New post on Substack free for everyone:
Last Wednesday, on CNBC, CDC Director Rochelle Walensky swatted away mask questions from host Shep Smith and instead dumped tons of platitudes about “the science” on him.
She meandered here and there about the vaccines and the variants and making sure “you’re not an asymptomatic carrier if you’re vaccinated” before we could act like vaccinated people.
By Thursday morning everything had changed. New “science” must have come in overnight.
Vaccinated people could go maskless outdoors and indoors.
It was a miracle and it makes us wonder what the new science was?
Was the new science the catastrophic jobs report?
Was the science the horrific inflation numbers?
Maybe the science was the “neanderthals” in Texas and Florida living maskless and free, making the administration look like fools.
Walensky cobbled together a few studies here and there but those were not new.
Yep. They opted to enact the distraction nuclear option and there was pushback from all sides.
It was ugly out there.
Someone had to take the heat. Take the fall.
To the gangplank walked Rochelle Walensky. She appeared on about 67 Sunday Shows and offered the same hopeful note before being wholly eviscerated.
“Let’s celebrate this moment,” pivoted Walensky. Then she took her beating.
Sunday was brutal for Walensky. She had no good answers because there were no good answers. Instead she was made to take ownership of the Biden administration’s entire campaign of coronavirus incompetency, almost all of it fueled by cynical politics.
She is finito, it is only a matter of when she will be quietly perp-walked out of the building.
Though the telegenic Walensky put on a brave face during her time on the dock, there is no doubt that she finished the day with a feeling of impending doom.

Let’s hope Saint Fauci is right behind her..
No tears for leftists from me. The Biden administration is illegitimate, criminal, and idiotic.
it was the $7 a gallon gas.
Rochelle, ma Belle!
You will go down in history as a highly paid Spin Doctor.
Maybe she will take Psakis’ place.
She’s not going anywhere.
No qualified person in their right mind would take the job.
Something is strange about that chick
Elevator does not go to the Penthouse
People responded poorly to the stick, now they’re trying the carrot?
Funny how Biden is mining Newton MA for all these doctors in his administration, Probably one of the top 10 liberal cities/towns in America.
