  1. So we're going to be running around clucking like chickens and gathering tissue again. Fantastic. 😅

  2. Non è una strategia per diffondere panico nella popolazione, ma è una realtà. La Sacra Scrittura parla con chiarezza della presenza di pestilenze di varia origine negli ultimi giorni di questo mondo; Io vi consiglio vivamente di pregare con perseveranza, preparandovi alla vicina fine di ogni cosa.

  3. Seems like fish and wildlife, park ranger's/maintenance are not doing their real jobs when it comes to dead wildlife. My first time in Sacramento i was taken to the nearby park. The water was nasty, slimy and dead birds and rats in and around the water. 3 years later when I went back, and it was the same way.

  4. Like during the PLANdemic is his family owned winery going to stay open for business! Come on 🐑 wake up

  5. $3T for experimental pharma products to use in case of emengency? Don't shoot the messengerRNA.

  6. The guy asking the girl questions. Bro your not even sounding like you are asking the questions. He obviously is reading this. It almost sounds fake

  7. Yikes. Those of us in communities work Latinos who have chickens are gonna be f'd. SMH

  8. They ignored the Avian Newcastle Disease that killed birds in southern California 2017….it was not a contained quarantine situation…..not a theory, this is facts

  9. The medical establishment lost all trust and credibility with covid. I watched the congressional hearings with fauci. Lied about masks. Lied about 6 ft distancing. Lied about point of origin. We found out what gain of function meant with Wuhan lab. Who paid for it. Stop deceiving the public.
    No one believes you anymore.
