Trump’s “Operation Warp Speed” clearly didn’t speed up anything, since the first vaccine out of the gate wasn’t even part of the program.

– The Republican Governor of Nebraska is now claiming that legalizing marijuana will lead to the death of your kids. No really, he said this. It’s strange how the people who think marijuana will kill you are the same people who think you don’t need a mask in a pandemic.
