Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) on Thursday announced that he has tested positive for COVID-19.
In a statement issued Thursday, Cassidy wrote that he was notified the night before that he was exposed to someone with the coronavirus. When he was tested the following day, Cassidy received a positive result for COVID-19.
Cassidy wrote that he has contacted his physician and is “strictly” complying with CDC recommendations, which includes quarantining for 14 days and alerting those he may have been in contact with.
“I am strictly following the direction of our medical experts and strongly encourage others to do the same,” Cassidy wrote.
Once again, I’m on Team Virus.
Same asshole—an MD no less—who tweeted a video telling people that if they could go to the grocery in a mask that they could vote in person in a mask, so no mail-in voting was necessary.
Herman Cain gave it to him, with a candlestick, in the library.
I’m sure if I looked I could find things Cassidy has said and done that make this highly ironic, but I just don’t feel like wishing for a bad outcome for him. Voted out of office by an enraged populace that wishes we’d handled the pandemic like a sane country, yes, that I would welcome.

Cassidy is his own bad outcome.
Karma will deliver the other outcome Cassidy deserves.
