Glenn Youngkin Mad That People Care That His Son Tried Voting Illegally
The week that Republican Glenn Youngkin won the Virginia gubernatorial race, a story emerged about his son allegedly trying to vote two different times even though he is only 17 years old. Now we are hearing Youngkin’s reaction to this and he has adopted the strategy of acting upset that the media would make an issue out of this event. The governor-elect said, “it was silliness. There’s real confusion on where a 17 year old can vote or not. And so he had a friend who suggested that he might be able to vote. He went up and asked . . . and he presented his ID and when they said he couldn’t vote, he said ‘okay’ and he went to school.” But this explanation doesn’t account for how Youngkin’s son tried to vote twice. Even if he was confused on the first attempt about whether he was old enough to vote, the poll workers would have clarified it at the first location and so there wouldn’t be a need for a second attempt. This is a highly hypocritical reaction for Youngkin, who comes from a party who supposedly cares deeply about voter fraud but not when it’s meant to help them and not when they’re the ones facing backlash over it.
Alex Jones Begging for Money to Pay for Lawsuit He Lost
Conspiracy theorist and Infowars host Alex Jones is now begging for money from his audience to pay for damages in the court case he lost against the family members of Sandy Hook victims. Jones released a video telling his audience, “even though I’ve already been found guilty by default, now they’re going to try to tell the jury how guilty I am.” He then called upon rich folks in his audience to step up and donate: “Wealthy people out there, your free speech is being destroyed. Infowars is just the first domino to fall. And if wealthy folks don’t start spending their money promoting liberty, promoting freedom, we’re going to lose this country and we’re going to lose this world to tyranny.” While this campaign looks desperate and it’s hard to believe anyone would give money to Alex Jones over such an issue, he’s already raised over $130,000 with the goal for the campaign being $2 million. This is certainly a low point for Alex Jones, who years after getting “canceled,” now finds himself having to pay for the consequences of his actions and desperately in need of money to pay for his legal expenses.

Q-Anon Shaman" Sentenced to 41 Months for Trump Riots
The Trump rioter known in the media as the QAnon Shaman has been sentenced to 41 months in federal prison. His name is Jacob Chansley and on January 6th, he famously stormed the Senate chamber wearing face paint and a hat with fur and horns. Chansley pleaded guilty back in September to one count of obstruction for his part in blocking the counting of electoral votes by Congress. Prosecutors asked for 51 months and he got instead a 41 month sentence plus three years of probation. The QAnon Shaman has been remorseful and has blamed Donald Trump for inspiring him and his fellow rioters. He said after the sentencing, “I was wrong for entering the Capitol. I have no excuse. The behavior is indefensible.” The judge in the case, Royce Lamberth, said about the incident, "what you did here was horrific, as you can now see” but also said that Chansley appears "genuine in [his] remorse." This is the longest sentence handed down so far from the Capitol riots and probably one meant to serve as a lesson given the great deal of attention Chansley got on that day.
From yesterday’s show:
Lunatic "Doctor" Says Child Vaccination is "Late Term Abortion"
Osteopathic doctor Sherri Tenpenny is back in the news for claiming that COVID vaccines are a form of “late term abortions.” Tenpenny previously made claims about the vaccines supposedly making people magnetic and inferred that it had something to do with giving people a 5G connection. She recently spoke at a "Reawaken America” conference presented by American Faith, which folks like Michael Flynn and Mike Lindell also appeared at. Tenpenny couldn’t help but speak on the matter of getting kids vaccinated from COVID, now that the Pfizer vaccine has an emergency use authorization for 5 to 11 year olds. She made the claim that this is the equivalent of extremely late term abortions because it’s a way for the government to try to kill five year olds. Tenpenny told the crowd, “I had a really good friend who said we sacrificed over 60 million unborn babies in abortion. We have multiple states in this country who actually allow late term abortion. Now we are doing very, very, very, very late term abortion by killing five year olds.” Obviously, this osteopathic doctor should not be taken seriously, especially on the topic of vaccines. But sadly, there are anti-vaxxers all across the country who view her as the ultimate authority on COVID, treatments, and immunizations and reject the broader medical and scientific consensus.
