RebelGeek99<p>Many of the most powerful Republicans and their bipartisan enablers will be soon crammed into an indoors space, with seasonally high flu and another C19 surge, probably no NPI's except maybe the HVAC infrastructure, no testing, and likely lots of near-field contact, big hearty belly laughs, while gloating over their magnanimous sweep of the federal government in a Red Trifecta. </p><p>Let them fester in their own filth.
