Said today after his first meeting with the 46th president of the United States of america, joe biden. And dr. Faucis friend ron klein who will be our first guest tonight and who worked with dr. Fauci when the Obamabiden Administration met the challenge of the ebola virus. You know, actually, i mean obviously i dont want to be going back, you know, over history. But its very clear that there were things that were said be it regarding things like hydroxychlorquine and other things like that that really was uncomfortable because they were not based on scientific fact. I can tell you i take no pleasure at all in being a situation contradicting the president. So it was really something that you didnt feel that you could actually Say Something and there wouldnt be any repercussions about it. The idea you can get up here and talk about what you know, what the evidence, the science is and know thats it, let the science speak, it is somewhat of a liberating feeling. On his first full day in Of
With. So this twisted this in the way of getting it implemented. The Court Challenge actually means by the youth action by congress and the action by the next president says states have until 2018 to file plans. Which of those risks are considered the greatest and what are you doing to counter it . We are committing to getting this done.

And i said when i came into my position in january 1 of the principal things that i need to do is to make sure that the direction to the epa the president gave last summer as part of the overall action plan and that is to propose this and when i said that i didnt really realize that that was a sunday.

Our thanks to them, for sitting at the table back there keeping me from the pain of premature retirement. Sponsors or not, we are on the record here.

Thats the definition used by this administration, and when they talk about affiliates, very looselyaligned groups that share some of the same goals of alqaeda but not all of them. Sometimes listen to what the alqaeda core says, sometimes dont and have their own agendas, usually local.
