Trump supporters and conspiracy theory - Part 2

Even Faux Propaganda had to put up a disclaimer on their banner that Criminal Donald is a pathological liar.

Thanks to right wing Republicans and the right wing media pushing lies about COVID-19 and vaccines, Missouri has another COVID crisis. This time with the more infectious and deadly Delta variant. There is no excuse not to get vaccinated as President Biden had made it more than accessible to have vaccines at every major pharmacy and several public vaccination sites in nearly every county. This is their own fault and they will continue to infect each other and their families. Some of them will even die because of it. The GOP "Pro Death Party" at work with no regard for human life.         


'Like we’re on an island’: How Missouri’s inaction allowed delta variant to spread

On June 2 Jessica Pearson, an epidemiologist with the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services, sent a concerned but business-as-usual email to local health officials in the northwest corner of the state.

Pearson took note of the highly contagious COVID-19 delta variant, which had surged in some northern Missouri counties.

“Just a reminder that there is nothing additional that needs to be done as far as public health action for variant cases,” Pearson wrote, recapping a conference call earlier that day, “but we emphasize the importance of a timely investigation and implementation of control measures.”

One month later, as the United States as a whole experiences the fewest cases and hospitalizations in months, Missouri is in crisis.

Delta is rampaging through the unvaccinated, spurring rising cases and threatening to overwhelm Springfield hospitals. Missouri now has the second-highest rate of new cases per capita, according to data compiled by The New York Times, and among the lowest adult vaccination rates among all states.

What went wrong?

A joint investigation by The Kansas City Star and Columbia University’s Brown Institute for Media Innovation reveals how June became a lost month in the fight to slow the spread of delta across Missouri. Thousands of pages of internal emails and other documents from 19 local health departments trace the growing alarm and a sense of near-resignation among officials about their chances of halting the advance of the variant.

The consequences of the squandered month will last well into summer. CoxHealth, a major Springfield hospital, told The Star it’s bracing for hospitalizations to rise for weeks to come. Delta is still spreading and has now been found in the Kansas City and St. Louis areas, though state officials hope higher vaccination rates in those places will limit increases in cases. Schools will also begin next month with some parents in open rebellion against imposing mask requirements, even with delta all but certain to continue circulating.

The emails, obtained through records requests by the institute’s Documenting COVID-19 project and shared with The Star, paint a portrait of local health officials eager to vaccinate their communities but encountering resistance from residents, apathy from some politicians and a milquetoast state-level response. They document rising frustration with everyone from DHSS to elected officials to the public. An official in one county even privately mocked a video released by DHSS explaining the delta variant.

“I feel like we’re on an island, all alone in the COVID fight, but I know others in the state are feeling the same way,” Laclede County Health Department Administrator Charla Baker wrote to a DHSS official in late June. “With our community leaders and residents not wanting to take any remedial actions to protect themselves and others, we are just very frustrated and concerned with our current situation.”

If only Biden and Harris had not expressed skepticism as to the safety of the vaccines developed under Trump, then perhaps more people would have gotten it.  But they chose politics over public safety as they did throughout the pandemic to use it for political purposes during the campaign.  While Trump was advocating a vaccine and securing hundreds of millions of doses, the Dems were closing down the country and advocating masks which had little or no demonstrable effect.  In fact, by overstating the safety of mask wearing, the Dems likely contributed to the spread of the pandemic by making people believe it was safe to go out with a mask.  Putting them at risk. 

With everything in the country falling apart at an astounding rate under Whispering Joe, the Dems desperately want the pandemic to return to use it again to clampdown on Americans for political purposes.  They have nothing else to offer except endless rants about Trump.

Old Joe's accomplishments in just over 100 days (although it seems much longer given the decline):

Inflation - check. 
Illegals flooding over the border - check. 
Gas prices rising to record levels - check. 
Labor shortage because they are paying folks to stay home - big check on that one. 
Rampant crime in the dem controlled cities - check. 
Russian hacks going unpunished - check (do they have something on Biden? - LOL).

All these stupid ignorant right wingers were foaming at the mouth to open churches and schools during the middle of a pandemic. The reason they were closed was to prevent a mass COVID outbreak like this. Now that the Delta variant is running rampant in right wing communities, these same morons refuse to get vaccinated and hold a mass gathering where hundreds and even thousands of people at one event will get sick and end up dying. Not to mention these people will infect many many more people which in return will allow the Delta variant to mutate into an even more deadly variant. Once again, this is the work of the GOP "Death Party" that has no regard for human life.           

COVID outbreak linked to Ohio church retreat with more than 800 attendees: report



"The church retreat at Camp Chautauqua, Ohio, was attended by more than 800 people and churches from 'Ohio, Kentucky, Illinois and Indiana,' per the county health department statement," reported Axios's Ivana Saric. "At least 30 COVID-19 cases have been identified among attendees in Ohio and Kentucky. Of note: The camp and event organizers didn't respond to public health officials for several days after the initial cases were identified and haven't provided contact information for the other attendees, the statement added."

This news comes just as another COVID-19 outbreak was linked to the Southern Baptist Convention gathering in Tennessee.

Churches, being large, routine gathering places afforded special treatment under the law, have been a frequent vector of spread for COVID-19. Complicating matters, some pastors have urged their congregants not to be vaccinated, and a number of religious leaders are reportedly scared of being rejected if they come out with a pro-science stance on vaccines.

No, I've understood from the get-go that masks are not going to protect me from the virus: They are meant to minimize breathing on someone if you already have the virus. You might be symptomless so everyone has to wear one. That's why social distancing is also important. It's not hard to figure this out.

Richard Smith the propagandist, is spinning more of the same  b.s. bogus propaganda and disinformation trying to cover for his orange criminal hero. It's really really pathetic. These right wing Trump worshippers attempt to rewrite history but always fail miserably when actual evidence debunks their lies.

The fact is President Biden was not President in 2020....Criminal Donald was and did nothing to protect America from COVID 19 but pathetically Richard was to blame Biden instead. That's what right wingers always do, blame others for Criminal Donald's failures.   

Criminal Donald called COVID-19 a hoax and lied about every aspect of COVID 19. He waited until we had a major health disaster until he even declared a state of emergency when he knew about COVID-19 in November 2019.

Criminal Donald was pushing fake remedies like Hydroxychloroquine and injecting bleach and sunlight like the moron he is.

Criminal Donald had nothing to do with the development of the vaccine. He took fake credit for it like everything else he does because he is a total fraud. Pfizer was funded and developed by Germany.

This is an outright lie. Masks and stay at home orders saved millions of lives. Medical studies have proved that to be the case and are medically documented facts.

The vaccine roll out under Criminal Donald was a disaster and he refused to secure enough vaccine for ALL Americans. It wasn't until President Biden came into office that we secured millions of doses of vaccines and got millions of people vaccinated.   

President Biden has created the most jobs in record time in modern history and the reat of Richard's bogus checklist is pure propaganda disinformation he parrots from the right wing media.

The highest percentages of the unvaccinated are young people and minorities.  The vast of majority of whom are democrats. So another lie to add to the growing list.  Trump was among the first proponents of a vaccine.  Biden and Harris expressed skepticism about the safety of the vaccine.  So we are going down the revisionist rabbit hole once again.  Like the claim that Republicans wanted to defund the police or that it is impermissible to challenge the validity of an election (something the dems did for four years with a baseless and wild conspiracy theory about Russian collusion).  The hypocrisy and lies are astounding.

Once again, more disinformation.

Red states and red communities are the least vaccinated of any states and communities in America. This is a documented fact but Richard wants to gaslight you as usual.
