President Joe Biden plans to announces new restrictions on travel in the wake of the first case of the ‘omicron’ variant of covid-19 being discovered in the US.

As The Hill reports:

The steps come as the first known U.S. case of the omicron variant was detected in California on Wednesday in a person who had returned more than a week ago from South Africa, where the variant was first detected.

Biden is expected to announce Thursday that his administration, which has already imposed a ban on international travelers from eight southern African nations, will further tighten testing requirements on all other international travelers entering the country.

The new testing policy, which goes into effect early next week, will require international air travelers to present a negative COVID-19 test within 24 hours of their flight, regardless of vaccination status or nationality.

That shortens the time from the current rule, which requires fully vaccinated travelers to present a negative test within three days of their flight. International travelers are already required to be fully vaccinated, but that vaccination policy doesn’t apply to American citizens.

The new rules come as Biden’s popularity continues to wane and he faces the winter season with no end in sight to the pandemic he promised to finally end.

    1. How many times have we EVER eradicated a coronavirus? The common cold, a coronavirus, is still with us and always will be. The Media for political purposes is hyping this virus up into The Black Plague of the 21st century. Sure, some will die of it. The annual flu always kills some, as well. But the CDC itself now admits that this virus is ~99% survivable. And lookee here: the Grand Vax does not protect!

      1. As long as these bastards are in power and want to perpetuate their position of power, all these variants of the corona virus ( or another kind of virus) will be used to control us. Do not trust too much , the twisted or skewed news from the mainstream media….they no longer announce factual news but their opinion and agenda.
        About the virus, as long as they are not weaponized, our natural immune system of our bodies will handle the self-limiting viral infection.
        DO NOT BE AFRAID.

      2. Yes and many people have been saying that these vacines are just to make big pharma money. I say sue big pharma back for all these profits. Oh and many have also pointed out the lies about the deaths, and eb]ven infections of covid…

  1. Major hospital filled with vaccinated suffering from heart and abdominal issues. Many have Covid. If you value your life, do not get the shot.

    1. Another line of BS! They thimk they can frighten us so yhey can cheat again in 2022 THEY CAN FORGRT IT WE WILL NOT COMPLY!

    2. The liar Biden got the so-called covid – 19 vaccine . He probably got a vitamin so people can think that he got the covid vaccine.

      1. Fauci is a doctor only because of his degree …..how many patients did he actually treat? He is simply a political puppet of the administration, made to look like an authority because of the “Dr.” title…. DO NOT LISTEN TO HIS LIES….

  2. First the Dems steal the election then they go about deliberately destroying our country while the GOP seems to do nothing. Not cool. Outrageous.

    1. There are some Republicans that are fighting. 10 States took the biden admin to court over the vax mandates, the federal judge blocked the mandate for those states. That is a huge win for now. I’m proud to say that we live in one of those states. We must continue to fight!! 2022 is right around the corner. We can win again!!! We MUST win again!!!!

      1. I agree but we need a stronger Congress filled with pro acting Republicans to replace the Rhinos. Some of you younger Republicans need to rise up and get yourselves elected.

      2. Somebody has to run against the GOP Rhinos in the Primaries and win….. That is the only way we can get rid of them.

  3. Biden doesn’t even know what he is doing! Nothing he is trying g to enforce on Americans is legal !!!! Someone needs to do something about all the evil things democrats are doing! One thing – vote them all out of office or put them in jail!!!!

  4. Whatever this government suggests is probably 180 degrees off of what is correct. Respond only to the science, not to the self appointed authorities in government who thrive only through fear and control.

  5. Jesus is coming! Isn’t it obvious? Repent of your sins and accept Him as Lord and Savior now before it is too late! If you want to know what is going on now and what the future will be read Matthew 24 and the book of Revelation. That should clear things up.

  6. THERE NEEDS TO BE A TEST FOR ALL BIDEN TYPE’S IN THE WHITE HOUSE TO SEE IF THEY HAVE A FUNCIONAL BRAIN AT ALL, “FOR SURE BIDEN DOESN’T !”

    1. They don’t recall Presidents. They impeach them. He needs to be impeached and sent to Gitmo for the rest of his life.

  7. THIS WILL NEVER END……IT DOES NOT MATTER HOW MANY SHOTS YOU TAKE……FOR THE LIBERALS……IT WILL NEVER BE ENOUGH!!!!!! THIS IS ANOTHER WAY TO CONTROL AMERICANS???????? BIDEN ISSUED THE MASK MANDATE………HE DOES NOT WEAR ONE!!! AND SO IT GOES FOR ANY OF THE DEMS/FRAUDS…..WHO THINK THEY ARE SPECIAL??????? “ONLY FOR THEE…..AND “NOT” ME!!!!!!!!!!!!

  8. im still rofl that biden announces “i got my butt wiped”. thats about as much brain power i think he has left.

  9. The biden administration is full of political idiots. Leave the borders wide open but place restrictions on law-abiding citizens. SUCH A JERK !!!

  10. Here’s what we already know: The virus was manufactured in the Wuhan lab with the help of the US government, Dr. Fauci, Bill Gates, George Soros, etc.

    Here’s what they’re still not telling us: The Wuhan lab continues their research to develop still more virulent and lethal strains of COVID and they are STILL being helped by the US government and Dr. Fauci, Bill Gates, George Soros, etc.

    Here’s what needs to happen: These people need to be charged with crimes against humanity, convicted, and put in front of a firing squad.

  11. The omicron variant is the mildest of all according to the head of the Health Department in South Africa who has seen the effect on patients first hand. But of course, Biden, Fauci and the rest of the corrupt illegal communist Democrats in the US government don’t listen to the science, even though they preach they do. Another bullshit Biden action that Will be shown to be worthless.
    They continually lie to the American people and should be executed for treason every last one.
    And let us not forget all the heads and members of the FBI, VIA and other government agencies who also need to be executed for treason.

  12. Why? It’s a mild variant with no deaths. So why more restrictions when people ate pouring in from the border. Are each one of them tested? Makes no sense.
