“Hey, Jimmy, tell him what he’s won…!”
“It’s a Brand New $5 Million Fine…!”

"That’s right, Jacob Wohl! You and a guest will be invited to face felony charges levied by the Michigan Attorney General as well as pay fines up to or in total $5 Million Dollars!
That makes this “The Politics Are Wrong” showcase worth a staggering ($5,000,000.00)… "

I thought they were facing charges in Ohio too but from what I’ve been able to find it looks like the Ohio AG has just fed into the FCC investigation. However, Letitia James in NY was also considering filing charges against them; I suspect NY may wait to see what Michigan does and then decide whether it’s worth the time and effort.
Lake Ozark Mo. mayor wants the world to know that he intends to visit his covid afflicted friend in the hospital. As a “hail merry” he would like to slip his friend some “ivermectin”. The facebook misinformation disclaimer appears in his post.
“In a since-deleted Facebook post, Mayor Dennis Newberry told the public his friend, a restaurant owner in Cuba, Missouri, had been hospitalized with COVID. The mayor said he’d acquired ivermectin and was going to the hospital in an attempt to persuade doctors and nurses to let him use the drug on his friend.
Newberry did not say how he obtained the drug, nor did he specify if he had acquired the animal or human form of ivermectin.
The restaurant owner’s son commented on Mayor Newberry’s post, saying his father was not in need of ivermectin “or any other animal related drug” and asked the mayor to remove the post due to the stress it was causing the family.”
My favorite quote was,
Burkman’s attorney called Nessel’s charges a “political stunt” last year.
And the robocalls were what, exactly?
Political stunts? That’s all they do!
There’s just so much Wohl and Burkman nonsense that it’s hard to find an incident that doesn’t make them look like corrupt idiots, but my favorite one was back in 2018 when they were pushing their fake “Robert Mueller sex scandal” narrative and they held the world’s stupidest press conference at a Holiday Inn. It does not go well. Some highlights:
Their star witness doesn’t show up. At all. We are told that she definitely exists but she is “on a photo shoot in Switzerland”, which is “girlfriend in Canada” level of plausibility. Also, this is apparently the third time Burkman has had a key witness not turn up to a press conference.
Wohl spends most of the press conference complaining how mean the internet has been to him. He singles out the fact that someone has photoshopped his face onto corn. This is true - someone did this.
Burkman claimed that Wohl’s evidence should be taken seriously because Wohl was “a child prodigy who has eclipsed Mozart.” Which is true if you count “youngest person banned from futures trading” as an accomplishment.
The document setting out the claims reads like terrible fan fiction, misspells the alleged victim’s name, and still fails to account for the fact that at the time Mueller was allegedly assaulting her in New York he was on jury duty in D.C.
The document also claims that Wohl’s company Surefire (which he had previously claimed to have no knowledge of) was in operation several months before it was actually registered as a company.
Wohl claimed that a bus outside was proof of a “bussed-in mob”. The bus was a Tripper bus, a shuttle bus between D.C. and NYC, standing at its regular bus stop. The bus subsequently departed on schedule. Also, there was no mob.
Jack Burkman, an occasional contributor to far-right, Trump-supporting “news” website Gateway Pundit, found himself being intensively grilled by…Gateway Pundit. After the press conference, Gateway Pundit announced that they would no longer be accepting contributions from Burkman.
Burkman’s fly was open for the entire press conference.
They were also behind a stupid attempt to claim Elizabeth Warren was having a torrid affair with a 24-year-old Marine. And also attempted to gin up a similar scandal against Pete Buttigieg.
They are the Johnny Knoxville of political stuntmen.
At least they got a hotel rather than, say
Turns out this story originated on a satire website.
Continuing the ivermectin theme:
Jesus wept, people.
John Pierce, who represented Kyle Rittenhouse before being fired, has been hired to represent multiple 1/6 insurrectionists. At a court hearing today, he didn’t show, and his co-counsel said it’s because Pierce is in a hospital on a ventilator.
Natural selection at work.
‘I won’t put an untested vaccine into my body!’
‘Horse de-wormer? WHERE’S MY SPOON!’
On the plus side, at least none of them will have Horse Worms.
I took a look at the Ivermectin Paste Horse Dewormer in our barn. Each tube contains 6,080 mg of Ivermectin which treats 1250 pounds of horse. If I were to try to dose me, I could probably get pretty close to the suggested dose of 150 micrograms (mcg) per kilogram (kg) (68 mcg per pound) of body weight as a single dose (for river blindness).
But I don’t have river blindness and if I did, how could I do the math!?
Again cometh that well-worn trope that blind people can’t do math 
Considering how many human parasites are begging to take the stuff, I question the efficacy of ivermectin use on animals as well
When Ivermectin is used for its intended purpose it kills not only parasites in the gut but also blood-borne parasites. As a consequence if there is a heavy infestation, caution has to be exercised lest thrombosis is triggered in something important.
If you have to use caution dosing a horse, imagine what a doctor keeps track of when dosing a human – yes, it is used in humans, too.
One might forget that blind people have fingers. But that’s what they’re counting on.
I’m not visually impaired, but I would have one helluva time converting micrograms per kilogram to grams per pound to unit volume per person without writing everything down, making sure I end up with usable units, etc.
Additionally, some dogs (Collies notoriously) with a mutation in the MDR-1 gene lack a protein that allows certain drugs such as Ivermectin to be flushed from the brain. Is there a similar gene mutation in people?
Sturgis Rally. Seven day Covid average rate increases 3400 per cent.
This exponential growth in cases is likely attributable to the 81st Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, which drew an estimated half a million visitors to Meade County and its environs from Aug. 6 through 15, potentially acting as a superspreader event.
Who woulda thunk of it??
Oh, yeah. Everyone who has a working brain.
