Is this a new thing, or are you that insecure?

Dr. Anthony Fauci now has a security detail due to death threats. In the category of, “What kind of weird shit is happening next on this timeline,” cue the ultra-right masses. These crazy fuckers are upset that Dr. Fauci performed a now-famous facepalm when the President provided grossly inaccurate information in a presser a few days ago.

Our lovely friends think this pandemic came about to hurt Trump’s re-election effort. Yeah, because with hundreds of thousands that will get sick and thousands that will die, we are all worried that Donnie, the douchebag will not get re-elected.

Wa-Po has the story here (paywall warning)

Anthony S. Fauci, the nation’s top infectious-diseases expert and the face of the U.S. response to the novel coronavirus pandemic, is facing growing threats to his personal safety, prompting the government to step up his security, according to people familiar with the matter.

The concerns include threats as well as unwelcome communications from fervent admirers, according to people with knowledge of deliberations inside the Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of Justice.

Fauci, 79, is the most outspoken member of the administration in favor of sweeping public health guidelines and is among the few officials willing to correct President Trump’s misstatements. Along with Deborah Birx, the coordinator for the White House’s task force, Fauci has encouraged the President to extend the timeline for social-distancing guidelines, presenting him with grim models about the possible toll of the pandemic.

Okay, folks, this is the hallmark of stupid people. Yeah, I said it. I am sorry that you don’t like to hear that but killing the messenger because he gives a grim message or corrects the President. Ya know the same guy that thinks he’s a picture of health.

Yeah, stay in your lane there hairballs. I would be fucking shocked to find one M.D., PA, or N.P. that would think that Fauci is providing incorrect information or info designed to “damage” Donnie’s credibility.

You know Donnie, the guy that throws out random “treatments” that is idiot base follows for god knows whatever reason.

I am going to type this slow since I know some folks aren’t reading this too fast, but I would rather have Dr. Fauci tell me what the fuck is happening and provide forecasts than have an ill-informed game show host do this. The game show host that worried a few weeks ago about the P.R. implications of this pandemic, not the loss of lives of the people he was “elected” to govern.

Throughout this, up until this point, the administration has done its damnedest to control the information flow. With the P.R. spin from Donnie, the guy that barely passed college, trying to make it looks like his administration gives a rats ass when it doesn’t and trying to prescribe treatments when he can barely follow his doctor’s recommendations for his health. All they care about is lulling their idiot base into believing that Donnie is handling this, and it is the Democrats and Obama’s fault. Yup, still using that tired talking point. Yeah, I said idiot, because if you believe that this is some democrat conspiracy, dreamed up at Hillary’s pizzeria, you don’t think for yourself much.

At the briefings, Fauci, who has advised presidents of both parties as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, has spoken authoritatively about the spread of the coronavirus and the sacrifices involved in mitigating its effects.

“The president was right, and frankly, Fauci was wrong,” Lou Dobbs said last week on his show on the Fox Business Network, referring to the use of experimental medicine.

Oh Lou, what the fuck do you know, other than like Donnie you are a ratings whore. That is all this is to you assholes is a ratings game. Not everyone who gets this is going to die, but a good few will. You are part of the problem and should have that phony fucking wig ripped off your head.

Right-wing news and opinion sites have gone further, launching baseless smears against the doctor that have gained significant traction within pro-Trump communities online.

The headline in the American Thinker referred to Fauci as a “Deep-State ­Hillary Clinton-loving stooge.” The author, Peter Barry Chowka, didn’t respond to requests for comment. When asked about the relevance of Fauci’s emails to his role in advising the White House’s coronavirus response, Jim Hoft, the editor of the Gateway Pundit, said, “I don’t have a problem with more information being shared about the doctor.”

I don’t have a problem with more information being shared about the doctor? Mr. Hoft, there is a good bit of information out there about you. People in glasshouses would be what I have to say, but then you don’t care, do you? Promote fear and make the senseless masses (including Donnie) read your daily tripe.

Look fuckers, leave Dr. Fauci the fuck alone and let the man continue to do the stellar job he has done during this and other public health crises. Go talk about other shit and join the rest of us in stopping this virus and the potential bad outcomes.

Be the kind of person your dog and your mother hope you are.
