The pandemic turned lots of people into stone cold idiots. They honestly think medical experts = "a bunch of people just tying to tell me what I can and can't do and take my freedoms away"

The stupidity has always been there but the pandemic just showed how extremely bad it is around the world...especially in this country.
Just look how people that allowed the religious right take over this country. Instead of countering the bullshit they've allowed that bullshit to flourished since the 50's.
It makes me sick that so many people not understanding elementary science but somehow listen to fake experts on social media.
This shit is corny. Let Larry David pick whoever he wants for the role.
Cheryl Hines 'iced out' of Larry David's new HBO show with the Obamas

Cheryl Hines's hopes of reuniting on screen with her longtime TV husband Larry David are fading fast - and the Obamas may be to blame, Daily Mail can reveal.
The comedian and screenwriter was recently revealed to be working on a new HBO comedy series to mark America's 250th anniversary next year, with the former president and first lady to serve as producers.
The show, which will consist of six half-hour episodes, is expected to see many of the stars from David's hit sitcom Curb Your Enthusiasm reunite on set.
But insiders tell Daily Mail that Hines's marriage to Trump's Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is all but certain to rule her out.
According to sources, Barack and Michelle Obama, whose production company Higher Ground is producing the show, are 'vehemently opposed' to Hines having any part in the project due to her political alliances.
The 59-year-old actress otherwise would have likely been a 'natural choice shoo-in' after famously playing David's character's wife on Curb Your Enthusiasm for all 12 seasons.
They really gonna et this dumb ass demon spawn kill us all?

Senators grilled R.F.K. Jr. on vaccines
Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. delivered a defiant defense of his vaccine policy today during a fiery Senate hearing, responding at times with clear disdain for the senators, public health data and the Centers for Disease Control. Here are five takeaways.The hearing before the Senate Finance Committee suggested that Kennedy is on uncertain ground even with some Republicans. Several, including two doctors — Senator Bill Cassidy of Louisiana and John Barrasso of Wyoming — were particularly tough in their questioning, especially when it came to Kennedy’s vaccine skepticism.
Cassidy, who voted to confirm Kennedy on the condition that he wouldn’t disrupt access, said at the hearing: “Effectively, we’re denying people vaccine.”
“You’re wrong,” Kennedy shot back.
The health secretary was there to defend his department’s proposed 2026 budget. But the hearing descended into a free-for-all over Kennedy’s decision to fire the director of the C.D.C. He told senators that he dismissed her because she responded “no” when he asked her if she was “trustworthy.”
In one contentious exchange with Senator Mark Warner, Democrat of Virginia, Kennedy said he did not know how many Americans had died of Covid and whether the vaccines prevented Covid-related deaths. “The problem is they didn’t have the data,” he said. The senator replied: “You are sitting as secretary of health and human services. How can you be that ignorant?”
