You all — you all listened to the President, right? So, he had an opportunity this morning, so he was going to take that opportunity to say how we need to continue to move forward with the border — border — border security negotiation — or the plan that came out of the negotiation. We heard from the former President, who said, “Don’t move forward.” He told Republicans to reject it.

Since the start of 2024, we estimate that Ukraine has destroyed more than 700 Russian armored vehicles and roughly 250 Russian tanks. The early in vitro and clinical studies that I mentioned indicate that boosters reconstitute the antibody titers and enhance the vaccine protection against Omicron. However, when you get the booster, which is in the red circles, for Omicron, it increases to 75 percent effectiveness against symptomatic disease with a booster dose. WASHINGTON — White House national security spokesman John Kirby insisted the the U.S. abstaining from a U.N. Resolution on Gaza cease-fire, allowing the resolution to pass, was not a change in American policy. Biden approved immediately sending Ukraine $1 billion in military assistance and said the shipment would begin arriving in the “next few hours” — the first tranche from about $61 billion allocated for Ukraine.

But this really is something that we take care to separate from politics, to separate from, you know, decisions taken at the White House. It is a State Department analysis with a State Department outcome. And they can speak to what is going to happen at the time that they’re ready to speak to it. And we will start to see the impact of that month by month as they implement the new mobilization law and as they implement the new directives from the Minister of Defense and the — the new commander of the — of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. And the President referred in his remarks earlier today to the reports of Ukrainian troops literally cheering in the trenches, watching on their phones, as the House passed the bill over the weekend.

And, you know, we are insisting that that happen, in addition to ensuring the safety and protection of the people of Rafah. Until recently, as we’ve said on many occasions, we were unable to provide these ATACMS because of readiness concerns. But behind the scenes, the administration across the board has worked relentlessly to address those concerns.

So, look, I would say, more broadly — and I said this moments ago — this is a deeply painful, painful moment for many communities, and we understand that. But the President believes that free speech, debate, and nondiscrimination on college campuses are important. And that — and so, he’ll always be very clear — we will always be very clear about here — about that here. The Lad- — Labor Department is also protecting retirement security by requiring financial advisors to act in the saver’s best interest, not their own. This will save millions of Americans thousands of dollars for their retirement accounts.

And as we have done throughout our vaccination program, we have equity at the center of our work, ensuring boosters are available in the hardest-hit communities and by deploying mobile clinics to bring boosters to meet people where they are. As we approach the Thanksgiving holiday, I want to take a moment to reflect on where we were a year ago. I can remember waiting in great anticipation for the lifesaving vaccines we currently have at our fingertips. Last year, many families did not gather and celebrations went without parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins.

We have plenty of supply, and more and more kids are getting vaccinated in that age group — 5 to 11 — each and every day. Obviously, the decisions how to manage the virus are done at the local level, informed by community transmission, vaccination rate, and local capacity. So, we need to use the tools we have and get more people vaccinated to keep people safe without going backwards in any way, shape, or form. We can curb the spread of the virus without having to in any way shut down our economy. So that — you know, we have 82 percent of people now with one shot, and more and more people getting vaccinated each week.
Remarks by Vice President Harris at the White House Take Your Child to Work Day Event
I am wondering about vaccines for the 5- to 11-year-olds and whether you have any sense of trends yet at this point how it compares to other vaccine rollouts or the older adolescent vaccines. But just as you note, one extra layer of protection that you might take is to take a rapid test before you gather together. For example, we have 98 percent compliance at the IRS, with nearly 25 percent of IRS employees getting vaccinated after the President announced the requirement. But still, overall, when looking at hospitalization rates, unvaccinated adults had nine times higher rate of hospitalizations than vaccinated adults.
But you can also measure it just in terms of the — the wear and tear in places on a frontline unit who has to ration ammunition because they’re not getting the steady flows. And with that, I’d be happy to take your questions. The bill will also help replenish Israel’s air defenses, which is even more important following Iran’s brazen and unprecedented attack 10 days ago. And it will help ensure that Israel has what it needs to defend itself against the very real threats it faces from Iran as well as Iran’s proxy groups.
White House press secretary Sarah Sanders says she "can't predict the future" when it comes to the fate of Trump's national security adviser H.R. McMaster — but said she's "not aware" that he'll leave the administration any time soon. As I said, 95 percent of federal workers are in compliance and 90 percent are already vaccinated. And even once the deadline passes, as we’ve talked about, it’s not a cliff. We’ll continue to work with people, answer their questions, provide counseling and education, and get more and more people vaccinated. In making these recommendations, we took into consideration the current state of the pandemic, the data on vaccine effectiveness over time, and importantly the safety profile of booster shots of over 30 million Americans who have already received an additional vaccine dose.
And the quantities and the type of humanitarian assistance that we have seen increase over the last two weeks, we need to see continued increases and sustained increases as we go forward. The administration and a bipartisan group of lawmakers have called the social media site a growing national security concern. Tucked into the measure is a provision that gives TikTok’s Beijing-based parent company, ByteDance, nine months to sell it or face a nationwide prohibition in the United States. The president can grant a one-time extension of 90 days, bringing the timeline to sell to one year, if he certifies that there’s a path to divestiture and “significant progress” toward executing it. But significant damage has been done to the Biden administration’s effort to help Ukraine repel Russia’s invasion during the funding impasse that dates back to August, when the Democratic president made his first emergency spending request for Ukraine aid.
That means everyone over 18 years of age is eligible to get boosted. So, if you’re 18 years and older, I encourage you to go get boosted. The President earlier today said the 2017 tax bill that was passed under President Trump — if he is reelected — if President Biden is reelected, it would be dead and gone forever.
