  1. We did it guys. I’m so proud that we pulled this off. I’ll see you guys again when we hit 1/2 a million.

    1. @OTIS SPENCER if we could just sterilize all of the anti-maskers and Corona-truthers from infecting the rest of the population with their conspiracy theories and misinformation that be cool. I mean, y’all don’t have to die, but if we could get you to somehow STFU and stop jeopardizing public health that’d be awesome.

    2. @mrsme1234 There is some speculation that COVID could affect the fertility of males. Sucks for the people who were diligent and caught it any way, but the silver lining is that these Trump supporting conspiracy tards might just knock themselves out of the gene pool.

    3. @stylac Sad story in the news, a man at the Los Angeles Zoo fell into the Tiger exhibit and was mauled by the 2 tigers being housed in the facility. Unfortunately, despite the best efforts of the brave doctors and nurses the subject passed away an hour later from complications due to Coronavirus.

    1. Actually flu deaths are UP worldwide… which proves that all of these lockdowns and prevention methods for covid definitely have done nothing to stop Flu deaths… and they already have a vaccine for that!!!

    2. @WarplaneMaster X it’s not. It’s a little less than last year at about 38k deaths. It’s just not a news headline cuz you don’t have kids shooting up schools this year, since they’re all locked down. Over 50 school shootings in 2019 compared to less than 10 this year

    3. This is factually inaccurate. Reported normal deaths have been going about as usual, with a small decline from people quarantine themselves and avoiding others

    4. @Elvish Elvish its almost as if staying home because of a pandemic, means that there are less people outside, specially in large metro cities like chicago and NYC?!?? whaaaaat lmao ( btw i am agreeing with you)

    1. @Say no to communism Our country comes first who cares about commies? Also the majority of the dead are prolly republicans, go put on a mask lmao

    2. And for some “other” important trackings that just happened to be overlooked by blame stream media..

      Annually 1 million babies are born into probable poverty.. 4 million in total… 1 million to single mothers..Now I am not suggesting that a woman should or shouldn’t have children..Only that it’s done in a responsible manner.. Ohhh and BTW it’s 4 times the death rate of the “covid 19” so its not like single women aren’t falling behind by any means…

      And horror of horrors 16 times as many people are involved in vehicular accident requiring medical attention..Let me repeat… SIXTEEN TIMES..Where is the shock.. the panic… the social addressing to a horrible situation that could easily be avoided… If only right???

      Listen up readers… this is all propaganda.. If politicians really cared they would address the bigger problems..

      Covid 19 in most cases is a recoverable virus… well over 3/4 of those that get it and die ALREADY had pre-existing conditions … thats why it only has a 3% death rate

    3. ed  hmmmm let’s take a look at the border. Oh! Kids separated from their parents! Wow the children are in miserable cages that are too small even for a prison cell! Now let’s look at America as of right now- oh wait, I’m being told something… hundreds of thousands of deaths from something that Trump could’ve probably prevented by being cautious and responsible? Man Trump touches my heart just like he touched his daughter

    4. @Skunknoodles Obama was the one that built the cages, but don’t let pesky truth get in the way of your narrative. You were saying?

    1. NEVER DISRESPECT AMERICA’S FLAG! NEVER! AMERICA’S DEFENSE FORCES FIGHT FOR ALL AMERICAN’S TIRELESSLY AND ENDLESSLY. FREEDOM ISN’T FREE.
      REGARDLESS OF THE VIRUS OR NOT.

    1. @L P Take it easy on the commies.. they probably don’t know where all of this evidence is.. let it keep coming out and just watch their heads explode when everything MSM has been hiding exposes these traitors🇺🇲

    2. @L P I do support the idea of all votes being counted it but I don’t support your parties way of implementing it. What you are suggesting only allows those who you want to vote vote. Like in 1789 when only white men were allowed to vote. Looking back at history the only voter suppression that has ever happen has been against people of color. It’s been well documented.

      What you are suggesting is great but it will only lead of voter suppression which your party is doing a great job at. Let’s not forget the KKK which was orgianlyl created by the democratic party which then changed and is now called the republican party did and still does a great job at that.

      This year president trump had put in Dejoy in the USPS post master position in order to slow down mail in votes. Why did he do this you ask? So he could limit the voters from home (who have always been largely democratic) have there voted canceled by delays in mail. This year he knew would be even more so with the pandemic the old, sick and scared would not have voted at all if your “idea” was put in place.

      You are so out of touch of reality that your proposal would limit majority of Americans from voting. In Texas it was limited to one county and in person polls where voters were being threaten away from voting. (voter suppression). No one suppressed your voters it was very evident that didn’t happen that’s why the first votes were mostly red. In states when they were counted in the first hours. Small amounts of republican mail voters were counted as well if you watch the number counts you would know that. So it wasn’t all democratic votes coming from the mail. The only known voter suppression was of democratic voters who voted by mail. In Florida alone almost 23% of votes where not counted because of USPS slow downs.

      Your claims of mass voter fround have no evidence what so ever. The head of the national cyber security had found not evidence of the claim. It’s false and then was fired by trump for doing his job and trump not agreeing with the evidence.

      Do you know who does that a Facist.

      When he does not like someone’s ideas or someone disagrees with him what does he do? He fires them or discredits them until the resign. That is what a dictator does. Ie fascism (the idea of far right authoristm) and a dictator ship.

      Nazi Germanys slogan in world War 2 was “divide and conquer”. What has trump done in the first year of election. Alienated the latino/Latina American calling them all “rapist, murderers, and drug dealers.”
      He created a travel ban on Muslims and alienated middle easterns. Called covid an “Chinese virus” which then aliantes anyone of Asian decent. He’s called blacks thugs, and gang bangers. Then calls white supremist “Good people” and gives the proud boys orders to “stand back and stand by”. A white supremist group “Good people”

      He’s calling the election a fraud with not a single peice of evidence. He’s throwing a temper tantrum because he lost an election and threatening national security because of it.

       @L P  I don’t support a party. I support the president who is for the people of the United States.
      Which president trump is not.

      Who you are voting for is the exact opposite of what the constitution stands for. You are going against the very thing you are trying to protect.

      Isn’t it every Americas right to vote? Not in trumps eyes he tired to take that away with putting Dejoy in the post master position to take away vote by mail which has been in place since the Civil War.

      I would gladly listen to anyone who has evidence of voter fraud. If there was I agree it should be handled accordingly re counts have happened but noting but false claims. No evidence of poll watchers being denied. Republicans had a “non zero amount” of watchers.

    3. @L P If you support trump you are against the United States and its constitution. He wants complete and unchallenged power. I hope you can see that one day. That you were voting for a dictator who wants absolute power.

    4. @mrsme1234 It’s November 19th 2020, 324 days from the start of the year and athletes, *major* celebrities, national politicians, governors and billionaires still have an amazing 100% survival rate from coronavirus. The “deadliest pandemic”  in a century…….and mysteriously it avoids killing anyone in control. 🤔

  2. Just had Thanksgiving with 24 other veterans tonight the vietnam war didn’t get us maybe COVIT19 will update in 2 weeks

    1. @John Madden Right, that’s why even the media that despises Trump so much even defended him for severing ties with Epstein, long before Bill, Hillary and Chelsea stayed at his Ranch.

    2. @Sergeant Gutsy : Did not realize Hunter was on the ballot!! …. Oh the shenanigans of the desperate Trumpers 🤣

  3. I’m done, I’m not playing covid party anymore. It was a fun little game we played but it’s time to go back to work.

  4. This gotten to the point where it’s like tracking Santa on Christmas Eve. It’s just fir the children’s , adults don’t take this seriously. Smh.

    1. Amen!!! I am praying this as well!!! Although this IS the END TIMES!!! This could be the INTRODUCTION to the AntiChrist in this life!!!

    1. @Joe Kent Then you aren’t talking about the video lol. They were discussing the number of deaths, not cases reported.

    2. My grandma was 76. Died of a heart attack. The autopsy showed she had Covid so they put covid as cause of death smh. The numbers are exaggerated for sure

    3. @AmongUs179 Nobody has COVID, it doesn’t exist.

      Now, I do not for a second disagree that people die from the common cold, as they have for over a million years, but there is no such thing as novel viruses – merely flavors of influenza and the common cold. That’s it

    1. I am sure you do nothing about THAT problem as much as you do nothing about THIS problem.

      You can’t say what we should be doing if you know you will be doing nothing then as well. “We should not help refugees when we have sick veterans we need to neglect”

    1. Civil war is already happening and it when it does become official we need to let them know that they’re on our priority list

    2. There is propaganda, and a large group of Americans has been Brainwashed, look in the mirror and the person starring back at you is most likely a culprit.
