Limbaugh etc: CDC head is deep state

Rush Limbaugh and right-wing fringe sites are attacking Dr. Nancy Messonnier, a top CDC official handling the coronavirus response, because she is Rod Rosenstein's sister. They're spreading the lie that she's part of the deep state and trying to tank the markets to weaken Trump.





I did not not not see these cretins undermining CDC’s integrity, but that is because I’m not too bright

This just incinerates what’s left of my brain

Well, I'd be happy to see Rush go and stay on board the cruise ship, or come to San Antonio and stay amongst the infected being cared for here. I mean, if it's just like the common cold, what does he have to fear, right?

I won’t link to any of the usual sites that push the anti-“globalist,” paranoid far-right bullshit, but they believe organizations like the WHO are actively allowing the pandemic to spread, etc., etc.— a total disinformation crapfest, all designed to absolve His Majesty Trump of any responsibility... for anything.

It's obvious something's showing this could be a huge issue when it comes to Trump's re-election chances. That's why people like Limbaugh are trying to get people to believe all of this about the coronavirus is a hoax and nothing more than the common cold. They're trying to downplay the issue as much as they possibly can.

When I heard he was sick, I thought “I didn’t know cancer could get cancer.”

Hey, I don’t pretend to be nice, especially to hateful people like Rush.
