yaesu's JournalLouisiana Congressman-elect Luke Letlow has died while being treated for COVID-19, multiple sources
Letlow, who was elected in November to represent Louisianas fifth congressional district, was being treated at Ochsner LSU Health in Shreveport after announcing on December 18 that he had tested positive for COVID-19. He was supposed to be sworn into Congress on Sunday. He was 41 & has two young kids. He attended several maskless rallies, I do know that, and he paid the price and endangered others. likely contracted covid from his victory party where no one was wearing masks.
The GOP used a Two Santa Clauses tactic to con America for nearly 40 years
In fact, Republican strategist Jude Wanniskis 1974 Two Santa Clauses Theory has been the main reason why the GOP has succeeded in producing our last two Republican presidents, Bush and Trump (despite losing the popular vote both times). Its also why Reagans economy seemed to be good.
First, when Republicans control the federal government, and particularly the White House, spend money like a drunken sailor and run up the US debt as far and as fast as possible. This produces three results it stimulates the economy thus making people think that the GOP can produce a good economy, it raises the debt dramatically, and it makes people think that Republicans are the tax-cut Santa Claus.
Second, when a Democrat is in the White House, scream about the national debt as loudly and frantically as possible, freaking out about how our children will have to pay for it! and we have to cut spending to solve the crisis! This will force the Democrats in power to cut their own social safety net programs, thus shooting their welfare-of-the-American-people Santa Claus.

IMHO the reputation of the US has been damaged beyond repair thanks to 4 years of the russian
agent criminal tRump family & their enablers the GOP KGB. This will seriously effect everything from trade deals to diplomacy not to mention the escalating cold civil war within our borders. Just the fact that we were unable to control an epidemic that caused 100's of thousands of needless deaths will be a constant reminder to US and the world that we are a country that can't be taken seriously, can't be trusted & a country that is morally bankrupt, morally as in apathetic that will do anything for a buck.
I've been binge watching The Americans during this strange pandemic xmas break & a scene hit hard
Showing Reagan making his famous Evil Empire speech. I knew about the speech but what I didn't know, thanks to the show including real news footage, is that he made that speech in front of an evangelical convention. Now, it seems a little odd to me that evangelicals were all anti Soviet Union back then but now they lovingly embrace the guy who works for that same but rebranded Soviet Union.
A part of that Russia Evil Empire speech where Reagan calls for the end of simple minded appeasement, something tRump has done from day one

Nothing like the "pro-life" party eliminating healthcare during a GLOBAL PANDEMIC.
