“After more than 40 years in the public health arena, it might surprise some of my colleagues to know I think President Trump chose the right man for the job: Robert Kennedy, Jr.,” writes Dr. Robert Redfield, former Director of the CDC, in an earth-shattering op-ed for Newsweek that blames processed foods, pesticides, and pharma's financial priorities for America's chronic health epidemic. “It's time to make America healthy again,” he continues. “Kennedy is right: All three of the principal health agencies suffer from agency capture… And as the former director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), I know the agency can be influenced by special interest groups.” Dr. Robert Redfield is a virologist, infectious disease expert, and former Director of the CDC. He served on the White House Coronavirus Task Force and Operation Warp Speed board.

In March 2020, health care technologist Amy Gleason had a daunting task ahead of her. She was a new member of the White House Coronavirus Task Force's data team, and it was her job to figure out where people were testing positive for COVID-19 across the country, how many were in hospitals, and how many had died from the disease. Gleason was shocked to find that data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention wasn't reflecting the immediate impact of the coronavirus. At the same time, the country was suffering from another huge shortfall: a lack of COVID-19 tests. The task force also faced national shortages of medical supplies like masks and ventilators and lacked basic information about COVID-19 hospitalizations that would help them know where to send supplies. Realizing that the federal government was failing to collect national data, reporters at The Atlantic formed The COVID Tracking Project. Across all 50 states, hundreds of volunteers began gathering crucial information on the number of cases, deaths, and hospitalizations. Each day, they compiled the state COVID-19 data in a massive spreadsheet, creating the nation's most reliable picture of the spread of the deadly disease.  This week on Reveal: The second episode of our three-part series asks why there was no good federal data about COVID-19. This Peabody Award-nominated series is hosted by epidemiologist Jessica Malaty Rivera and reported by Artis Curiskis and Kara Oehler from The COVID Tracking Project at The Atlantic. This is an update of an episode that originally aired in April 2023.   Support Reveal's journalism at Revealnews.org/donatenow Subscribe to our weekly newsletter to get the scoop on new episodes at Revealnews.org/newsletter Connect with us on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram

Can we have science without freedom of speech? Dr. Scott Atlas's professional work and personal experiences bring to light an important and often under-discussed element of speech: freedom of speech in the hard sciences. The COVID-19 pandemic ushered in a host of new questions and concerns surrounding our medical system and government health agencies: as Special Advisor to the President and a member of the White House Coronavirus Task Force from July to December 2020, Dr. Atlas was at the forefront of such debates. In this conversation, he discusses the importance of debate not only to science itself but also to popular trust in and support of the sciences, which since the pandemic have suffered a steep decline. Dr. Scott Atlas, MD, is the Robert Wesson Senior Fellow in health care policy at the Hoover Institution of Stanford University and the co-director of the Global Liberty Institute. In addition to his role in White House he has served as Senior Advisor for Health Care to several numerous candidates for President, as well as counselled members of the U.S. Congress on health care, testified before Congress, and briefed directors of key federal agencies. Before his appointment at Hoover Institution, he was a Professor and Chief of Neuroradiology at Stanford University Medical Center for 14 years, and he received his medical degree from the University of Chicago School of Medicine. He is the author of numerous books, most recently A Plague Upon Our House: My Fight at the Trump White House to Stop COVID from Destroying America. Here is the Cochrane Library analysis on masking mentioned during the interview. Annika Nordquist is the Communications Coordinator of Princeton University's James Madison Program in American Ideals and Institutions and host of the Program's podcast, Madison's Notes.

In 2023, 83-year old Dr. Anthony Fauci retired as the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, a job he'd held for 38 years. Once called “America's Doctor,” Dr. Fauci had often been vilified for his role on the White House Coronavirus Task Force under President Donald Trump. In the past year, Dr. Fauci's critics have only gotten louder. In his book on the scientist, Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., a staunch anti-vaxxer, wrote, “I think he is a genuinely bad human being.”  I caught up with Dr. Fauci to find out why he thinks he's the target of right-wing conspiracy theories, anger and even hatred. ”Now What?” is produced with the help of Steve Zimmer, Lucy Little and Jackie Schwartz. Audio production is by Nick Ciavatta.

While a government shutdown has been averted for the second time this year, the pattern of continuing resolutions (CRs) is still impacting military service members, civilian federal workers and their families. The focus can often be on the numbers and getting funding passed, but appropriations and continuing resolutions have a human impact too. The Defense Department impact For example, during the 2013 shutdown that impacted the Defense Department, it not only affected service members, but also DoD civilians, said John Polowczyk, an executive director at Ernst and Young and a retired Navy Rear Admiral, who also was the supply chain lead on the White House Coronavirus Task Force and Joint Staff vice director for logistics. “The Navy is a multi-dimensional team and people forget about the role the civilian employees play,” Polowczyk told Federal News Network.

For many Americans, trust in public health agencies at multiple levels of government has been destroyed after years of COVID-related mistakes and dishonesty that destroyed jobs, affected the economy, and delayed the education of millions of children Dr. Scott Atlas discusses his recent article on rebuilding trust in the institutions, saying those institutions - including the CDC - have the burden of proving they are trustworthy. That can only happen, he says, if changes are made in multiple parts of the public health process. Scott W. Atlas, M.D., is a senior fellow at Stanford University's Hoover Institution; co-director of the Global Liberty Institute; former advisor to the president and member, White House Coronavirus Task Force; and author of “A Plague Upon Our House: My Fight at the Trump White House to Stop COVID From Destroying America” https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2023/10/30/todays_public_health_emergency_restoring_trust_with_seven_steps_149983.html

This episode features Dr. Brett Giroir, CEO of Altesa BioSciences, a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical firm working to develop new medications for viral respiratory infections with a focus on vulnerable populations. And Dr. Giroir knows plenty about infections, having served as the COVID-19 “testing tsar” on the White House Coronavirus Task Force. In this episode, Dr. Giroir describes how his interest in immunology and infectious disease in medical school led to vaccine research and related clinical practice, which led in turn to serving the nation in various roles (and at one point this included a top-secret clearance).“I do believe you're put here for a purpose,” Dr. Giroir says. “And looking back on all the chance events that came into my life, I think that's what it all meant.”

John Hopkins infection disease expert Dr. Mark Markary spoke before the White House Coronavirus Task Force members on May 8, 2023 to assess how the U.S. responded overall to the pandemic, and what we should learn as vital to preventing more deaths in future pandemics. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/james-watkins9/support

This is the second episode in our three-part series taking listeners inside the failed federal response to COVID-19. In episode two, series host Jessica Malaty Rivera, along with reporters Artis Curiskis and Kara Oehler, asks a profound question: Why was there no good U.S. data about COVID-19?  In March 2020, White House Coronavirus Task Force coordinator Dr. Deborah Birx had a daunting task for healthcare technologist Amy Gleason, a new member of her data team. Her job was to figure out where people were testing positive for COVID-19 across the country, how many were in hospitals and how many had died from the disease. Accounting for national numbers about the disease was extremely difficult, because when COVID-19 hit, the federal government had no system set up to get data from each state.  Gleason was shocked to find that data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention wasn't reflecting the immediate impact of the coronavirus. At the same time, the country was suffering from another huge shortfall: a lack of COVID-19 tests. As a congressional hearing in March 2020 clearly exposed, the CDC had created only 75,000 tests and had no plans to create the millions needed to make testing available nationwide. Dr. Birx and the Task Force also faced national shortages of medical supplies like masks and ventilators and lacked basic information about COVID-19 hospitalizations that would help them know where to send supplies.  Realizing that the federal government was failing to collect national data, reporters at The Atlantic formed The COVID Tracking Project. Across all 50 states, hundreds of volunteers began gathering crucial information on the number of cases, deaths and hospitalizations. Each day, they compiled the state COVID-19 data in a massive spreadsheet, creating the nation's most reliable picture of the spread of the deadly disease.

A substantial portion of United States policymakers and citizens tout an accelerated "energy transition" away from fossil fuels. But what does this mean? What would it entail? What are the costs associated with such a transition? And is a transition even practical or realistic? Even if the United States (or the world) were to transition away from fossil fuels entirely for electricity generation, in what other ways do fossil fuels play an integral role in modern living? These questions and many more are answered in this episode of Common Sense Digest. Chairman and Host of Common Sense Institute Earl Wright welcomes Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Liberty Oilfield Services Chris Wright and 2022 Mike A. Leprino Fellow & 2021 Terry J. Stevinson Fellow Evelyn Lim to the show to discuss the multiple factors at play regarding an energy transition. The three touch on issues including the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the state of permitting and exports in the United States, regulatory policy in the country and in Colorado specifically, and the ways in which fossil fuels impact our lives beyond electricity generation. For more illustrative information on these topics and more, please review Evelyn Lim's "Colorado Faces Economic, Technological, and Even Geopolitical Barriers to Meeting Its Aggressive Greenhouse Gas Emission Reduction Goals" and Liberty Energy's "Bettering Human Lives: 2020 ESG Report" Thank you for listening to Common Sense Digest.

Healing Our Hearts After the COVID Isolation with World-Renowned Psychiatrist Peter Breggin MD and Ginger Ross Breggin Renowned Physician Exposes the Organized Individuals and Groups Behind COVID-19 Coercion and Scientific Fraud on a Global Scale. Since January 2020, authors Peter R Breggin MD and Ginger Ross Breggin worked fulltime for 18 months examining the real science surrounding COVID-19 and criticizing the fraudulent science used to justify the suppression of personal and political liberty throughout the world. Their extensive research is a wakeup call like no other to rescue freedom around the world. COVID-19 and the Global Predators documents the shocking corruption behind the pandemic catastrophe and shatters the perception that it was an unintended mishap. The Breggins detail the motivations, conflicts of interest and deceitful collaborations of the major players behind draconian pandemic policies leading to what they describe as the suppression of our personal freedoms. They disclose for the first time the 2015-2016 master plan created by Bill Gates and Klaus Schwab working with leading health officials in the U.S., the U.N., and WHO as well as billionaires, international corporations, and Chinese Communist officials. They unearth a global governance bent on predation. “No other book than COVID-19 and the Global Predators so comprehensively covers the details of COVID-19 criminal conduct as well as its origins in a network of global predators seeking wealth and power at the expense of human freedom and prosperity, under cover of false public health policies.”  ~Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., author of The Real Anthony Fauci The book has separate stirring Introductions by three of the world's leading COVID-19 physicians: Peter McCullough MD, MPH; Vladimir "Zev" Zelenko MD; and Elizabeth Lee Vliet MD. The book has strong endorsements from Robert F Kennedy, Jr. (above) and Paul Alexander PhD, former consultant to the White House Coronavirus Task Force and the World Health Organization (WHO), who says its “depth and reach is beyond reproach . . . the most detailed, scientific and rational analysis to date . . . stunningly comprehensive and broad.” COVID-19 and the Global Predators concludes with hopeful and inspiring messages, a call to courage, and examples and guidance about how we can retake our freedom worldwide personally and politically. The Breggins conclude, “We must revive our trust in each other. We must strengthen our belief in loving one another and in supporting each other's liberty.” Tune in to see and hear a rallying cry for an end to the oppressive climate of fear and a return to love, liberty and truth, as we discuss the new book from COVID-19 experts and lifelong reformers Peter Breggin MD and Ginger Ross Breggin. Peter R. Breggin MD and Ginger Ross Breggin's book, COVID-19 and the Global Predators: We Are the Prey, published in November 2021. It is available on Amazon and other online bookstores worldwide and can be purchased directly from them at a discount, only in the United States at www.WeAreThePrey.com. Bio: Peter R. Breggin MD is a lifelong reformer, called “The Conscience of Psychiatry” for his criticism of biological psychiatry and his advocacy for effective, empathic, and ethical forms of psychological, educational, and social approaches to emotional and psychological distress. He graduated from Harvard College with Honors and his psychiatric training included a Teaching Fellowship at Harvard Medical School. He then became a Full Time Consultant in at the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH). Since then, he has taught at several universities, including Johns Hopkins, George Mason, the University of Maryland, as well as the Washington School of Psychiatry. He has been a medical expert in over 100 trials, many related to scientific issues in this book, and is now an expert in COVID-19 cases. He has authored 70 scientific articles, plus many medical books and bestsellers, including Talking Back to Prozac with his wife Ginger Breggin. Bio: Ginger Ross Breggin is also a lifelong reformer. She has been an editor of newspapers and magazines, and has a background in publishing and public relations. She has been Dr. Breggin's partner in all his reform work since they married in 1984. She has coauthored or coedited four of his 20+ books, including Talking Back to Prozac which sold almost one million copies, and has helped develop and edit several others. In 2009, she edited and published The Conscience of Psychiatry: The Reform Work of Peter R. Breggin, MD, based on testimonials and media reports about her husband's first 54 years (1954-2009) of efforts to improve his profession and to advocate for the rights of patients. Ginger manages most of their outreach and keeps in touch with innumerable individual leaders and groups involved in the treatment of COVID-19 and the movement to reinspire and to rescue freedom throughout the world. Ginger Ross Breggin has a background in journalism, book editing, bookmaking, and book publishing. Since 1984, she has partnered with Peter as a coauthor, writer, editor, researcher, organization administrator, advisor, and communicator with the outside world. When hints of a possible new pandemic reached the U.S. in January 2020, Ginger redirected her attention to researching what would be called SARS - CoV-2 . She soon recognized the significance of an obscure reference to a paper published in 2015 in Nature Medicine. It was titled, “A SARS-like cluster of circulating bat coronaviruses shows potential for human emergence.” It documented that the U.S. had been collaborating with Chinese researchers at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in gain-of-function research—making lethal viruses very similar to SARS-CoV-2. With her husband, they set aside their normal lives and began work on the pandemic, digging deep into the tragedy of the world's response to COVID-19. Along with her husband Peter, Ginger is a member of several COVID-19 medical and science groups, including the international Doctors for Covid Ethics (D4CE) and the U.S.-based C19 Group which focuses upon early treatments for COVID-19, ongoing research, and the effects of government policies. Ginger is the coauthor of several books with Peter, including their bestseller Talking Back to Prozac (1994) and The War Against Children of Color: Psychiatry Targets Inner City Youth (1998). She is a coeditor of Dimensions of Empathic Therapy. Ginger designed and published Peter's book, Wow, I'm an American: How to Live Like Our Nation's Heroic Founders. She edited and published The Conscience of Psychiatry: The Reform Work of Peter R. Breggin, MD. She has researched, edited, and coauthored many blogs with him on the issues in Covid-19 and the Global Predators: We Are the Prey. Ginger inspired and cofounded with her husband the peer-reviewed scientific journal Ethical Human Psychology and Psychiatry, which she managed for many years. As a freshman undergraduate at American University, she was given an annual honors award for the best social sciences paper for all levels of the university. She is also an award-winning photographer. From 1988-2002, she was the Executive Director of Peter's original nonprofit reform center, the International Center for the Study of Psychiatry and Psychology (ICSPP). In 2010, she cofounded a new reform nonprofit organization with her husband called The Center for the Study of Empathic Therapy, for which she is the executive director. She also works with her husband on his websites and produces his videos and his radio/TV show, The Dr. Peter Breggin Hour.

As we discussed in the episode, this unique and memorable day is engrained in the minds and hearts of every American whether you were born on that day or not. Furthermore these attacks have shaped the way Americans do things from taking a flight to the amount of privacy or civil liberties they may be forfeiting in the name of national defense. The discussion then turns to Afghanistan and the countless number of lives and money that has been expended and why it's too early to tell if this pull out will be remembered as a good decision or not by the Biden Administration.

Former President Trump might be out of the White House, but he still has a hold on the Republican Party in ways that are trivial so many conservatives. One such conservative is  Olivia Troye, who is the daughter of immigrants and was raised with conservative values. Her career has taken her all over the world and her experience in national security landed her a job in the Trump Administration. Her assignment in the White House was in the Office of the Vice President of the United States as the Homeland Security and Counterterrorism advisor to Vice President Mike Pence and she also served on the White House Coronavirus Task Force as Pence's lead staffer on the Task Force. Olivia chats with Will and Josh about her career and the decision to ultimately leave her post at the White House and become the Director for the Republican Accountability Project, an organization dedicated to holding Republicans accountable for abandoning the core principles of conservatism, the least of which includes supporting an insurrection at the Capitol.

Even with vaccine doses rolling out, testing is still critical for tracing and containing the coronavirus. But throughout 2020 , the White House Coronavirus Task Force consistently said that Montana wasn’t testing enough to contain the spread. Now, institutions statewide have set up their own testing, and are reporting the results to county health departments.

On Friday's program, we took a closer look at where things stand with the state’s supply of COVID-19 vaccines - as well as the latest on its distribution efforts - with Ben Conarck , who covers health care for the Miami Herald and Stephanie Colombini , who reports on health care news for WUSF in Tampa.

White House Coronavirus Task Force Report The last report of the White House Coronavirus Task Force under former President Donald Trump was made public this week. It recommended that Florida shut down bars, restaurants and gyms where mask wearing isn’t being enforced 100 percent of the time, noting that those kinds of businesses remain big vectors of the coronavirus. We closed out the program with a closer look at the report – and lawmakers reactions to it – with

Thursday on Political Rewind: Georgia once again finds itself among the worst states in the nation for new COVID-19 cases and deaths, according to state data and a recent report from the White House Coronavirus Task Force. While the task force numbers indicate a slight improvement in recent weeks, 821 Georgians died from the virus in just the seven-day period ending last Friday. The staggering toll comes even as the state faces a dwindling supply of vaccines as well as confusion about rollout.  However, with his first full day in office, President Joe Biden is kicking his COVID-19 plan into action. The administration has unveiled a new 21-page plan, which leans on executive authority to create a multifaceted national strategy to combat the pandemic. The response is organized around seven main goals, including efforts to protect workers and students, provide reliable information and communication, advance racial equity in the coronavirus response, and deal with supply shortages by ramping up the production of necessities like test kits, protective equipment and, of course, vaccines.  Our panel of experts discuss the state of coronavirus in Georgia and the nation, the challenges ahead, and what Biden's pandemic plans could mean for Georgians — including those now eligible for a vaccine.  Panelists: Dr. Keren Landman — Physician, epidemiologist and journalist Dr. Rodney Lyn — Interim Dean, Georgia State University School of Public Health Scott Trubey — Reporter, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Mecklenburg (NC) County Manager Dena Diorio told people stay home and only celebrate the holidays with people in their household. But then said she's driving across the state to hang out with two of her own family members. It's the same hypocrisy and inconsistent standard that prompted Dr. Deborah Birx (head of the White House Coronavirus Task Force) to say she would be retiring - after it was discovered she traveled out of state and spent time with her extended family at Thanksgiving. Both stories are proof that people NEED to be around other people, and policies of isolation are not sustainable, realistic, or humane.

Covid-19 cases are at record-breaking levels and with a possible surge in the U.S. before Christmas, White House Coronavirus Task Force member Dr. Anthony Fauci says “all things considered, we’re not in a good place.” Moderna and Pfizer have both officially filed for FDA emergency authorization for its coronavirus vaccines and U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar says “we could be seeing both of these vaccines out and getting into people’s arms before Christmas.” William Haseltine is the Chair and President of ACCESS Health International. He tells AC360 the vaccine news is promising but there are still a lot of unanswered questions. Plus, President Trump said he’ll be coming to the Georgia to campaign for Republican Senators Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue, who face two Senate runoff elections in January. Senator Perdue’s opponent, Jon Ossoff, joins AC360 to react to the President’s visit and says Perdue is griping about Trump in private but in public he’s “indulging the President’s fantasy that he actually won.” Airdate: November 30, 2020 Guests: William Haseltine Jon OssoffTo learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy

Wednesday on Political Rewind: The coronavirus epidemic has uprooted many of the norms of daily life, and that will continue to be true through the holiday season. Yesterday, Gov. Brian Kemp urged Georgians to consider alternative virtual Thanksgiving gatherings in order to protect themselves and others from COVID-19. Georgia is faring better than other states at the moment, yet the rate of new infections continues to rise. Last week, an average of over 2,500 Georgians reported new COVID-19 infections each day. The White House Coronavirus Task Force issued an advisory to Georgia, warning the state is “in the early stages of a full resurgence” and has urged state leaders to take aggressive new steps now to tamp down the virus before it spirals out of control. Gov. Kemp did not issue new restrictions or mask mandates, describing new data as a “bump” and not a "spike."

The General Services Administration has informed President-elect Joe Biden and his team that the Trump administration is ready to begin the transition process more than two weeks after the former Vice President was declared the election winner. In a letter, GSA administrator Emily Murphy said she wasn’t pressured by the White House to delay the formal transition. Now that the transition can officially begin, current administration officials can coordinate with the incoming Biden team. David Gergen is a former Presidential Adviser to Presidents Nixon, Ford, Reagan and Clinton and is also a CNN Political Analyst. He tells AC360 he thinks Trump did the right thing but it’s vital that he tells his base and the whole country that Joe Biden is a legitimate president and he is not put there by fraud. Plus, Covid-19 hospitalizations and cases are rising with Thanksgiving only days away. The CDC is advising people to not travel to see family and friends. White House Coronavirus Task Force member Dr. Anthony Fauci said what worries him most is “the immediate situation with people traveling from different places, coming home for Thanksgiving.” Dr. William Schaffner is a professor at the Division of Infectious Diseases at Vanderbilt Medical Center. He joins AC360 to discuss his concerns for the upcoming holiday season.

Officials in the Trump Administration last week videotaped both a naturalization ceremony held at the White House and an HUD official's interview with four New York City tenants on housing conditions. They then played selected parts from each video at the Republican National Convention without the knowledge of the participants. The CDC updated testing guidelines last week to say that people who have been exposed to the virus but who don’t have symptoms or underlying risk factors, don't necessarily need to be tested. After public health officials complained that asymptomatic carriers are more likely to spread the virus, we learned that the recommendations came from the White House Coronavirus Task Force.

Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar and the Trump Administration say they will not let 'red tape' slow their effort combat the coronavirus. That is one of the reasons why Sec. Azar and the White House have been defending their recent emergency authorization of convalescent plasma to treat Covid-19. Earlier in the week, the HHS Secretary joined host Jessica Rosenthal to discuss the effectiveness of using the blood of recovered coronavirus patients in those battling the virus and some of the controversies surrounding the authorization of that treatment.  Sec. Azar stood by its effectiveness and denied claims the White House pressured the FDA and other health officials to prematurely okay the use of plasma.  Our interview with the key White House Coronavirus Task Force member was long and we could not include much of it in our original segment.  On the Fox News Rundown you will hear more from HHS Sec.
