This report is correct. Pelosi & Schumer are willing to risk your life, your job, your retirement savings for a radical, left-wing wish list that has nothing to do with this virus. Disgraceful. Guy Benson on Twitter

Schumer/Pelosi now pushing these demands amid pandemic-fueled economic collapse:
1) Unprecedented collective bargaining powers for unions
2) Increased fuel emissions standards for airlines
3) Expansion of wind and solar tax credits

Dr. Anthony Fauci: Travel Ban To China Absolutely Made A Difference

Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said Sunday that while the U.S. will definitely “get hit” by coronavirus, he has reasons to believe that the country may fare better than other parts of the world, at least in part due to early action by the Trump administration

Fauci on Trump: 'I can't jump in front of the microphone and push him down' - CNNPolitics


Fauci was specifically asked about some of Trump's comments, including his assertion that China should have told US officials about the coronavirus three months sooner. That would have been around September, and there is no evidence Chinese officials were aware of the virus at that time.
"It just doesn't comport with facts," said the interviewer, Jon Cohen.
"I know, but what do you want me to do?" Fauci replied. "I mean, seriously Jon, let's get real. What do you want me to do?"

An underlying problem is that there has been a feud started by Trump with China and we have been expelling their journalists and they have been expelling our journalists. Not sure how long that’s been going on, but it was reported on NPR. Also, there is this agency called the CIA that most likely would have or should have had advanced knowledge of the virus outbreak, but was probably ignored by the moron in chief.

The travel restrictions were too little, too late, and are rather meaningless with early testing, testing testing. The virus is called Covid-19 because it was identified in 2019. Tell me one protective measure this administration put in place in 2019. I'll tell you one protective measure it eliminated in 2018, and the whole world knows about it.

In this earlier post of mine, I meant to say “travel restrictions are meaningless WITHOUT testing, testing, testing”. You have to have the early testing to know where it’s spreading, how it is spreading, and whether a travel restriction is really working. In other words, the virus most likely was already community spreading in the states before the travel restrictions.

What will be your response when trump’s experts become the business community and not healthcare professionals?

“He Can’t Make Any Big Decisions”: As the Crisis Escalates, Trump Experiments With a Pivot

According to sources, Trump is increasingly frustrated with Fauci and governors who advocated for shutting down large swathes of the economy to stop COVID-19’s out-of-control spread. According to four Republicans briefed on internal West Wing conversations, Trump is fuming privately that Fauci advised him that the only way to blunt the pandemic was to bring the economy to a halt. “Trump is furious,” a former West Wing official said. “He’s been calling business leaders asking if he should just reopen the economy,” a Republican briefed on the conversations told me. “He’s hearing that you have to get the economy going,” another former West Wing official said.
