i want to start with your dr.. i want to go get a covid test went to the local pharmacy big national chain it wasn t free. despite my having blue cross blue shield insurance. i ve got to tell you. the testing is terrible in the fda has a new morning out. that s right and first of al i can tell you the moment that president biden said they are a home test were going to be free and bigger insurance i think every single better provider like my said that a little chuckle. that s not going to happen. the paperwork associated with i is astronomical. it s not surprising it s being rolled back. interestingly enough as you mentioned rapid tests are hard to come by the very expensive and also the fda announced toda that three commercial testing that units it not necessarily the at-home testing but three commercial tests for cuba 19 is it not detecting the omicron bearing it. this is on the administration t make sure that testing at home
testing rapid testing and pcr i not widely available accessible affordable but also accurate. i do have to go back to what yo said. i don t care who is president now or then, covid is going to covid. president biden his entire administration is about messaging and making sure the politicization is not there. they ve also obviously fumbled that. president trump has a focus wasn t making sure that science was underway making sure there was parallel manufacturing in the event our great scientist could actually come up with vaccines and treatments which they did. it s quite miraculous what happened. president vita may have had it much easier but at the end of the date no president is going to stop this virus from circulating is highly transmissible and americans are going to do what they want to do . think you for your expertise. the testing is absolutely disaster. we have to take a quick break but will come back with lee zel
that s it government at its best . what we see his government at its worst. and let the shame is it, testing is not new phenomenon for the president weeks ago it a promise it would be free and available. where have they been for the last year if not helping perfected testing and making sure it s readily available. one of the most important thing people need to know is they are infected. thanks to doctor nicholas safir who was with us before the commercial. at you for joining us tonight w appreciate it. switching gears, the defense rested its case and the manslaughter trial of former brooklyn senator minnesota police officer kim potter today. potter failed alicia shot dante right back in april. he was resisting arrest and potter says he meant it to grab her teaser but pulled a gun by mistake today. she took the stand and broke down in tears describing the shooting. here to break it all down greg jarrett.
