These guys spend all day spreading nonsense conspiracies that media figures and most of the left promote without investigation. This is no different than the voter fraud stuff, only gets more prominent support.
FL was more transparent w their data than most states so you could see both methods, but hospitalizations/deaths speak for themselves (FL is below national average).

Deaths claim was nonsense from May 2020 (!!!) where TBT confused excess deaths w Covid deaths over short period.
Again, repeating the same baseless conspiracies for a year now while we have the real data in front of us. All because they'd rather keep digging than admit they were wrong about DeSantis and the FL approach.

Meanwhile, wealthy people from all over spent all winter in FL.
But yea, completely makes sense for people with hundreds of thousands of followers to cite a tweet from KMaC8322739 as evidence that FL is actually hiding all these secret Covid-19 deaths.
All the usual suspects. I didn't manage to get a screenshot before Chris Hayes deleted his RT, but half the responses clearly originated with him.

Pathetic.

Middle school and younger high school students are the ones facing the most harm from keeping schools closed. What these selfish clowns are doing to children is unconscionable. Those kids will pay the price for this for years to come.
Get rid of public-sector unions and fire anyone that refuses to actually do their job. Teaching is not a job you can effectively do from home. If you don't like it, get a new profession. But we can't let these people continue to hold hostage the health of millions of children.
Oh and btw it's not like these kids are going to be sitting in these homerooms alone. That means schools will be paying for other adults to sit there with the students while the teachers zoom from home. Apparently, it's fine for those minimum wage adults.

Even a basic look at the data w/o cherry-picking makes it clear these claims are false. Vaccines reduce severe cases, hospitalizations, and deaths at an incredible rate, & have shown very limited side effects.

And as we get more data re the impact, the more the moves goalposts.
"Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine was 98.9% effective at preventing COVID-19 deaths... 99.2% effective in preventing serious disease, decreased morbidity by 95.8% and decreased the likelihood of hospitalization by 98.9%."

"Post-COVID vaccine, under 0.3% of Israelis reported side effects to doctor"

biospace.com/article/israel…

Again, we have real-world data on a large scale to disprove these claims he's using to convince people not to take a miracle solution that can save lives & return to normal.

Smh.

The left tends to misuse and overuse racism accusations, but Nick Fuentes is a legitimate white supremacist. I would rather he be ignored, but this is despicable normalization and mainstreaming of actual bigotry.
If a Democrat member of Congress appears at a Farrakhan rally, right-leaning media would be going nuts. And rightly so.

Gosar also helped plan and promote the Jan 6th rally. He's a disgrace that doesn't belong near Congress.
Here is just a small sample of Fuentes quotes and views that range from Holocaust denial to overt racism: canarymission.org/individual/Nic…

"Personal truth"

An entitled student made a false allegation of racial profiling while lying about details. The school and the press ignored the facts and pretended it was true.

The only people that did nothing wrong here were the staffers that got punished.
That student didn't just lodge a false accusation of racial bias, but then she publicly smeared the staffers involved as racists and posted their pictures on Facebook. She then accused the Smith admin of "enabling racists"

She ruined lives & somehow was never punished.
And look at the take from the ACLU lawyer that helped lead this smear campaign. Somehow we are supposed to ignore that they tried to ruin several lives based on false accusations of racism because racism otherwise exists as if such incidents don't hurt the fight against it.

This is the problem with lying to people and suggesting kids are randomly being out in cages because your political opponents are in charge...
There are no cages. There never were.

Unaccompanied minors that cross the border are put in detention facilities temporarily. They are then transferred to ORR custody & put in shelters. ORR then looks 4 sponsors (such as family) to take them in while their cases get adjudicated.
Of course, those facilities aren't perfect, but it's also not easy to maintain facilities for tens of thousands of people at the border. It's even more difficult when you have surges at the border caused by policy anouncements (~2014) or spacing challenges due to a pandemic.

This thread is false. As is usually the case with viral threads from this account. The EPA granted Texas the exact waivers they were asking for, just adding in reporting requirements.
You can read the actual order in the second tweet in the thread. As usual, that account invents a story based on partial facts.

The feds also granted the emergency declaration, which Abbott just announced: gov.texas.gov/news/post/gove…
As for portion requiring at least $1500 MWH: That's just what the wholesale price has to be to retailers for the portion of power that exceeds regulations to discourage using it casually, but it's way below market right now anyways. Here is what wholesale market looks like now:
