This is a parody of the brokeback President Biden Administration.
I think they're only getting on it now because it's close to election time even though they probably could have done something as early as February.
This is my favorite paragraph of the parody:
At publishing time, Biden celebrated that U.S. families now rid of burdensome babies could afford to contribute more in taxes to repay trillions for “Build Back Better” infrastructure spending. When asked about helping babies directly, he said “Best I can do is federal funding for abortion.”
Many Democrats want to censor parodies like Babylon Bee because it's considered 'misinformation' but it's actually sarcasm showing how bad the system is with humor.

The babylonbee is right up there with duffleblog for good satire.
The FDA shut down the Abbott Lab facility that makes 50% of the baby formula for the USA.
There were some illnesses, and the FDA shutdown should have raised awareness and at least monitoring by the government out of concern for supply.
SFC Thomas Foreman So when the US government is the cause of the shortage, due to the shutdown, the US government owns the shortage until production is ramped back up.

LTC John Shaw I think we might be heading in the wrong direction here due to lack of context.
My original comment was *also* satire

SFC Thomas Foreman that is sad that children died. They shouldn't put red tape. They should accept formula from the European Union or Canada or Mexico because you know it would have been compatible and the kids wouldn't have gotten sick.
One thing I want to point out is that Bernie Sanders was correct to say that coming up to Canada if you could save 90% on the price of insulin. The quality control is the same so the US government can't lie and say that Canada's insulin is not compatible with Americans.

Bernie Sanders Heads to Canada for Affordable Insulin (Published 2019)
The senator took people with diabetes on a bus trip across the border to dramatize high prices in the U.S. that he attributes to corporate greed.

SFC Thomas Foreman - My bad, I didn't get your satire level. ~
We do have a significant problem with affordable medicine. Many people depend on life saving medication and most countries have no problem negotiating a bulk rate / price control. The US is paying for 40% of all medication $$$, we also have the right to negotiate how much we pay. It is weird that our VA negotiates a reduced price, but Medicare and Medicaid and each state end up competing for the same limited supply.

Sod off, commie
In the court of public opinion, Democrats have nowhere to run on this issue. Notice of Stacy Abrams didn't want President Biden to help her in the primary, President Biden is Kryptonite to Democrats who want to maintain their seats in Congress.
