    Clearly, it is impossible for President Trump not to be a petty bitch. Is he Joe Exotic’s level of petty? Not yet, but give him time. After learning Sunday that Sen.

    It’s Time for Dr. Fauci to Tackle the President, Steal the Mic and Keep Telling America the Truth

    During these pandemic times and on these pandemic streets, Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, the longtime director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), is the lone adult in the room.
