Florida’s Latinx community is been barraged with conspiracy theories either openly attacking Biden or heavily supporting Trump, especially the QAnon nonsense (or, QAnonsense, as some have called it).

An Iowa child has died of complications relating to COVID. The child died in June, but the child’s death was not made known until this weekend.
