Health Secretary Matt Hancock told the BBC the variant found in South Africa was especially concerning. “I’m incredibly worried about the South African variant, and that’s why we took the action that we did to restrict all flights from South Africa,” he told the BBC’s “Today” program. “This is a very, very significant problem ... and it’s even more of a problem than the U.K. new variant.” Both countries are struggling...

What was odder were both the absurdities of the complaints against American civilization, and the unwillingness or inability of Americans to rebut them and...

It's already been a day loaded with bombshells... and all of this was revealed before noon. Today is bombshell day for Trump supporters as multiple stories have emerged just two days before Congress is set to meet in a joint session to determine the next President of the United States.
