#bioterrorists

A whole bunch of emails and inside paperwork reviewed by WIRED reveal high lobbyists and representatives of America’s agricultural trade led a persistent and infrequently covert marketing campaign to surveil, discredit, and suppress animal rights organizations for practically a decade, whereas counting on company spies to infiltrate conferences and functionally function an informant for the…

Republicans have acted like bio-terrorists since the start of the pandemic – bio-terrorists who know little about biology and have a deep disdain for real science. 

They learned the hard way that being an arsonist is no guarantee that you won’t get burnt badly.

Their actions have afflicted the nation as a whole with more disease and death and economic crisis than good leadership aligned with science might have, and, in spite of hundreds of thousands of well-documented deaths and a new surge, they continue. Their malice has become so normal that its real nature is rarely addressed. Call it biological warfare by propaganda.

At the outset of the pandemic, as Seattle and New York City became hard hit, Republicans apparently imagined that the pandemic would strike Democratic states and cities first, and certainly in 2020 Black, Latinx and indigenous people were disproportionately affected. To put it clearly, Republicans enabled a campaign of mass death and disablement, thinking it would be primarily mean death and illness for those they regarded as opponents.

Democratic governors, Native nations and people with moderate-to-leftwing views have done a better job of protecting against this scourge. The worst-hit areas in the country are now Republican-led states and regions. At one point recently, Florida under raging science denier Governor Ron DeSantis, with about 7.5% of the US population, accounted for 20% of all new Covid cases. The governors of Florida and Texas have banned mask mandates, making attempts to protect public health, including that of children, acts of defiance by cities and school districts.

Republicans, now the party of personal irresponsibility, are trying to blame migrants for the recent surge. There’s a major flaw of logic which undermines that accusation.

Remember the biggest COVID-19 surge? That’s the one from late September 2020 to early January 2021 which occurred when Trump was holding superspreader campaign rallies. That wave and the previous two waves all took place when Donald “Build That Wall!” Trump was in the White House. His idiotic wall did not prevent the US from becoming the country with the most COVID infections and deaths.

If anybody is looking for the original sin of the botched the US pandemic crisis, then read Trump’s initial reaction on 22 January 2020 at CNBC.  

That was just the start. Here’s a comprehensive timeline of Trump’s pandemic failures.
