How many rape victims is sanctuary city MD up too now? At least 10 girls raped by illegal aliens In Montgomery county. The sheriff is a disgrace. You mention 4 people in MI get sick. Haven’t heard a peep from CNN about THE rape victims. you don’t give two shi*s about those women

Them scientists dropping them 🦟 off in Michigan

In Africa trillion

Reason why I spray myself with repellent before staying outdoors for long periods of time

When they gonna ban horses!?

Last year there were only six cases total of this virus. very scary that now there are eleven deaths and counting.

Same number as deaths as due to vaping but 1/1000th of coverage hmm

It's just too warm humid and wet. The mosquitoes love that.

I always get bit by mosquitoes when I’m out for 2 seconds. This is even with bug spray applied. What the heck

I’m surprised not more folks in Nebraska have made the list, well with all our flooding since March. It’s like a freakin mosquito nursery down here 🤷🏿‍♂️

Ban mosquitoes

Add them to Hillary Clinton’s body count

Bioengineered

Nature is doing its best to thin us out.

They need to be banned. They’ve already eclipsed the death toll from vaping. BAN THEM!

Ok, now do GavinNewsom homeless camps!

Vaping is the problem

Ban all mosquitoes. Maga

Michigan's spraying toxins from planes, destroying all beneficial insects, fish & aquatic species. They're not thinking. Toxins are collapsing bee hives, seriously damaged pollination, which affects crops, vegetables & fruit, lead to extinctions & collapse of ecosystems, food web

Millions have yet died from gunshot wounds from overseas soldiers. What’s more ethical? Spending billions chasing mosquitoes to save 4 lives or saving billion$ by bringing all USA military home to prevent thousands of deaths?

Could you imagine the outrage if our president was black? We would have a Czar...

Here it is. Beginning of the end, fellas... ✌😬

BioEngineered

Please keep it there don't send it to Africa. Make sure you spray your flights before you come this side. We have enough issues to deal with.

This is worse than the vape pen epidemic.

RashidaTlaib only poc?

Wow ¿Esto es verdad?
