Brett Giroir, Trump’s testing czar, was forced out of a job developing vaccine projects. Now he’s on the hot seat.

Brett Giroir, the federal official overseeing coronavirus testing efforts, says that his experience working on vaccine development projects at Texas A&M University helped prepare him for this historic moment. He once said that his vaccine effort was so vital that “the fate of 50 million people will rely on us getting this done.”

But after eight years of work on several vaccine projects, Giroir was told in 2015 he had 30 minutes to resign or he would be fired. His annual performance evaluation at Texas A&M, the local newspaper reported, said he was “more interested in promoting yourself” than the health science center where he worked. He got low marks on being a “team player.”

Now President Trump has given Giroir the crucial task of ending the massive shortfall of tests for the novel coronavirus. Some governors have blasted the lack of federal help on testing, which they say is necessary to enact Trump’s plan for reopening the economy.

And how does Ur CV compare j66- who knows only WaPo narrative propaganda.

Hmmmm????
What a fool!!!


BTW - because j66 knows not what is a CV - it is Curriculum vitae - I would not expect poor j66 to find that in his WaPo narratives.

Another Jaxsoff247 thread.

Game, set, match oeb. Again.

G- Thank you good Sir!
Unfortunately - J66 and ilk are like "whack a mole" - refute one lie with facts - they just pop back with more lies from their Fascist LSM propaganda!!

Awww, what’s wrong little trumpy....are you tiring of defending the total incompetence of the great leader. So tell me when the great leaders man is going to announce that testing is available for all like the great leader implied last month. Let me answer that for you...never!

The great leader was promoting the tremendous new testing machine built by Abbott today in his infomercial but he left out a important fact. The tremendous machine can only complete 89 tests a day.

The great leader also mentioned that oil will be doing great in thirty days, I doubt that because his good buddies Putin and the Killer King haven’t finished reaming his fat incompetent ass out.

All hail the great leader with the loose sphincter

Learn to contribute something besides WaPo propaganda, scatology, and name-calling.


J66 does not have the ability to shine Adm. Giroir's shoes!

Well, I certainly possess the ability to shine shoes but I lack the desire to do so, but I suspect you would have no problem shining the shoes of the great leader with your tongue while he is still wearing the shoes fresh from stepping in dog shit.

Living in complete admiration of the great leader is a pitiful way to spend my golden years...but it must be working for some.

Would you tip or not? I’m thinking a few bucks from the scraps the great leader’s biggest bailout in History should be put back into the Texas economy. So I’m gonna tip a few bucks.

every time theres a new school district superintendent, the school district's and the teacher's insurance contracts always go to a new guy

and in south texas, its often to the wife's uncle's brother -in-law, just far enough removed to have a pretense
