CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky has blown all of her credibility with her terrible messaging about the coronavirus. Now she’s showing she can concentrate on two things at once by adding gun violence to the CDC’s plate, calling it a public health threat. “Something has to be done about this,” she told CNN. “Now is the time — it’s pedal to the metal time.”
Gun violence in America is an epidemic that has been going on for decades.
The CDC decision to study gun violence is long overdue & in the past I have introduced legislation that provides funding for this research.
This issue needs come out of the dark.https://t.co/tSXVaRVf5D

For DECADES, the gun lobby has prevented the CDC from studying gun violence.
Now, under @POTUS, we can finally address gun violence for what it is: a public health crisis.https://t.co/wWyVNQDJje

“Study” gun violence.

Maybe we’re wrong, but we thought CDC stood for Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, but as we’ve seen, the CDC has gotten into the property rental business as well, telling landlords what they can and can’t do with their own property. And now it’s setting its sights on guns.

What other political issues are they going to label a "public health threat" so they can provide an opinion?https://t.co/GH98Gpf61o

If the government tells you you don’t need a gun… you need a gun.

CDC needs to stay in their own lane, this has nothing to do with disease.

Now that it's been proven "public health threats" are just attempts to grab power, the regime is trying the same strategy with guns.#AbolishTheCDC

Not their job. Just like their other interventions, non-compliance is the answer.

“My job is to understand and evaluate the problem, to understand the scope of the problem, to understand why this happens and what are the things that can make it better — to research that, to scale that up, to evaluate it and to make sure that we can integrate it into communities,” Walensky told CNN, making it clear she has no idea what her job really is.
