Lynnette Hardaway, one-half of Diamond and Silk, was hospitalized with COVID during the Thanksgiving holiday.

Hardaway, better known as Diamond, is a republican widely known for being one of Donald Trump’s “most loyal supporters” during his campaign and presidency. On Saturday, her sister Rochelle Richardson, aka Silk, logged into Twitter to request prayers for her sister who is fighting the good fight against COVID.

“Anyone who believes in the power of prayer please pray for Diamond,” Richardson wrote on her sister’s Twitter page to update fans.

I have a cousin whose husband was about as wingnut as it gets - lost to Covid. My B.I.L, who is also to the right of Trump but slightly to the left of Mussolini (and who I actually like a great deal, politics aside) almost died of Covid in 2020. I look like the nonvaxxers like those who won't quit smoking - all you can do is hope they'll figure it out.

She actively harmed others by spreading lies and misinformation.

I wish she had recovered, and recanted her nefarious ways.

"Beginning in March 2020, Hardaway and Richardson questioned various information about COVID-19 including whether or not the number of deaths from the pandemic was being inflated in order to make Donald Trump look incompetent. These questions led to the termination of their work with FOX in April."

Any sympathy I might have had, and it wouldn't be much, is more than outdone by the thought of the tens of thousands who died because they believed the bullshit she, her grifting sister, and all the other anti-vax morons spread. That's who I am sorry for.

She gets nothing but

A person so awful that the world has become a much better place with the traitor gone.

And that she did it to herself is the cherry on top of the Schadenfreude Sundae.

from April of '20:

Diamond and Silk have claimed that coronavirus deaths have been inflated; wondered if the virus is “being deliberately spread”; stated that Microsoft founder Bill Gates wants to “rule the world with vaccines” and they won’t take one if he’s involved; argued against social distancing by claiming that “only way we can become immune to the environment” is to “be out in the environment”; asked whether “somebody” could use 5G cellular technology to infect people to ensure that “hospital beds can be filled"; and questioned if the World Health Organization has “a switch to turn this virus on and off.”

Blood clots, heart issues and went into A FIB. I had a heart attack in the ER and spent eight days in the hospital. Diamond likely died of Covid complications.
