President Donald Trump fired the remaining members of the Presidential Advisory Council on HIV/AIDS (PACHA) Wednesday, reportedly informing them without explanation with a letter delivered by FedEx.
The mass dismissal of the advisers marked another nadir in the administration’s dealing with the council. In June, six members resigned from PACHA writing in an open letter, published in Newsweek, saying the Trump White House was pushing for legislation that would harm people living with HIV.
Scott A. Schoettes, a Chicago-based HIV/AIDS activist and one of the members of the advisory panel who resigned over the summer, tweeted yesterday that the remaining council members had been fired for calling President Trump and Vice President Mike Pence “dangerous.”
“Remaining #HIV/AIDS council members booted by @realDonaldTrump. No respect for their service,” Schoettes wrote on the social media site. “Dangerous that #Trump and Co. (Pence esp.) are eliminating few remaining people willing to push back against harmful policies, like abstinence-only sex ed,” he added.

Newsweak.
Don’t believe these Lying Leftist Media outlets that proved themselves during the 2016 campaign to be operatives of the DNC and intentional liars. They are presumed to be lying and we should presume what they publish is a lie. The presumption can only be rebutted with the outlet providing clear and convincing evidence they are not lying.
Why don’t we follow Trump’s lead here on FR? Let’s limit posting headlines from these wretched Lying Leftist outlets. It’s okay, like Trump, to read this stuff, so you know what they’re up to - just don’t post using these Lying Leftist outlets as the source which is a form of promoting their lies. Do like Trump – post the truth about the issue using a reasonably reliable source or yourself as the source. That’s how to EXPOSE the lies without promoting them.
What on earth is the purpose of an HIV/AIDS Council?
We all know how it’s spread. We know what NOT to partake in - why do taxpayers have to foot the bill for a bunch of PC homosexual enthusiasts.
More WINNING!
Yes, one man’s nadir is another’s acme.
Where did these activists stand on the decision in California to open up blood donations?
Where do these activists stand on the protection of those with AIDS from having to notify their sex partners (past, present, and future)?
Newsweak engages in faggotry worthy of drama queens.
“Ohhhh the (mock) outrage”
The best way to control aids is to realize that it is filthy behavior that originates and spreads the virus. That behavior is an abomination to God as He states clearly in Leviticus 18:23. The Cubans have a very low rate of new AIDS cases because it is national policy to quarantine the afflicted. It works magnificently.

Perhaps they'd have more luck preventing HIV and AIDS if they were the impulse CONTROL group.
Just a thought.
Or just tweet it :)
I guess the whiners don’t comprehend the meaning of “AT THE PLEASURE OF”!
Buh bye.
USPS delivers for FedEx.
So, same difference.
Or one might in this case, one man’s egress is another man’s ingress.
“The Cubans have a very low rate of new AIDS cases because it is national policy to quarantine the afflicted”
Use a tweet. It’s free
Newsweek, another damn lie.

AIDS: A**hole Injected Death Sentence. Sounds cruel but in reality that’s what it is.
Because the have to sign for it to see what’s in it. It has already been established the lie like Muslims. Oh, I didn’t get that memo...
(A) “Presidential Advisory Council on HIV/AIDS”
(B) “Dangerous that #Trump and Co. (Pence esp.) are eliminating few remaining people willing to push back against harmful policies, like abstinence-only sex ed,”
And how does the work of that council relate to “abstinence only sex ed policies”?
It doesn’t. And likely what is clear to Trump is the council has become nothing other than a place to give a place to political activists.
Where is “The President’s Council on Autism”, or “The President’s Council on Diabetes”, or many other non-existent councils on major health topics? No where. Why? Unlikely they would be needed to give jobs to political activists.
WTF? Why is there a Canadian on this council? No less a follower in 0bama's footsteps as "Community Organizer"????
