the minefield of trying to tell the truth and remain credible and still maintain enough of a presence to actually be effective in getting a message out.

He managed that... and deserves ANOTHER medal of freedom, IMO. Birx didn't IMO. When it mattered, she toed the line. She chose poorly.

Fauci is out trying to educate people about the virus after a year of being muffled by Trump... meanwhile Birx is trying to rewrite history and rehabilitate her image...

“your immediate household.”? Then flew her entire family to ONE of her vacation homes on Fenwick Island in Delaware the day after Thanksgiving?

WASHINGTON — As COVID-19 cases skyrocketed before the Thanksgiving holiday weekend, the coordinator of the White House coronavirus response warned Americans to “be vigilant” and to limit celebrations to “your immediate household.”

For many Americans that guidance has been difficult to abide, including for Dr. Deborah Birx herself.

The day after Thanksgiving, Birx traveled to one of her vacation properties on Fenwick Island in Delaware. She was accompanied by three generations of her family from two households.

Kathleen Flynn, whose brother is married to Birx's daughter, told the Associated Press she came forward about the travel out of concern for her own parents, and acknowledged there was family friction over the incident.

Birx confirmed to the Associated Press she traveled to the Delaware property, but declined to be interviewed for the report.


That Dr. Brix? Fuck her.
