Since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic, the political supremacists in seats of power cavalierly issued their edicts and their mandates, while the mainstream media cheered them on. Across America, the Big Media and their Big Tech and Big Biz allies have served as the official “hit men” for the Big Covid cabal.
