Just go find something new!

 

In 5 months should she, hopefully, 'find something new'

 

The first lady apparently breathes out Carbon Monoxide?

Holy hell.

 

We are so totally screwed. We're a nation of over-entitled, whiny nitwits.

 

Huntington Beach is trash.

 

first we hear that the white hose was trying to coerce hospitals into allowing the national guard to 'collect & manage data', from the hospitals about Covid stats. Just trust them to do a job they don't train for....LOL

now, we hear this:

"The Trump administration is changing how hospitals are required to send COVID-19 case data to the government, bypassing the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in favor of the Department of Health and Human Services, according to a report in The New York Times.

Beginning Wednesday, the numbers of available beds in intensive care units, patients on ventilators, stockpiles of personal protective equipment and many other data points will be collected daily by a department more closely aligned with the White House.

The change was detailed in a document posted this week on the HHS website, which claims that it helps streamline the reporting process, unburdening hospitals from having to report data to multiple government agencies.

But it also reinforces fears that President Donald Trump is actively trying to undermine scientists at a critical juncture in the health crisis ― when coronavirus cases are skyrocketing across many states. On Monday, Trump began publicly attacking Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation’s leading expert in infectious disease, while the White House was accused of launching a whisper campaign against him.

Four former directors of the CDC expressed similar concerns in a Washington Post opinion piece published Tuesday, arguing that experts at the CDC were being undermined by politicians in a way that may prove devastating to public health.

The change in reporting standards came out of a “tense” conference call between hospital administrators and Dr. Deborah Birx, a member of the White House coronavirus task force, who then convened a separate group to find a solution.

Two unnamed officials told the Times, however, that the change that group came up with has shocked and dismayed the CDC."

it's Orwellian the shit trump is doing. Is there any doubt at all that they will corrupt the data, destroy and hide numbers bad for trump, and lie about it, over and over and over?

 

What's the difference?

 

Ivanka has the brains of a rock.

 

The White House can fuck off.

 

Well shit, this is pretty obvious.

 

That's it? That's her words of wisdom?

 

you think it will go away if we just taste it?

 

but...

Merica!!!

boldest ANd britest!!!

 

During his Rose Garden (no, not Blazers arena) campaign rally yesterday, Trump repeated his demand that public schools open without CDC guidelines. The diktat only applies to public schools, not the tony private schools where he and Betsy DeVos send their kids. When a reporter asked about parents who are afraid school won't be safe for their children, Trump said that someone else should make the decision since that is a terrible decision.

Now that's a great campaign slogan. Only I can decide for your children.

If a Democrat running for dog catcher said parents make terrible decisions for their children it would be screaming all over right wing media.
