"...including attempts to alter or block data reports from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention detailing the dire effects of the virus"


wow. that's just evil.





"A new document released Tuesday details the pressure that career officials faced from a Trump administration political appointee to change portions of the CDC's crucial Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR), which laid out Covid deaths, hospitalizations and infections during the pandemic."
 
"The new document also corroborates testimony given last year from a career CDC official who said she was ordered to destroy evidence of the request, according to the committee.

The House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Crisis is now requesting interviews with nearly a dozen former Trump political appointees and current officials, sending letters Tuesday to the individuals and the CDC and US Department of Health and Human Services."

What is really scary is there is disinformation from foreign sources disparaging the vaccine. as a result we may spiral into another variant virus the vaccine cannot conquer.

That's evil? To the rational perhaps.

To Trump psychophants it is hardly worse then Trump telling America the virus was no big deal while simultaneously telling Woodward how deadly this same visus was.

His supporters do not care. All they care about is that someone who thinks just like they do is in power.

Yeah, they don't care.


He's their George Wallace.
 
Wouldn't have been any deaths if we just hadn't done all that testing, right?
 
This is what happens when the civilian oversight to prevent corruption is corrupt.
 
No third-rate Hollywood writer could ever come up with a more cartoonish, pure, two-dimensional evil character than Trump and his administration. It’s so ridiculous it wouldn’t be believable for a children’s movie.

Except it was real. And grown ups fell for it. Sad.

Remember when he appointed that new guy and stopped the states from reporting hospitalizations to the CDC? I figured something like this was going on. Desperate measures to hide his failures. If he'd been reelected, Lord only knows where things would be right now.

Grown ass men fell for it.

And a bunch of them are from North Carolina and South Carolina and Georgia and Kentucky and Tennessee and Florida and Alabama and Mississippi and Louisiana.

It's disgusting that adults are so in love with that guy that they don't even care that he mishandled and purposely misrepresented a pandemic that killed their brothers and sisters.
 
How will these right wing anti americans be disciplined? Banned from capitol hill and news sources and from anything medical would be openers. Then prosecute = no sweeping under the rug.
 
I thought this was old news.

It happened when the Trump administration insisted that state covid tracking numbers be sent to the WH instead of the CDC.

Even then it was obvious that Trump was willing to play politics with the science.
