Dr. Anthony Fauci held a 4am teleconference with the @WHO, which President Biden just rejoined yesterday with an Executive Order.

Fauci will also be part of today's press briefing.

First day of the new administration. Fauci is where he belongs: leading.
The Biden-Harris administration is making #COVID19 its central focus. Which the Trump administration should have done a year ago. The US is only 4% of the global population and 26% of the deaths from #COVID19. That didn't have to happen.

#NEW
The details of the Trump administration's #COVID19 plan reveals there is no actual plan.

This will further impede the new administration as it centers controlling the virus.
Chilling thought: How many would have died if Trump had succeeded in overturning the election?

Hey--remember that time Meghan McCain cried on Joe Biden's shoulder on @TheView after her father died and Biden comforted her like he does? Well today, she's trashing him for not wearing a mask while he gave a speech in an empty part of the Capitol.
Pretty sure Biden is socially distanced here and he usually removes his mask when he gives a speech.

Stop thinking these people are our friends. Image
And never forget that it was Meghan McCain's husband, founder of The Federalist, who created the "Kamala is a cop" meme and monetized it, selling T-shirts. Image

Not one senator on either side has asked about Austin being on the board of Raytheon. Quite the lapse.
No sooner do I mention it and Warren raises it. Good.
Austin agrees to be "mindful of ethics on this issue" of the links between the DOD and the defense industry.

I was on the Pompeo beat in 2020 and Pompeo's remaking of State and his dangerous reframing of USAID has linked the US with some of the world's worst actors.

Pompeo, Who Led Trump’s Mission at State Dept., Leaves With a Dubious Legacy nytimes.com/2021/01/18/us/…
Pompeo created a "human rights panel" and used it to subvert the work of USAID, a I wrote here.

Pompeo’s Human Rights Panel Subverts LGBT and Women’s Rights epgn.com/2020/06/23/pom…
Pompeo used USAID and its $40B budget to promote his own ideologies abroad & label them as US policy as I explained here. Biden and Blinken may not even know the breadth of what Pompeo has done via USAID,

THREAD📌 Since Jan. 20, 2017, I have been terrorized by the Trump presidency as a lesbian, as a #disabled person, as a journalist. I have reported hundreds of stories of how marginalized groups in particluar have been harmed by Trump's policies, even in his final days.
1/
I have reported on the uptick in poverty under Trump, particularly among women and LGBTQ people. I have written relentlessly about #healthcare and how each year under Trump fewer Americans had access to it and more people were bankrupted and having to crowdfund medical bills.
2/
I have written about violence against POC: the relentlessness of it. The anti-Black animus. The hatred of brown immigrants--even babies. I have reported on the way Trump and his extremist white nationalist cohort have stoked violence from Charlottesville to the Insurrection.

Also, Facebook deleted a post by Majorie Taylor Greene in which she threatened the lives of AOC and Ayanna Pressley, holding a gun to their photos.

Twitter temporarily suspends Marjorie Taylor Greene over 'multiple' policy violations thehill.com/policy/technol…
Also, Marjorie Taylor Greene is a member of the new QAnon Caucus of the GOP that was just elected in November and which supported overturning the 2020 election. This was Greene at the impeachment hearings.
For the skeptics:

I want to see an actual photo of Greeson at Obama's Inauguration. It was like 5° that day (remember how everyone slammed Beyoncé for lip-synching?). I don't see a trajectory from standing for 6hrs in frigid cold, listening to the line up that day to dying for Trump.
There is no actual indicator in this piece of what the people interviewed claim--that they drifted GOP from Democrats. Alabama hasn't voted non-GOP since it went for George Wallace in 1968. And Greeson called for the death of Obama on Parler. And for the death of Pelosi.
Fox news was too mainstream for him as was Facebook. Greeson was all in on Parler and Newsmax. Others quoted claim that the ACA changed things, which is flat out lunacy, since the ACA provided more access to healthcare than Alabama had had since LBJ created Medicare and Medicaid.
