd thing is that they started the lines up on a Saturday.

#3 Plenty of fentanyl, abortion pills, kiddie COVID masks, JABS, and 'medical' marijuana, but no baby formula. Strange, very strange.

Besoeker - You may have hit on a solution to the problem.

Make Baby Formula Illegal, and it will be plentiful supply, at least during this administration.

Then states can decriminalize it to a mandatory Phone call and $1 fine if caught.

#5 Man! How bad did the polling have to be for the FDA bureaucrats to cave?

#6 Makes you wonder if the Abbott people got a call from the Puppet Show/Jill directly?
This continuing PR nightmare is hugely damaging to the remaining meager credibility that remains to their control of power.

The Faustian Bargain between Jojo and the Kalorama Cabal always had an exit ejection seat strategy for when he became incapable of taking further political damage as he implemented their agenda of a Watermelon Dream Future (Green outside, deep Red fruit and seeds inside).
So the Puppet Show is seeing the predicate for Jojo's mid-summer departure building, and his own brief glimpses of situational awareness suggest he thinks he actually is the President, and is increasingly going off script and is dangerously unfocused on actual issues. A lifetime of learned soundbites from the past often are inconsistent with reality, especially if mangled in Biden Word-Salad. Biden Inc is approaching its Planned Parenthood Moment.

#7 Kalorama nonsense is QAnon for people who should know better.
