There are a lot of reasons to be freaked out over Covid right now… but @PeterHotez says that new Omicron variant isn’t one of the top ones.
More concerning, he says, is “a horrific delta wave, this winter wave that's starting to sweep into the upper Midwest.”

Birtherism questions are now being asked about VP Kamala Harris.
"Only people of color even have that question posed to them," says @Yamiche. "At least some of our lawmakers are born in Canada, other places. We don’t have that sort of conversation about whether they're eligible."
