Trump to HHS Sec Azar: get rid of that Bright motherfucker in your department.
Another arrow in the quiver that the Dems should launch when the election campaign goes into full swing - which will probably be when the 2nd wave of COVID-19 illness and death is in full swing.
If Biden wins, this whole disaster will be blamed on him. Especially if when we get a second Great Depression.
Risk of death doesn’t slow the fever of cult members.
The fact and existence of death when COVID-19 kills some of them and their family members certainly will bring the cult member’s fevers to a dead stop - all the way down to room (or morgue cooler) temperature.
Yeah, but the people blaming him will have no power, no credibility, and in a just world, will be going to prison.
We, unfortunately, do not live in that world.
Bright says he wants an investigation by the Inspector general
What Inspector General? Hasn’t the Screaming Cheeto fired them all?
I read about this immediately after watching that interview with the mayor of Las Vegas about her city being a “control case.” I immediately went out and bought a bottle of whiskey.
Unfortunately the republican yahoos in congress and the states will do everything they can to push the lie that Frump was in no way to blame for any of this shitstorm.
Fighting Bright people at HHS is small potatoes for someone who openly attacks Intelligence at DOD.
I hope trump’s taking Hydroxychloroquine, lots and lots of Hydroxychloroquine. What’s there to lose.
No different than when Obama took power right as Bush’s enormous fiscal crash crippled the country.
yeah that’ll fix it
It’s hard to imagine a less fit president to guide the country through this moment. Anf the timing of that impeachment merely served to embolden the fucker. If we couldn’t stop him from playing games with Ukraine aid, just watch what he does with Covid stimulus money!
So many people will die needlessly because Trump stands in the way. It was bad enough when he was just an embarassment. But this is so much worse than that.
Being correct when the orange clown is wrong is hazardous to your career. Biden is certainly no prize but he is infinitely better than a second term when Trump can unleash really unpopular and harmful policies with no concern about being reelected.
Hydroxychloroquine doesn’t seem to be a silver bullet for Covid19, but antiviral drugs seem to be.
Trump’s ego is more important than your life. Or your family’s lives. Or the lives of your coworkers and fellow citizens and pretty much everyone else on earth.
We joke about “monster egos.” In this case, the man with the ego is an actual murderous monster.
