democrats want credit. >> the omicron variant is in retreat and that's not by accident. that's because under president biden's leadership, a public health infrastructure was put into place beginning with the american rescue plan without a single republican vote to ensure that we can do everything possible to crush the virus. and that has been happening. >> there is no reason for mandates at this point. if things change, we can change back. but, right now, we should free as many people from these restrictions. >> jesse: do they think we are stupid? this is like wanting credit for taking your foot off somebody's neck. here is your freedom back, peasant. i only hurt you because i love you. they terrorized us for two years. you couldn't shop for groceries without hiding your face. you couldn't eat out. you couldn't work out -- well, i did. or you couldn't even go out and catch a movie. you couldn't go to work.
