What is sad is people like Lois who think that if I brush my teeth it protects her teeth. Nope. Your vaccine should help you, these are being shown to have more side effects than others, are under EUA, and against Nuremberg code and our Constitution Federal and Missouri.

Liberals believe what suits themselves, regardless of science or facts. If they repeat a lie often enough, it becomes true, in their little world.

Because we have rights as citizens. Our health should be our decision, not Joe Biden.

Not one single death has been recorded from Omicron, yet it will give everyone who gets it antibodies. Omicron is the beginning of the end, to the Covid-19 Pandemic, and the end to the communist fear Agenda.

Everyone needs to be vaccinated so we can control the spread and the mutation of this virus. Why is it that we willingly are vaccinated for the flu,measles,mumps, ect. but resist a free life saving vaccine? Think of the money and lives saved if we can control the outbreak of more mutations

It should not be mandated, it should be a choice. We need more information on the vaccine.

They have a responsibility to their students, faculty, administrators and university workers to keep them safe. Bowing to political pressure does nothing for the safety and health of these people.

I guess students don`t need to be protected from COVID. .... OH WAIT!.....a high percentage of people who are contracting the latest strain of the virus are young people

This is Big Pharma's Current Cash Cow. Protection against Omicron coronavirus variant improves with three vaccine doses, Pfizer says. Pfizer says, Buy my Snake Oil and you will live forever. ROTFLOL

Mask mandates work!

No they don't. Florida has the lowest infection rate in the Nation, and they have used less masking and all other precautions, than all other states.

Trump and his goons in every state in every department are running it into the ground acting like it's the best thing ever and it's not. People are suffering now more then his first term or even during Biden term

Then, you prefer the 9% inflation for 4 straight years, instead of 2.9%. Where did you get your economics degree?

That was during a period of worldwide inflation ... and we were actually doing better than most other advanced countries. Inflation is higher now than when Biden left office.

Compare November 2025 to November 2026 ... roughly same and 2026 figure was held down by the government shutdown. Let's check back at this time next year and you try to explain away the recession.

Inflation is less than 1/3rd of when Biden was in office. Fix your calculator.

Biden tactics were destroying the world's economies.

The U.S. dollar dominates the world economy due to its role as the primary reserve currency, backed by the massive U.S. economy, unmatched financial market liquidity, and historical inertia since the 1944 Bretton Woods system. It facilitates 88% of global exchange transactions, 54% of trade

Incidentally, our previous president has not acquired enough money to build his presidential library, not even enough money for a presidential magazine stand.

Thee truth is hard for some to swallow. Maybe you could find a Biden or Obama clip to watch?

I didn't but have total support for the vast majority of what he has accomplished and is trying to accomplish. The country was harmed greatly by the Democrats, they plundered our wealth, Republicans also played a hand. No more.

Do a little research on how our national debt has grown under republican presidents compared to democrats. Also see how Reagan and "trickle down economics" is what put us on the path to financial ruin while creating the tremendous wealth inequality we see today.

Going back nearly fifty years, when I was in the military, and Carter was the president, the military was starving. As an E-6 with a wife and two children, legally, I qualified for food stamps. Instead, I got a part-time job. Carter, was a far better president than Obama, and Biden. Facts are tough.

You got tired of that with 8 years of Obama and 4 years of Biden. That's over, now.
