Administration officials moved to treat the nation’s top infectious disease expert as if he were a warring political rival, releasing a list of what they said were questionable statements he had made.
By Maggie Haberman
President Trump’s advisers undercut the nation’s top infectious disease expert, Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, over the weekend, anonymously providing details to various news outlets about statements he had made early in the coronavirus outbreak that they said were inaccurate.
The move to treat Dr. Fauci, who has led the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases for decades, as if he were a warring political rival came as he has grown increasingly vocal in his concerns about the national surge in coronavirus cases, as well as his lack of access to Mr. Trump over the past several weeks. It has been accompanied by more measured public criticism from administration officials, including the president.
And it came just days after the White House called school reopening guidelines released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention overly restrictive, part of a pattern of the administration trying to sideline recommendations that could slow the reopening of the economy, which Mr. Trump views as vital to his flailing re-election effort.
Aides to Mr. Trump first released to The Washington Post what the paper called a “lengthy list” of remarks that Dr. Fauci had made about the virus when it was in its early stages. That list featured several comments from Dr. Fauci that White House aides had privately complained about for months, including one in February in which he minimized the chance of asymptomatic spread and said people did not need to make big changes to their lives.

He gives a pass to anything deemed essential by the Left - which just points him out as having an agenda based on criteria other than medical necessity.
Looks like enough “Smoke”
Time call Fauxi
A Con Man of
Global Proportions!
I hope that little quack enjoys his moments of fame. Because after Trump wins he is going to be hoisted to hell out of there.
Trump is really going to be something after he wins and the SOBs know it.
You all think the show was fun to watch so far? You aint seen nothing.
My father says he believes everything this guy says. My siblings and I could not convince him otherwise.
Fauci will never again be able to set foot outside the beltway without being verbally accosted by someone whose life he ruined.
Have him read the article I posted at #12. It’s a good one
It's Maggie "Haggie" Haberman.
Nuff said.
Life-loser and life-long government “worker “ fauci commented “Quack...quack...quack!”

Gotta love Twitter when it lets this kind of stuff past the censorship barrier...
Fauci helped cause the epidemic. He always backed “gain of function research” that enables bat and other animal viruses to infect humans when they couldn’t do that naturally.
Screw Fauci. He’s a worthless POS, literally.
Partisan Media Shills update.
QUITE TRUE. Then there is his 15 yr search for a HIV VACCINE. His contradicting statements.
He says he refuses to read or do research on the internet because you cannot believe everything you read.
In other words, ABCNBCCBS and CNN are the gospel truth.
It blows my mind!! Seems we just can’t knock common sense into a 90 year old.
Fixed it.
We there you have it
