    There was a theory that Israel, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey(with some help from the us) were supporters of ISIS. Why did ISIS never attack Israel?

    Caputo appears to be in need of serious mental health counseling.

    Caputo apologizes to HHS staff, signals desire for medical leave

    excerpt:

    "Caputo has spent days battling with critics who attacked him and Alexander for pressuring government scientists to shift their messages. In a tweet on Caputo’s since-deleted personal account after the CDC report, he wrote “I'm Effective," the tweet reads. "Get used to it." Caputo’s personal account disappeared Monday.

    On Sunday, Caputo took to Facebook Live to level a series of wild and false accusations that warned of an armed insurrection after the election and asserted without evidence that public health officials were trying to undermine Trump’s reelection bid.

    Several people inside and outside the administration subsequently raised concerns to Azar and the White House about the Facebook Live video."

    Worse is the fact that Caputo sounds like a milder version of Trump.

    Smoke from west coast fires has moved across country to the east coast. It has given skies that should have been clear an overcast appearance.

    Meanwhile, after once again denying the science of climate change ("It will get cooler. You just watch."), Trump is still promoting his Rake America Great Again as a remedy for another calamity that has happened during his term that he ignored for weeks.


    Wildfire smoke from Oregon, western fires spreads east across U.S.

    The smoke has drifted to Washington, DC.



    Smoke in D.C.’s skies traveled thousands of miles from the West Coast

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2020/09/15/wildfire-smoke-dc-maryland-virginia/

    excerpt:

    "Glancing skyward into a milky-orange haze, you may be noticing a dimmed sun in our skies. That haze is from the massive Western wildfires. It’s just a very small taste of what California, Oregon and Washington state have been dealing with.

    Carried along by the jet stream, the swift river of winds about 20,000 to 30,000 feet aloft, the thick smoke arrived Monday on the East Coast, including the D.C. area. It will stick around through at least Thursday. While it promises more surreal skies, effects on the ground are expected to be minimal."

    I'm not nearly as far away as D.C., but here in Oklahoma we had our dark sky, red sun, and soot all over my car.

    I wonder how many who don't wear a mask because the virus is a hoax will now wear a mask because smoke isn't.

    Caputo says his “mental health has definitely failed," or as he put it, He’s seeing “shadows on the ceiling in my apartment, there alone, shadows are so long.”...lol.....

    This is the guy who's ultimately in control of all the info CDC puts out. “You understand that they’re going to have to kill me" . "And when Donald Trump refuses to stand down at the inauguration, the shooting will begin. The drills that you’ve seen are nothing.” “If you carry guns, buy ammunition, ladies and gentlemen, because it’s going to be hard to get.” I'm no shrink, but the guy sounds like a paranoid schiz.

    In Trump's mind, Caputo was the right person for the job. No experience in healthcare and delusional in his support for Trump.

    Trump appointed Caputo in April 2020.



    Trump Aide Michael Caputo Apologizes for Unhinged Attack on CDC

    excerpt:

    "In a video he posted to his personal Facebook page, Caputo decried the negative attention he was receiving; insisted, “I am not going anywhere”; and claimed that scientists “deep in the bowels of the CDC have given up science and become political animals” who “haven’t gotten out of their sweatpants except for meetings at coffee shops” to plot “how they’re going to attack Donald Trump.” The Times reports that Caputo said the agency “was riddled with anti-Trump researchers who ‘walk around like they are monks’ and ‘holy men’ but engage in ‘rotten science.’”

    The political operative, who has no background in health care or science, accused the CDC scientists of “sedition” and made the outrageous allegation — again without any evidence, because there isn’t any — that the scientists were deliberately acting against the country’s public health as a “resistance unit” within the agency.

    “There are scientists who work for this government who do not want America to get well, not until after Joe Biden is president,” Caputo reportedly warned, adding that, “to allow people to die so that you can replace the president is a grievous venial sin, venial sin. And these people are all going to hell.”

    Furthermore, Caputo predicted an armed insurrection against President Trump, suggesting he himself might become a target and casualty. “You understand that they’re going to have to kill me, and unfortunately, I think that’s where this is going,” the 58-year-old told his Facebook followers, also noting that his “mental health has definitely failed”:"

    Trump Aide Michael Caputo Apologizes for Unhinged Attack on CDC

    excerpt:

    "Trump installed Caputo in April after weighing whether to fire Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar over a series of damaging stories about Trump’s handling of the pandemic, according to three current and former White House officials who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe behind-the-scenes discussions. Allies persuaded Trump to not make such a change amid a pandemic, but instead to bring in Caputo, the officials said."

    Senior Trump Aide Goes On Deranged Rant, Says Scientists Are Working for “Deep State”

    excerpt:

    "Early this year, Caputo came under fire for a series of racist tweets regarding Chinese people and the virus Trump has consistently labelled the “China virus.” In March, he wrote, “millions of Chinese suck the blood out of rabid bats as an appetizer and eat the ass out of anteaters.” As my colleague Bess Levin observed, Caputo did not issue an apology but instead stood by his comments as a show of support and loyalty to the White House. In his Sunday rant, he complained of being under a media attack and that his “mental health has definitely failed.” He also spoke of sinister forces at play in Washington—“shadows on the ceiling in my apartment, there alone, shadows are so long”—that made him fearful of staying in the nation’s capital alone."

    Senior Trump Aide Goes On Deranged Rant, Says Scientists Are Working for “Deep State”

    excerpt;

    "Though he has no background in health or science, Caputo was tapped to become assistant secretary of public affairs at the Department of Health and Human Services in April, two months after Trump told the American public that COVID-19 would “disappear.” He essentially leads an 80,000-person department that is the heart of the country’s public health unit, which includes the Food and Drug Administration, the CDC, and the National Institutes of Health. Since his appointment, Caputo has crafted a narrative that supports Trump’s claims of the virus being under control, even as CDC Director Robert Redfield has said it would be “prudent to assume this pathogen will be with us for some time to come.”"

    Trump Says COVID-19 Will End Thanks to 'Herd Mentality' (Video)

    excerpt:

    "Meanwhile, medical experts think it’s unlikely that herd immunity can be achieved without a vaccine — or severe loss of life. It’s estimated that to stem the spread of the virus, around 70% of the population would need to be exposed to COVID-19. And if that happens without a vaccine, it means all of those people would actually have to get sick. And given the current death rate for COVID-19, that means nearly 3 million Americans could be killed."
