She needs to be censored and imprisoned.

It's so weird that they don't want abortions to be legal but they basically want spontaneous death to happen after birth.

Yay, baby gambling!

But on the serious note, they want poor to be confused, miserable and desperate. They themselves take all the best healthcare, all shots and boosters, but they want for pandemic to happen because it would occupy ordinary people's minds and also give the government additional abilities to control everyone, while the collapsing market would once again benefit the rich and make poor even poorer. There's no downside for the likes of MTG, Trump and RFK as long as they are in power.

She's a House Representative. As long as the public in her district in, I believe, Georgia, keeps wanting her to be the one to speak for them, she's gonna stay.

Stupid bitch would be advocating for ebola parties if there was a vaccine for it.

[–] medgremlin@midwest.social 3 points 1 day ago

I'm pretty sure they did recently develop a vaccine for Ebola that they are trying to distribute in the affected areas of Africa, but I'm afraid that US governmental funding, the WHO, and American-based NGOs were involved, so who knows if the money exists for the manufacturing and distribution anymore.
