Oh yeah, that because Obama did it. 
It's similar to Trump saying we wouldn't be hearing anything about the pandemic after the election...

3000+/Day Covid Deaths Ignored By Conservative "Media"

Posted By Rod Kaufman

Politics has its perks. Look at Rudy and his covid treatment. That SOB immediately got TWO different monoclonal antibody infusions that people in Colorado, for example, can only get by winning their chance for it by a lottery. Meanwhile, somebody likely far more deserving than him probably died. Then, what does Rudy do when he leaves the ICU? He pans masks and says he got VIP treatment because he's a "celebrity". What a hapless POS...

3000+/Day Covid Deaths Ignored By Conservative "Media"

Posted By Rod Kaufman

I recall Davis asking why nobody talks about the death rate of Covid. He ought to be asking why conservative media isn't talking about it. There's plenty of discussion about it on normal news channels other than Faux, Newmax and, of course, OAN. But if you listen and watch the latter, you're ignorant about it. Instead,  you'll be inundated by conspiracy theories, bogus "facts" and the current nonsense of Trump's "The Big One" before the supreme court. Good luck with that...

Supreme Court, Of Course, Rejects Texas Lawsuit: "Kraken" Is Kaput!

They were giddy with excitement, too. The big, bad conspiracy theory is, as it always was, vaporware. And 100s of GOP lawmakers signed on to that crap. Anything to subvert democracy to please their base and keep those campaign donations coming in...

I'm half serious. The EC electors from Michigan will have police escorts and protection on Monday for the vote at the state capital. I'm worried about the few nuts who feel they have nothing to lose, no job, no skills, no girlfriend, no future, and will try to do something big like McVeigh or the 9/11 hijackers did. 
It's is serious when you consider the rhetoric of the right wingers. Consider the Arizona Republican party who tweeted: "Are You Ready to Fight to the Death to Support Trump?" Followed by a quote from a Rambo movie that goes to your latter point: "Live for nothing, or die for something.”
I already posted as clip of the rabid Georgia hicks spewing their vitriol about  non-existent voter fraud and you see what they are.
