Biden names fired surgeon general as a head of his COVID-19 taskforce

NY Post


"President-elect Joe Biden has already selected the heads of his coronavirus taskforce, including the surgeon general who was fired soon after President Trump took office.

"Vivek Murthy, who was the nation’s top doctor when Biden was vice president under President Barack Obama, will be named as one of the co-chairs along with former Food and Drug Administration commissioner David Kessler, Biden’s deputy campaign manager, Kate Bedingfield, told NBC’s “Meet the Press” Sunday." . . .

2017: This article is more than 3 years old : Trump administration removes Obama surgeon general pick Vivek Murthy   "The Trump administration has removed Dr Vivek Murthy as US surgeon general, leading one Democratic senator to accuse the president of “politicising the position”.

"Murthy was appointed by Barack Obama and confirmed by the Senate in December 2014 after a long delay. Murthy had incurred the wrath of the National Rifle Association by saying gun control was a “healthcare issue”.

"During his tenure, he helped produce a White House report that said climate change had become a public health crisis, and launched Facing Addiction, the first surgeon general’s report on alcohol, drugs and health." . . .

MSM Plot Exposed: ‘Trusted News Initiative’ Leads Coup Against President Trump

 Noisy Room


"While Americans were focused on communist-driven violent riots and Chinese coronavirus tyranny, the most powerful players in the mainstream media were scheming to launch a coup against President Donald Trump using the deceptively-named “Trusted News Initiative.” The TNI was also put in place to silence dissent on the preferred coronavirus narrative.


"On July 13, 2020, Variety reported that the TNI “is setting up a shared early warning system of rapid alerts to combat the spread of disinformation during the upcoming U.S. Presidential election.”

"The idea is that the mainstream media coordinate their message to shut down voices they deem contrary to their narrative.

"It is unclear who elected the mainstream media and massive corporations such as Microsoft, Google, Facebook and Twitter to be the Arbiters of Truth, yet that is exactly with TNI purports itself to be, referring to their effort as “an industry collaboration of major news and global tech organizations working together to stop the spread of disinformation where it poses risk of real world harm.”

“ 'Some people have tried to turn the term ‘mainstream media’ into a form of abuse to undermine credibility, but we are on the public’s side and will fight tirelessly to get high-quality journalism to as many people as possible,” said Tony Hall, President, European Broadcasting Union.

"The effort is reminiscent of JournoList, which was a secret email list run by Vox’s Ezra Klein to coordinate pro-Obama messages. JournoList included dozens of progressive journalists, and even included Jared Bernstein, chief economist for then-Vice President Joe Biden.

"The “Trusted News Initiative” is JournoList on steroids."  More here...

The Timing of This COVID Study Is Pretty Interesting, Huh?

Townhall "So, now that Joe Biden is leading in the election, COVID is over. I mean, I’m, seeing people dancing in the streets right now. And indoor concerts may be made safe from COVID spread. Yes, that’s what dropped…right now. As Donald Trump Jr. and others noted, the “timing” is remarkable, right? Granted, this study has not been peer-reviewed, but it’s going to be fun watching all these COVID reversals now that a Democrat could occupy the White House. And IF Biden does win, the gaslighting on this will be epic (via The Hill):

Democrats Set to Reap What They Have Sown

 Conrad Black

"A waffling old cipher of a candidate is about to have the antics of his more robust partisans hung around his neck like a dead raccoon."

"The election as of Wednesday evening was on a knife’s edge, and the outcome remains unclear. At this point, Joe Biden leads. But if the votes are counted fairly, Trump is the more likely winner in Georgia, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Alaska, which would bring him to 268 electoral votes to Biden’s 264 votes. 

"If Arizona flips back to the Republicans or Nevada, where the candidates are only separated by 7,000 votes with a quarter of the vote yet to be counted, goes to Trump, then he wins. If neither event occurs, Biden apparently wins. But increasingly persistent and disquieting allegations of irregular treatment of late-mailed or delivered ballots are opening up the likelihood of massive contestation of results. 

"Even in these uncertain circumstances, there are a few conclusions that can already be made. The Trump-haters, including almost all of the American national political media, had drunk so much of their own bathwater that they expected the election to be over by 9 o’clock


Eastern time and were flabbergasted at the formidable performance of the president on Election Night.

"Even before the winner’s identity is known, it is not too soon to examine the trends this election amplifies and reveals. The change of roles between the Democrats and Republicans is accelerating as the Republicans encroach heavily upon the former working-class support of the Democrats and poach from their former preserves amongst the minorities, especially African Americans and Latino Americans." . . .
