Walker has refused to say if he’s gotten the COVID-19 vaccine.

I hope he gets everything he deserves. Sports figures and actors should stick with their guns and stay out of politics.

  • Whatever this is, it doesn’t exist , and it’s definitely not “EPA-, FDA-approved,” as he claimed.

This is it. Dems, progressives and independents that want to maintain a democracy have got to find some way to fight against the ‘multiverse’ being created by the right. Swatting down every non-factual claim one-by-one is not only physically impossible, it is also a waste of time. Dems need to lead a Morpheus style campaign to bring politics back to reality.

The cool thing is they cover all the facts and it makes Marshall look bad, not that he needed much help.

Nothing on this though. The Right is all over the “corrected transcript” even though the audio is quite clear. Then they jump all over Sotomayor’s error.

The moron thought he could hector Fauci and get favorable coverage from the local Fox channel. Unfortunately for him all anyone is going to remember from this exchange is that he was called a moron.

Nobody should lie about covid. Not the variants, the level of severity of disease and not snake oil cures or the several vaccines. A politician especially should not lie about this.
Bad bad Mr Walker. Very bad. Your bullshit could cost lives.

Let’s note for the record that the level of discourse in DC and the red states has fallen to a new low. Ninnies + nihilism = nada.

Fauci was being kind … the truth is that Marshall is a flat-out dishonest asshole who knows what he is attempting to do.

Of all of the people in the Senate, Marshall should be one of the ones who comprehends the science, research and critical health issues.

Marshall has a BS in biochemistry
Marshall has an MD and did his residency & practiced as an OB/GYN…
Marshall is not ignorant … he is dishonest… and unethical.
