Top political officials in the Trump White House tried to block public health guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and to eliminate evidence of political interference into scientists' reports on the coronavirus, according to newly released documents from congressional investigators.

The latest documents from a House committee investigating the former administration's response to the pandemic shed additional light on the efforts of some of former President Trump's political appointees to blunt or even block the messages of career officials because they did not align with Trump's rosy projections.

During a press briefing on Feb. 25, 2020, former senior CDC official Nancy Messonnier warned about the coming dangers of COVID-19. She told reporters that the spread of the coronavirus was essentially inevitable.

"It’s not so much a question of if this will happen anymore but rather more a question of exactly when," she said.

Her statement angered Trump, and the administration subsequently stopped granting CDC officials permission to brief the public. The agency held no briefings from early March until June, during some of the earliest and most confusing times of the pandemic...

Yay! More government spending. Nobody has to pay for that, right?!? Inflation is running out of control. There are shortages of things all over the place. We are rapdily becoming a Third World nation. Not good.

I will say that at least DJT didn't poop himself at the Vatican and was able to answer questions without a teleprompter or earbud feeding him his lines.

do a little research about the ultimate cause of the shortages (and by extension, the inflation), and get back to me

if you’d prefer trump’s foreign policy approach to Biden’s, than even worse off than you’ve indicated. the man can barely form a coherent sentence. not to mention using religion and the “good book” for a stated photo-op, on the route to which he perpetuated the assault on perfectly peaceful, law-abiding protesters

now go climb back under your rock for a few more months

psych’s boy…such a good, honest christian

uncle joe is sitting in the big chair. The buck stops with him.

Doing great.

We have a different opinion of what a third world country is. Unless of course you are just parroting talking points that you haven't actually thought about.

this great country is so great it is idiotproof. Not even dt and jb can bring it down.

i would actually agree with you if we weren’t talking about supply shortages and inflation, both of which are global problems due directly to covid
