Birx Broke Her Own Recommendation to Limit Thanksgiving to ‘Immediate Household’
Some animals are more equal than others.
Dr. Deborah Birx of the White House COVID-19 team told Americans to limit Thanksgiving to “your immediate household.”
Yeah, Birx couldn’t follow her own advice. She traveled to a vacation home with three generations of her family the day after Thanksgiving.
Birx’s husband, daughter, son-in-law, and two young grandchildren went with her to a vacation property on Fenwick Island in Delaware.
Birx actually tried to explain her way out of this:
After The Associated Press raised questions about her Thanksgiving weekend travels, Birx acknowledged in a statement that she went to her Delaware property. She declined to be interviewed.
She insisted the purpose of the roughly 50-hour visit was to deal with the winterization of the property before a potential sale — something she says she previously hadn’t had time to do because of her busy schedule.
“I did not go to Delaware for the purpose of celebrating Thanksgiving,” Birx said in her statement, adding that her family shared a meal together while in Delaware.
Birx and her family may have found a way around the rule even though the CDC said families must consider college students returning home as members of different households:
Even in Birx’s everyday life, there are challenges meeting that standard. She and her husband have a home in Washington. She also owns a home in nearby Potomac, Maryland, where her elderly parents, and her daughter and family live, and where Birx visits intermittently. In addition, the children’s other grandmother, who is 77, also regularly travels to the Potomac house and returns to her 92-year-old husband near Baltimore.
Birx said that everyone on her Delaware trip belongs to her “immediate household,” even as she acknowledged they live in two different homes. She initially called the Potomac home a “3 generation household (formerly 4 generations).” White House officials later said it continues to be a four-generation household, a distinction that would include Birx as part of the home.
EXCUSE ME?! It doesn’t sound like people you regularly go home to at the end of the workday.
Oh, that’s because it doesn’t:
Kathleen Flynn, whose brother is married to Birx’s daughter who lives in the Potomac house, said she brought forward information about Birx’s situation out of concern for her own parents, and acknowledged family friction over the matter.
“She cavalierly violated her own guidance,” Flynn said of Birx.
Richard Flynn, her father, confirmed details of Birx’s Thanksgiving holiday gathering and visits to the Potomac house, but said he trusted the doctor and believes she’s doing what’s right. He said Birx’s visits to the house have occurred only every few weeks of late.
“Dr. Birx is very conscientious and a very good doctor and scientist from everything I can see,” Richard Flynn said during a recent interview.
If these people do not take this outbreak seriously, then why should we? I hope you’re celebrating Christmas with whomever you choose to be around.

The take way here is not that some people are more equal than others. The truly important point here is that an eminent epidemiologist does not view COVID as being particularly dangerous. Get it? The people who should know the most about these things treat this virus as a minor irritant, not the coming of the next Bubonic plague. Open the d**m world and let’s get back to living.
Time to take those criminals out of the U.S.
Drop them in the everglades, have more gator leather. Also consider putting them in shark infested waters, more shark meat. Another business opportunity might be to drop them in the desert, turning the jerks in jerky.
But won’t the SPCA complain?
LOL
I hope they do.

As we roll into 2021, I just wanted to remind everyone there’s ALWAYS a solution to every problem! So, cut through all the bullshit, and don’t let these people that don’t matter tell you how to live your life.

No surprise here. Whenever possible our “leaders” exempt themselves from what they impose on the general population. Obamacare? Not for congress or congressional staff.
And insider trading, and member of congress can be bribed with advance knowledge of corporate ups and downs.
I also took away that she’s got three houses.
She should be fired.
Electric or natural gas?
How about electric with LP, flood with liquid LP, instant frost byte, zap and a spark, followed with a weeny roast.
It came to me this weekend that the old head military leaders have investments in defense industries and therefore a clear conflict interest.
All of them 40 yo or over I’d say.

Now? She’ll get promoted.
Buts she has a scarf. For every day of the month.
You can’t make this stuff up.
I cannot manage clever graphics with just keyboard characters, so this is me,, giving her a single digit salute.
As long as regular everyday people keep their businesses closed, keep wearing masks, social distance and all the rest of the BS, the longer the “elites” will keep everything locked down while flouting their own “rules.” How many more examples do people need to see to understand they’re being lied to.
That’s a big part of the problem. They know they’re being lied to, but they’re mostly sheep who follow the shepherd (or retreat from the sheepdog) anyway.
I submit, the problem here is oligarchy itself. The phenomenon, oligarchy. A political party could get in position to make laws which enjoin oligarchy inside and outside government. A brief meditation on the subject:
Either repurpose the Republican Party to enjoin oligarchy, then rename it, or, commence a new political party with the purpose to enjoin oligarchy. Unless it has a clearly worthy purpose, a political party sideslips into self-serving, as Ds have done, taking R big cigars with them.
People work for Trump because he offers them a clearly worthy purpose, one more important than their egos. Several clearly worthy purposes in fact, but all drive to get GO / NGO oligarchs (The Swamp) off the citizens’ lawns and out of their homes. No one really wants to work for ego, theirs or anyone else’s, because everyone knows that ego is cruel to one and all, including themselves.
What is the cause, the clearly worthy purpose that beckons? The same as Trump offered, except on a larger scale. Enjoin oligarchy altogether. Put together the political party that passes the laws that enjoin oligarchy at all, inside and outside government, as a phenomenon.
Plenty of nominal Ds will join such a party and work well and hard for it. Political parties are necessary, but they are good only when dedicated to a clearly worthy purpose. There is no lawful reason the likes of Soros, Gates, Fauci, Brennan, Haspel, Zuckerberg, Schmidt, the WEF and CCP families, Arabella Advisors, Democracy Alliance, several hundred heiresses, a myriad NGOs, and their collective mercenaries (BLM, Antifa, etc.) are permitted to conspire to compel and harm American persons and properties.
There is the problem. There is the cause a new political party — say, The All American Party (?) — can forward to solve the problem. The solution is laws, enacted by a political party for the purpose, that enjoin oligarchy inside and outside of government.
I will be happy to be a member of the All American Party.
We need to abandon the GOP, forming a new party. Either that, or secede.
I fear it’s too late not to secede.
‘Birx Broke Her Own Recommendation to Limit Thanksgiving to ‘Immediate Household’’
Welcome to the scam.
Did you expect she would follow the rules made for the regular folks? I think not.
She’s a creep, just like Kamala.
Does anyone need any more evidence that this whole scamdemic has been nothing more than dempanic?
Hear Hear.
Now the Criminals and their loco media are rolling out the
BIG LIE 2.0 – MUTANTS!!!!!! OH MY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is the kind of thing where Trump could publicly dress her down and fire her, and pretty much everyone in the county (on both sides of the aisle) would say “It’s about dam time someone was held accountable!”
Too late now, we all know she and Fauci are frauds and just ignore them. Trump has more immediate problems caused by democrat criminals.
Yet everyone tolerates the hypocrisy and abuse and no one ever gets fired. What saps we are.
Or laying it wait with a BIG TRAP………
I gave the Fauxchi and Brix duo the benefit of the doubt for about a month. I don’t give a pronouncement from either of these two beauracrats any consideration at all now. Just like climate change, the people in charge telling you how to live don’t believe it enough to personally act on it.
I can hear her now. “Do you know who I am?!?”
Who is she? Josephine the Plumber????????

Ive said it so many times that it has become a cliché – –
Nothing to see here, folks. Move along.
These are very sleazy people. Arrogant as all hell.
Given their sleaze and arrogance, imagine how much money they are either stealing and/or receiving from bribes – from Communist China???
She got her payoff. She’ll move on to her new house in Florida.
Don’t buy this home winterzation excuse on bit
We need to “ winterize” our small businesses so they can do business and survive. Better, to thrive!
If it were the “pandemic” they claim it is, they would cower in their bunkers and follow all their “recommendations” to a tee. The fact that they don’t bother is proof that it’s all fake, their guidelines are pure theater, and they don’t believe the bullshit that flows out of their own mouths.
Quit living in fear, quit complying with the bullshit “recommendations,” and open up – no restrictions, no qualifications.
Not only is it not a lie, it is a ChiComm act of war, facilitated by treasonous America politicians. Cuomo, Newson, do blasio, garcetti, whitmer are at the forefront.
We knew she (and Phony Tony) lied daily starting with the statement months ago “all deaths must be counted as Covid deaths:. What despicable back-stabbers.
They’re all corrupt. They should hang.
