4:49Now PlayingEmerald Robinson, a White House correspondent for Newsmax, made the outrageous claim this week that the COVID vaccines contain a bio-luminescent tracking chemical that is somehow linked to Satan. The alleged chemical, luciferase, was used in the development of the vaccines, but it is neither an actual ingredient in the vaccines nor is it somehow linked to Satan (other than sharing the Latin word "lucifer" that just means "light.") Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains the absolutely stupidity of this claim.

Every now and then, some of these right-wing news outlets have a host or a correspondent that goes off the rails so badly that the network itself has to come out and say, listen, we don't agree with anything this person said. Well, that situation unfolded early this week when Newsmax White House correspondent, Emerald Robinson, tweeted out this little gem. Dear Christians, the vaccines contain a bioluminescent marker called luciferase so that you can be tracked. Read the last book of the new testament to see how this ends. Luciferase, which is in fact, a bioluminescent marker was used in the development of the vaccines, but it is not an ingredient in any of the COVID-19 vaccines. And more importantly, the Latin root Lucifer that begins that word only refers to light as that's what it meant in old Latin. It has nothing to do with Satan. Has nothing to do with the Bible. Just has to do with the fact that it is a bioluminescent.
So they named it Lucifer, which again, Latin root meaning light. So Newsmax forced to come out and say, listen, we have, we've always here at Newsmax touted the efficacy and safety of these vaccines. We do not agree with these statements. The vaccines are safe, which is again ironic because, you know, still pushing a little bit of disinformation through their network. Much like Fox news is. Not necessarily so much lying about it, but attempting to cast doubt and of course, to prop up anybody who opposes vaccine mandates. So while the executives at Newsmax say one thing like no, the vaccines are safe and effective and everybody should get vaccinated. The on air talent isn't exactly falling in line with that. But here's the thing. Emerald Robinson, the woman who tweeted out this idiotic link between the vaccines and a bioluminescent tracker linked to the devil. She is the White House correspondent for Newsmax.
She's on the ground at the White House. She gets to go to the press briefings. Can we please kick this woman out of there? Like, that's ridiculous. This is a crazy conspiracy theory from somebody who clearly has no idea what they're talking about and they shouldn't be allowed to go inside the White House. What's also funny is that Twitter did, by the way, remove the tweet. But before they did, you could see that it was sent on Twitter for iPhone, as are most of her tweets. I actually went through most of her Twitter feed, most of them say sent on Twitter before iPhone. So this woman is worried about a vaccine having a tracker in it as she's walking around, tweeting from her iPhone all day. That's what these idiots don't understand. Like, oh, I'm worried the government's tracking me. If you have a cell phone, they can track you. If you've got a smartwatch, they can track you. If you have a car that has any kind of, you know, these electrical components that come in these newer cars and the computer systems with the navigation and the satellite radio, they can track you.
Stop freaking out about it. Yes, there's plenty of privacy issues and if you want to talk about that, we can have great discussions all day long about the invasion of our privacy. But if you're still freaking out that I don't want anybody tracking me, then you better ditch the cell phone. You better ditch the wifi and the laptop.
