Dr. Birx and Fauci both seem to be taking lessons....

And laying the responsibility at the feet of governors, lying about the availability of test or rather allowing Trump to lie about that and not correcting the statement.

Go ahead, keep your jobs and the book deals that will result. Selling your soul isn't that hard I guess.
