“Texas’s daily COVID-19 cases just passed Italy’s at the time it was the global epicenter of the pandemic, but Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick, who has said he would sacrifice his life for the economy, no longer wants the advice of the nation’s leading infectious disease expert, Dr. Anthony Fauci” Andy Towle reports.
“‘Locking down doesn’t work! If it did, those two states [California and New York] would be doing better than Texas. Fauci said today that he’s concerned about states like Texas that skipped over certain things. He doesn’t know what he’s talking about! We haven’t skipped over anything. The only thing I’m skipping over is listening to him. … He has been wrong every time on every issue. I don’t need his advice anymore.'”
