Maybe the' Trump is killing people with his false narratives on the coronavirus
while those in the WH test every person every day there ' thing is waking people up. Why drown it out when Trump is drowning in crap of his own making? Who knows. The announcement may have been specifically made by Barr to create a partsan scandal that would take over the news. People are just more interested in their lives and the lives of those they love than in a reality tv president breaking authoritarian.

And now they will be the only task force. This reminds me of Katrina responce and how the Bush WH said people were going to be held responsible for staying in NOLA and thought the country would be with them in blaming the victims. It was long term GOP policy to make americans more cold hearted. Then when Americans blew up with anger when so many poor NOLA residents were suffering, Bush WH blamed young adults manning the phones at the WH. So it really wasn't them . But they lost that one.
Here they go again with trying to teach cold heartedness (well the sick should have worked harder and had better insurance or eaten better food or had the money to be able to skip the long term care nursing home). But it will be China's fault when the numbers of dead blast through the roof. And Kushner will play dumb on his task force. Like Betsy Devos does all the time. Like Bush did. That is why the Birx-Fauci task for is gone: they won't play dumb.
