Biden to Sell Stimulus Bill to Congress As Soon As Stimulus Bill Passed
[WashingtonExaminer] The White House is postponing plans for President Biden to address a joint session of Congress to unveil the second phase of a coronavirus recovery plan as it continues to work on a massive relief bill.

Last month, Biden said he would appear before Congress in February to set out his "Build Back Better" recovery plan.

But on Tuesday, when asked about the timing, his press secretary Jen Psaki said there had never been a plan for him to address a joint session this month.

"We don't know where the Feb. 23 date came from. It's a great mystery," she said during the regular daily briefing.

"I've not Nancy Drewed that one out today, but it was never planned to be in February, and we don't have a date for a joint session at this point," Psaki said....

Last week, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said the address would have to wait for the COVID-19 legislation to pass.

"We won't be doing any of that until we pass our COVID bill. That's the first order of business," the California Democrat told reporters at a news conference.
Every time Biden talks for more than a few minutes is a gamble for the Dems.

#5 Let me get this straight, because I don't have my Nancy Drew knickers on.

After it passes, Bygone will then attempt to get it passed?

Actually, I would like to hear from the most popular president in history, the greatest orator since Cicero, about passing the most important piece of legislature in the storied past and future of the United States of America, the direction and goal of the next hundred years and beyond.
