At a briefing on the coronavirus response today, lawmakers voiced concern about the Trump administration's messaging on the outbreak — and pressed senior officials for more information and the availability of test kits.

"Dr. Fauci said that when everything changed over to the Vice President being given the authority to lead the effort, Dr. Fauci had been already booked on a number of programs," said Rep. Mark Tacano, D-Calif."He said to everyone — I am not being muzzled, I want to clear that up."

White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow said Friday that there was"no hard and fast process" about requiring permission from the vice president's office before making public comment, but that the administration was trying to"coordinate our messages." In an appearance at the Conservative Political Action Conference, Acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney said Democratic members of Congress were only complaining about transparency regarding the coronavirus in an effort to"bring down the president."ago, but Democrats only started caring once impeachment proceedings were over.

California representatives like Rep. John Garamendi, whose district includes one of the military bases where people who have been evacuated from China are being quarantined, says health officials say they have updated policies thatwho presented symptoms associated with the COVID-19 virus.

Fake news, we have know idea whether they are restricted or not...: look at the CDC website, we’ve 1 death and 15 cases in the US.... that’s the fact.... Dems are dangerous to society..... ask them how many this year has died from the flu, yet they say nothing?

Are these the same lawmakers, and is the same media, that viciously attacked President Trump for the measures he took that greatly reduced the virus's impact?

What are thump and pence hiding, more corruption.

Even fellow Democrats were angry at these comments. Let’s remember that though the CDC has great power.

If you want to listen to anti-American, un-patriotic and anti-Trump rethoric, not even tangential, buy direct, you don't have to dial Radio Marti (Cuba), Radio Korea (NoKo), Radio Managua or RT (Russian Television), but just dial FM 93.1 at fakenewsNPR NPR static noise.

The lack of information is general here as in Europe.With the visceral fear of general panic everywhere.Except that the lack of information comes mainly from China, which refuses to tell the truth about the real number of contaminations and from which laboratory the virus left

I can’t believe they aren’t leaking info! There. Fixed it for you..

Oh please. Using a health crisis to score political points is disgusting. Keeping everyone coordinated is important and SOP.

What does happen if someone from the cdc doesn’t go through Trump first with a n announcement? Just wondering as I have no idea . What us the charge if they don’t follow his orders?

Somebody better tell her to shut up b4 she disappear like confirmed corona virus cases in America. Or the stock market. Everyone has freedom of speech until trump doesn't want to hear it.

NPR, you are one of the outlets that kept saying, over and over, that coronavirus is not as bad as the flu.

Bullshit. It's being spoken about freely, but while she was voting on vaping today, flavored vaping, she may have missed it. Priorities.

It is a regime

Because our economy matters more than our health and safety, obviously.

we should all be concerned and keep realDonaldTrump and his followers accountable for the harm they are causing this nation

If she is referring to the Chinese regime that kept secrecy about the outbreak and even incarcerated the doctors who first reported the cases, then she is right to demand transparency, China’s response to the problem has been truly despicable!

NPR bias is so obvious.

I think Rosa was dropped on her head one too many times when she was a child.

Democrats want to create hysteria because their presidential candidates suck so bad.

Transparency is important. It’s like we’re China or something. 👀😑

Do any of you even know what you're talking a out?

I trust the Vice Penis to shoot us straight and pray the virus away, why don't you?

The senior officials should have pressed the clowns in congress why they'll have to get back to them in a couple weeks with some funding. Pelosi called congress back from recess in 2010 and teacher bailouts were done in days. It was an emergency.

They voiced concern for funding idiots at NPR.

If you want to PROTEST Western Civilization and WHITE MALES you could start by BOYCOTTING their inventions: Start with- - Computer - Electricity - Cell phone - Motor vehicle - Air Conditioner - Polio Vaccine - Eye Glasses - Airplane - CD - Pasturization - Batteries Good Luck!!!

Odd NPR was on the press call with the CDC today in which that information was given.... your lying to the public. Pathetic

I think we can all agree that our elected officials should set aside the partisan differences and work together to distribute more test kits, develop a working treatment plan, and streamline a vaccine to the public. FollowMe

They're only interested in fighting President Trump every step of the way. Sickening.
