Follow The Facts

Really? Who needs facts when we have "science" to follow? Well that would be anyone who wants to remain in touch with reality. A reality comprised of facts.

For a powerful example we need look no further than the CDC hosted right here in DeKalb County. Don't wear masks. Wear masks. Wear two masks. Don't wear masks. Following the science seems to be a dodgy business.  And when it comes to dodgy the CDC is king of the hill.

We have them overstepping their bounds, their stated mission of research and scientific inquiry to become a policy engine issuing unauthorized regulations. Regulations now found to be illegal

And they've abandoned science in favor of politics. It seems the CDC now works for a union, the American Federation of Teachers and their union boss Randi Weingarten. Recently the AFT has called for the CDC to carve out special "science" for operating schools the way the AFT wants them operated, and no surprise at added cost. Before that the AFT was literally dictating to the CDC the specific language for CDC reports. 

If a rational creature were to follow the actual facts the conclusion would not be to defund the police but to defund the CDC which is clearly not doing science but is doing much public harm.
