They say something stupid. It gets covered by ATT funded Newsmax, then from there it gets spammed everywhere online.

Move to Europe then son of orange turd!Trump Jr. Blasts Americans As 'Sheep' For Not Protesting COVID Restrictions
Donald Trump Jr. lauded European protests against COVID-19 restrictions — and trashed Americans as “sheep” for not doing the same.
In comments to Fox News host Dan Bongino, Trump Jr. said “Europe is pushing back.”
But America, he continued, “is sitting there like sheep. 'Oh, this is great. We'll just go along with what these guys who've gotten nothing right in the last two years tell us.' “
“It's absolute insanity," Trump Jr. said.
Trump Jr. also alleged the U.S. media was deliberately not reporting on the recent wave of protests in Europe over winter restrictions, including some that turned into riots.
The Associated Press has regularly reported on the unrest, as have broadcast outlets including the New York Times , ABC News, and NBC News
"You don't hear about what's going on as it relates to the riots in Europe on a daily basis now against the vaccine mandates because our media wants to block that out," Trump Jr. alleged.
"They're going to make sure that you never hear about it because they don't want you getting these kind of ideas that freedom may actually still exist in some parts of the world."
Several European countries have introduced measures to combat the spread of COVID-19 as winter approaches, and the United Sates introduced requirements for federal workers to be vaccinated.
Earlier this month, Morning Consult noted the United States has higher rates of vaccine hesitancy than most European countries.
In the same interview with Fox, Trump Jr. criticized President Joe Biden for abandoning his cure for cancer efforts. While vice president in the Obama administration he led the Cancer Moonshot Taskforce and after the term ended he started the Biden Center Initiative.
"He was also going to cure cancer, if I remember correctly, Dan," Trump Jr. told Bongino. "Remember that? Everyone was, 'Oh, that's great, we should definitely elect him.' I haven't seen much movement on that."

I started smoking when I was 13, in 1974. A nickel was as much as would fit in the old match boxes (slightly larger than match boxes today). Ounces were 20-25 bucks, and with math being my safe space, I quickly started buying ounces and selling nickels. That same year my parents busted me with a 1/4 pound so I stopped smoking until my senior year of high school.

Doctor who discovered omicron explains the symptoms to watch out for
The South African doctor who was the first to detect the COVID-19 omicron variant described most of the symptoms as “extremely mild” when alerting people what to look out for.
“It actually started with a male patient who’s around the age of 33,” Angelique Coetzee, chairwoman of the South African Medical Association, told the BBC on Sunday, adding, “And he said to me that he’s just [been] extremely tired for the past few days and he’s got these body aches and pains with a bit of a headache.”
Unlike traditional coronavirus patients and those with the delta variant, the patient didn’t report a sore throat, but rather a scratchy throat. He also didn’t develop a cough or loss of taste or smell.
As Coetzee began to notice these same symptoms in other patients who were testing positive for COVID-19 as well, she alerted South Africa's Ministerial Advisory Committee.
“What we are seeing clinically in South Africa — and remember I’m at the epicenter of this where I’m practicing — is extremely mild, for us [these are] mild cases,” Coetzee said. “We haven’t admitted anyone, I’ve spoken to other colleagues of mine and they give the same picture.”

THMQ-hightimes market quotes blew my mind as a kid. I couldn't figure out wtf was going on out in CA, didn't understand they were quoting modern type strains grown with modern methods...those prices seemed crazy. Texas bulk prices were less than half the local market, so that was cool.
It was absolutely fascinating to me at the time. CA finally started making sense when their super weed made it our way, but it was still pretty rare. Weed that cost more than 100 an ounce really took a lot of convincing.

When I came home from the Navy in 1983, weed had got to 85-90 an ounce. But that was still cheaper than Navy town prices.
I stopped smoking and growing for 11 years when my wife was rich and famous. (it should have been 12 years, but I had a couple ounces left and had trouble stopping until it was gone, then started back growing a few months early too) The last couple of years before my break, (around 2004) I was paying 125 for imported.

Pfizer CEO has 'high level of confidence' COVID-19 pill will be effective against omicron
Speaking to CNBC's "Squawk Box" host Meg Tirrell, Bourla said Pfizer could commit to delivering 80 million courses of Paxlovid, the COVID-19 treatment for which the company requested emergency use authorization earlier this month.
"We are right now clearly can commit 80 million doses. It is thanks to — you have seen our manufacturing machine really at work and they just can make it and I'm very, very pleased that we are in this situation," said Bourla.
The CEO noted that there are many unknowns about the omicron variant and more data should become available in the coming weeks. However, Bourla said Paxlovid was designed in anticipation of future possible mutations.
"So that gives me very, very high level of confidence that the treatment will not be affected, our oral treatment will not be affected by this virus. When it comes to the vaccine, remains to be seen. I don't think that the result will be the vaccines don't protect," said Bourla, adding a new vaccine may be needed if current vaccines are shown to be significantly less protective against omicron.
When requesting authorization for its oral COVID-19 treatment from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Pfizer said it reduced the risk of hospitalization and deaths by 89 percent. The treatment involves taking three pills twice daily for five days. It is recommended that patients start a course of Paxlovid within five to 10 days of symptoms occurring.
The treatment works by using a combination of an antiviral drug developed by Pfizer along with the HIV treatment drug ritonavir to stop SARS-CoV-2 from replicating. Merck has also requested authorization for its COVID-19 treatment drug molnupiravir

'Fox & Friends' hosts suggest new variant meant to distract from Biden's struggles
The hosts of "Fox & Friends Weekend" on Saturday suggested that warnings from public health officials about the emergence of the new omicron variant of the coronavirus could be an attempt to distract from several challenges President Biden is facing.
"Pete Buttigieg, our Transportation secretary ... has said we can't fix the supply chain problem until the pandemic is over, until COVID is over, and now we see these new variants," said Rachel Campos-Duffy, the wife of former Rep. Sean Duffy (R-Wis.) and a co-host on the weekend morning show. "That's the answer, is more lockdowns, more lockdowns, more fear and therefore he does not have to do his job."
Members of Biden's administration, Campos-Duffy suggested, are thinking to themselves "we'll just keep this whole thing going," in reference to the pandemic.
"There's always a new variant," co-host Will Cain said.
"And there's always a new variant," Pete Hegseth, the show's third co-host, said as well. "Count on a new variant every October."
Campos-Duffy laughed.
"They could speed up," Cain said, also chuckling. "The new variants and the boosters and the emergencies."
Hegseth held his hand up to his ear, imitating a phone call by top federal officials. "We're going to need to a new variant here," he joked. "My God."

No, there is no global conspiracy against Republicans. After all, the Earth is flat as far as they are concerned and they basically ignore anything outside of the continental US.
