The managing editor of the prominent conservative website RedState has spent months trashing U.S. officials tasked with combating COVID-19, dubbing White House coronavirus task force member Dr. Anthony Fauci a "mask nazi," and intimating that government officials responsible for the pandemic response should be executed.

But that writer, who goes by the pseudonym "streiff," isn't just another political blogger. The Daily Beast has discovered that he actually works in the public affairs shop of the very agency that Fauci leads.
William B. Crews is, by day, a public affairs specialist for the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. But for years he has been writing for RedState under the streiff pseudonym. And in that capacity he has been contributing to the very same disinformation campaign that his superiors at the NIAID say is a major challenge to widespread efforts to control a pandemic that has claimed roughly 200,000 U.S. lives.
Under his pseudonym, Crews has derided his own colleagues as part of a left-wing anti-Trump conspiracy and vehemently criticized the man who leads his agency, whom he described as the "attention-grubbing and media-whoring Anthony Fauci." He has gone after other public health officials at the state and federal levels, as well"the public health Karenwaffen,'' as he's called themover measures such as the closures of businesses and other public establishments and the promotion of social distancing and mask-wearing.

Those policies, Crews insists, have no basis in science and are simply surreptitious efforts to usurp Americans' rights, destroy the U.S. economy, and damage President Donald Trump's reelection effort.
"I think we're at the point where it is safe to say that the entire Wuhan virus scare was nothing more or less than a massive fraud perpetrated upon the American people by 'experts' who were determined to fundamentally change the way the country lives and is organized and governed," Crews wrote in a June post on RedState.

"If there were justice," he added, "we'd send and [sic] few dozen of these fascists to the gallows and gibbet their tarred bodies in chains until they fall apart."

After The Daily Beast brought those and other quotes from Crews to NIAID's attention, the agency said in an emailed statement that Crews would "retire" from his position. "NIAID first learned of this matter this morning, and Mr. Crews has informed us of his intention to retire," the spokesperson, Kathy Stover, wrote. "We have no further comments on this as it is a personnel matter."

Here are some comments made in April from top conservative commentators and personalities:
>> Rush Limbaugh: "It's now down to 60,000. What happened to 240,000? What happened to 100,000 to 200,000? What happened to 240,000?"

>> Brian Kilmeade: "The fact is, when someone says 200,000 people die, oops, I mean 60,000. And it's not going to be right away, it's going to be in August. That's how good we are doing and how off the models were..."

>> Bill O'Reilly: "The [death toll] projections that you just mentioned are down to 60,000, I don't think it will be that high..."

>> Candace Owens: "FACT: we went from 2.2 million, to 100,000, to 60,000 predictive #coronavirus deaths because the models were always bulls**t, the media was always lying, and the virus was never as fatal as the experts that are chronically wrong about everything, prophesized..."

>> Laura Ingraham: "They were off by a factor of 33 from 2.2 million projected COVID deaths at the top, which was terrifying to a little bit more than 60,000 deaths projected today..."

>> Mark Levin: "We've seen these numbers, these so-called models and the data over the last six to eight weeks. They have fluctuated wildly. Millions might die. Hundreds of thousands might die. Now, they're saying 60,000 give or take, maybe less than 60,000...."

>> Tucker Carlson: "Sixty thousand deaths -- that's a very big number. ... Yet, at the same time, it is far fewer than many expected. It is a much lower number...."

>> Martha MacCallum: "You cannot help but look at the numbers that caused it and the models which were incorrect that really were one of the biggest push points to shut down the United States economy. It is quite possible that you're going to end up with numbers of fatalities in this Covid-19 tragedy of those that have been affected that will be south of the numbers in the 2018 flu season..."

>> Dinesh D'Souza: "Most people have no idea how way off the #Coronavirus models have been. A nutcase virus denier who predicted ZERO deaths would be closer to the mark (ie to the current 60,000 projection) than the best-case scenarios, taking into account social distancing, of 100-240,000 deaths..."

>> Jim Hoft: "STUNNING! IHME Reduces Their Model Predictions AGAIN! Now Say Peak Is ON EASTER and Only 60,000 Deaths ...Like a Typical Flu!"

It is expected that the vaccine for children would not be available until next July or August due to the fact that the current trials being conducted don't include children.

This is the kind of person that conservatives here can really get behind. If you thought the tea party was bad, wait until these people get representation in our government.

What is wrong with conservative culture in America?

"I had to confront the virus so the American people stop being afraid of it so we could deal with it responsibly," the President reportedly told Mr Giuliani." Sky News

Mr. POTUS, are the Americans that contract COVID 19 going forward going to have access to the same Rolls Royce medical care and drugs you received?

He has been "confronting" STDs on behalf of the American people his whole life, but he somehow didn't confront Vietnam or Russia or any of the enemies of the nation in the moment. It's selective, very selective, confrontation.
