Since there are millions of Americans who have not been persuaded by, you know, the various government campaigns to get vaccinated,\u201d&nbsp;Lippman <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/press-briefings\/2022\/01\/05\/press-briefing-by-press-secretary-jen-psaki-and-port-envoy-to-the-white-house-supply-chain-task-force-john-porcari-january-5-2022\/\">began<\/a>, asking why Biden has not \u201cfocused more on kind of scolding the unvaccinated to try to tell them, \u2018Hey, this is not working for society and, you know, we keep getting these shutdowns?&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>Psaki responded by pointing to the number of Americans who have gotten the shot over the last year, as about 70 percent of the U.S. population is considered fully vaccinated, according to the press secretary.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, our objective has been to continue to convey to the American people the fact that getting vaccinated will help protect them from hospitalization, from death. It will help protect their loved ones. It will help protect their neighbors and their community,\u201d she said, deeming that strategy a resounding success.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIs there going to be any change in strategy in terms of messaging? You know, you guys have \u2014 had, like, the Jonas Brothers and others. But what are we \u2014 you know, Joe Rogan?\u201d Lippman pressed.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cMore Jonas Brothers,\u201d Psaki responded \u2014 an obvious nod to the vaccine PSA TikTok the stars <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@jonasbrothers\/video\/7042763859542871342?referer_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rollingstone.com%2F&amp;referer_video_id=7042763859542871342&amp;refer=embed\">made<\/a> with the president last month.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know, I would say, Daniel, that our approach to date has been that we have looked for trusted messengers. And some of them may have been people who supported President Biden, and many of them were not,\u201d she continued, noting that the most trusted messengers appear to be \u201clocal officials, local leaders, [and] pediatricians.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Despite Lippman\u2019s assertion, Biden has not shied away from lecturing unvaccinated Americans. In a speech announcing his coercive Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) vaccine mandate in September, Biden essentially <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2021\/09\/09\/joe-biden-breaks-unity-pledge-in-angry-attack-on-unvaccinated-americans\/\">broke<\/a> his unity pledge, warning that his \u201cpatience is wearing thin\u201d with unvaccinated Americans.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMany of us are frustrated with the nearly 80 million Americans who are still not vaccinated,\u201d he said, explaining that he understands the&nbsp;\u201canger at those who haven\u2019t gotten vaccinated.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re going to protect vaccinated workers from unvaccinated co-workers,\u201d he vowed in the divisive speech.<\/p>\n<p>CNN has also promoted anger against unvaccinated Americans, featuring&nbsp;NYU professor of bioethics Arthur Caplan on Wednesday, who <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2022\/01\/05\/cnn-medical-guest-says-penalize-unvaccinated-americans-deny-them-affordable-health-insurance\/\">said<\/a> it is time to \u201cblame\u201d and \u201cshame\u201d them.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe can penalize them more. We can say you will have to pay more on your hospital bill. You can\u2019t get life insurance or disability insurance at affordable rates if you aren\u2019t vaccinated,\u201d he declared.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Politico White House reporter Daniel Lippman on Wednesday asked White House press secretary Jen Psaki why President Biden has not focused more on \u201cscolding\u201d unvaccinated Americans, despite the fact that &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1195405","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1195405","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1195405"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1195405\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1195405"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1195405"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1195405"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
