WH cannot control the narrative about the virus...

Even though Trump is trying to control what is said about the virus from the federal government, he cannot control it. Every state has their own agencies that will report updates to the media.

From what I read the stock market bounced back in the last 15 minutes of the session because the Fed let it be known they’d be open to reducing interest rates. People will see the twits priorities. Once American citizen start dying and cases pop up all over the US they will realize he has no plan of action other than trying to blame it on someone else.

gagged. The local reporters will surely report it while giving kudos to their respective state health department (and local health department) response. Nor will the nation's best academic epidemiologists and infectious disease specialists hide what is going on in terms of abuse toward CDC and NIH at the EXPENSE of the nation's public health.

The message will get through.

5. Look what Pence's office did to Tony Fauci.

He was scheduled to hit all five of the Sunday shows. He has been ordered to "stand down." Now that the empty suit is in charge, all information will be coming directly from his office. So instead of hearing accurate information from one of the most respected people at NIH, NIAID, a medical doctor and researcher, we're going to have our information filtered through a man that caused the highest spike of AIDS cases ever in IN because he didn't listen to the experts.

I am sick to fucking death of these political snizzwads thinking they know more than the medical establishment or the experts. Pence needs to stay out of the way and go back to what he does best - being on his knees at crotch level in front of trumpie.
