 Gridiron president say 53 people contracted COVID-19 after dinner
by Lexi Lonas - 04/08/22 5:58 PM ET

Gridiron President Tom DeFrank said on Friday that 53 individuals who attended the annual Gridiron Club dinner last Saturday told the organization they tested positive for COVID-19.

The announcement comes a week after several high profile figures who attended the dinner said they tested positive for the virus.

Among those who tested positive include Harris’ Communications Director Jamal Simmons, Attorney General Merrick Garland, Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo, and Reps. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) and Joaquin Castro (D-Texas).

Other staffers and journalists who attended the dinner have also tested positive for the coronavirus.

“All guests at the Gridiron Club dinner were required to show proof of vaccination. We understand that some of our guests have reported positive tests since the dinner. We wish them a speedy recovery,” DeFrank previously told The Hill in a statement.

The dinner was also attended by other high-profile political figures such as Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack, special presidential envoy John Kerry, Dr. Anthony Fauci, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Rochelle Walensky, White House press secretary Jen Psaki and Federal Reserve Chairman Jay Powell.

How many hospitalized?  How many on ventilators?  How many died?

What do they expect?  The jabs protect the virus from attack, essentially turning their bodies into infection storage houses.  They carry viral loads around inside of them for weeks, and then wonder how the virus they already have could have finally gotten past their little spike coats.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

Apparently, no Republicans attended, for which I'm sure they're grateful.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Well, this explains the sudden surge in COVID cases. The Democrats had a superspreader event.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
