People are realizing AIDS isn’t as fashionable as it once was for some reason.

Do the members of this advisory council draw salary and benefits? If so, that is 16 fewer non-essential personnel drawing money from the public coffers.

They serve at the President’s pleasure, or lack thereof.

Why was this even a thing anymore? Reagan may have started this council, but there are now ways to manage the disease, and the Surgeon General should be able to handle this as well as any other public health issues at this point.

Trump is a lightweight, compared with Reagan.
Reagan fired 30,000 vital Air Traffic Controllers at once, for striking.

But it was fine and dandy when Obama fired all of Bush’s advisory council..in fact it was never even reported..so again..the fake news media strikes again

“Not like this is unprecedented. As noted, predecessors cleaned house too.”
That Trump is just getting around to this, tells you where it is on his priority list. This band of faggots were probably tapping the treasury for their “show up job,” so Trump gave the taxpayers yet another small Christmas present.

Yeah, but they probably didn't want gays to die like Trump does. Just ask most of the "glbt" crowd and they'll tell you. 👹. Happy new year.

Why is there a “council” like that in the first place?

following the resignation of six members in June 2017 in protest at Trump's health policies. New applicants are expected to apply before the council reconvenes in January 2018. So half of the council quit in June, and no one reported it?
Even if these dudes are not paid, you can bet that their expenses are completely covered whenever they "need" to come to DC or NYC.

"After Barack Obama entered office, his White House dismissed all of PACHAs members who were appointed during the terms of President George W. Bush.
Nonetheless, HIV and AIDS activists criticized the Trump administration."

I didn't realize that "Fury" meant feeling warm and fuzzy all over.
I guess I learned something new.

I didn’t even know there was a Presidential Advisory Council on HIV/AIDS.
Sounds like a boondoggle for shoveling tax dollars to left wing hacks.

The bottom of the barrel will be when CNN reports on Trump changing the brand of toilet paper used in the White House toilets.
However on second thought, I think they CNN has gone below that level already when they started to criticize him drinking water!

More money is spent on AIDS than all the cancers, MS, ALS, Parkinsons, and Alzheimers combined.
