Remember when Trump blamed military and law enforcement for Hope Hicks getting COVID? It never made sense why she, and now him, would blame military personnel for giving it to them. Well...did you know there was a Gold Star Mother's Day event at the White House on Sunday?
What he said on Thursday “It’s very, very hard when you are with people from the military or law enforcement, and they come over to you, and they want to hug you, and they want to kiss you, because we really have done a good job for them. And you get close and things happen"
Now we know. Look at these photos from the event Tweeted out by the First Lady. No masks. No social distancing. They were all hanging out like normal the day after the super spreader event for Amy Coney Barrett.
Today's NYT has this nugget: "General Milley and a number of senior (DOD) officials have also been getting tested frequently since last Sunday, when many of the Pentagon’s senior leadership attended a White House reception for “Gold Star” families of fallen troops." So, they knew
I can't find anyone that can confirm any of the family members that attended have been contacted about possible exposure. They came from across the country then boarded planes and went home. Elderly parents, children, widows and our military chain-of-command all attended.
This event has been hidden and barely mentioned in the media or by the White House in the timelines of Trump's illness. We now know he attended the event the day after contracting COVID at the ACB event. He has literally infected our military survivor families...himself.
Here is the tweet from @FLOTUS showing all of the smiling, unmasked attendees mingling with a COVID positive POTUS. Don't tell me they love the troops and their families when they've exposed them to a deadly disease and haven't bothered to even tell them. #LincolnVeteran
More pics from the White House Flickr page....you can see Chad Wolfe is there from DHS. Has anyone asked him about his status?
But wait there's more. I am being old that Admiral Ray the Vice Commandant of the Coast Guard that tested positive today...was at the Gold Star event last Sunday. #TrumpSuperSpreader
I'm hearing from families now. Not one has been contacted by the White House about possible exposure or contact tracing. They were exposed to multiple people that have tested positive and the Trump Administration can't be bothered to even email them.
