Anti-vaccine, Pro Trump protesters disrupt Bay Area congressional town hall

Bolstered by OAN, News Max and Fox News, the right can keep their supporters mobilized. After all, if you lived in an America where you truly believed that the election was stolen by immigrants being bussed into vote and where Trump is not getting enough credit for inventing a vaccine to cure a disease that you believe is a hoax, and the Government was now forcing people to take in order to kill them, I guess you can see why Republicans remain so triggered.

This is why progressives, moderates, sane people who believe in science, need to work to make their voices heard over folks who are willing to scream loudly to try to drown out the truth. These are the same people who are behind the efforts to recall Governor Newsome and other Democrats throughout California.

...of reality based folks, which means we need to match them in passion and speak the truth to counter their lies.

he shoved his bulk to the head of the line and got his vaccine in January.

If you run into any of these poor dupes, you might want to tell them that.

wouldn't dare do anything requiring them or they would be busted. You know he went right out and got vaccinated. Probably jumped the line somewhere to do it to.

The woman with the sign about the ferrets looks excruciatingly smug and self-satisfied. Makes me want to reach through my screen and slap her silly! Oh, wait, what am I saying? She's already silly! Okay, substitute "slap some sense into her." Either way, I want to slap her.

Wtf is that about ferrets, dying, btw? I guess I need to brush up on my antifax conspiracy theories.
