I realized something today:

How many of you are subject matter experts in your fields? My company considers me to be one, and they have sent me all over the world to manage projects, consult, coach others, host multi-day workshops, etc. Every day people I have met somewhere in the word come to me for help, advice, problem solving, etc. I know I'm not as knowledgeable as others in my company at some specific parts of what I do, but I know who to go to or to bring into various issues as needed.

Now, my boss is a Director, and his boss is an Executive Director. We all have engineering degrees and a couple decades or more of experience. But you know what always happens when the Executive Director tries to talk about a technical subject she really doesn't know much about, but just so happens to manage the organization with the experts? Yeah, try not to roll your eyes or laugh out loud at the shear absurdity of half the stuff she says. And the VP is even worse with the constant self-promotion and obsession with certain things he wants to push for half basked reasons.

Is it no wonder that Fauci, who heads an agency, and who happens to be a Dr., but is really a career bureaucrat and manager is probably mangling what the real experts that work a few levels below him actually say? It a certainty, not a probability.

More news from the COVID criminal release program here in PA Roll Eyes Not shocked. Accused rapist released. Violent crime and against wishes of DA. This is the state where the Gov wants us to listen to his faux-wisdom. BTW, yes-he BBQ'd.

More info in video Accused rapist found dead after fire, barricade situation in Hilltown Township


HILLTOWN TOWNSHIP, Pennsylvania (WPVI) -- An accused rapist who was recently released from prison was found dead inside a Bucks County home following a barricade situation on Tuesday.

The wild scene played out on the 2000 block of Hilltown Pike in Hilltown Township around 11 a.m.

Investigators say the incident started with some type of altercation involving a man and accused rapist, Curtis Fish.

Officials tell Action News that the suspect also tried to break into the Crossroads Tavern before fleeing into his home nearby.

Crossroads Tavern owner Mike Mrozinski was inside and watched most of it happen.

"He's not himself. I've known him for 16 years and he's not the same guy I had known him to be," said Mrozinski.

Mrozinski says police tried to tase him but it didn't work and he got inside his residence. Seconds later he came back out armed with fireworks and video shows him set them off. The house then went up in flames.

Way past tired of this flattening of the economy.

Pres. Trump needs to give Dr. Fraudci the boot.
Let him go play with numbers somewhere else.

This Fauchi has more or less openly stated that if he had his way:

We would be locked down for 2 full years or until this magical vaccine is developed

You wouldn’t be able to go on a plane, go travel anywhere unless you had your “papers” for vaccine on you

Handshaking should be abolished


WTF, man? Why is Trump still keeping this guy around? I liked him at first but IMO it’s time he be quietly shown the door.

How exactly does that work? Has he found an alternate to food and water?

You can only pump so much cash into the system before it becomes meaningless. If no one produces food a zillion dollar bill won't be enough to buy a can of beans.

'Nothing from the CDC that I can trust': Birx reportedly casts doubt on coronavirus figures

https://www.washingtonexaminer...-coronavirus-figures



Dr. Deborah Birx, a leading member of the White House task force combating the coronavirus, and the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reportedly clashed last week over the veracity of data the center collects regarding cases and deaths.

During what sources characterized as a "heated discussion," according to to the Washington Post, Birx expressed frustration with Dr. Robert Redfield that the CDC was using an outdated system to track data that might be inflating figures, such as the mortality rate, by as much as 25%.

“There is nothing from the CDC that I can trust," Birx reportedly said.

......

President Trump has expressed skepticism regarding coronavirus numbers reported by states and the federal government.




So, a few weeks ago I was the supervisor on the scene of a fatal motorcycle accident.
A couple of hours after the accident, I get a call from my desk asking me to call the Cook Co Medical Examiners office (the Corner). I do...
One of the Medical Examiners asked me "How did he feel before the accident?" "Was he sick?"
They asked me straight up if it was COVID related!
Then the good man informs me that each COVID related death, the state, county and city gets $39,000 to split between them.
The CLOSEST this death came to a Chinese virus was a Japnese motorcycle.

Then I was reminded of an old saying when I was working narcotics-
"Follow the money"


87 year old dies.... There's no downside of making this "natural" death into a "COVID" related death.
55 year old, asthma, overweight, diabetes dies, maybe he had the flu before they brought them into the hospital, there's no downside of checking the "COVID" box on the death certificate.

Now that's just one death that I had to deal with. Multiply that by all the other deaths in just Chicago.... How many deaths do you think that can "just happen to" fall into the COVID category?

There is no doubt that the Covid-19 situation has been weaponized against Trump. None. The leftist trash isn’t even being subtle about it, any more than they were with the shampeachment. They are desperate.

Politicians Lied About the Lockdowns




"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

PA Health Secretary Moved Mother Out Of Personal Care Home After Ordering Nursing Homes To Accept COVID Patients

PETER HASSONEDITOR

May 13, 20207:34 AM ET

Pennsylvania Health Secretary Rachel Levine’s mother moved out of a personal care home with the health secretary’s help, after Levine ordered all nursing homes and long-term facilities in the state to accept coronavirus patients from hospitals.

Levine admitted Tuesday to moving the 95-year-old Pennsylvania resident out of her personal care home, which is similar to an assisted living facility although technically distinct.

“My mother requested, and my sister and I as her children complied to move her to another location during the COVID-19 outbreak,” Levine said. The health secretary’s admission came after local station ABC27 found out about the move.

“My mother is 95 years old. She is very intelligent and more than competent to make her own decisions,” said Levine, who in 2015 became the first transgender cabinet member in Pennsylvania’s state government.

Levine had previously cited the mother’s situation at a long-term care facility while talking about state regulations of those types of facilities. (RELATED: Check Out All These Mayors Who Broke The Same Social Distancing Rules They Demanded Others Obey)

“We are seeing community spread of this virus in most areas of Pennsylvania. And we need to make sure that our loved ones in nursing homes stay safe. And that is why actually I am not able to visit my mother, either,” Levine said on March 29.

That was 11 days after the health secretary ordered nursing homes and other long-term facilities to continue admitting new patients and re-admitting current patients from the hospital, despite concerns about the elderly population’s vulnerability to the virus.

“This may include stable patients who have had the COVID-19 virus,” the department acknowledged while explaining the order.

Levine is facing calls to resign over the department’s handling of the coronavirus outbreak.

“Our secretary of health, Dr. Levine, decided that it would be good to allow COVID-positive patients to be returned to elder-care facilities. And as a result of that, it broke out like fire,” Republican state Sen. Doug Mastriano said Monday at a rally calling for Levine’s resignation.

The state is facing a class-action lawsuit, filed April 28, that claims the department of health ceased inspecting long-term care facilities now plagued by the virus.

Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo has also faced scrutiny over his state’s handling of vulnerable nursing homes during the pandemic.

Cuomo on Sunday reversed a March 25 order requiring nursing homes to accept coronavirus patients. Under the new order, nursing homes and other long-term care facilities are allowed to wait for patients to test negative for the virus before admitting them.

The governor acknowledged that nursing homes have become “ground zero” for the virus.

They send them to reinfect everyone else in the old age homes while the Javitz Center and other temporary hospitals sit empty. Does make much sense to me. Seems like a no brainier to treat them in the empty field hospitals.
