GOOD HE NEVER KNEW ANYTHING ANYWAY! orange jumpsuit?

He didnt resigned a minute to soon..Thank God he gone, and his boss next glory to God.Everyone can relax a little these four years been a hot mess!!

Good.

💯

Controversial?! Try fatally incompetent. People are dead because of Atlas. Do better, .

Hooray.

Bye Scott!😷

You misspelled criminally negligent

Bye Felicia.

AMA should rescind his medical license. His entire Administration tenure was malpractice.

Not as 'controversial' as he was COMPLETELY UNQUALIFIED!

Controversial? Dies that translate to “The unqualified pick who increased the spread of the virus?”

What a failure of a tweet. No context on WHY Atlas was controversial. Better: Scott Atlas, no expert on public health or pandemics, was Trump’s coronavirus adviser. He promoted herd immunity which includes letting more people get sick and die from COVID. He resigned today.

Good riddance!!!

Controversial? Piss poor journalism. Smh..

Dr. Atlas should be charged with crimes against humanity.

POLITICO is, and has been nothing but second rate, if not third rate journalism. Perhaps if they were better at writing, reporting, and intelligence, I might recount my thought.

He’s taking on a new consulting role at Mengele Research.

Maybe realDonaldTrump finally realized that listening to Atlas's advise about herd immunity has resulted in over 13 million cases of Covid19, hospitals at capacity and running out of PPE again and almost 300,000 deaths. This is beyond shameful. This is pure dereliction of duty.

He's not controversial he's a quack.

You guys are tied for the worsr headlines and takes together with the NYT.

What exactly was the controversy? Show your work. Who the fuck edits your shit posts?

What a stroke of good luck for the entire country!!!!!

“controversial” nobody with a brain believed anything he said, and i guess that’s what you call someone when he suggested the death of millions of Americans to get to an unknown catastrophic result

This man is not controversial. He’s a disgrace. And he deserves to lose his license over his casual disregard for human life.

Controversial meaning he helped kill thousands of people

High time

So, having propelled the covid crisis into high speed with his voodoo 'science', causing thousands of additional deaths, his task is done and he can fade back into obscurity.

He’ll go down in history as clusterfuck in a pandemic

My work here - lying, grifting, spreading conspiracy theories and hindering meaningful public health measures that would have saved lives. is done. Scott 'lying grifter' Atlas

nobody can work for him, amazing the number of ppl who have come and gone

Scott Atlas is scum & we all know where he should go.

Looks like a horse 🐴 doctor

Is he Dr Kevorkian’s identical twin? I could buy some Xmas gift cards from him for special friends

He was disappointed that there wasn’t any actual Corona to drink. It was a bunch of crap about some virus.

He still should be fired from his job for the actions he articulated during his time in the position. He is unstable and will cause more embarrassment to any institution who employs him

The rats are starting to abandon trump’s sinking ship ...

Good riddance! 🤨

He left before he was fired!

Good!

One less spawn of Satan advising the WH!

Wild guess: Trump does not bother to have someone fill the position.

Good riddance!

How does a respected physician become a clown in a few short months? Sell his soul to Donald trump.

I guess he helped kill his quota.

Atlas clashed banged and bombed and the world shrugged.

Good riddance! He did the damage. He has blood on his hands along with Trump & Pence. As a physician he violated his Hippocratic oath. He is a disgrace to Radiology and Stanford University.

MURDERER

Other outlets reporting his service term is expiring. No mention of why it's not extended.

Me thinks Stanford will extend his leave of absence. See linked statement from the college. Expect to see more 🐀🐀🐀 resign from Trump’s inner circle soon. Trump asking Republican Governor Kemp to do an emergency executive order to overturn election was looney tunes.

He’s a murderer.

Another one down!

Rump is so incompetent and a disgrace

Good riddance. Another rat flees the sinking SS Trump.

Good.

Why?

Why was the wholly unqualified ass-pimple advising Trump on the corona virus to begin with?

Controversial Trump COVID Adviser Scott Atlas ResignsPresident Donald Trump's controversial science adviser, Dr. Scott Atlas, has resigned. Atlas had previously challenged the overwhelming consensus of the scientific community and criticized stronger efforts, including the use of face masks. What’s controversial is the useless articles your site promotes! The person who tweet this is use to having useless people rain golden showers on them. Fauci questioned them once too and famously didn’t wear his when sitting next to two other friends at Nationals game.

Another one bites the dust Big deal. He was going to go Jan 20 Anyway. I cannot wait til I can forget people like this. Ecstatic that I (likely) won't have to worry about a random cabinet member's intern writing a tell all book about how they overheard the Chief of Staff trying to convince POTUS why bombing Norway is a bad idea.
