This comes on the heels of the first major mainstream media report on the increase in heart attacks among young people “since covid.” What’s astounding is the article doesn’t even MENTION the possible impact of the covid vaccine! And we’re the ones peddling misinformation?
The media has now begun to cover the massive increase in heart attacks in young people. This was unacceptable to mention just a few months ago. Yet, amazingly, this article blames covid infections and doesn’t even mention the covid shot as a potential cause at all. pic.twitter.com/bqMECZQJRU

This show and conservative media in general has been way ahead of the curve on covid, the Hunter Biden laptop and other topics, which the Democrats and media have been lying to you about. We’ve been proven right time and time again.
On Friday’s show, Clay invited the researchers at Brookings to come on this show and tell us what they heard here that was wrong and why. But we’re not holding our breath for them to show up.
