what can I say but this - you guys cared less about your constituents while feeding them and continuously feeding them lies about the vaccine that should have saved their lives and kept them from pre-existing conditions. You lied about mask use. You lied about animal dewormer, you lied about everything, and is still lying.

Now children are getting COVID and you still ban masks. You guys caused this peak, you guys caused the deaths, sickness, suffering.

And I have come to the conclusion - you guys just don't give a damn.

The National Guard does all kinds of things all the time that we never hear about. Now some of the troops are active guard but still.
