Dr. Anthony Fauci forced to beef up security as death threats increase

https://www.cnn.com/2020/04/01/politics/anthony-fauci-security-detail/index.html

To be expected. Now rw extremists are ticked because they don't like hearing actual facts. They have been so twisted by the rw media that they are attacking the messenger.

Obviously trump had a come to jesus meeting. They finally seem to have gotten it through his thick head that this is serious. As Jim Acosta put it, today trump seemed scared straight. But it is too late for some of his followers. The perpetual crackpot drumbeat of liberal conspiracies coming from trump and the likes of Fox and Limbaugh, have been beating too loudly for too long. True believers are completely disconnected from reality.

 

I had assumed antifa as the culprit. its usually them with pretty much everything.

 

It's probably a mixture of both right wing and left wing and just plain ole' crazy conspiracy theorists. But of course don't expect to hear such from the likes of CNN or other media sources. It's always got to be a them vs us mentality with them.

 

Also from the article-

Don't let that keep us from stirring the pot though.

 

It should probably be noted that CNN doesn't know where the threats are coming from. Interesting that you didn't include that part in your multi-paragraph skipping quote from the article.

From your own article:

 

WRONG.

It ISN'T "a mixture".

It is RW Extremists. Period.

cited several articles critical of Fauci circulating among right-wing commentators and outlets. Other outlets have also reported that Fauci has been the target of right-wing conspiracy theories claiming he is working to undermine Trump.

Why do some elements of the RW feel it necessary to threaten this American Patriot?

 

A source also confirmed to CNN last week the presence of several members of the Washington, DC, Metropolitan Police Department stationed at all times around Fauci's home in the district. The source added the stepped up visible police presence was a response to growing threats to Fauci's safety, though the source of the threats was not identified.

Not a single mention of threats in your NY Times hit piece.

 

You answered your own question.... it's being seen that he is working to undermine Trump.

I LOL that it would be considered Antifa (or other left wing nuts) here... Fauci isn't a Facist... he's working to undermine the Facist....

 

Exactly.

RW Extremists (who feel that Fauci is undermining Trump) are responsible for threats.

That is as clear as the Sunrise.

 

Proof? Examples?

Sorry, but I haven't read or heard about antifa being the "culprit" of anything lately. They seem to be active only at rallies or protests, and we aren't having those now.

 

So...because they cite RW articles that are negative that automatically means to you that the threats came from RW sources.

Try harder.

 

Fauci is the only one on that daily show-and-tell who gives us the unvarnished truth, and no good deed ever goes unpunished.

 

He isn't there to undermine anyone. His mission, being the patriot that he's always been, is to give the American people the facts we need. He's in this for us.

 

Exactly.

Trump CAN'T handle the Truth, and some of his supporters can't come to grips with the Fact that Trump is headed to a Catastrophic Defeat.

I just pray that the authorities can keep this Great Patriot (Fauci) Safe.

 

The propaganda paper known as the CNN would of course stew things in the worst possible light against the administration and/or the "right wing". As a result, CNN has taken massive in-house damage in America. It's now a joke.

 

Fauci will be just fine. 99% of threats in these situations are just that...threats. most people wouldn't actually carry them out. Just "internet tough guy" type of thing.

Still, glad he's got protection.

 

Point taken.

99% are "idle threats"

Still, that "Other 1%" can snap at any time.

And, agreed, I am glad that he has added security.
