Rep. Ronny Jackson , R-Texas, says omicron is just the latest deep state plot to distract America.
The former White House physician claimed the worrisome variant is a hoax that Democrats will use to impose new COVID-19 mail-in ballot rules.
Here comes the MEV the Midterm Election Variant! They NEED a reason to push unsolicited nationwide mail-in ballots, Jackson, who holds a medical degree, tweeted.
Democrats will do anything to CHEAT during an election but were not going to let them! Jackson added.
Jackson, a staunch supporter of former President Donald Trump, was effectively spewing the latest version of the right-wing conspiracy theory that holds virtually any action taken by President Joe Biden or his public health officials is designed to help their electoral prospects.

(10,281 posts)Is that we can still DO nuance, and understand when one of ours is fucking over the rest of us for political points and cheaply won power. The whole existant Republican Party at this point, is a self made troll farm for the sole purpose of making Donald Trump feel better about his tiny, inadequate....hands.

That's not crazy at all.

(8,864 posts)The anti-democracy people have no limits on the lies they will tell and they are willing to pull down the USA for most people to get their ends (and frankly imo most of the rank and file GOP are absolutely clueless as to where they are being led).
About time for each instance to be met aggressively but doubt if this is in the cards.
GOP narrative at this point is that the Democratic Party is willing to write off the midterms and 2024 because of what is hidden in BBB.
It is going to get worse. Wish I knew what to do.

Like all the European doctors and epidemiologists. And 99% of anyone who has credentials and has spoken out about Omicron.
Only Jackson and his trusty band of trumpanzees know the real story! They've done their research online and found it out!
