DeSantis was thanking Dr. Birx for highlighting his approach of focusing Covid testing on FLA nursing homes and assisted living facilities.

Contrast that to the Cuomo approach of mandating those facilities take in Covid patients resulting in thousands of deaths.

The comments to his tweet are interesting and confirm DeSantis was ‘going against the grain’ with his approach to the pandemic. The fact he was recently reelected by a wide margin afterwards speaks for itself.

In Florida re: the county health officer “This position is appointed by the State Surgeon General and Secretary of the Department of Health after the concurrence of the local governing body.”

Dr. Alonso is now retired. She was with Palm Beach County Health Department since 1989 and was made director in 2009. In 2009 the governor of Florida was Charlie Crist.

So explain how this physician was DeSantis’ very own health doctor.

if we tell the truth and have dispassionate discussions of the records of various candidates, relating to Covid, we are going to find many shortcomings for both DeSantis and Trump.

And we will also find many actions taken by both which were beneficial.


On this we agree.

Too bad DeSantis is lying about all this by trying to blame Trump for the same mistakes he made.

As the days go by, I think we will see DeSanctimonious completely shred the Religious Blanket he has wrapped himself up in and people will see what a liar he is.

What a hypocrite and liar DeSantis and his backers are.

Thomas Massie lied earlier in the day when he claimed Trump supported lockdowns during Covid. Trump opposed lockdowns from the beginning.

He had the direct authority to lockdown his state and he did - Kristi Noem on the other hand stood staunchly against lockdowns

Noem is what DeSantis bros want him to be https://t.co/0EK19xVEWu— RoscoeSteele (@_RoscoeSteele) May 25, 2023

DeSantis or Trump who did nothing about Fauci, Birx and others that he refused to fire and allowed them to kill thousands of Americans? Your bitching about something DeSantis said at the start but give Trump a pass? Maybe the crazy one is you?

That’s a rather innocuous quote to make that big a deal out of where he is responding to something Dr. Birx said, which the article is not including.

However, DeSantis is changing his narrative, which I have pointed out before is indeed disingenuous, as a way to try to damage Trump - this will not ultimately help him. It is self defeating as he had a very good record with battling COVID thanks to his leadership - a record which he could have campaigned on as a testament to his leadership, but instead believes trying to attack Trump is the better course. It makes no sense, and this approach will be his downfall.

And the complete fiction from you continues unabated. Do you *ever* say anything that is factual? Ever?

Trump says he disagrees with Georgia governor's move to end lockdown

Play the video at the posted Twitter link....as “Mac_Truck” said in post #61 on this thread: “DeSantis was thanking Dr. Birx for highlighting his approach of focusing Covid testing on FLA nursing homes and assisted living facilities.” This thread/Twitter link highlights Gov. DeSantis going above & beyond to protect seniors in FL. PDJT’s Dr. Birx in the Twitter video is highlighting Gov. DeSantis’s “proactive approach” in protecting senior citizens in nursing homes & assisted living.

Update...

The $cienc€ - Deborah Birx who pushed the covid vaccine and knowingly spread false information about masks has been named CEO of a PHARMA company.

I'll add that company to my list of whose meds to avoid.
