  1. Carl Sagan once stated, …”this is the dumbing down of America…a kind of celebration of ignorance”

    1. Thanks to Brian Williams and _11th Hour_ staff unearthing this decades-long forgotten quote.

    2. @LG Roots Hello maga nut. NSNBC is factual and shows both sides of the issue. Fox Entertainment only has on people who agree with their commentary. Then you have tucker who says ‘why don’t they tell us?’, ‘when are they going to let us know?’, ‘what do we have to do to make it happen?’, ‘when will it end?’, ad nauseam. If he were an actual journalist he’d answer those questions for you instead he adds opinions and his minions take it as fact.
      Example: He told a story (yep, not true) about Hunter’s laptop proof being shipped by an unknown carrier and the package being handled by unknown people and workers then being lost. Really? Fake News. If trump had the laptop proof it would have been copied in triplicate, emailed and the original brought by the secret service and he would have won the election. But, guess what? People were telling me this was true. Idiots.

  2. the ironic part…
    those putting out fake information…
    are killing their own kind…
    could there be a more obvious indication of imbecility…

    1. I think that’s why you’re starting to hear more Republicans come out and tell them to get vaccinated. They’re losing their base.

    2. I have a solution. Come clean about GOF research. Tell people that this current variant only has a .05 percent mortality rate but because it’s an artificial virus, there’s a chance it could mutate into something with a 10 or 20 percent mortality rate. Charge Fauci for his involvement in Wuhan. Then the antivaxxers might be convinced of the administration’s sincerity in trying to stop the virus before it turns into the superflu. Or just keep saying Trumpers are stupid and deserve to die from covid. Cuz attacking them so ruthlessly has created a huge amount of antivaxxers.

    3. @Taterkaze Thank god for people like who accuse others of being russians. What would the world do without your kind. Keep up the good fight! And make sure to attack the age of people’s accounts too. Keep spreading the love!

  3. Daily Reminder: On January 6, 2021, Impeached former President Trump attacked America during a joint session of congress certifying the 2020 Election

    1. @kulik03 no it wasn’t, there was no coordination with the roll out with trump. That happened under Biden. Trump did nothing beneficial, he never promoted the vaccine. Never urged his cult to take it and here we are with the Delta varriant.

    2. @kathy weis Trump removed regulations which is why the vaccine was available in such record time, even the Democrats thought it was impossible before Trump did it. Give Trump credit where it’s due.

    3. @kulik03 ok, fine I will throw him his bone…so pathetic that you need to beg for him. However that little scrap you just begged for does not make right the 650, 000 lives lost under trumps watch.

    1. @Aaron Helvig I’m pretty sure he meant “compassion.” Probably got messed up by “auto-spell.”

  4. This is So SAD that WE as a Country are dealing with This Foolery.😌 People can be So selfish…just like a trumpliCon.

    1. Just like you. Only watching one side of a divided America’s perspective. You’re part of the problem.

    2. @Sarah F. 4.2

      What are you talking about? Watching both sides of the news from left and right will give me horrible breathing problems?? Lol

  5. How about anyone suicidal just head to Florida? The Governor will help you with your quest. He’ll fight for your death. What a guy.

    1. “”As of Thursday, 882 people were tied to the Provincetown outbreak. Among those living in Massachusetts, 74% of them were fully immunized, yet officials said the vast majority were also reporting symptoms. Seven people were reported hospitalized.'”

    2. ​@Redjam Redjam Where has it been proven false? Provide your source.

      “ABC News
      CDC mask decision followed stunning findings from Cape Cod beach outbreak
      ANNE FLAHERTY and ARIELLE MITROPOULOS
      Thu, July 29, 2021, 4:49 PM”

    1. @ceciliaFX It is also less deadly than the original which had a 0.04% death rate and every time it mutates it gets less deadly like all viruses.

    2. @Dickie Moe75 Told me what? What is fake to you? What news source do you trust because I will get the info from any one and paste it to make you feel better. I don’t trust any of them.

    3. @Real100Talk – we actually don’t know if delta is less deadly. And even if it’s JUST as deadly, THAT is bad enough. The point is it’s MORE infectious, therefore easier to get infected. For people who are at risk this isn’t good.

    4. @cecilia FXX We actually do know that it is less deadly from the numbers out of Britain. Do research. Don’t do your research on American media outlets.

  6. DeSantas and the rest of these republican governors always talk about their rights as they try to strip people’s right to vote or women’s right to control there rights to their own body

  7. In 2021, reversing a decades long trend, life expectancy in the US dropped by nearly two years. It turns out that ignorance and stupidity do have a cost.

    1. Sounds like DeSantis didn’t get that message. He is preaching lies, just like his master Trump. DeSantis is smart enough to know the truth and he is politicizing it instead. Cruelty to those who believe him and suffer as a result.

  8. The up-side of all this “my body my choice” “We want control” (over what they want to put over their mouths) is that it sure makes it easier to be called out for their blatant hypocrisy when it comes to a woman’s body her choice and control over a much bigger body part than a friggin’ mouth!

    1. @Jim River True, no vaccine as we don’t know what is in it, but not having an issue with injecting botox in their faces.

  9. Masks need to be mandated everywhere until 95% of the population has been vaccinated. It’s not possible to know who has and who hasn’t been vaccinated. So we need to assume everyone isn’t.

    1. I have been vaccinated since April and was required to return to the office recently. Masks are mandatory for those who are unvaccinated and I see that nearly nobody is wearing them. Just based on the general population of my city and state, I feel I can safely assume that at least 50% of those in my company are unvaccinated and massless. I will continue to wear mine for the foreseeable future, which I don’t have a problem with.

  10. We have to mask up again because too many unvaccinated people weren’t honest about it and didn’t wear masks.

    1. Lies, it is spreading easier among the vaccinated and less among the unvaccinated with natural immune systems.

      “”As of Thursday, 882 people were tied to the Provincetown outbreak. Among those living in Massachusetts, 74% of them were fully immunized, yet officials said the vast majority were also reporting symptoms. Seven people were reported hospitalized.'”

  11. Desantis and the rest of the Republicans pushing this dangerous rhetoric are putting so many lives at risk and watch the toll it takes…it’s completely moronic. VOTE THEM OUT!

    1. Gov. DeSatan is doing the Devil’s work with his homicidal criminal negligence. Will enough Florida voters finally figure out that DeSatan only cares about his political prospects, and nothing about his constituents lives, health, and well-being?

    2. Vote who will be voting for DeDummy if this pandemic tanks on his state. Smh. Praying for Florida.
