Don't you fucking take him, COVID. Don't you fucking dare.

Don't worry he has politician healthcare not plebeian deathcare like us peons

It at least pleases me to know this level of care is something he wishes to extend to all Americans. Many in Congress with this care would deny it to the rest of us as if it were some sort of favor.

Oh it is a favor except to the insurance and healthcare industry

I'm sure he had his updated COVID shot, so hopefully his symptoms are mild. Fingers crossed.

If there's one person whose head should be put into a jar Futurama-style, it would be him.

I know he's up there in years but Bernie's no idiot so I'm sure he's caught up on vaccinations. Hopefully that means he'll do fine.

More importantly though, more politicians need to take up the progressive mantle.
