Fox News: Democrats Are Making Up New Variants to Help Biden

If Fox & Friends is to be taken seriously, then South Africa, the World Health Organization, the Democratic Party, and the Biden administration are all part of a massive conspiracy to keep Democrats in power by routinely introducing new variants of the coronavirus.



“[He] has said we can’t fix the supply chain problem until the pandemic is over, until Covid is over,” said Campos-Duffy. “And now we see these new variants. So that’s the answer: more lockdowns, more lockdowns, more fear and therefore he doesn’t have to do his job of fixing the supply chain because ‘we’ll keep this whole thing going.'”

“Always a new variant,” Cain said, and Hegseth added “you can count on a variant about every October, every two years” — suggesting that Democrats would invent new variants before elections to gain an advantage.

Campos-Duffy laughed at that as Cain told Hegseth “you’re probably right. However, they could speed up. The variants could come more quickly.” That led to Hegseth mimicking a person on the phone saying “we’re gonna need a new variant here.”

no cable, satellite, or internet, and TV stations were all locally owned.

I can say that, because I live in CA, and feel safe that it will become a blue state, should we split up states based upon party preference.

And then institute travel restrictions between states. I'll probably miss being able to travel to the 1 or 2 red states I might ordinarily have visited, but I can live with that.

Then we can have states who think the virus is a hoax, being invented by the Democrats, and other states, like CA, can take it seriously, and keep death totals to a minimum.

While their own supporters and viewers are at the greatest risk.

Meanwhile, 777 million Americans are dead.

These people are ghouls!

...Fox considers "news" personalities. Yes, I know that Fox watchers are morons. But having this woman on as some kind of "star" is just...beyond. By the way, her husband (Sean Duffy) was just on the same show the other day. He and his wife met on "The Real World".

...where MTV put up a bunch of misfits in a giant house in San Francisco. The rent per room in constant dollars must have been ~ $4000, if any kind of free market was involved. But of course this was MTV, so they all just got to live there.

The Duffys have been on the wingnut welfare teat for decades. They're radtrad fundamentalist Catholics, so they also run that grift on EWTN etc. They have the requisite nine kids, one with Down's syndrome, because they won't use birth control and they tried to have kids nearly into their 50s. Rachel Campos-Duffy had some kind of sinecure job funded by the Kochs at one point. They don't seem to have any kind of regular job associated with an actual physical product or service. They're always making TV appearances, etc., all of which must be paid for. There are probably multiple far-right sugar daddies involved.
