    At least his propaganda about Covid is consistent with last year. The only difference, he didn't complain about Trump and the Covid infected illegal Mexicans crossing the border. :D

    Yeah ... I was also thinking that the fear of litigation is the motivating factor.

    FOX News is the worst fear-mongering network on TV today. I wouldn't be surprised if someone got tired of their bullshit about Covid and now vaccines especially with Delta Variant now attacking the younger generation...

    They decided to put FOX News in a submission move to force a tap out.

    How come nobody is talking about the Epsilon variant discovered in California? Remember your Greek alphabet dudes. Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon. So many letters left. Oy!

    FYI, I truly believe the next variant with not be zeta, but eta. They will skip a letter, because of Catherine Zeta-Jones.

    You are aware that every adult crossing the border currently, who are apprehended claiming asylum, are tossed right back into Mexico and the unaccompanied kids are kept in cages. The Biden administration plans to extend the Title 42 Policy of not allowing adults to stay due to the COVID emergency restrictions.

    Biden admin rethinking plan to lift Covid restrictions that blocked thousands from crossing border
    The public health order, known as Title 42, was imposed under Trump. The Biden admin planned to lift it, but Covid and border crossings have surged.

    The Biden administration is rethinking its plan to lift Covid-19 restrictions that have blocked more than 750,000 migrants seeking asylum from crossing the southern U.S. border since October, according to three sources familiar with the deliberations.


    The sources said the White House and the Department of Homeland Security had previously targeted July 31 as the date to end the public health order, known as Title 42, in internal discussions. But as of Tuesday, those plans were “in flux” and neither agency had sent plans to Customs and Border Protection on how to phase out the policy.

    CNN was the first to report that the Biden administration is rethinking its plan.

    A White House official said the administration isn’t able to commit to when the policy might end. “As we’ve said before, Title 42 is a public health authority, and that authority rests with the [Centers for Disease Control and Prevention]. We’ll continue to defer to the public health experts on these decisions and don’t have a timeline to preview on specific plans on when Title 42 is no longer needed,” the White House official said, speaking on the condition of anonymity.

    Currently, under Title 42, all migrants except for children who cross the border unaccompanied may be sent back into Mexico without having a chance to have their asylum cases heard in the United States. While many families and some single adults have been allowed in as exceptions, immigration advocacy groups had sued the federal government to guarantee that families be allowed to make their claims in U.S. immigration courts.

    Last month alone, CBP expelled over 55,000 parents and children who attempted to cross the border together. Since October, over 752,000 migrants have been expelled under Title 42.

    The possible pause or reversal of the plan to lift the order, issued by the Trump administration March 20, 2020, follows a surge in Covid cases in the U.S., particularly those caused by the delta variant, and several other recent events that have put pressure on President Joe Biden’s immigration policies.

    Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed last week for a preliminary injunction that would block the Biden administration’s lifting of Title 42 for unaccompanied children crossing the border, as it did at the beginning of the president’s term.

    Also last week, CBP released numbers from June that showed a 21-year high in the number of migrants encountered at the southern border. Some Border Patrol officials have expressed concern that lifting Title 42 would attract even more migrants to make the dangerous journey to the U.S. southern border.

    The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

    The sources familiar with the internal deliberations said no firm decision has been made about when Title 42 might be lifted.

  9. Right now they're stopping nearly 200K per month. Border agents say that for every one detained, four get through. That's nearly 800,000 illegals per month getting through. In the past two weeks 135 of those captured have tested positive for Covid. Safe to conclude that 4 times that have entered. That's 540 Covid positive that came through just in the last two weeks.
    How many people have those 540 infected? Who knows, but it's safe to conclude the number is in the hundreds, perhaps thousands. Two weeks from now it's be tens of thousand infected by just these 540. The surge of illegals continues unabated meaning millions will be infected by illegals coming in over the next couple of months. There's your explanation for the spike in cases. Deny it all you like and you can join the group of retards that pretended all the protests and riots last year had nothing to do with spreading the virus.

    How many people have flown to the U.S. on planes in recent weeks who had COVID and then infected many others? The number certainly is much greater than 540. Unlike other countries we don't require 14 day quarantine for incoming travelers --- so they are free to immediately wander about infecting thousands. This is, after all, how the Delta variant arrived in the U.S. Delta now accounts for 83% of the cases in the U.S.

    In regards to the BLM/ANTIFA riots last year -- I posted numerous articles outlining how they spread COVID. Including health warnings from the protests issued by city/county health departments in the Carolinas outlining COVID cases from these protests and urging attendees to immediately get tested and isolate.
