It is difficult to lead the way to a solution in dealing with this virus since the White House blocked Congressional testimony from the task force members. Yeah, Trumpie doesn't want the scientists to talk to Congress without him standing over their shoulders in a threatening way. He only cares about his optics and how he can survive the fact that this is the Trump Virus and that his inaction to safeguard Americans is now a Deathwish to us all especially with his urging just to lift lockdowns without any safety requirements in place to save lives.
Trump's blocking of scientists from testifying at Congressional hearings is reminiscent of when he also blocked witnesses from testifying at his Impeachment hearings. Trump should learn that by muzzling science and the truth, it will only prolong this health and economic crisis. Thank You Senator Chuck Schumer for leading both Democrats and Republicans in bipartinship votes to force Mitch to do what the American people need to be done.
Why is the White House blocking scientists to testify without a permission slip from the White House Chief of Staff? What are they hiding now? Trump hired the scientists as his task force and then tells them to shut up? This week Mitch has NO bills or discussions about the virus. Why? Our nation is dying literally!
At the White House daily press conferences reporters would ask pertinent questions and Trump would only insult them and cut them off. In Congress many questions could be asked and they would have to answer under oath. Despite Trump's blocking obstacle course to the truth , a lot of good things have been done with the persistence of the Democratic Congressional members.
They have passed Covid Legislations. They are passing money for state and local governments for survival since their state taxes are being gone without businesses open. They are passing hero's pay for the medical community who are volunteering from other states to cover their out of pocket costs to help in the fight against death. Passing housing relief for folks who can't pay their housing costs after 3 months.
The only thing Mitch wants to do is to forgive corporate owners from liability if Americans want to sue them for wrongful death due to lack of safety precautions at the workplace. Helping wealthy corporate owners from liability does not help our dying Americans being forced to work without testing and protective gear.
Democrats have passed testing priorities, with Covid 3 and Covid 3.5. Money for testing, testing in the states, contact tracing, provide the supply lines for the manufacturing needed for tests. We need the Democrats because they make America great.
