Rand Paul isn't a subliterate yawper like Trump. But he's spreading the same deadly coronavirus lies (via latimesopinion)
In a Senate hearing Tuesday, he faced down Anthony Fauci, immunologist and leader in President Trump’s coronavirus task force, on topics far from his specialty. In measured, professorial speech — a far cry from Trump’s subliterate yawps — Paul, who has, was disseminating the kind of lies that get people killed.
In 2014, Dr. Paul performed a similar stunt with Ebola. In those days, he cautioned against the governmentestimating the dangers of an outbreak in the U.S.. Talking to far-right pundit Laura Ingraham, Paul intoned, “This could get beyond our control” and blamed the Obama administration for “political correctness” in showing concern for the people of West Africa.
On Tuesday, from his bookish home office, Fauci — self-isolating after being exposed to the virus at the White House — told Congress that imprudent reopening during the COVID-19 pandemic could cause “needless suffering and death.”
