Cardiac patient dies because there's no ICU beds for him since they're all filled with covid Trumptoids who won't take anyone of "Trump's" three vaccines:

I think I missed the point of the article whereby CNN confirmed her story.  

Can you point that out in the article?

My  guess is that its just more BS news from CNN which has been caught with their pants down before. 

Nothing to see here.

Anything else that you have to divert the subject of this thread?  

"My  guess is that its just more BS news from CNN which has been caught with their pants down before."
Your guess?! Lol! You don't know what you're talking about. 
And there have been other such examples of non covid patients with heart attacks, strokes or other serious illnesses that have not been able to access ICU beds because they're filled with non-vaccinated Trumptois who didn't take any one of "Trump's" three vaccines...

Prove it.  All you have is CNN reporting in their completely unprofessional manner of not verifying what they claim.

Show me where CNN Called the hospital and verified that there no "specialized cardiac ICU beds", the TYPE Of bed her father needed.

Go ahead and show me.  

In other words prove the BS you relayed here.  

I submit that you cannot, because you're simply a tool of the Leftist Democrat Party.  

I'm waiting for your proof.  

It's obvious you didn't read the article or you can't comprehend it:
"An influx of Covid-19 patients has overwhelmed ICUs in Alabama, State Health Officer Dr. Scott Harris said.
Alabama was short 60 ICU beds as of Friday -- an increase in need from one week earlier, when the state was down 40 ICU beds.
That means there are 60 patients "who are receiving critical care because they're chronically ill and yet they don't have an ICU bed," Harris said Friday.
"They're being cared for in an emergency department or a ward bed that's been converted to an ICU room or on a gurney in the hallway."
"The level of care he required was not available at Cullman Regional," Jennifer Malone told the Post.
"When patients are transported to other facilities to receive care that they need, that's becoming increasingly more difficult because all hospitals are experiencing an increased lack of bed space," Malone said."
"Situations like the one faced by the DeMonia family are an "ongoing problem" during the Covid-19 surge, she told the Post.
"CNN has tried to contact members of Ray DeMonia's family and has reached out to the Cullman Regional Medical Center for comment."
In the case at hand, the patient had to be airlifted to a hospital in Mississippi but it was too late...

I'm still waiting for the verification of the headline that you were supposed to supply, where someone verifies that her father died because he couldn't find the "Specialized Cardiac ICU bed" that the daughter claimed he needed and was taken up by a Covid patient.

Nor did you produce any evidence that the Covid positive patients were Trump supporters.

This is simply another thing that you claim regularly.

Now then, show me in the article where it says all these patients were unvaccinated.   

We're hearing many reports of vaccinated people getting Covid.  

I submit that these unvaccinated were Leftist Democrats who followed Kamala Harris's advice, when she said "if the Trump admin. produces a vaccine and he tells me to get it, I won't take it".  

Lastly, I'd suggest rather than making this diversion into another subject, you might want to address the title of the thread I started here, which is about the left claiming :

"My body, my choice", with respect to being able to kill an unborn baby in the womb.

Enough diversions weasel.  

"Americans who say they will definitely not get vaccinated against COVID-19 are overwhelmingly white and Republican, according to polling by the Kaiser Family Foundation."
"More than 90% of the hospitalized Covid-19 patients are unvaccinated"
"In Austin, Texas, "Our ICU capacity is reaching a critical point where the level of risk to the entire community has significantly increased, and not just to those who are needing treatment for COVID," Austin-Travis County Health Authority Dr. Desmar Walkes said in a statement.
"If we fail to come together as a community now, we jeopardize the lives of loved ones who might need critical care."
In Mississippi, Covid-19 hospitalizations have increased significantly -- including among younger patients, State Health Officer Thomas Dobbs said. All 88 beds in the University of Mississippi Medical Center's intensive care unit had filled up by Friday, according to data from the state's health department.
And in Louisiana, "We're becoming victims of the unvaccinated," said Dr. Christopher Thomas, critical care physician at Our Lady of the Lake Regional Medical Center in Baton Rouge.
"We currently are overwhelming our bed capacity. We're creating burnout for our teams. And honestly, we're beginning to impact the rest of the health care for the community."

And, all along, the anti masker and anti vaccer Trumptoids proclaim, "My Body, My Choice"!!! That pertains to the woman's right to choose, too!

Because you write it isn't evidence. 

Show me where the polling says "white Republicans".

Or you can fail in providing any proof.  

Here ya go:

"What do you guys want?" Miller, then a top adviser to President Donald Trump, asked incredulously, according to one person in the room. "A bunch of Iraqs and 'Stans across the country?"
"His words stunned many in the meeting, but they were no accident. Under Miller's guidance, several sources told CNN, the Trump administration was purposefully slow-walking the entry of all refugees -- including allies who aided American soldiers in Afghanistan."

Well, I do live in California and I don't want a governor who believes in this:

Nor do I think your statement of "Based on the historic election of president Barak Obama,  Larry Elder should win in a landslide." has any basis on voting for him or anybody else.

As far as Politico's fact checking on his Elder's statements goes:

First he said what he said and he meant what he said. There was no backtracking or clarification of it from him. 
And for the second point that you stated, that of slave reparations, it could be rationally argued that the descendants of such victims of slavery could potentially be entitled to compensation for loss of land, and/or family entitlements emanating from rape of an ancestor(s).
