Sometimes I hear things…..

A “friend” is telling me that the White House is in a panic because a new strain of Covid has been discovered in the “migrants” they are letting in. It’s possibly vaccine resistant.

They are so worried that they are considering actually shutting down the border “completely” because they don’t want to be blamed for unleashing it on the American people.

My “friend” is pretty well connected……he says 3-5 days and this either blows over (not vaccine resistant) or a major announcement about the border will be coming……….this info is from a friend who lives in MD and works in Va.

If there is a new variant that is vaccine resistant coming over the border, it's much too late. Can't put the toothpaste back in the tube. No worries though, it will be Trump's fault.

Definitely will be Trump's fault.

In fact, I've started blaming him already just to be sure.

So basically you are saying these scumbags might be unleashing a strain on the US that puts everyone back at high risk all because they want to dump illegal immigrants into purple states and eventually turn them blue all while pretending it's humanitarian. Go it.

If they thought 1/6 was bad, wait until it's not a few thousand crazies. Next time it might be a few million pissed off average Joe Americans.

I cannot imagine what might happen if this new strain is vaccine resistant.

This person who told me this works for a very public company that is regulated by the government and he is paranoid as hell……..but he has rarely shared anything important with me. He’s sharing it with others too.

Spooky

This is why Joe DeMentia came out swinging against Texas and Florida recently about rising cases. He was instructed to get out in front of this.

Obama blamed George Bush all the way till January 20, 2017 at 11:59am, you think the Biden administration would stop blaming Trump inside of a year?

I don't see them closing the border. They just as soon have it spread and kill as many as possible. The ruling class will keep their distance, take precautions, and let nature do the rest.
If there's indeed a new strain run amok, there's a good chance democrats had a hand in it...just as with the initial virus.

Exactly. The horses have left the barn. As usual, the dimwits are a day late and a dollar short.

If his last name is Mulder I'd find this a lot more believable
