Well, I wouldn’t say quicker.  It’s definitely the longer way and the one involving more dead children... but that seems to be okay with folks like #DeathSantis.

You’re not comparing like numbers. The Texas COVID workbook page linked in the article has categories for both Hispanic and White separately, which means the White segment on that page doesn’t include Hispanics.

This isn’t quite true. As a percentage of their respective populations, more white Texans are vaccinated than black Texans. But it’s not a huge difference. Like 10%. Of course by raw numbers there are more unvaccinated white Texans than black Texans because there are just more whites.

When someone recently got up to the mic in a town hall in Florida and asked what, if anything, DeSantis would be doing differently if he WANTED more people to get sick with COVID... I thought it was just a sick burn.

That was the goal too. It just failed.

then claiming the lack of rights for women and girls under the government that resulted from that movement as one of the justifications for invasion

This is absolutely the plan. While accusing Democrats of wanting to prolong the pandemic for political gain they are working to... prolong the pandemic for political gain.

It’s sometimes difficult to determine exactly what mix of evil and stupid a given Republican politician is. DeSantis might have the idea that he’s the inheritor of Trump’s throne. Except Trump hasn’t exactly handed over the crown yet. A lot of people think Trump will run again in 2024. Does DeSantis think he could win…

Yeah, perspective time: CDPR delayed their game several times too, each time citing the same “we want to get it right” rhetoric before ultimately releasing it in the state it was in.

Luckily for us, he’s a moron

I just made the mistake of reading an article with a bunch of quotes from Sturgis Motorcycle Rally-goers. They think it’s the media and politicians hyping up COVID still.

Yeah, I didn’t have a chance to watch the video earlier but they mention the pins couldn’t be lifted. Not entirely sure what they are saying has four layers. Maybe they mean the substrate the silicon is mounted to?

I must be missing something. Why destroy the wire bonds inside the package when they just lead out to two pins that are exposed on the outside of the package?

Calling it “magical thinking” is giving him at least 50% more credit than he deserves.

This. The other thing is that they are likely unconstitutional. The state can’t forbid teachers from talking about racism to their students. It just can’t. But Republicans also don’t care about that either. They score points with their voters whether these sorts of laws are eventually struck down or not just like they…

If his parents were worth $42 million, he wouldn’t be flying coach on Frontier.

Oh good luck with that. It’s time for another round of “A progressive President would magically get shit done!” here on Jez.

You can’t reason with these people. Their propaganda is telling them it’s the Democrats who want to prolong the pandemic for political reasons and yet it makes no sense. Democrats are doing things that would end the pandemic, not prolong it.

Just remember that we live in a country where enough people would rather die than be told by a Democrat the government to put on a mask and get vaccinated.

The people most opposed to mask mandates don’t oppose it because of liberty, or personal freedom, or government overreach; if they passed a law tomorrow that everyone had to wear a gun in public for safety reasons
