In more news about the legacy media becoming obsessed about the wrong things, the Washington Post now has picked up the public inquiry about which members of Congress have been vaccinated with the COVID vaccine or received boosters.
How many people in Congress do you think actually took the Covid shot?

It’s a good question, and one many Americans would like to know. However, the Washington Post, or any legacy media outlet for that matter, won’t be the one accurately covering it. As in all things involving the corporate media, they’re looking less for the truth and more for Republican scalps.
As I stated earlier on Saturday, the stench of the COVID-19 pandemic, the CDC, and Congress’ complicity in pushing the jab have not left the American consciousness. Some are even appalled that on Friday, President Donald Trump received a COVID booster at his routine visit to Walter Reed Medical Hospital, despite evidence that the so-called vaccine does little to mitigate contracting COVID or preventing its spread.

What has spearheaded this sudden interest by WaPo? It’s a good a distraction as any from the Schumer shutdown. In terms of messaging, Republicans and Trump appear to be winning. Especially after Saturday’s announcement by Secretary of War Pete Hegseth that the administration would be covering the paychecks for America’s military, despite the government being shut down.

Those Mexican sombrero memes certainly haven’t hurt, either.
So, legacy media is looking for a Republican scandal, and for some reason, they chose to approach Republican Alabama Sen. Katie Britt as a convenient target. Maybe it was her 2023 health scare where she suffered numbness in the face, which was reported to be a result of a viral infection. Whatever the reason, Britt’s office was approached by a WaPo cub reporter to find out whether she will be taking the COVID vaccine.

The larger question: where was legacy media’s curiosity about this four year ago? In 2021, when then-President Joe Biden issued his vaccine mandates for federal workers, the Senate, House of Representatives, and their staffers were exempted. Yet, the media never bothered to delve deeper into why Congress was not included in this mandate, nor did they cover the stories of the millions of people who lost their livelihoods because they refused to submit to the mandate.
President Joe Biden’s new vaccine mandates for federal employees don’t apply to members of Congress or those who work for Congress or the federal court system.
Biden issued two executive orders on Thursday requiring vaccination against COVID for federal workers and contractors who work for the federal government. He also asked the Department of Labor to issue an emergency order requiring businesses with more than 100 employees to ensure their workers are vaccinated or tested on a weekly basis.
However, Biden’s order on federal workers applies to employees of the executive branch. The House of Representatives and the Senate belong to the separate legislative branch, and the courts to the judicial branch of the federal government.
We have a 24-7 news cycle with a wealth of information on things that could and should be covered. Why does there seem to be a problem with them covering all of the above and? With most outlets losing readers by the droves and independent journalists and new media actually covering stories of interest, one wonders why legacy media continues to adhere to the model of chasing slanted stories while ignoring actual news that would expose agendas while serving the public.
Editor’s Note: The Schumer Shutdown is here. Rather than put the American people first, Chuck Schumer and the radical Democrats forced a government shutdown for healthcare for illegals. They own this.
