  1. If only there were a way for new mothers to feed their babies without baby formula.

    This baby formula crisis is a first world problem. Don’t be surprised if our big business controlled government starts pushing lactation drugs or concocts some other money making scheme.

    One thing is for sure, our politicians are going to use this situation to laugh their way to the bank because Americans are too stupid and spoiled to know what a teat is actually for.

  2. Food shortages now loading……

  3. Yeah, dont want any more of your imperfections in americas babys. Have to remain a fake.

  4. We didn't have this back when I was a baby. My Mother, (and every mother in America) used diluted evaporated milk with a little molasses.

    Consult your pediatrician of course, but unless your baby is a newborn or has special nutritional needs or allergies, you can likely just use that old standby.

  5. Long2 time ago, Afghanistan also shortage of formula milk…. Normal for poor country

    Now it’s happening at your country.

  6. Gives $40 billions aid to Ukraine but takes a very long time to get milk for it's own people's babies, cause priorities.

  7. 90 days late, or more.

  8. We have Slow Joe and the hateful regime to thank for this. Again, and again and again. Always 90 late. What gunna happen when our oil reserve dries up ? Will China make their move then. Joe will be way late for that party too. God Bless America. And please hurry.

  9. What happened to buy American?

  10. Bidens administration was in a hurry to send thousands of cases of baby formula to Ukraine and the southern border with no concern or care for the American moms that needed to feed Thier American born babies.
    Then have to buy more formula from other nations , such a way to lead a nation, 16 months have slowly passed can we survive another 7 months before the Trump backed new GOP gets in office to give Biden/Harris the boot out they deserve.

  11. Biden just secured the Democratic vote by providing the American public with desperately need baby formula. Wow is that the best he can do.

  12. Good 👍 I hope it does get worse ! It should teach these women to use contraception !!!

  13. This is so embarrassing. Crisis happens plan a rescue, crisis happens, plan a rescue…rinse and repeat. So much has happened in the past 3 years….I've been trying not to watch the news much anymore and been taking up hobbies outside to keep some peace in my soul

  14. BIDEN : A little bit short on supply here. This might feed Los Angeles for a day. What's your plan for tomorrow?????

  15. Joe administration= Pathetic!!!!!!!!!!!!

  16. Yep, it is the best time to send 40 billion to ukraine

  17. Thanks to the Biden and the democats the US is a third world country!!!!!!!

  18. It's time to go back to the bases and breastfeed for children that's the only reason we have breasts and if for some reason you cannot breastfeed buy milk off of a mother that can

  19. 民主化を求めるデモは、改革派だった胡耀邦(フー・ヤオパン)元総書記の死がきっかけとなった[2]。胡耀邦の葬儀までに、政治改革を求める学生を中心に約10万人の人々が天安門広場に集まった[3]。

    抗議運動自体は、胡耀邦が死去した1989年4月15日から自然発生的に始まった。抗議の参加者たちは統制がなされておらず、指導者もいなかったが、中には中国共産党の党員、トロツキスト、通常は政府の構造内部の権威主義と経済の変革を要求する声[4] に反対していた改革派の自由主義者も含まれていた。

    デモは最初は天安門広場で、そして広場周辺に集中していたが、のちに上海市を含めた国中の都市に波及していった。鄧小平中軍委主席の決定により5月19日に北京市に戒厳令が布告され、武力介入の可能性が高まったため、趙紫陽総書記や知識人たちは学生たちに対し、デモの平和的解散を促したが、学生たちの投票では強硬派が多数を占め、デモ継続を強行したため首都機能は麻痺に陥った。1989年6月4日未明、中国人民解放軍は兵士と戦車で北京の通りに移動して、デモ隊の鎮圧を開始した。

    衝突のあと、中国共産党当局は広範囲に亘って抗議者とその支持者の逮捕を実行し、外国の報道機関を国から締め出し、自国の報道機関に対しては事件の報道を厳格に統制させた。戒厳令布告に反対した趙紫陽は、総書記ほか全役職を解任され、2005年に死去するまで、自宅軟禁下に置かれた。

    1989年夏以降、一般に「天安門事件」という場合はこの事件を指す。他の天安門事件、特に1976年4月5日に周恩来総理が死去したときに発生した四五天安門事件(第一次天安門事件)と区別するため「第二次天安門事件」と呼ばれることもある[5]。

    略した通称は六四、また中華人民共和国内の検索エンジンにて、「六四天安門事件」というキーワードを検索すると接続不可能になることから、「5月35日(5月31日+4日)」、「VIIV(ローマ数字の6と4を並べたもの)」や、「82(8の2乗を表す数学記法で、その値が64=6月4日)」などを[6][7]、隠語として使うことがある。「1989年」は「民国78年」、「平成元年」と変換することもある。

    抗議者に対する中国共産党による武力弾圧に対しては、国内はもちろんのこと国際社会から痛烈な批判を浴びた[4]。犠牲者の数は1万人を超える(英国政府の公文書)と言われている。
    「百花斉放・百家争鳴」
    1985年3月にソビエト連邦共産党書記長に就任したミハイル・ゴルバチョフが、ソビエト共産党による一党独裁制が続く中で、言論の自由への弾圧や思想・良心の自由が阻害されたことや、官僚による腐敗が徐々に進み、硬直化した国家運営を立て直すために「ペレストロイカ」を表明して、同国の民主化を進めるなか、同じく1949年の建国以来、中国共産党の一党独裁下にあった中華人民共和国でも、1986年5月に中国共産党中央委員会総書記の胡耀邦が「百花斉放・百家争鳴」を再提唱して言論の自由化を推進、胡は国民から「開明の指導者」と謳われ、政治改革への期待や支持が高まった。
     
     
    中国は革命的親米国、中国はニクソンショックで、資本主義に付き、インドシナ侵略侵略しようとして、逃げ帰った、カンボジア大虐殺、米国は台湾独立承認しない、中国は親米国だから

  20. It will take a capitalist president to run a capitalist government effectively. Joe is not qualified nor currently in my opinion competetent. He has had a stroke. For the sake of our country, Let Joe Go!!!…and retire in peace.

  21. Guys try to go to your local Hispanic markets I gave my daughters nestle baby formula from Mexico

  22. If feels like the end of the world is nearer than ever. Sad

  23. this happens when old women decide to have kids in their late 30s and early 40s and can't produce natural breast milk

  24. Next time America don't vote into office a f**** 78-year-old who has Alzheimer's disease. This is your fault because of your stupidity

  25. There are over 11 million babies under age of 2. This 1.5 million bottles won't help much (better than nothing). Why wasn't the formula stockpiled since February when Abbott closed? It's so obvious!

  26. Vulture Capitalism fails the people once again. When Republicans deregulate companies and let corporations form monopolies you end up with formula shortages.
    There are no baby formula shortages in Europe or South America. Because those governments have laws that keep corporations in check.

  27. What you need to buy baby formula for when you have a breast! Have you forgotten that God gave you what you need to feed your baby?
