    —A whistleblower alleges that some federal employees were sent to work at coronavirus quarantine locations in California without adequate safety protocols and then flew back home on commercial airplanes, according to a person familiar with the complaint against the Department of Health and Human Services.

    https://www.wsj.com/articles/whistl...tes-didnt-follow-safety-protocols-11582840144

    So, get this:

    Trump's "Health Workers" violated health protocol by not wearing protective clothing.

    Trump's Gov't Workers (apparently amateurs who have no idea how to handle a major health crisis) don't even know the protocol for wearing protective clothing.

    Trump's "response" may actually lead to the Further SPREAD of the coronavirus.

    Does anybody actually think that Trump (as he claims) has this "under control"?

    Thoughts?

    Think about this:

    federal employees were sent to work at coronavirus quarantine locations in California without adequate safety protocols and then flew back home on commercial airplanes

    Trump is Helping SPREAD the Virus.:smh:

    I have no doubt Trump hand picked these people based on how much they support the party and definitely not for their experience or expertise.

    Trump turned this potentially steaming pile over to unsuspecting rube Pence... so history will record Pence was the Typhoid Mike of this health crisis..

    But Trump is standing by to toss tissues out to the masses, since this is basically just a flu strain to Mr. Science...

    Obviously.

    In Trump's World:

    Anybody Even Remotely Competent = Deep State.

    Trump's "Health Workers" = Violate Protocol/Spread Virus.

    ^Wow.:roflol:

    Sounds like these career civil servants might have actually violated the procedures the Trump Admin out into place.

    Well we have now established that some Dems don't know the difference between a field level supervisor and a Chief Executive of the country. Libs don't understand management theory or what constitutes an effective span of control. The OP suggests that Trump directly supervise over 2 million service employees.

    We have also established that CDC personnel who risk their lives will be bashed by libs if it furthers their cause.

    BTW libs, unlike what your pandering liars said in the clown show debate CDC funding is increase per the budget signed by Trump.

    Not to hijack your thread AJ, but is that supposed to be Chris Christie on the right??

    I saw him on Colbert earlier this week... I gotta say that I find him enjoyable, for a Republican tool.... He has a legit sense of humor and is a good guest. No other Republicans bother showing up for Stephen, since they usually end up looking like idiots... Christie more than holds his own...

    I'd go with the "fat men are jolly" thing, but Trump ruins that theory.

    BTW wingers, CDC funding was CUT by 16% in the Trump 2021 budget, per left wing rag Forbes....

    SNIP
    Trump released his proposed 2021 budget Monday, which included a 16% cut to the CDC’s budget and a 10% overall reduction to the Department of Health and Human Services’ funding, according to the Washington Post.
    ENDSNIP

    What the [deleted] does a FY 2021 budget have to do with the ability to deal with the current crisis? Answer -- nothing. But as was pointed out libs never let a crisis go to waste.

    Seems like these unnamed sources are a dime a dozen for the Dems.

    Whistleblower Says Federal Employees Flown From Coronavirus Sites Didn’t Follow Safety Protocols
    Employees weren’t tested for virus before leaving California quarantine sites on commercial flights, complaint says

    Americans Evacuated
    WASHINGTON—A whistleblower alleges

    So, is the whistleblower actually making these statements from proof or is the whistleblower just making allegations?


    allege [əˈlej] VERB
    alleges (third person present)
    1. claim or assert that someone has done something illegal or wrong, typically without proof that this is the case.

    Link is behind a paywall.

    The rules at PF state that the OP needs a source, and that sources behind a paywall do not count.



    ^ So there's that.

    When starting a thread at PF, please follow the rules.

    Also, it seems the LW Faux Outrage Machine is working overtime:

    Trump Dismisses CDC Warning on Coronavirus Outbreak, I dont-think its inevitable

    Trump claims coronavirus is 'going to go away' despite mounting concerns

    Looking forward to the fourth thread on the subject from the LW.

    And on-topic, if voters don't like what Trump is saying about the Coronavirus, they are free not to vote for him in November.

    Problem solved. :thumbsup:

    As it should have been cut. They had massive redundancy of management and actions. You Leftists trying to politicize this virus is disgusting. You run around spouting off DNC talking points not knowing why and you should be embarrassed. Orwell called it.

    The left using spending as a metric to measure success says a lot.

    The workers are members of the Administration for Children and Families, a unit within HHS that usually deals with people recovering from natural disasters, which may raise questions about President Donald Trump’s cutback of resources for infectious diseases throughout his administration.

    https://www.forbes.com/sites/rachel...ithout-protective-gear-training/#365acb937e6e

    Wow.:smh:

    He sends people that don't even know what they are doing.

    Also, it is Great to know that Trump's "Economy" is Helping everyone's 401k Accounts.

    Trump's Stock Market down about 3,500 Points in 4 days.:roflol:

    Maybe, his "Grand Scheme" to "Keep America Great" involves spreading the Virus and Tanking the World Economy?

    It sure looks like it.

    The Way that His People are avoiding Public Health Protocol and Spreading the Virus.

    Wow.:smh:

    Odd, there hasn't even been an outbreak and liberals have already deemed the response a failure. So we already know whatever happens doesn't matter to them, the liberal metrics are purely political. Yet they have the gall to pretend they care about the public's health. How sad is that?

    So an anonymous whistleblower says something.

    Wow.

    This one is truly the BIG one.

    You have Trump now.

    Impeachment is the way to go.

    I'm sure Trump has already read this thread and is drafting his resignation speech at this very moment.

    Surely seeing this LW copypasta will bring him down this time.

    Trump is on the ropes now.
