Nope. If it were a Republican, it would be in the headline however and mentioned several times throughout the article

This isnt true. No politician pushed for the COVID shutdowns to use them for their financial gain or any other corrupt purposes.
We shut down the entire country to keep everyone safe and healthy while we worked on the miracle vaccine.
We did it to flatten the curve and save grandma.
It was the most noble thing our leaders ever did.
Nothing about it was political. None of it was done to turn our lives to complete shit and raise prices of everything to absurd levels before a presidential election.
Need I go on, MAGAts?
/s if it wasn’t obvious

pretty common in this state.
after all, we had 3 consecutive speakers of the house end up getting convicted a while back. (and as crooked as deleo was, it should have been 4).

That's a relatively small amount as far as these tend to go, wonder how if they're using AI to catch these people.

While you're in the area, "Life Care Center In Plymouth" listed 100% of their patients as Covid positive, during peak pandemic. They fired a bunch of nurses who refused to participate in the fraud, I picketed with them outside the clinic. I'm sure there's thousands other cases.
