Give us anyone with a mind that is not on life support.

For f's sake. Give us Tom Hanks as El Presidente. He certainly couldn't do worse than what we have.

Straight up gaslighting. My favorite part is this:
“We’ve seen the fact that they kicked the journalists out,” Mr. Pompeo said, referring to orders that American correspondents from The New York Times, The Washington Post and The Wall Street Journal leave China. “We saw the fact that those who were trying to report on this, medical professionals inside of China, were silenced. They shut down reporting — all the kind of things that authoritarian regimes do, the way Communist parties operate.”

With no apparent sense of irony that this administration is taking significant steps to make our system resemble the one he abhors.

WE took our own CDC folks OUT just a few months prior. Cut the funding.
It'll be interesting to see what future investigations sort out on those fronts.

As long as they stay on message, true or not, #Cult45 will fall in line.

You've got to be effing kidding me... this was from a virtual SNL skit, right?
 


This is exactly correct.

Lickspittles and PilotFish, all taking their little chunks of political fame and any $$ they can scam, with the career folks running around trying to constantly put out fires.

There is no strategy for any of it. Turns out, government can work pretty well w/o much direction, until you hit some big crisis point. Then the lack of leadership and sound decisionmaking is amplified in spades.
