Nobody worked harder to demonize and destroy President Trump than the liberal media, but now that he’s gone they really miss him. Sure, kissing Joe Biden’s ass is fun and all but liberals are filled with rage and need an outlet. With no Trump, this liberal media outrage is now going after Grocery shoppers in Florida because…well it has to go somewhere.
Sheppard Smith left Fox News because he didn’t feel comfortable reporting unbiased facts. Luckily he quickly found a job at CNBC, where partisan opinion passes for hard news. Here’s what he’s been up to lately:
WATCH: This shocking video from @SamBrockNBC shows a market in Naples, FL where many customers and employees are not wearing face masks.
Florida does not have a mask mandate, but the CDC has said that wearing masks can help control the Covid pandemic. https://t.co/WFatRrjnYa pic.twitter.com/IMQJz4p0Ox

Shocking video? It’s people shopping for groceries and not living in fear. If this video is shocking to you, you must be either be stupid or fragile or a member of the liberal media propaganda network.
Speaking of which, NBC News correspondent Peter Alexander was shocked by the video and wanted White House press secretary Jen Psaki to know how offended he really is about people shopping for groceries.
Since Psaki won’t take real questions and NBC has no intention of asking real questions, this is what journalism in the Illegitimate Age of Biden looks like:
“There’s an NBC News video that went viral of a grocery store in Naples, Florida…When you pan the grocery store, you see almost everybody in there is not wearing a mask, even though it’s in a county, I believe, where masks are mandated. The question is, beyond urging Americans to wear masks, what specifically is this White House doing to combat that resistance especially given concerns about the coronavirus mutations and others right now?” Alexander asked.
He should go back and watch the video, because it mentions specifically that masks are not mandated in Florida, but hey, fake news gonna fake.
Psaki gave a rambling non-answer about how both she and Joe Biden occasionally wear masks, but that wasn’t good enough for Alexander so he once again expressed his outrage for grocery shoppers:
“What do you say to the folks like those we saw in this video? I believe one of the folks who owns or runs that store who said he doesn’t believe 450,000 Americans have died of coronavirus. At the end of the day, we need everybody on board to beat this virus. What do you tell them?” Alexander asked.
Again, he really should watch the video he’s so pissed off about. The store manager said he didn’t believe 400,000 Americans have died of COVID-19.
In any case, Psaki still chose not to answer the question directly:
“We try to fight the misinformation with facts, Peter, and fight it with health and medical experts, including at a national level, at a local level, to convey to people that wearing a mask is something that not only can save the lives of their neighbors, but of their family members,” Psaki said.
Here’s some facts that dispute Psaki’s mask misinformation:
New York has a mask mandate, while Florida does not. Both states have very similar populations.
New York has recorded 43,687 COVID-19 deaths.
Florida has recorded 27,018 COVID-19 deaths.
New York’s COIVID-19 death rate is 226 per 100,000 people.
Florida’s COIVID-19 death rate is 125 per 100,00 people.
New York had 12,743 nursing home deaths.
Florida had 7,938 nursing home deaths.
If masks did anything to protect people as Jen Psaki said, these numbers would look much different. Florida would have way more cases and deaths than New York, but they don’t because masks don’t do shit to stop the spread of COVID-19 or keep people from dying from it.
The liberal media has vented some of that pent-up Trump outrage on the grocery shoppers of Florida, but what will they do tomorrow? Without the Trump scapegoat, they’ll have to dig deep to find an avenue of release.
