Biden to help distribute COVID-19 vaccine in Florida despite opposition [View all]

Thank you President Biden!
(Up yours, DeSatan!)


(Local10News) Gov. Ron DeSantis said he doesn’t need President Joe Biden to set up any COVID-19 vaccine distribution centers in Florida. He said all the state needs is more vaccines.
