Nolte: Clueless Media Shocked America ‘Tunes Out’ Omicron’s ‘Ominous Threat’
Breitbart ^ | 12/22/2021 | John Notle

Posted on 12/22/2021 6:45:04 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

The far-left propaganda site Axios fired off this beauty Tuesday: “America tunes out Omicron news despite ominous threat.”

What is the scientific basis for declaring the Omicron variant an “ominous threat?” This variant has been out there for weeks, and so far, only one person in the U.S. has succumbed to it.

The Omicron appears to be more infectious than the Delta, but it’s a little early to be declaring it an “ominous threat.” There’s even a school of thought that says the Omicron variant might be less deadly and, therefore, our way out of this mess. The thinking is that if we all catch this less deadly variant and achieve natural immunity, that’s a win-win route to herd immunity.

The Really big question is:

Do we really need to treat Omicron, if we have to have a test to see if we have this Minor League Infection?

America has pandemic face-diaper fatigue.

A virus with a 99.6% survivability rate is not a pandemic. It’s a good reason to pay extra attention to those with comorbidities, not to lock down everyone else.

The big lie this morning is we are tuning Covid out but the truth is, just as President Trump predicted, MSM lost millions of viewers the second Brandon was sworn in! Has nothing to do with Covid, but of course the pandemic is blamed to cover their arses again!

An ominous threat is Russian TV commercials preparing the population for nuclear war. Omnicron is not a big deal.

Around here, wearing a mask is a rarity usually reserved for old people and children

Nearly $100 billion at minimum has been stolen from COVID-19 relief programs set up to help businesses and people who lost their jobs due to the pandemic, the U.S. Secret Service says.

The estimate is based on Secret Service cases and data from the Labor Department and the Small Business Administration, Roy Dotson, the agency’s national pandemic fraud recovery coordinator, revealed in an interview Tuesday. The Secret Service didn’t include COVID-19 fraud cases prosecuted by the Justice Department.

While roughly 3% of the $3.4 trillion dispersed, the amount stolen from pandemic benefits programs shows “the sheer size of the pot is enticing to the criminals,” Dotson said.

Most of that figure comes from unemployment fraud. The Labor Department reported about $87 billion in unemployment benefits could have been paid improperly, with a significant portion attributable to fraud.
