He should have gotten rid of everyone who was on staff under Obama the day he got into office. We have all seen what their plan was. Why in the world would Trump have wanted to use anything that worthless POS Obama had in place?

Interesting at least to me that the CDC wasn't the lead especially in the beginning of the pandemic.
Tim Morrison, former senior director for counterproliferation and biodefense on the NSC, wrote in another Washington Post Op-Ed, “It is true that the Trump administration has seen fit to shrink the NSC staff. But the bloat that occurred under the previous administration clearly needed a correction. … One such move at the NSC was to create the counterproliferation and biodefense directorate, which was the result of consolidating three directorates into one, given the obvious overlap between arms control and nonproliferation, weapons of mass destruction terrorism, and global health and biodefense. It is this reorganization that critics have misconstrued or intentionally misrepresented. If anything, the combined directorate was stronger because related expertise could be commingled”
On March 14, 2020, John Bolton described the changes made to the team as streamlining. He tweeted: “Claims that streamlining NSC structures impaired our nation's bio defense are false. Global health remained a top NSC priority, and its expert team was critical to effectively handling the 2018-19 Africa Ebola crisis. The angry Left just can't stop attacking, even in a crisis.”
On March 19, 2020, former Vice President and Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden called the changes elimination. He tweeted: “The Obama-Biden Administration set up the White House National Security Council Directorate for Global Health Security and Biodefense to prepare for future pandemics like COVID-19. Donald Trump eliminated it — and now we're paying the price.”

Seriously- watch this.
We are all being manipulated and censored by big tech and the media if we do not tow the party line. You tube literally stated outright they will censor ANY video that disagrees with the official WHO position...a position which has been contradictory and ever changing.

I have been predicting civil disobedience for this illegitimate usurpation of power by governors who are bent totally out of shape on this. It is obvious. Some states are dealing prudently with this; other states are being ridiculously STUPID about it. If they don't see the writing on the wall, don't worry, they will be made to understand it, cause people are not going to stand for it much longer.
I hear tell of a gym in New Jersey that has opened in defiance of New Jersey orders. Elon Musk has said he is opening his Tesla business and threatened to move lock stock and barrel out of California if they crack down on him. The Supreme Court if Wisconsin invalidates shutdown orders, and bars opened in many places accordingly.
What those idiots have not yet gleaned is their intransigence is losing votes for them. People don't like seeing their lives ruined by this silly crap. They know who to blame.

I saw a real interesting tidbit in today's Burlington Free Press. I guess they have come up with a new way to determine case load or infection rate. A "chosen person" is delegated to go to a municipal sewage treatment plant and fill a sample container with processed human waste. They break down the sample and screen for covid which is shed as part of the human excrement cycle. Somone calculates the amount of users on that municipal system and they can determine the case load from the amount or percentage of covid in the feces sample. That is one job I wouldn't want LOL. I didn't make this up.....
