And speaking of Keith Olbermann, how about him for President Biden's Press Secretary? He won't lie and bullshit for anyone. He won't lie and bullshit to anyone. And he'll call out lies and bullshit anytime he hears it. Especially when it comes from Focksnooze.

If Gohmert infected Barr (or someone else), who then infects Pence and Trump AND a very statistically unlikely result ensues simultaneously.... That's gonna be on the short list.
