Dr. Deborah Birx dials up the hyperbole to hawk new tell-all Trump trashing book

Former White House COVID-19 task force member Dr. Deborah Birx has resurfaced, not coincidentally just in time to promote her new book, the latest in a line of tell-all accounts from Trump administration insiders seeking to cash in while dumping on their ex-boss.

Dr. Birx retired amidst a firestorm of criticism after she was busted for her traveling out of state for the 2020 Thanksgiving holiday, ignoring her own travel advice as well as the CDC’s guidance in a scandal that came during the time that she was reportedly angling for a job with the incoming Biden administration. She appeared on ABC’s “Good Morning America” where she served up her juicy gossip.

The longtime bureaucrat kicked off her publicity tour by sitting down to discuss the just-released “Silent Invasion: The Untold Story of the Trump Administration, COVID-19, and Preventing the Next Pandemic Before It’s Too Late,” and to give her account of the horrors of her service under Trump.

Likely to get the most attention was Birx’s description of the infamous press conference where the former POTUS wasn’t clear while discussing possible alternative ways to mitigate the virus, referring to a “disinfectant” which was quickly distorted by his many antagonists who falsely insisted that he told Americans to inject bleach.

After the longtime Clinton family lickspittle George Stephanopoulos teed up a selectively edited clip of Trump’s controversial remarks, the “scarf lady” laid it on thick,

“That’s why I wrote about it in the book, cause this was a tragedy on many levels,” she said as she laid the groundwork to portray Trump in as negative a light as possible.

“As you can see, he wasn’t speaking to me, he was speaking to the PhD scientist who presented the data…” she continued. “At the beginning I didn’t even know what was happening,” indicating that she was upset that she had not been consulted by the Trump.

“I couldn’t understand how disinfectant and sunlight for outdoor playground equipment became this and I think the scientists and the president had talked about it having a potential therapeutic.”

In another media appearance, Birx claimed that she was “paralyzed,” a hyperbolic statement that will likely generate enough curiosity to fuel book sales.

While Trump wasn’t as clear as he probably should have been during the fateful presser, Dr. Birx’s sensationalistic account of the “bleach” story, which despite being in heavy rotation in media and Democrat talking points was a bit less of an open and shut case than many would have suggested.

According to trusty fact-checker PolitiFact, which provided the actual context of the transcript, Trump’s remarks were “not clear” and also called out Joe Biden’s claim that Trump instructed Americans to ingest bleach.

Many on Twitter were skeptical of Birx and her sudden reemergence from laying low to hit the media circuit just in time to pimp her book.

According to Amazon’s blurb on what it promotes as the “definitive, inside account of the Trump Administration’s response to the Covid-19 pandemic,” the book is penned by “a lifelong federal health official who had worked at the CDC, the State Department, and the US Army across multiple presidential administrations.”

“Silent Invasion is the story of what she witnessed and lived for the next year—an eye-opening, inside account, detailed here for the first time, of the Trump Administration’s response to the greatest public health crisis in modern times,” the description continues.  “Regarded with suspicion in the West Wing from day one, Dr. Birx goes beyond the media speculation and political maneuvering to show what she was really up against in the Trump White House. Digging into the hard-fought victories, the costly mistakes, and the human drama surrounding the administration’s efforts, she examines the forces that crippled efforts to control the virus and explores why these blunders continue to haunt us today.”

Dr. Birx joins the likes of John Bolton, William Barr, James Comey, and Omarosa among others as embittered former subordinates who have sought to settle scores while fattening their bank accounts with books that get much attention from the corrupt media before they ultimately end up in the discount bin.

  1. Another sap trying to make money off of Trump’s name. The book will be on
    fire sale or in a bargain bin. Birx who? Oh snap a worthless doctor for cockroaches.

    1. That woman is a sellout with regard to science. She should have her license revoked and her diploma recinded. She is an embarrassment to REAL scientists everywhere.

  3. Who dug her up to hawk a book? I remember how she violated her own so-called mandate, with her family, to ready a house for sale, supposedly. It was okay for them to ignore the mandate, just not us germy people! :wpds_mad: 

  4. Amazing….just amazing….how all these clowns can ride Trump’s coattails to wealth. Especially from writing books explaining how THEY FAILED THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, but as long as they trash Trump, it’s all good. Who do they think they’re fooling?

    1. Well of course the left will buy it they need new material to throw at us. They live for this kind of fake news no truths garbage. It like a drug to them.

      1. The Left prides itself on eating up every new pile of garbage that their handlers spew. It’s like pigs to slop.

  7. Shes like an alligator hiding under the dark water until shes sees an opportunity to acquire something for herself to devour.

  8. Who honestly gives a flying f*** what this quack has to say?

    She’ll sell ten copies and go back to her Birkenstock-wearing tea-klatch.

  9. She should still be hiding her head in shame for what she was outed as doing during the pandemic. What’s with the sudden shamelessness? Democrat desperation?

  10. Dr. Deborah Birx is just another slime with an even more disreputable so-called tell all book. She, and her buddy Fauci, should crawl back under the rock they came from!!

  11. This woman is no doctor but a political hack writing a book so maybe CNN will hire her. So tired of these creeps continue to beat this dead horse of canceling Trump. Lady, he is so bigger than you are any trash rag you are trying to hawk

  12. As has been proven, the Trump proposal to inject bleach never happened. He did, however, propose using the proven treatment hydroxychloroquine, and in that, he was once again proven correct.

  13. I lose all respect for people who write “tell all” books when the person about whom they are supposedly telling all has made it possible and given them the platform to be able to write a “tell all” book.
