Biden admin uses Covid funds for CRACK PIPES

The Biden administration is rolling out a $30 million program to distribute "smoking kits" (crack pipes and other paraphernalia) to drug addicts in the interest of harm reduction. LGBTQ and African-American addicts will be prioritized. It will be paid for in part with surplus funds that had been earmarked for pandemic relief. RT America's Natasha Sweatte reports.

Canadian PM Justin Trudeau accused the Freedom Convoy of trying to "blockade our democracy" and Ottawa has stepped up efforts to quell the protest.
