Fauci says he wears a mask to be a symbol of what 'you should be doing'

Fauci says he wears a mask to be a symbol of what 'you should be doing'
Dr. Anthony Fauci on Wednesday called for a cautious approach to reopening the US and implored Americans to wear face masks in public, comments that are at odds with President Donald Trump's push to have America quickly return to normalcy.

Subject: Scarborough

My guess is that Trump wants to unravel all the conspiracy theories surrounding the death of Scarborough's aide, right down to the coroner, Dr. Michael Berkland who had a questionable resume and in 2012 police said he kept a storage unit which was filled with containers of crudely preserved human organs. Trump's base will think Scarborough is a Zombie!!!

Just my two cents!
Stay safe, too!!!
Lynn


Hi Lynn, You may be right. What is so sad is Trump is pulling a Seth Rich on Scarborough, causing misery to the surviving family.

As my longtime viewers know, I am no fan of Scarborough. He hit me with a cease and desist order in 2005 which he never followed up. He's no murderer, he's a slimy whiney opportunist.



I know Joe Scarborough. Joe is a friend of mine. I don't know T.J. Klausutis. Joe can weather vile, baseless accusations but T.J.? His heart is breaking. Enough already. - Mitt Romney







42 Percent of Americans Approve of Trump's Job Performance. 42 Percent.
President Trump's job approval sank toward a two-year low on Wednesday, according to poll from the right-leaning polling firm Rasmussen.

The poll released Wednesday shows 42 percent of likely U.S. voters approve of Trump's job performance, while 57 percent disapprove.

Twitter ‘Deeply Sorry’ About Trump Tweets Suggesting Joe Scarborough Murdered Intern — But Won’t Delete Them


Twitter ‘Deeply Sorry’ About Trump Tweets Suggesting Joe Scarborough Murdered Intern — But Won’t Delete Them
President Trump repeatedly used his Twitter account this past week to float the conspiracy theory that Scarborough murdered Lori Klausutis when he was a congressman, prompting her widower to speak out and plead that the platform take down the tweets.
In response, a Twitter spokesperson told Mediaite, “We are deeply sorry about the pain these statements, and the attention they are drawing, are causing the family.”


There is no evidence that Republican Joe Scarborough murdered his aide (not an intern). He did get preferential treatment by the police and the media at the same time Democrat Gary Condit got the opposite treatment when his intern went missing. That's the story.

How fast would a Twitter account be taken down if someone falsely accused Jack Dorsey of Murder? - Edan Clay tweet
