  1. After the Ebola virus outbreak, President Obama created the NSC directorate for global health and security and bio-defense, and he passed the directorate on to Trump in 2017 when he left office. So what happened to it? President Obama left Trump with a global health infrastructure that was set up and informed by the lessons of the Ebola outbreak.  President Obama left Trump an office set up in the White House that was responsible for managing pandemics, and managing global health threats. The directorate was staffed with dedicated people who ensured that information is acted upon. When you see an outbreak in a place like Wuhan, China, you want people in the White House who are thinking about what needs to be done right away so that you don’t get behind the curve. The directorate that President Obama left Trump with was set up to be the “smoke alarm” and get ahead of emergencies and sound a warning at the earliest sign of a fire — all with the goal of avoiding a six-alarm fire. So....what happened to NSC directorate that President Obama left Trump with?

  2. Trump's administration buried a document created by the nation’s top disease investigators with step-by-step advice to local authorities on how and when to reopen restaurants and other public places. The 17-page report by a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention team, titled “Guidance for Implementing the Opening Up America Again Framework,” was researched and written to help faith leaders, business owners, educators and state and local officials as they begin to reopen. It was supposed to be published last Friday, but agency scientists were told the guidance “would never see the light of day." Once again Trump is dismissive of scientific facts because they get in the way of the BS he's trying to sell to the country. Instead of sharing this vital information which can literally save lives, he hides it. Trump's cult has bought into his commitment to willful ignorance. Trump feeds them lies and misinformation on a daily basis, and they accept it without questioning the validity of anything he says. And at the same time, they will say that they are protesting for their "freedom." What they don't realize is that no man or woman can ever truly be free without factual information....without the truth. Without the facts and the truth, they are nothing more than tools for the person feeding them lies. "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."
