The elites of journalism and politics — 630 of them! — gathered just over a week ago for the 137th annual Gridiron Club and Foundation dinner. The New York Times describes the fête as “an annual white-tie roast between journalists and presidential administrations.” The dinner was held at the Renaissance Washington Hotel.
But all was not champagne and caviar — as of this writing, 73 of the glitterati who attended the bash have tested positive for the dread disease, COVID-19.
It’s not like the beautiful people were being careless. Fearful of catching the ‘rona, they canceled the dinner altogether for the past two years. And though they courageously held the event this year, “All guests at the Gridiron Club dinner were required to show proof of vaccination,” avers Gridiron President Tom DeFrank. (If you want to know how incestuously social the establishment politicians and prestige media who attend this sort of event are, check out DeFrank’s bio.)
But in spite of everyone’s innoculation state of grace, the newest variant in town — BA.2 — crashed the party. The New York Post reports that “At least three cabinet secretaries, several members of Congress, multiple White House officials and a large number of journalists are among the dozens to test positive.”
Chortling with mirth at the spectacle of the most pious COVIDidians inadvertently passing around the latest infection, I checked various news sources to find out who, exactly, had been stricken. Here are the names I was able to tease out of the reportage:

How many are sick?
I mean, really sick?
The article says they're stricken. Stricken I tell you! LOL.
Has even one of the attendees been hospitalized?
No? Then who cares if they caught COVID or the common cold?
Somethings up...
Yep.
Proof that we all need the vaxx and boosters.
But but but it’s COVID! feel the panic! (Snifflecron is causing mass delirium it seems - the left breathlessly cite numbers of “sick” without telling how many die fro. Snifflecron. Be afraid. Be very afraid! Someone might get the chills.
All of America MUST be vaxx’d and boosted to protect our Congressional betters.
It won’t work for me if you don’t have it!
Mostly boosters. That’s what will take you out down the road.
I mean ... have all they been psychological impaired since 2020 to the point of no return?!?!
Or ... are they hiding something, and this is their only "play"??
:: WE THE TAXPAYER SUBSIDIZED THE PARTY BECAUSE ::
The 1st Amendment >>requires<< us to pay for it.
It is Constitutionally protected, don’t ya know.
Wait until you find out that Big Tech & Social Media are hiding behind the 1st Amendment in collusion with the Legacy Media.
Working together, they can bring any government leader or, simply, any government to fruition from behind the 1stA.
They can choose the President, they can transition to Socialism/Communism and the people (users, as it were) have absolutely no say.
.... Proof we need [mail-in ballots for Nov 2022].
And all 630 tested positive for mental illness!
Ultimately, it is proof that we NEED a benevolent tyrant from the D-party rule over us.
The workers (people) are the means of production.
Soylent Green is people.
Time to end all “nonprofit“ status. People who want to donate to an actual charitable organization that helps people in need will still donate. Being able to text deduct lavish party attendance will no longer be tax-deductible.
We need to get serious about this strain. You know what happens when brucellosis hits a cattle herd. Yup, they all have to be euthanized. That would be a terrible blow for the country’s journalistic class, I know, but sometimes you have to be ruthless.
How do we know for sure that they have COVID? Have they all released certified test results?
This is just the table setting for fear porn before the mid-terms to get mail-in cheating.
