As the coronavirus engulfs the state of Florida and other states, it would be a great time for us here in Florida to hear from an expert like Dr. Fauci.

It is now clear that Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is just going to lie and spin the news about how bad it is in our state.

But, it appears that DeSantis’s s owner Donald Trump has put a muzzle on Dr. Fauci and his advice.

CBS Face the Nation host Margaret Brennan kicked off Sunday’s broadcast by informing viewers that the White House has been ignoring their requests to interview the administration’s public health experts.

“We are committed to bringing you the facts about the virus and the most knowledgeable guests that we can,” she said. “We think it’s important for our viewers to hear from Dr. Anthony Fauci and the Centers for Disease Control. But we have not been able to get our requests for Dr. Fauci approved by the Trump administration in the last three months, and the CDC—not at all. We will continue our efforts.”

In fact, Fauci last appeared on Face the Nation back in April.

I’m sorry, but ignoring COVID-19 is not going to make it go away.

And you might remember that Trump told us it will go away when the heat comes in. Well, Florida Is on fire and we are setting records daily on cases of the coronavirus.

Also, the next idiot that says, “well that’s because they are doing more testing” needs a slap in the mouth.

Check the percentages of positive tests compared to where they were just a couple of months ago.

Oh….and then do me a favor and….
