  2. Yes. You can can be almost certain that Boebert lies with every metabolic process that occurs within her body. But more importantly, the nu (γ) strain of covid-19 is in Belgium now via an unvaccinated individual from Cairo.

    In Hong Kong , the variant spread during hotel quarantine between a person who had arrived from South Africa and another hotel guest who tested positive a few days later, the Department of Health revealed. Both were fully vaccinated.

    It’s all about the lying. And it’s an atypical form of lying, where you try to make others look bad, rather than the common lie, of making yourself look better. Trump-style lying, in other words.

  5. “…calling Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) “the jihad squad” to her face in a Capitol elevator earlier this week.”

    Omar was actually one of the pilots that flew a plane into the The Towers on 9/11. It’s true.
