“I knew I was being watched. Everybody inside was waiting for me to make a misstep so that they could, I guess, remove me from the task force,” says Dr. Deborah Birx, the White House coronavirus response coordinator under fmr. Pres. Trump, on the pressures she faced. #CNNSOTU

1. That's a lousy excuse! Thousands died and you're worried about being removed?

You’re a physician for god’s sake!

[malaise]

2. So staying on the Task Force was more important

than exposing the killer in chief?
Fuck off scarf lady. you enabled those deaths.

[Scrivener7]

3. Lol! Waiting for her to make a misstep? That's some well developed delusion there.

Her whole tenure was a whole lot worse than a misstep. More like a massacre.

[agingdem]

8. poor Debs..

all that bending over and for what..a Trump pat on the ass?.....Scarf Lady aided and abetted a mass murderer and now she's selling herself as a victim??...Birx wants absolution...she ain't gonna get it!!!

[snowybirdie]

4. Finding it

very hard that a professional woman with her education and credentials found it hard to speak up against intimidation during the most serious healthcare problem we've seen in a Century. All while she was supposed to be in charge of protecting the citizens of the United States. BS!

[soothsayer]

5. "I needed to stay on the task force so I could do nothing useful"

[Ferrets are Cool]

6. Go to HELL

[KentuckyWoman]

7. Dear Dr. Brix for Brains. SHUT ... UP.

Stop making excuses for enabling the clusterfuck that was a so called response to Covid. You cared more about your job than your fellow Americans.

you know that
we know that

[alphafemale]

9. She just sat there when the manic mango suggested people inject disinfectant

She can waddle all down the rest of her life.

[Treefrog]

10. I know everyone loves Fauci now, but he was right there with her.

I remember the early days. Woodward covers it well in his book. I won’t watch any of those liars try to slither out of their guilt.

[Raine]

20. Agree, plus he lied about the masks. nt

[uponit7771]

28. +1, the mask thing was a REALLY big mistake and he should own up to it

[Treefrog]

30. I agree. I lost a lot of respect for him.

Obviously he’s good in the political arena, but I’m not sure that’s really a compliment.

[uponit7771]

32. +1, he could easily blame Trump for not knowing scope seeing he was lying to

.. everyone

[Treefrog]

34. Yeppur.

Clever fella,

[Polly Hennessey]

11. Disappear Brix.

You were an ambitious fraud then and you are still a fraud. Amazing you have doctor attached to your name.

[MFM008]

12. Great excuse

No one including Fauci came out and said this is madness..
People are going to die unnecessarily.
Because they were afraid of the fat sweaty golfer.

[RobinA]

31. Funny How Some People

just seem to think they need their jobs. It's easy to opine that someone else should be willing to risk their job. It's a little harder to actually risk the job.

[-misanthroptimist]

13. I'm sure that the loved ones of the 100k's that died unnecessarily...

...are comforted by the fact that you kept your job, Dr. Birx.

[Blue Owl]

14. Yawn

[Mz Pip]

15. Her misstep

Her misstep was trying to please the former guy.

[C_U_L8R]

16. Oh poor you

Clearly, quitting never crossed your opportunistic mind.

[JohnSJ]

17. A lot of folks want to find scapegoats among Birx and others to blame for the unnecessary deaths

but the reality is after several months into the pandemic it was no secret how deadly this virus was, and is, and much of those deaths are due to people not taking proper precautions, because social distancing and wearing a mask was a “infringement” on their freedoms

After the first 100 thousand deaths, there was no mystery about this

[flying_wahini]

18. The same could be said for Fauci

I kept waiting for him to speak out about the LIES.

[Raine]

21. Exactly nt

[Shermann]

23. False equivalence

Both Birx and Fauci were set up for failure and defying your superiors is easier said than done. Fauci managed to thread the needle and warn Americans with the strongest messaging available to him at the time. Anybody with half a brain knew what was going on last year, so that messaging got out there. Birx's messaging was more muddled, with a late attempt to clean it up.

[Raine]

19. If she didn't have the guts to stand up to him

she should've resigned.

[Dem4Life1102]

22. She is the American version of

Albert Speer.

[appalachiablue]

29. +1 shudder

[spanone]

24. You should have removed yourself

[Autumn]

25. You should have been removed the first time you backed his bullshit.

A real human would have booted you out on your ass.

[greenjar_01]

26. A real profile in courage, this Birx

Ooof. Just say what you need to say. If they fire you, they fire you. Are we supposed to feel any sympathy for this rich shithead who was too scared to tell the American people the truth about the virus because Trump would be mad and fire her? FUCK OFF, Birx. The cowardice is unbelievable.

[llmart]

27. Hey, scarf lady...

Your rewriting of history isn't going to work, so save yourself some time and energy and use it to pick out the next scarf you're going to wear.

Most of us will never forget your head nodding while Your Master spoke gibberish and nonsense about how to deal with a pandemic.

I believe I posted something very early on in the pandemic when people were talking about how "smart" she was that she lost all credibility with me when she stood behind him and nodded her head to indicate she agreed with the orange jerk.

& the details & the data. I think his ability to analyze & integrate data that comes out of his long history in business has really been a real benefit”
