Tour2ma Posted April 2, 2020 Report Share Posted April 2, 2020 Guess the wikileaks memo's circulation wasn't restricted to the Browns Board... .... or was it??? After Threats, Anthony Fauci to Receive Enhanced Personal Security Dr. Fauci has become a target of online conspiracy theorists after advocating social distancing rules. By Katie Benner and Michael D. Shear April 1, 2020 WASHINGTON — Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, the nation’s leading expert on infectious diseases, who has become a regular at President Trump’s coronavirus briefings, will receive enhanced personal security after receiving threats following his repeated pleas for Americans to help slow the spread of the deadly pandemic, officials said on Wednesday. Dr. Fauci has been the Trump administration’s most outspoken advocate of social distancing rules that have shuttered the nation’s schools, forced businesses to close, kept people in their homes and battered the United States economy. That has made him a target of online conspiracy theorists who have accused Dr. Fauci, a longtime scientist and civil servant who has served presidents of both parties, of trying to undermine Mr. Trump during a year in which the president is fighting for re-election. The Department of Health and Human Services granted the enhanced personal security for Dr. Fauci, 79, after the Justice Department signed off on a request for extra agents to guard him, officials said. Alex M. Azar II, the health and human services secretary, had grown worried that the threats against the doctor were increasing as more of the country shut down in response to the coronavirus. “Yesterday, upon the recommendation of the U.S. Marshals Service, the department approved the special deputization request from H.H.S. for nine H.H.S.-O.I.G. special agents to provide protective services for Dr. Fauci,” the Justice Department said in a statement, referring to the Office of the Inspector General at the health department. The Washington Post first reported the news of the enhanced security. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/01/us/politics/coronavirus-fauci-security.html?action=click&module=Spotlight&pgtype=Homepage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westside Steve Posted April 2, 2020 Report Share Posted April 2, 2020 I hesitate to use the term you guys but doesn't it seem like this pops up an awful lot when "some people" like to pretend there's a bigger insurgence among far-right terrorist lurking in the shadows then there really is? Usually, and this happens from both sides when they're trying to shake up the Great unwashed, stories like this are accompanied by vague reports of death threats.

WSS It was a recommendation from the US Marshalls Service Steve. It didn't just come out of thin air. They don't pick a side, just look at the threats before offering an action plan.

WSS The only difference is, this isn't really an opinion piece and can be confirmed from multiple sources. Threats must be deemed credible as well. So that is the impressive, if not most troubling part. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So let's say you are right there's some vast Pro Trump alt right conspiracy looking to kill the good doctor. Shouldn't be that fucking hard to track down where these threats come from an arrest people right? And if it's too tough that's a poor showing from the Marshalls isn't it?

WSS I'm sure the "more" credible threats probably will face charges. I presume you'll be taking this 'vague boogie man' and applying it with consistency among the threads you have and will continue to see of "mass leftist" violence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Engineer Arrested For Derailing Train Near USNS Mercy, Claimed Ship Part Of ‘Government Takeover’ Syndicated Local – CBS Los Angeles - 4 hrs ago According to the complaint, Moreno ran the train off the tracks before crashing through a series of barriers, ultimately coming to rest more than 250 yards from the Mercy. Prosecutors say a a California Highway Patrol officer witnessed the crash before he took Moreno into custody as he fled the scene. The CHP officer who witnessed the crash reported seeing “the train smash into a concrete barrier at the end of the track, smash into a steel barrier, smash into a chain-link fence, slide through a parking lot, slide across another lot filled with gravel, and smash into a second chain-link fence,” according to the affidavit in support of the criminal complaint. According to court documents, Moreno allegedly told the CHP officer, “You only get this chance once. The whole world is watching. I had to. People don’t know what’s going on here. Now they will.” https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/engineer-arrested-for-derailing-train-near-usns-mercy-claimed-ship-part-of-government-takeover/ar-BB122Sbm?ocid=spartandhp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People keep pestering me to do one of those Facebook in-home concerts but I just don't have the time. I have at least seven people involved in this project so far and it's a rare occasion anybody records together. Haha. I really am hoping to have it in the can by the end of next week. Of course Human Nature kicks in, if everybody isn't in the same room people will take the opportunity to fuck off. Not to brag but some of this is the best work I've ever done.
