GOP Sen. Ron Johnson Suggests COVID Can Be Treated With Listerine


Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) suggested during a tele-town hall appearance in Wisconsin, that using mouthwash might be a good way to treat the novel coronavirus, assuring supporters that a simple bottle of Listerine could be all you need to beat the virus.

Wait a minute!  The dumbest member of the US Senate said what?  Now, I don’t pretend to know anything about Listerine curing the coronavirus, but if it makes those Trump supporters’ breath smell any better, then I’m all for it!  Who knew Listerine would one day become “the new ivermectin” for the MAGA set?


So, “a gargle a day, keeps the virus away?”  Hell, information like that is almost enough to make folks like Aaron Rodgers switch doctors - from Joe Rogan, over to Ron Johnson.  Now, laugh if you want, but it appears that no one really seems to have a real working knowledge about all these COVID “cures” like Republican politicians do.    


You know, things like injecting disinfectant, bombarding your body with UV light, sniffing glue, swallowing earthworms, snorting snuff, chewing lightbulbs, and eating leaded paint chips.  In other words, you’re basically free to do anything other than what the CDC recommends, because as any loyal Republican will tell you - the whole focus of America’s COVID response - should be about “Owning the Libs.”


Frankly, I’m a little surprised Sen. Johnson didn’t mention that of all the “treatments” now available to the Republican faithful, death is the only one that can truly be considered as a 100% effective COVID cure.  In fact, the data show many MAGA supporters have actually “chosen to take that cure.”  


Now, if only medical science can just somehow manage to come up with a cure for stupidity, we’d be in a helluva lot better shape as a nation.  Speaking of which, isn’t it about time we seriously consider sending Ron Johnson off to one of those nice Wisconsin assisted living facilities?  A place where he’d be free to discuss COVID “cures” to his heart’s content.

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War:  In a fiery speech, arguing that impeachment would disenfranchise Donald Trump’s supporters, defense lawyer David Schoen is being harshly criticized for his thinly veiled threat - warning that impeaching the former president could very well result in even more violence from Donald Trump’s easily enraged base. So, if I understand Schoen’s argument correctly, it sounds as if he’s implying that “if you bring Trump to trial, then that angry, violent mob who attacked the Capitol, wanting to hang Vice President Pence and kill various members of Congress, might get really, really mad again - and there will be reprisals.”   You know, we’re talking stuff like ”Nice country you have here - be a damn shame if something were to happen to it!”  In other words, Schoen’s trying to incite violence, in defense of a man who’s facing trial - over inciting violence.  They don’t teach you that in law school.   Now, is it jus...

Trump Returns to Do White House Coronavirus Briefings Solo

Trump Returns to Do White House Coronavirus Briefings Solo:  Three months after he abandoned the daily virus briefings and attempted to turn the country’s attention to what he described as the “great American comeback,” President Trump took the lectern in the White House briefing room alone on Tuesday, free to say whatever he wanted without any distractions from the usual bunch “sciencey nerds” behind him. And, in a rare moment of candor, Trump reluctantly admitted that the spread of the coronavirus will likely get worse before it gets better, and that people should probably wear masks.  Well said Mr President!  The fact is, most of us are already rather optimistic things will begin to get better - sometime after November 3rd. Ironically, now that Trump is finally admitting the virus is spreading fast and that people should wear masks, you’d think most of those armed militia thugs, whom Trump egged on to to out and “liberate” those Democratic run states from t...

Former Trump National Security Advisor Warns ‘Deep State’ Putting COVID Vaccine in Salad Dressing

Former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, who was fired and then prosecuted for lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russia before being ultimately pardoned by Trump, is now sliding further into the QAnon conspiracy world, telling the hosts of an online show dedicated to COVID and election fraud conspiracies - that he has heard the “Deep State” is attempting to “sneak coronavirus vaccine into salad dressing.” Now, I have no idea where Gen. Flynn got this information, but my guess is it was probably a text from Mike Lindell or Rudy Giuliani, alerting him to the “hidden dangers of salad dressing.”  Or, it could have been Nicki Minaj for all I know.  After all, she does have another cousin who has a friend in Timbuktu.  Word on the street has it the “Deep State” will initially start with “Ranch Dressing” to vaccinate the cowboys, then move on to “Russian Dressing,” to get the rest of Trump’s supporters. Anyway, I hate to rain on Gen. Flynn’s conspiracy the...
