What?! Rona is Evolving!

from The Freak Show · host Cyrex & Super Elsy

Hope you got enough badges… COVID ain’t done. The Delta variant is now considered a “variant of concern” by the CDC. This variant is anticipated to become the dominant strain in America. But Ron DeSantis thinks it’s nothing but a bunch of propaganda. He wants you to focus on him & what he wants to pass, like banning the teaching of America’s systemic racism. Congresswoman Ilhan Omar came under criticism for a tweet that was mischaracterized as comparing America & Israel to Hamas & the Taliban. She’s hearing it from both sides, with 12 House Democrats making a public statement rebuking her tweet rather than picking up a phone. So much for party unity. Meidas Touch produced an ad condemning the Republican Party & Trump supporters for the January 6th Insurrection, with accounts from Capitol Police officers. Despite paying 6 digits to have it air over 9 days on Fox News, the right-wing network refused to air it. & Senate GOP filibustered the Paycheck Fairness Act, with not a single Republican woman senator voting in favor of this bill. Other topics include comparing Congress election results, backlash at Kirsten Gillibrand & the sexism surrounding it, Tucker Carlson’s Gilead fantasy, & Congresswoman Jackie Walorski feeling extended unemployment benefits were unfair to CEOs.
