Unbelievable. Still you libs act like everything went to plan. Never mind the fact that they didn't work 😂

Of course they didn't go to plan. Look who was in charge. But the vaccines absolutely worked. Still do. Once again there's tons of data on it but I suppose you're gonna pretend you're still "just asking questions".

Show me where I'm blind to the left's sins.

You need to own that the actual leadership of Republicans has been fomenting dissent since Trump ascended. He's not a uniter. He drives wedges.

There is no analog on the left.

Nothing Jimmy Kimmel said warrants his termination. The Killer is Maga. Shame on ABC and Disney. It's clear Trump is behind it.

And look what that did to his ratings.

Who exactly are you suggesting was at fault here? Define "worked".

What Waltz said a week and a half ago? Biden with his fascist comments over and over including in front of a red Indy Hall with military behind him, dozens of examples of left politicians using the German name in the 30s and 40s that is censored, the list just keeps going but you want to sit there with blinders on. Whatever

Hes right. But he is also very, very stupid. You would have to watch less than 2 minutes of his pizza reviews to realize that.

Is this MAGA killer of Charlie Kirk in the room with you now?

The Maga Killer voted for Trump. Donated to his campaign, dressed up as Trump for Halloween, posted on right wing websites about and was raised and brought in a gun culture. He is certainly not any less Maga that Kz or Lynch.

The vaccines were and are effective at significantly reducing the rate of infection and the rate of hospitalization from COVID. Like with the flu, that benefit waned with time requiring boosters. New strains dropped effectiveness requiring new formulations, which again happens all the time (eg the yearly flu vaccine, the addition of the Meningococcal B vaccine, expanding the pneumococcal vaccine from covering 9 to 13 to 20 sub variants). It's less effective than the Polio vaccine, but more effective than almost any recent yearly Flu vaccine.

Trump won because of the left. They created him with their divisiveness and policies and they sustain him with it.

and trump create the ultra lib movement we have today. round and round we go.

so again, answer my question, why do you accept the same behavior from trump?

Kimmel got fired because he wasn't funny and his ratings were in the toilet. Whatever he said or didn't say about the Kirk assassination was just an excuse to do what they would have done anyway.

CBS’s Late Show was the only show among the nine tracked by LateNighter to draw more total viewers in Q2 than it had in the first quarter of 2025—although just barely, with the show growing its audience by 1% quarter over quarter. All told, the Stephen Colbert-hosted show averaged 2.42 million viewers across 41 first-run episodes, comfortably outpacing ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! (1.77 million) and NBC’s The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon (1.19 million). In the advertiser-coveted 18–49 demo, however, Kimmel surged ahead with 220,000 viewers—his strongest performance in a year—edging out Colbert (219,000) and leaving Fallon (at 157,000) in a distant third.

Therefore, they did not stop, or even slow the spread as promised. Meanwhile, the government mandated them in in certain sectors. They pushed hard for them in healthy adults and children, who were at very little risk from the disease. You were not allowed to enter (or re-enter) the country and certain states if you didn't show proof of vaccination.

Vaccines were not as effective against variants as the original but they were still effective at reducing deaths and severity of Covid. It's unclear how effective at slowing the spread they were because that's difficult to measure, but numbers show that against Delta and other earlier variants vaccinated populations fared far better.

The only areas where vaccines were mandated was healthcare workers. I don't see that as a major issue and it was the very rare healthcare worker who didn't willingly get vaccinated.

The entry rules applied mainly to air travelers because, ya know, traveling in a cramped metal tube with people that might be carrying a virus transmissible through the air was a going concern in 2021. There were no such restrictions for US citizens and legal residents passing through land borders.

The air travel Covid vaccine requirement was lifted in 2023 under Biden.

You didn't answer my first question.

And despite the "success" of these vaccines, every single person who got the vaccine still got COVID, multiple times. The virus became endemic. The virus mutated dozens of times. The reported deaths continued under Biden.

Even if you're right, by your logic a person would have to get boosted multiple times a year to keep pace with the mutations. Why would anyone do that for a virus that was not a mortal threat to the overwhelming majority of the population?

I look forward to the Day a Democratic President has the FCC pull OAN, Newsweek and Fox licenses for spreading hate speech and lies.

Did you ever consider that maybe Trump should stop saying fascist things like "poisoning the blood of our country"? Maybe stop engaging in authoritarianism?

You seem upset that Trump gets criticized by people like Biden for being "semi-fascist", but less upset when Trump engages in behavior consistent with

.. well, what was going on in Germany 1932.

Biden tried to mandate the vaccine in all manner of places, but thankfully, most of the mandates were overturned in the courts. Healthcare workers was the one that prevailed.
