Capt Gregory Prickett Epoch Times and Fox News? The video feed from Fox is from the politicians. Falun Gong/EPOCH are in prison in China so no empathy for the CCP.

MSgt Steve Sweeney yes, I have. I get Epoch Times for free. I downloaded the Google store Epoch Times. Capt Gregory Prickett I look at Each story. I look at RT. I look at Leftist Socialist Workers Party stories. I make my own conclusions.

LTC (Join to see) - "Overall, we rate The Epoch Times borderline Questionable and Right Biased based on editorial positions that consistently favor the right. We also rate them factually Mixed due to the publication of pseudoscience and the promotion of pro-Trump propaganda and conspiracy theories as well as failed fact checks."

That's because 1SG (Join to see) said of the "closed" cases which means the cases where: 1) someone recovered, and 2) someone died. It doesn't count the open cases where someone is still sick and you don't know if they will live or die.

I blame Trump for downplaying COVID-19 as it started to spread in the US. I blame his administration from taking a more active and timely role. I blame his administration for not implementing the use of roles and responsibilities to prepare for and mitigate against the pandemic.

Even as cases in the US were going up, Trump was telling us everything is fine. Trump, Fox News, and Rush should be blamed for deceiving the country with their rosy commentaries. We lacked the intelligence and understanding be proactive as the threat increased. It’s a simple concept. Our military bases use various THREATCON level commiserate with the threat. By the time we became serious, it showed that the pandemic was strong and growing, we had no plans, nobody provided credible unified leadership, and chaos ran supreme. There are indications the medical agencies in the federal government saw the risk and reported it to no avail.

The US has 2,000,000 civilian federal employees, but our total response to the pandemic was shit. We allowed the enemy into our formation before we got serious. The government needs to be accountable. In the early crucial moments we lacked competent leadership, planning was miserable, roles an responsibilities were ignored, and rational adult supervision was lacking. COVID-19 is on Trump and his administration. Here is some more damning information. DHS is chartered to provide a unified leadership to all federal entities, but the leader Trump appointed has absolutely no experience in that field. The man responsible for protecting the country from various threats had no clue about his roles, responsibilities, and leadership. That is on Trump. Trump has corrupted his administration by putting a premium on loyalty at the expense of experience many times.

The bottom line is the POTUS needs to grab the bull by the horn instead acting like he has god like powers to stop the pandemic. Those in the medical community sounding alarms should have been given more consideration. We had plans and mitigation but none were followed on a timely basis. (one example is PPE's and supplies should have been ordered sooner). Everything points back at leadership or the general lack of it. MSG Joseph Cristofaro

MSG Tom Earley - I agree with you. I am going back to the time I conducted a report of survey investigation of loss of property. I distinctly remember reading cause and effect. Who committed the action that directly impacted the loss. If a soldier left property in his car and locked it, but the property was stolen. Who directly caused the loss? It was the theif. Who directly caused the dismantling of the Pandemic Team? It was Trump and his administration.

MSG Tom Earley - I bet the people did not complain that received funds from cutting that committee. Two things are always in place in emergency and disaster management, 1) People do not want to pay for something that may never come and 2) When it comes, they blame other people for not preparing for them. We should raise everyone's taxes by $1500 and get a stock pile of ventilators, say enough to vent 10% of the population. Now we are also going to raise your taxes to increase nurses, techs, and docs to be on standby, say another $2000. Next time this hits, we will be so ready. Now see how many people agree to paying $3,500 in taxes for that. It is the same with the defense budget however after losing over 600,000 during the 20th century in wars, that hits a little closer to home and people are more willing to shell out those dollars.

MAJ Byron Oyler - The fact of the matter is, Trump nor the administration were intellectually capable of dealing with this pandemic. They made almost every mistake they could make. They were totally incompetent. Bush had Katrina. Trump has COVID-19.

CPT Jack Durish - Liar liar pants on fire.
