There’s not much more infuriating than anti-science Americans demonizing Fauci/The CDC/The WHO. It’s about as willfully ignorant as you can get…
Just one more step to Pol Pots killing fields.
Pretty soon all intelectual ‘libruls’ are going to be rounded up.
The dumbest thing about this is that Trump was jn office when we needed these organizations the most. Oversaw a global health crisis while in office, and then basically ignored it and focused on getting re-elected.
What is odd about it? He has done similar.

It’s thus true that the Trump administration axed the executive branch team responsible for coordinating a response to a pandemic and did not replace it, eliminating Ziemer’s position and reassigning others, although Bolton was the executive at the top of the National Security Council chain of command at the time.
I remember hearing it on the news at the time.
I am not finding it, but the USA hada vaccine mass production facility on standby for years that Trump scuttled.
I didn’t say it was odd, I said it was dumb. He has a shining example from his first time in office of why we need this stuff, and he is ignoring it. He is a grade A moron if he thinks these things are unnecessary.
