President Joe Biden stressed science and unity in his first briefing on the COVID-19 pandemic Thursday, giving Americans the "brutal truth" about the challenges the nation faces before signing a series of executive orders aimed at combating the pandemic.

"We're still in a dark winter of this pandemic. It's going to get worse before it gets better. It's going to take many months to get where we need to be," he said, noting deaths likely will top 500,000 next month. "Despite the best intentions, we're going to face setbacks, which I will always explain to you. But I also know we can do this if we come together."

Biden's executive orders Thursday create a new "testing board" to expand testing for the coronavirus, order a national strategy to reopen schools and require masks in most planes, trains and airports.

He also laid out a series of promises on vaccine distribution and access. Biden said he was directing the Federal Emergency Management Agency to start setting up the first federally supported community vaccination centers, with a goal of having 100 centers online within the next month.

2. Defined and stated goals! Close attention! Measurement!

This is an executive, not a children's show clown like that orange racist creature who recently dishonored that office.

This is something we will remember even as we are reminded of the ignorant self absorbed cretin, who we we will be able to forget after his sentencing.
