MSNBC ’ s “ Morning Joe ” co-host Mika Brzezinski had an emotional meltdown on Twitter today after President Donald Trump recently accused her husband and co-host , Joe Scarborough , of murder involving his former 27-year-old intern who died in Scarborough ’ s congressional office in 2001 .
Authorities have long-said they did not expect foul play in the intern ’ s death and ruled it as accidental ; however , President Trump has repeatedly tweeted that a “ Cold Case ” should be opened , and has posed the question , “ Did he get away with murder @ @ @ @ @ @ @ think Mika would welcome a thorough re-investigation into the matter so her husband can get his name cleared in the forum of public opinion .
Instead , Brzezinski took to Twitter today and announced she would be “ speaking to the manager ” about Trump—and , as a result , she ’ s been blasted for her behavior by multiple Twitter users .
Brzezinski tweeted : “ I will be reaching out to head of twitter about their policies being violated every day by President Tump .
Hope my call is taken .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ users immediately began to respond to Brzezinski , dubbing her as a “ Karen.
” ( For those who may not be aware , the term “ Karen ” is used to describe bossy , nosy liberal women who try and get others in trouble or silence people . )
One user responded , “ In the fight against Karens , Mika is the final form boss of them all.
” Another Twitter user blasted , “ Mika Brezinski said she is going to call Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey and try to get @ @ @ @ @ @ @ thing I have heard all day .
I guess poor little Mika can only dish it out , but can ’ t take it .
What a pathetic human being she is.
” Twitter user Susan St. James posted , “ Mika Brezinski just said she is going to call Jack Dorsey and try to get Trump ’ s Twitter account banned .
Big mistake if Twitter does that .
We will all leave and go where Trump goes .
Twitter will collapse .
Also , why is Mika squealing like a stuck @ @ @ @ @ @ @ been a more Karen move on this website ?
” “ She literally wants to speak to the manager lol.
” “ going to be hilarious if twitter keeps trump ’ s account open and bans some random user called ‘ president tump ’ ” “ Mika Brezinski is nothing more than the Morning Bozo ’ s clueless sidekick .
Like Megan McCain if they didn ’ t have political fathers , both would be working for TMZ chasing the Kartrashian Tribe around LA ” “ Mika Brezinski and the fake liberal media @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Trump can go over their heads and reach the American people with the truth on Twitter instead of nothing but hate and lies coming from MSNBC and CNN .
They want him off of Twitter so you don ’ t hear the truth !
” Mika Brzezinski is a typical leftist , trying to silence free speech from anyone who says anything that they disagree with .
What happened to the “ love and light ” philosophy these types once espoused ?

Authorities have long-said they did not expect foul play in the intern’s death and ruled it as accidental; however, President Trump has repeatedly tweeted that a “Cold Case” should be opened, and has posed the question, “Did he get away with murder?”

thepoliticalinsider--2020-05-21--Mitt Romney: Mail Voting ‘Works Very, Very Well’ In Utah

Mitt Romney has defended voting by mail , saying that in Utah , the system “ works very , very well , ” defending recent criticisms of it by the President .
Trump : “ Sorry , You Must Not Cheat In Elections ” President Donald Trump has recently slammed vote-by-mail initiatives , noting that it leads to large amounts of voter fraud , writing a number of tweets criticizing Nevada and Michigan specifically for their recent actions of pushing it .
“ State of Nevada ‘ thinks ’ that they can send out illegal vote by mail ballots , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the State and the U.S , ” the President tweeted .
“ They can ’ t !
If they do , ‘ I think ’ I can hold up funds to the State .
Sorry , but you must not cheat in elections.
” “ Michigan sends absentee ballot applications to 7.7 million people ahead of Primaries and the General Election , ” the President said in a second tweet .
“ This was done illegally and without authorization by a rogue Secretary of State .
I will ask to hold up funding @ @ @ @ @ @ @ down this Voter Fraud path.
” Why Does Romney Want This System ?
Speaking to reporters on Capitol Hill , Mitt Romney responded to the President ’ s recent comments , and defended voting by mail .
“ In my state , I ’ ll bet 90 % of us vote by mail .
It works very very well and it ’ s a very Republican state , ” he said in comments reported by ABC .
Why is Romney backing a system that is one of the most susceptible systems to voter @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , I know the problems with it .
Pretty much all British electoral fraud comes from our postal votes system .
Not only does it potentially give access to your vote to others in your household , which removes the anonymity of the secret ballot and can lead to pressuring to vote a certain way , but anyone working in the postal system also has access to your ballot when it ’ s on the way to be counted .
Personally , I can ’ t see any reason why Romney wants vote @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to help Joe Biden get into office .
He voted to remove President Trump in his impeachment trial , but that failed , so this is therefore the next best thing !

Alec Baldwin Launches Vile Attack On Americans Who’ve ‘Spent Decades Telling The World How Great We Are’

Hollywood actor and outspoken liberal Alec Baldwin had yet another meltdown , and this time it was triggered by Americans who dare to take pride in the country they call home .
In Baldwin ’ s latest Twitter meltdown on Thursday morning , he slammed Americans who say that the United States is “ great.
” Baldwin also blamed President Donald Trump for deaths caused by coronavirus , a disease that originated in China and is affecting virtually every country in the world .
“ Americans have spent decades telling the world how great we [ are ] , ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ don ’ t shut up about it .
And yet we have more deaths from this crisis than anywhere .
We have had [ one ] of the worst responses in the world .
Trump didn ’ t cause the virus , but he spread it .
Trump is a maniac.
” Baldwin has never let things like facts get in the way of him bashing Trump and those who support him .
This month alone , he has claimed that Trump has a “ degenerative mental illness that is costing 1000s of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s supporters “ mentally ill ” people who he blames for the “ near moral collapse ” of the U.S .
The Hollywood star isn ’ t above pushing conspiracies if it means he can make Trump look bad .
Last year , he outrageously claimed that Trump is hellbent on destroying America , which makes no sense given the president ’ s mantra is literally “ Make America Great Again.
” “ Trump ’ s been in office for a while now .
Incompetent is one thing .
Nuts is another .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ Baldwin said .
“ But he hasn ’ t killed America yet .
We ’ re like a rhino .
A big , leathery rhino .
He can ’ t kill us .
And he knows that and he ’ s scared.
” All Baldwin is accomplishing with these rants at this point is showing the world how ignorant he really is .
As President Trump would say : SAD !

thepoliticalinsider--2020-05-21--Jimmy Kimmel Issues Pathetic Response After WH Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany Rips Him To Shreds

Late-night television host and shameless liberal Jimmy Kimmel offered a pathetic response on Wednesday after he received what he described as a “ scolding ” from White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany for a “ joke ” he had made about President Donald Trump taking hydroxychloroquine as a preventative measure against COVID-19 .
“ Apparently that message resonated , because I got a scolding from White House press secretary number four , Kayleigh Mc-a-looney , ” Kimmel said on his show .
“ She ’ s definitely still getting her hair colored , right ?
Anyway , thank you for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ always nice to welcome a new fan.
” The joke in question involved Kimmel saying that Trump was “ trying to kill himself ” by taking the drug , despite the fact that it has been widely prescribed to combat the coronavirus .
This came hours after McEnany named Kimmel as one of many members of the media who she attacked for their “ apoplectic ” hydroxychloroquine coverage , with others being MSNBC ‘ s Joe Scarborough and CNN ‘ s Chris Cuomo , according to Fox News .
During her press briefing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ should not be taken without a prescription , which the president has .
“ No one should be taking this without a prescription from their doctor , ” McEnany said early in the day .
“ But that being said , I ’ ve seen a lot of apoplectic coverage of hydroxychloroquine .
You had Jimmy Kimmel saying the president ’ s ‘ trying to kill himself ’ by taking it , you had Joe Scarborough saying ‘ this will kill you.
’ You had Neil Cavuto saying , ‘ What have you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you have to lose are lives.
’ ” Kimmel was recently forced to apologize after he showed a misleading video of Vice President Mike Pence carrying an empty box of personal protective equipment ( PPE ) to a hospital .
Unsurprisingly , the shameless liberal used his apology to further attack President Trump .
“ It would appear that @ vp was joking about carrying empty boxes for a staged publicity stunt , ” Kimmel tweeted .
“ The full video reveals that he was carrying full boxes for a staged publicity stunt @ @ @ @ @ @ @ dearly this administration values truth.
” McEnany has not been press secretary for very long , but she is already showing members of the leftist media like Kimmel that she is not someone to be messed with .
We can ’ t wait to see her stick it to plenty more liberals in the future !

Congressmen Rand Paul, Andy Biggs: If We Keep Listening to Fauci, There Won’t Be an America to Reopen

Congressmen Rand Paul and Andy Biggs published an op-ed in which they call out Dr. Anthony Fauci , warning that if the White House coronavirus task force member has his way , there won ’ t be an America to reopen .
The column , appearing in USA Today , slams Fauci as out of touch , unaware or unwilling to see how Americans are suffering due to the economic shutdown .
“ Fauci persists in advocating policies that have emasculated the medical care system and ruined the economy , ” they said , citing models that have proven wrong @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wants America closed until there ’ s nothing to reopen , ” they write .

We can listen to your advice , but there are people on the other side saying there ’ s not going to be a surge.
” What About Those Suffering Financially @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to address comments made by Fauci before Congress that serve little more than to scare the American people and their local leaders into overreacting .
“ There is a real risk that you will trigger an outbreak that you might not be able to control … not only leading to some suffering and death that could be avoided , but could even set you back on the road to trying to get economic recovery , ” Fauci claimed .
States such as Georgia and Florida have proven him wrong thus far .
“ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ suffering and death produced by Fauci ’ s one-size-fits-all approach to public health ?
” Biggs and Paul ask .
The congressmen concluded , “ We must forge ahead even as Fauci tries to brush away the optimism of the president and the American people.

“Anthony Fauci wants America closed until there’s nothing to reopen,” they write.
.@realDonaldTrump has expressed a desire to restore our economic greatness and the positives that come w/ it — including better public health — by opening up our communities.

Paul V. Fauci
Paul has been absolutely eviscerating Fauci at every turn. Though, as he and Biggs note, they respect his “service to our country and medical opinion.”
Earlier this week, the Kentucky Republican shared a link to a chart showing the coronavirus death rate is similar to the seasonal flu for people under 60.
He added the caption, “Paging Dr. Fauci.”
During questioning and testimony before the Senate last week, Paul referred to blanket lockdowns implemented by many states through advice doled out by Fauci as “kind of ridiculous.”
“I don’t think you’re the end-all,” said Paul. “I don’t think you’re the one person that gets to make the decision. We can listen to your advice, but there are people on the other side saying there’s not going to be a surge.”
“I give advice according to the best scientific evidence”: Dr. Anthony Fauci and Sen.

What About Those Suffering Financially?
The USA Today op-ed goes on to address comments made by Fauci before Congress that serve little more than to scare the American people and their local leaders into overreacting.
“There is a real risk that you will trigger an outbreak that you might not be able to control … not only leading to some suffering and death that could be avoided, but could even set you back on the road to trying to get economic recovery,” Fauci claimed.
States such as Georgia and Florida have proven him wrong thus far.
“What about the countless stories of needless suffering and death produced by Fauci’s one-size-fits-all approach to public health?” Biggs and Paul ask.
The congressmen concluded, “We must forge ahead even as Fauci tries to brush away the optimism of the president and the American people.”
It’s time this charade ends – with or without the blessing of Dr. Fauci.

WH Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany Breaks Down As She Discusses Ravi Zacharias’ Death And His Impacts On Her Faith

White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany became emotional as she talked about the death of the legendary Christian apologist Ravi Zacharias , who passed away on Tuesday morning after a battle with a rare form of cancer .
While talking to the Christian Broadcast Network , McEnany explained how Zacharias ’ reasoned defense of Christianity helped her get through her time at Oxford University , a school known for having an abundance of distinguished atheist scholars .
“ It ’ s a huge loss .
You know , my dad said to me that Billy Graham was the great evangelist @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the great apologist , ” McEnany said as she began to tear up .
“ To have someone from an academic place , as an apologist , could equip you with those arguments where you didn ’ t have to check your brain at the door when you became a Christian where there is the intellectual foundation for everything we believe .
There ’ s prophecy .
There ’ s the human cell .

“The reason why I’m being so unequivocal is that there just simply has never been a time when she’s expressed an interest in running for office,” Jarrett told The Hill. “She’s not demurring here. She’s not being hard to get.”
“She doesn’t want the job,” Jarrett said.


thepoliticalinsider--2020-05-21--Liberal Columbia Law School Hated Kavanaugh When He Was Accused Of Sexual Misdeeds, But Loves Biden

Higher education in this country has been radicalized since the American suicide attempt of the 1960s .
Now , those hideous Bolshevik urchins who were thankfully given a what for on the streets of Chicago in 1968 infest colleges and universities in this country .
One of the worst outbreaks of these ideological bedbugs is at Columbia Law School in New York City .
The school is predictably progressive on all issues and thus went after Brett Kavanaugh during his confirmation hearings .
But now , when the rape sneaker is on the other foot , the law school thinks @ @ @ @ @ @ @ though Biden is accused of a much worse crime than Kavanaugh ever was by any of his detractors .
Columbia Law School went so far in 2018 as to establishing a new , mandatory sexual misconduct education initiative .
Then scores of faculty members signed an unintentionally hilarious petition in The New York Times stating the nominee ’ s “ temperament ” alone was disqualifying .
Radicalized boneheaded students , of course , staged round-the-clock protests .
But you should have some pity .
Because to get into this school one has to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ simpleton .
Not well-educated or articulate at the best of times , controversy brings out the saddest aspects of the NYC/DC/L.A .
bubble they live in .
This self-imposed intellectual ghetto renders them as worldly and sophisticated as a resident of backwoods Appalachia circa 1740 .
Though , those backwoodsmen had a lot more courage and common sense than most grads of Columbia Law .
So , naturally , they invited Joe Biden to be the commencement speaker at their upcoming graduation .
Do they have any concern with the rape charges hanging @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Columbia Law School ’ s Dean Gillian Lester praised Biden for setting an “ example ” as a “ leader , lawyer , and public servant.
” But she wasn ’ t the only one .
Let ’ s look at the poor slow-witted souls at Columbia Law who have no idea , bless their hearts , that their pathetic hypocrisy is as blatant as it is .
Prof. Bernard E. Harcourt , dealt with the Kavanaugh hearings “ with great distress ” due to “ the unprecedented and unfathomable demeanor of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ comment .
Jeffrey Gordon , a capital markets and corporate governance professor , said , “ My opposition to Judge Kavanaugh ’ s confirmation was not based on the allegations by Dr. Ford , per se , but rather on : ( 1 ) the lack of judicial temperament appropriate for a Supreme Court Justice as revealed by ( i ) his arrogant , self-pitying , partisan , and disrespectful testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee and ( ii ) his history as a partisan warrior [ sic ] in the Special Counsel @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Bush White House , and ( 2 ) my belief that his ideological commitments were outside the judicial mainstream.
” So Gordon loathes Kavanaugh on other grounds and is clearly mentally disturbed , given his description of the Kavanaugh hearings .
But , about Tara Reade ?
“ I disbelieve the Tara Reade allegations in light of extensive reporting by Vox , Politico , PBS and others.
” Gee , it ’ s good he has such a wide array of news sources .
He also “ tended to believe Ford ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Mitts said his problem with Kavanaugh was “ based on the fact that his behavior at the confirmation hearings , especially his entirely inappropriate politicization of the hearings and his baseless claims about their origins in the Clinton camp , showed crude political partisanship and a complete lack of judicial temperament.
” Notice the theme here ?
Oh sure , we believed Ford .
But it had nothing to do with what we thought of Kavanaugh .
We hated him for the usual far left loony baseless reasons .
“ I don ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that way , ” Mitts went to say on charges that Biden is a partisan as well .
He then quoted from the letter he signed , along with nearly 2,000 other law professors and 44 Columbia Law School faculty members , citing Kavanaugh ’ s “ aggressive , ” “ discourteous , ” and “ partisan ” demeanor .
Well , it ’ s good that Joshua thinks for himself .
But strangely enough , Mitts did admit something interesting to the press , “ To the extent that certain ideas are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ problem in the academy — and I ’ m not the first person to say this , I mean , this is something university presidents have spoken to .
It is critically important that we debate and discuss all ideas.
” Perhaps , given Mitts ’ admission , there is some hope for him yet .
As for the rest of the hopeless minions of Columbia Law ?
Too far gone to be of any real use or value to society .
Thus , make them law school professors .

The school is predictably progressive on all issues and thus went after Brett Kavanaugh during his confirmation hearings. But now, when the rape sneaker is on the other foot, the law school thinks Joe Biden can do no wrong even though Biden is accused of a much worse crime than Kavanaugh ever was by any of his detractors.

Prof. Bernard E. Harcourt, dealt with the Kavanaugh hearings “with great distress” due to “the unprecedented and unfathomable demeanor of Judge Kavanaugh.” On Biden? No comment.
Jeffrey Gordon, a capital markets and corporate governance professor, said, “My opposition to Judge Kavanaugh’s confirmation was not based on the allegations by Dr. Ford, per se, but rather on: (1) the lack of judicial temperament appropriate for a Supreme Court Justice as revealed by (i) his arrogant, self-pitying, partisan, and disrespectful testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee and (ii) his history as a partisan warrior [sic] in the Special Counsel investigation of President Clinton and in the Bush White House, and (2) my belief that his ideological commitments were outside the judicial mainstream.”

But, about Tara Reade? “I disbelieve the Tara Reade allegations in light of extensive reporting by Vox, Politico, PBS and others.” Gee, it’s good he has such a wide array of news sources. He also “tended to believe Ford’s allegations.”
Columbia Law Associate Prof Joshua Mitts said his problem with Kavanaugh was “based on the fact that his behavior at the confirmation hearings, especially his entirely inappropriate politicization of the hearings and his baseless claims about their origins in the Clinton camp, showed crude political partisanship and a complete lack of judicial temperament.”
Notice the theme here? Oh sure, we believed Ford. But it had nothing to do with what we thought of Kavanaugh. We hated him for the usual far left loony baseless reasons.
“I don’t see evidence of Joe Biden acting that way,” Mitts went to say on charges that Biden is a partisan as well. He then quoted from the letter he signed, along with nearly 2,000 other law professors and 44 Columbia Law School faculty members, citing Kavanaugh’s “aggressive,” “discourteous,” and “partisan” demeanor. Well, it’s good that Joshua thinks for himself.
But strangely enough, Mitts did admit something interesting to the press, “To the extent that certain ideas are somehow off-limits, we have a major problem in the academy — and I’m not the first person to say this, I mean, this is something university presidents have spoken to. It is critically important that we debate and discuss all ideas.”
Perhaps, given Mitts’ admission, there is some hope for him yet. As for the rest of the hopeless minions of Columbia Law? Too far gone to be of any real use or value to society. Thus, make them law school professors.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-05-21--Home Depot Co-Founder Torches The Media For Unnecessarily Scaring Americans On Coronavirus

Bernie Marcus , a billionaire who co-founded Home Depot , just spoke out to blast the media for unnecessarily scaring Americans about the COVID-19 pandemic .
During an interview with Fox News host Laura Ingraham on Monday night , Marcus blamed the media for causing panic and division amidst coronavirus .
“ [ The media have done a ] wonderful job in frightening America , ” he said , adding that the U.S. would have been better off if we ’ d focused on taking care of the at-risk elderly , rather than on shutting everything down .
“ My @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” said Marcus , 91 .
“ If we take care of my age bracket , that is 70 or above , I think that we can end a lot of the problems out there .
People that are 70 or above have to be so careful because you are compromised in so many different ways .
But we ’ re only a small portion of the population , and we ’ re closing down everybody in addition to the schools kids.
” He went on to applaud states like Florida and Georgia @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hopes off jumpstarting the economy .
“ What [ those states ] did is a perfect example of thinking and understanding that people need to get out of the house , needed to start their businesses again , needed to go to work again , ” he explained .
“ But there are bureaucrats all over the country in the blue states that are still closed , and God knows when they ’ ll open.
” “ Those people [ in some blue states ] , they are still struggling and it is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ” Marcus concluded .
Marcus hits the nail on the head here .
Ever since the virus began , the mainstream media has been gleefully trying to use it to both take down President Donald Trump and to obtain more ratings for themselves .
The media has proven once and for all throughout this crisis that they can not be trusted , and that they care more about filling their own pockets than they ever did about America as a whole .

“Those people [in some blue states], they are still struggling and it is a desperate time for many of them,” Marcus concluded.

thepoliticalinsider--2020-05-22--Fauci The Flipper: Staying On Lockdown For Too Long Would Cause ‘Irreparable Damage’

Dr. Anthony Fauci , the advisor who helped direct the government ’ s coronavirus lockdown , said that keeping lockdown for too long would cause “ irreparable damage.
” Fauci : “ We Can ’ t Stay Locked Down For Such A Considerable Period Of Time ” In an interview on CNBC , Dr Fauci , the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases , said that “ depending upon the dynamics of the infection of a particular state , ” the country should “ in a cautious way , ” start re-opening .
“ We can @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a considerable period of time that you might do irreparable damage and have unintended consequences , including consequences for health , ” Fauci continued .
Fauci said that he is “ enthusiastic about reopening ” the country , and that he thinks that “ we can do it in pace that would be reasonable and would get us back as a society from a morale standpoint as well as the economy.
” “ I don ’ t want people to think that any of us feel that staying locked down for prolonged period @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ” Fauci added .
“ We had to do that when we had the explosion of cases , but now is the time depending upon where you are and what your situation is , to look at reopening the economy , reopening the country to try to get back to some degree of normal , ” he continued , saying that he is totally in favour “ of that if it ’ s done in the proper way in the appropriate setting.
” RELATED : Rand Paul Calls Out Dr. Fauci , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ To Flu For People Under 60 Yet merely last week , Fauci told members of Congress that if the country started re-opening now “ too early , ” then the consequences would be more “ suffering and death , ” and states that were “ on the road to try to get back to an economic recovery ” would be shunted off of it .
“ It would almost turn the clock back rather than going forward .
That is my major concern , ” he told the Senate Committee on Health , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ sounds very convenient in my eyes that as soon as we ’ ve seen states re-open without the dangerous consequences that Fauci has previously been preaching , that he suddenly flips around and talks about the dangers of maintaining the lockdown !
This flip-flopping completely contradicts his previous rhetoric – if he had taken a more moderate stance from the beginning , he wouldn ’ t be facing this criticism now .

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the advisor who helped direct the government’s coronavirus lockdown, said that keeping lockdown for too long would cause “irreparable damage.”
Fauci: “We Can’t Stay Locked Down For Such A Considerable Period Of Time”
In an interview on CNBC, Dr Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said that “depending upon the dynamics of the infection of a particular state,” the country should “in a cautious way,” start re-opening.
“We can’t stay locked down for such a considerable period of time that you might do irreparable damage and have unintended consequences, including consequences for health,” Fauci continued.
Fauci said that he is “enthusiastic about reopening” the country, and that he thinks that “we can do it in pace that would be reasonable and would get us back as a society from a morale standpoint as well as the economy.”
“I don’t want people to think that any of us feel that staying locked down for prolonged period of time is the way to go,” Fauci added. “We had to do that when we had the explosion of cases, but now is the time depending upon where you are and what your situation is, to look at reopening the economy, reopening the country to try to get back to some degree of normal,” he continued, saying that he is totally in favour “of that if it’s done in the proper way in the appropriate setting.”

Flip-Flopping From The Doctor!
Yet merely last week, Fauci told members of Congress that if the country started re-opening now “too early,” then the consequences would be more “suffering and death,” and states that were “on the road to try to get back to an economic recovery” would be shunted off of it.
“It would almost turn the clock back rather than going forward. That is my major concern,” he told the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions.
It sounds very convenient in my eyes that as soon as we’ve seen states re-open without the dangerous consequences that Fauci has previously been preaching, that he suddenly flips around and talks about the dangers of maintaining the lockdown! This flip-flopping completely contradicts his previous rhetoric – if he had taken a more moderate stance from the beginning, he wouldn’t be facing this criticism now.
