Just the other day, Martha Raddatz was praising Lamont for how much better his state handled the nursing home issue compared to New York.

An AA hire, in over her head. Liberal feelgooder.

“She was successful in integrating services
to provide a student-centered holistic
approach in the provision of health services while also rebranding the department, and
developing a new mission, vision and guiding principles along with implementing a new
electronic health record system for the entire department. She was also successful in
generating an additional 1M in revenue annually and bringing trans-health/gender
affirmation services to the center for the student body.”

If even Ned Lamont can do it, why can’t President Trump do it?
Fire Fauci now.

The health commissioner...

Seems like most of these "commisioners" are incompetent affirmative action hires. In normal times they don't have to do anything but collect a paycheck, but when the SHTF it's hard to hide their ineptitude.

Here's another. This one from Michigan.

What percentage of all deaths are nursing home? These governors are murderers.

Lamont was getting burned by all the nursing home deaths. The families were getting in his face.

When he tried to figure out what was going on and asked lots of questions, he discovered the village idiot.

Oops.

The she/he/it (sounds best slurred) Secretary of Health is mentally ill.

IrishBrigade posted this tribute a couple of weeks ago:

while a young kid Richie could then see
his dickie would cause him great frenzy
so he took a huge axe
gave his penis some whacks
and became a grim bigwig in Pennsy..

"What percentage of all deaths are nursing home? These governors are murderers."

It's "Generation-Cide" aimed at "The Greatest Generation" and should be a "Crime Against Humanity.

It is also is an insult to Exodus 20:12.

Most elders who died are not from The Greatest Generation.
