Please, NO MORE Dr. Birx! Please!
Like her coronavirus task force colleague Dr. Anthony Fauci, Dr. Deborah Birx wants to continue fighting the pandemic after President-elect Joe Biden is sworn into office in January. But unlike Fauci, Birx has not yet been offered a spot in the next administration, and it’s unclear that she ever will be.

Republicans have never cared about states' rights for elections. In 2000 Jeb Bush stepped over his own Florida Supreme Court and went straight to the US Supreme Court to stop the vote counting.

It was a power grab then and it is a power grab now.

That's why I started AllHatNoCattle on December 14, 2000, because I wanted every vote to be counted.

And here we are back at square one almost 20 years later.

The only questions now are how many more times President Donald Trump wants to lose the election to President-elect Joe Biden and whether his Republican acolytes on Capitol Hill will wake up and recognize reality.

The House Did Their Work. Do Yours, Senate.
The House passed the National Defense Authorization Act with a veto-proof margin on Tuesday, dealing a blow to President Trump's threat to veto the legislation. The House passed the annual defense package, which lays out the annual budget and expenditures for the Pentagon, with a 335-78 vote, with one member abstaining — easily over the two-thirds majority that would be necessary to override a presidential veto. The bill now heads to the Senate.

Defiant Whistleblower Vows to Carry on After Florida Police Raided Home, Pulled Guns on Kids: ‘Will Not Stop Me … Ever’

Defiant Whistleblower Vows to Carry on After Florida Police Raided Home, Pulled Guns on Kids: ‘Will Not Stop Me … Ever’

Rebekah Jones, the Covid whistleblower and Florida researcher whose home was raided at gunpoint, told CNN’s Chris Cuomo that Gov. Ron Desantis is trying to intimidate her, but she won’t back down.

Jones appeared on Monday night’s edition of Cuomo Primetime hours after she posted harrowing footage of state police raiding her home with guns drawn — while her children were present.

In the last 22 years, Republicans have ruined Florida, starting with Jeb Bush in 1998.
