      I was just thinking in a sane world, that headline would have ended “and the governmental organizations are working with local groups and leading experts on preventing the spread”

        They where preventing the spread but decided not to. What else do you expect from antivaxers. Don’t see the benifet cause they have never seen the harm.

      Yeah but that’s not engagement maxxing. He’s gonna stretch this out for the ratings. One article isn’t enough gotta slap the citizens with a cliff hanger, and the next article would say “the republicans offer humanitarian efforts to thwart sleepy Joe fumble when screworm with this one simple concept” Few months later the last article comes out about the screworm it was then screwing the citizens in some way and suddenly believes in socialism to bail out the Epstein class with our tax dollars or some useless but smart sounding to their supporters with something they will just eat up:

      “THE VERY AWAKE, NOST VENERABLE, GREATEST EVER, AND BIGGEST INTELLIGENCE PRESIDENT SINGLE-HANDEDLY ACHIEVES WORLD SAVING BREAKTHROUGH WHILE PERFORMING ADVANCED MENTAL COMPUTATIONS WITH HIS EYES CLOSED LIKE RUSSEL CROWE IN ‘A BEAUTIFUL MIND’ HE WAS NOT SLEEPING: BURSTING BOTANICAL FEROMONE BARRIERS USING IVERMECTIN BOOSTED SOUND WAVES BY FLICKING IVERMECTIN DUST OFF THE STRINGS OF KID ROCK’S GUITAR STRINGS ON AN AIRPLANE RIDE TO ALL MY GOLF COURSES CRITICAL LOCATIONS ACROSS THE INFECTED AREAS TO HALT SCREWWORM SPREAD IN SOUTHERN PASTURES. ​Eco-Group RedHats deploys ‘Acoustic-Mimicry Moss’ to disrupt larvae migratory patterns naturally using distasteful washed up bigot rock artist’s guitar strings atomizing the ivermectin so when the worms breathe they breathe in this nano ivermectin powder harnesses the power of our prayers to destroy the illegal invader worms that sleepy Joe Biden and Barrack Hussain Obama didn’t stop the worms between the years of 2017-2021…”

          Oh yeah, you’re right. I mean it’s not like it’s one of their favorite talking points, like border control, to the point where republicans would deliberately torpedo bipartisan legislation that they had helped to draft, during Biden’s presidency, specifically because trump told them to block it, because he didn’t want Biden to have a border win…

            For Republicans it’s not how many times they can shoot themselves in the foot, but how many of their enemies they can hit with collateral damage in the process.
