Again,careful weasel wording that got vaguer and vaguer as more and more Rebel commenters pointed out the utter absurdity of the claim (primarily because it all happened before COVID actually reached North America). <br />I could go on, of course, as could any skeptical Rebel reader. But trying to prove that Ezra is a dishonest shill without a shred of integrity in his body is about as challenging as finding evidence that water is wet. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6708375.post-12256001459101631762021-03-24T05:38:10.120-04:002021-03-24T05:38:10.120-04:00It's amazing how much Rebel News news is about...It's amazing how much Rebel News news is about Rebel News.
