"But they found her anyway. In other words, the Trump Administration’s focus on covid accountability is not just performative. They really are trying to root these dangerous people out"
The Trump administration is trying to restore a high trust society in all our institutions (not just public health) by undoing this:
Pathologizing normal, and normalizing pathology.
This is, at base, what the Lefts ideology is all about.
It needs to be demolished root to stem. Still lots of work to be done...but it's a great start.
And always Ryan G, always, these peoples security clearances must be cancelled.
I would love to see a DOGE report on the number and level of security clearances among government employees and temp workers. I'm guessing it is astonishing.
Remembering the anticipatory stress of the last few weeks leading to my retirement, this story of this woman getting shut down gives me great satisfaction!
I doubt this evil being will starve due to reduced benefits, but hopefully it crimps some grandiose schemes.
So….help me understand….Terry Adirim (Master’s in Public Health) is a DOCTOR? With a Master’s degree? The trolls at The View wanted Dr. Jill to be Surgeon General? With a degree in Education? I have TWO Masters Degrees…does that mean I can call myself a Doctor now? All hail Dr. Nard…Queen of the Universe, Master of my Domain….bwahaha!
Seriously, though. The world is truly ridonkulous.
She did get her MD from University of Miami but so what and big deal. She caused a LOT of harm thus negating her hippocratic oath. And she should loose every license and degree she holds and of course her job.
A everyone knows on this site, being called a doctor is no longer a guaranteed sign of respect, even awe for the dweeb normies who worship lab coats. At this point, doctor to me, and with for sure exceptions, so don't get all fuzzed up if you are a doctor., connotes sell out, check your integrity at the door, close minded, money uber alas, and at its worst, murderer.
I started subscribing to the WSJ in the late 1970s. It was a fine start to my investing education. THEN it was a business oriented paper. I've finally absolutly had it. Late last year (do not troll me for taking too long) I cancelled my print edition. THE expensive one. The "included" with the print fee Online edition went with it. I just couldn't take it. On top of the left wing loon aspect, it has turned into a combination of People magazine and a real estate rag.
There is a lot of good content online. The money I spent on the WSJ now goes to C&C and it's a lot better value!
I subscribed for 25 years and stopped 5 years ago. The leftists destroyed the business content - lots of pro-vax, climate change BS started popping up - while the editorial page stood strong. But slowly and surely, the editorial page has lost its way in its everlasting Never Trump campaign.
TRUE Leftists say they were sold out by Ram Emmanuel and Barry O. They wanted Gvt.-run Single Payer. THEY are Correct. The Corrupt Obamacare Bargain enriched everyone involved and left the idealist-socialist medical system prostrate, fully under the thumb of new Dem-Political-Swamp-Insurance Masters who've been enriched all the more, ever since without fixing a damned thing--maybe the pre-existing condition loophole as that's the only excuse.
Constitutionally, States have every right to deter, detain, defend, and prosecute alien criminals; these are pirates, brigands, bandits, cartels, etc who INVADE the State with ill intent to perpetrate crimes. How can the state know unless they scoop up everyone who is under-documented and investigate properly? So Domestic Enablers of the Invasion (NGOs, Judges, Dem Party, Law firms, Mayorkus-Biden-Harris ARE by definition ALSO Enemies of the various States along with their surrogates who they've supported by both Quasi-legal policy, Extra-Constitutional over-reach, and outright criminal domestic activity. The 30, 40, 70 years of reckoning might as well start NOW. Let the streets of Sanctuary Cities (Invasion Safe Zones) fill up with the Democult zombie protestors who don't like it. Let the Obstructionist Judges and ACLU Lawyers get put in cuffs and arraigned for their role in the INVASION too. Put Alejandro Mayorkus' mug shot on a tee shirt and sell them in support of National Invasion if you dare...that fund raising may itself also come under scrutiny.
The pat-a-cake and immigrant football games ploy needs to end and Assertion of control and Constitutional Power and Duties re-established. We were too nice for too long to too many and this classroom and entire schoolhouse that is run by the disruptive children needs to be FIXED by whatever painful punishing means required. The Invaders' supporters (OUR OWN DEMs (and RINOs too) need to be INCARCERATED en masse for their Foul Crimes done for profit and National harm. This situation may escalate sufficiently due to Domestic Pro-Invasion forces where National Guard will be required to properly handle it in a conclusive manner.
If Blue-State Secessionist Governors like Polis, Pritzker, and others want to deploy armed resistance to defend their Marxist-Minded perversion of "State's Rights", then let the games begin.. the TRUE Insurrectionists will be dealt with in the Severest of terms
Yes where were the honest politicians: red and blue?? My “uneducated” father, an immigrant to the US in 1949 from E Europe, has been saying the same; preaching the corruption in the USA since the 1970s. Was not afraid of COVID; never took the jabs (let the young people have them if thy fear for their live. [He died in 2024 at 98. ]
“This situation may escalate sufficiently due to Domestic Pro-Invasion forces where National Guard will be required to properly handle it in a conclusive manner.”
I would expect nothing less. They’re like the hordes of the final battle in The return of the King.
OK, I admit to being a WSJ subscriber for about four decades now. Mostly because, as Rush said, the WSJ commits "random acts of journalism" just often enough to keep me around. My recommendation to fellow WSJ subscribers: Call the WSJ to cancel your subscription. In response, they will reduce your subscription price to about 1/4th of the normal price to keep you around. Then use the savings toward your C&C subscription.
@jeffchilders. Jeff!!! I think you have the comments restricted to paid subscribers only. Can you check on that? Someone just messaged me privately and asked me to let you know they received a message saying that only paid subscribers could comment. Thanks so much and happy Cinco de Mayo!
I enjoy a tasty margarita as much as the next guy, but I don't get the whole "happy Cinco de Mayo". It's not even a national holiday in Mexico, it's the date that a small brigade in Pueblo beat the much larger French force.
Taco Bell didn't even have any specials or anything today.
Reading this morning’s update produces a serious and guttural ER^2 reaction…Eye Roll Response. It’s unfathomable how so many Federal agencies are engaging themselves in literally every issue key to the destruction of America as we know it, and it’s almost all being done from the inside out via these corrupt unelected bureaucrats. Nobody stays in their lane as it appears everybody is doing everything because each department must hire ever more people to concoct their own versions of whatever cockamamie ill-fated and morally corrupt notions they can conjure up…all at taxpayer’s expense, of course…hell, you cannot expect these subversive fools to take on any accountability, or responsibility, for anything. Everything’s done in support of the long con. Throw in consensus-style operations and you’ve then got total gridlock with not a single person taking the lead and challenging the sense and sensibility, and the exorbitant cost, of pursuing one ridiculous, misguided and unnecessary policy decision after the next with their primary purpose being to support their ever-expanding grifting operations…screw what the American people want or need, it’s all about growing their net worth in any manner possible. It seems that as a part of this massive restructuring effort perhaps a majority of the departments need to be shut down, with each remaining group updating their mission statement to clearly delineate what they’re charged with doing, and only that, to keep them focused and efficient at just doing their jobs in the best manner possible and keeping their nose out of everything else. And it goes without saying they’ve abused the distributed and archaic and defunct IT systems that have no sense of what’s going on globally within the government superstructure to hide their theft and corruption. Hoping and praying DOGE stays at it until things are fixed. And maintaining a presence like that in perpetuity would be a good idea because once all systems are integrated it’s feasible to then monitor all government operations from a central command center and detect quickly when any department is running astray of their budget and/or their primary duties. Rant over…
And Michele O says she had to cover her own food costs and daily expenses while in the WH! Maybe a Go Fund Me to reimburse her? She's probably having to shop at second hand stores for clothes, and that shouldn't be!
In my gospel reading today, people are pursuing Jesus after the feeding of the five thousand, just to see what he’ll do next. He tells them, I think, that it’s not so much what he does, as what they will now do.
It made me think of all the admiration of Trump and his administration’s bold acts, when in order to save our bacon, we’re all going to have to be bold and brave.
If we can’t stand up to our leftist relatives and neighbors, who can we stand up to?
The Left is entrenched like stage 4 cancer. We can never let our guard down!
I do not consider Dr Oz brave. When COVID started, i absolutely saw him in an interview when he said that people with lupus take HCQ or Ivermectin (i cant remember which) regularly. And he said it will be interesting to see if they don’t contract COVID at the same rate as others. He said he will be pulling data from Blue Cross to get this answer….CRICKETS. They shut him up and he went along with it
Investigating her "career" will be revealing. Political Generals and Political Doctors, like all Political "experts" are useful pawns who benefit richly from their political service to State Masters
I would say the best outcome for the DOJ lawsuit of Big Insurance would be cross-state-border insurance competition; not just healthcare but the whole Insurance Industry. Why is this industry exempt like MLB?: legal carve-out for Major League Baseball (MLB) refers to its unique exemption from federal antitrust laws, primarily established by the U.S. Supreme Court in Federal Baseball Club v. National League (1922). This exemption allows MLB to operate as a legal monopoly
Share your contention. We do it for auto and homeowners insurance. Why health? Must have been a deal between Aetna et amici and some Democrat president/congress.
I read the Wall Street Journal every day. While I don't think it is, as Trump says, a "rotten newspaper," it certainly is a rotting newspaper. It has been moldering, decaying and slowly decomposing for about 10 years now.
Firing Dr Terry is a brilliant move! Target the behind-the-scenes people and let the front men keep talking and earning their money. That strategy kills two birds with one stone. Gets rid of the deep state problem and keeps the activists reminding people about the front men. We must never forget!
"But they found her anyway. In other words, the Trump Administration’s focus on covid accountability is not just performative. They really are trying to root these dangerous people out"

“Dr.” Terry definitely is not a doctor.
👏 removing people who implemented these anti-science policies is the only way.
And always Ryan G, always, these peoples security clearances must be cancelled.

Maybe I should call myself a doctor… I mean, I have two degrees also…
and it is my birthday month
Why not? There's always DOCTOR Jill Biden.
Forgot to say that my last name is Mayo…
Double win!
She did get her MD from University of Miami but so what and big deal. She caused a LOT of harm thus negating her hippocratic oath. And she should loose every license and degree she holds and of course her job.

Forgot to say that my last name is Mayo…
Paul Alexander is in the same boat.
Look her up. She has an MD and a masters of public health.
I think the masters of public health degree undoes the MD.

I stayed because we enjoy(ed) reading a paper. As with you, when the editorial page went left....I "left."
I subscribed for about 34 years and like many here quit in 2018. And the paper has not stopped its woke, downward spiral.
I cancelled about 15 years ago {{sigh}}. I used to love that rag…
A CIA doctor… that is chilling when you think about it.
Big Insurance drove Obamacare
Obamacare was/ is used as a vehicle for State sponsored secularism. The whole point was to pit secularism against religion.
Yep:

Funny

An APPOINTED bureaucrat😂😂😂
I do not consider Dr Oz brave. When COVID started, i absolutely saw him in an interview when he said that people with lupus take HCQ or Ivermectin (i cant remember which) regularly. And he said it will be interesting to see if they don’t contract COVID at the same rate as others. He said he will be pulling data from Blue Cross to get this answer….CRICKETS. They shut him up and he went along with it
I have a negative picture from that time too. I think it had to do with mask wearing endorsements.
It was HCQ
But what makes Dr. Terry a Dr? Dr. of what?
Investigating her "career" will be revealing. Political Generals and Political Doctors, like all Political "experts" are useful pawns who benefit richly from their political service to State Masters

I guess anyone can use the word doctor anytime they want? Today's newest preferred pronoun? So a PhD is the same as an MS and both are just B.S.?
Jill Biden doesn't even have a PhD.
I believe she has an EdD in education.
Which is not a Ph.D. (that was my point)
A pharmacist on my staff a number of years ago insisted on her customers calling her "Doctor Abbott". What an eye-roller
I read the Wall Street Journal every day. While I don't think it is, as Trump says, a "rotten newspaper," it certainly is a rotting newspaper. It has been moldering, decaying and slowly decomposing for about 10 years now.
It is rotten. Has been for quite some time. Started to rot even before Trump.
Yes!!! The new week begins! Looking forward to it!
