A new report by the Associated Press concerning a plan by the US Department of Agriculture to drop millions of food pellets treated containing a rabies vaccine from helicopters over a wide swath of the Eastern United States’ woodlands was extremely unlikely to fit in the already overtaxed bandwidth of the right wing conspiracy community’s collective imagination.
The vaccines, bearing vaguely ominous names such as “Onrab” and “Raboral V-RG,” have already been seeded in areas of Maine and Pennsylvania known to have high raccoon populations, a fact likely to go almost completely unnoticed by your typical Infowars reader when they’re already freaking the fuck out over the Biden Administration’s supposed manipulation of gas prices, guilty pleas in the theft of Ashley Biden’s diary, the FBI supposedly ordering Mark Zuckerberg to throttle the Hunter laptop story, the failure to find voter fraud in the Kansas abortion referendum, the IRS buying up bullets, not to mention the real life problems for the GOP. All that of course on top of the nightmare at Mar-a-Lago. So something that would probably be a five alarm fire on a regular right wing news day is just going to fly under the HAARP weather radar.
