Nah. Trump's not always right.

But he's right about that one though.

Trump said that, although he already won the 2024 election, “there was fraud and corruption like you wouldn’t believe.”

“The 2024 election was so stolen it makes the 2020 election look not stolen,” he said. “The fact that I won in 2024 even though it was stolen from me is amazing, and, quite frankly, fantastic.”



Yeah. That's exactly right.

Democrats are going to have fucked the country up so bad in 3 more years that nobody would believe that Democrats won in 2024. They couldn't possibly cheat that much.

A reporter asked if he planned to run yet again in 2028. “I already won in 2028,” he said. “That’s a stupid question and you’re a disgrace.”



Now he's just trolling you because you're stupid.

"First, we have to do more to vaccinate 66 million unvaccinated people in America," he said. "It's essential."


Come and give it to me Joe*.

I'd be curious to see how that goes.

Newly Discovered Bat Viruses Give Hints to Covid’s Origins

Three of the Laos coronaviruses were unusual: They carried a molecular hook on their surface that was very similar to the hook on the virus that causes Covid-19, called SARS-CoV-2. Like SARS-CoV-2, their hook allowed them to latch onto human cells.

“It is even better than early strains of SARS-CoV-2,” said Marc Eloit, a virologist at the Pasteur Institute in Paris who led the study, referring to how well the hook on the Laos coronaviruses binds to human cells.

The findings have significant implications for the charged debate over Covid’s origins, experts say. Some people have speculated that SARS-CoV-2’s impressive ability to infect human cells could not have evolved through a natural spillover from an animal. But the new findings seem to suggest otherwise.

“That really puts to bed any notion that this virus had to have been concocted, or somehow manipulated in a lab, to be so good at infecting humans,” said Michael Worobey, a University of Arizona virologist who was not involved in the work.

“When a coronavirus that we have monitored for decades, that we think of as just something our pets can get, can make the jump (to humans) — we should have seen that coming, right?” Dr. Carlson said.

Shut the fuck up, shill.

Even John Stewart knows where the virus was grown.

Are you running defense for China now you little bitch?

SIX, your shrillness and name-calling about Covid only highlights the fact that you have no facts on your side.

Biden has now more than Doubled the Corona Deaths under Trump

Top 5 Deaths
USA
741,898
Brazil
602,201
India
451,847
Mexico
283,574
Russia
221,313

This is where I get the info but there are other sites that also give data
https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/#countries

Per head some Eastern European countries seem to have the worst infection rates - Montenegro, Andorra, Gibraltar, Georgia, San Marino all rank high with cases.

Countries like Peru and Bosnia have some of the worst death compared to percentage with populations.

The USA still continues to have the highest 'Total Cases'

The USA also has the highest cured with 35 Million people Recovered.

The COVID pandemic unleashed attacks on scientists

Dozens of researchers tell Nature they have received death threats, or threats of physical or sexual violence.

Infectious-diseases physician Krutika Kuppalli had been in her new job for barely a week in September 2020, when someone phoned her at home and threatened to kill her.

Kuppalli, who had just moved from California to the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston, had been dealing with online abuse for months after she’d given high-profile media interviews on COVID-19, and had recently testified to a US congressional committee on how to hold safe elections during the pandemic. But the phone call was a scary escalation. “It made me very anxious, nervous and upset,” says Kuppalli, who now works at the World Health Organization (WHO) in Geneva, Switzerland.

She called the police, but didn’t hear that they took any action. The threatening e-mails, calls and online comments continued. The police officer who visited Kuppalli after a second death-threat call suggested she should get herself a gun.

Kuppalli’s experience during the pandemic is not uncommon. A survey by Nature of more than 300 scientists who have given media interviews about COVID-19 — many of whom had also commented about the pandemic on social media — has found wide experience of harassment or abuse; 15% said they had received death threats.
