Can we talk about Caputo?

So he is a Deadhead with  alleged mental issues high up in the medical wing(spokesman) of the somethin somethin in the trump Administration?

Bang, bang. Shoot, shoot.

>>>   encouraging his staff to listen to music by the Grateful Dead.

Seems right. "If you get confused just listen to the music play." And he's definitely confused. 

Thought this might be an Italian Cold-Cut topic.

^ I thought it was about Weir's cape / poncho thing

He is especially excited about an idea for a Mexican poncho (or perhaps it's a serape) that has pockets, inspired by a garment he was given by a Oaxacan textile collective while performing at Dead & Company's Playing in the Sand festival in Riviera Maya last year: “It's warm when you want to be warm, cool when you want to be cool. It's the kind of thing that if you get a nice one, you wear a suit and tie with it and go to a cool restaurant and you're going to get in.” This might be pure genius or Lebowski-like fantasy, but in any event James Perse is actually making the damn thing. They should be available at Dead & Company shows this summer.

I see he is from Buffalo, maybe some upstate heads know him, thankfully I can say I don't .

2008 at the dead/allmans obama benefit at State College I was unfortunate to sit next to a fox news viewer who had nothing good to say about obamer. I finally asked why he was there donating $100 tp the campaign.

His response was he wanted his very large son to see the band with him. That pretty much ended our interaction

This has all the signs of a speed habit.

'Top Trump Health Official to Take Leave of Absence After Facebook Rant Accusing Scientists of ‘Sedition’

Caputo will take a leave of absence from Health Department.

Michael R. Caputo, the embattled top spokesman of the cabinet department overseeing the coronavirus response, will take a leave of absence “to focus on his health and the well-being of his family,” the Department of Health and Human Services announced Wednesday.

Mr. Caputo’s science adviser, Dr. Paul Alexander, will be leaving the department.

The announcement came after a bizarre and inflammatory Facebook outburst on Sept. 13 and disclosures that he and his team had tried to water down official reports of the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention about the pandemic.

Mr. Caputo, a long-time Trump loyalist and the Department of Health and Human Services’s assistant secretary of public affairs, had apologized for his Facebook presentation to his staff and to Alex M. Azar II, the department’s leader, after his comments became public.

Since he was installed at the department last April by the White House, Mr. Caputo, a media-savvy former Trump campaign aide, has worked aggressively to develop a media strategy for dealing with the coronavirus pandemic. But critics, including some within the administration, complained that he was promoting the president’s political interests over public health.

His Facebook talk, which was shared with The New York Times, was filled with ominous predictions of left-wing “hit squads” plotting armed insurrection after the election and attacks on C.D.C. scientists, who he said had formed a “resistance unit” determined to undercut Mr. Trump’s chances of re-election. He accused the scientists of “rotten science” and said they “haven’t gotten out of their sweatpants” except to plot against the president at coffee shops.

Several high-ranking Democrats on Monday called for Mr. Caputo’s firing, including Senator Patty Murray of Washington, who helps lead a key health committee, and Representative Rosa DeLauro of Connecticut, who leads a subcommittee that funds health programs. On Tuesday, Senator Chuck Schumer, the minority leader, called on Mr. Azar to resign, saying “he’s been almost entirely silent about the chaos and mismanagement in his own agency.”

^ Think about it..an Administration that runs off Trumpie pharma-speed.. Cokefefe... and still can't get anything done. Is that wall finished yet?

I'd guess Jared is the only one sedated -- he looks like he's been stealing and poppin Ivanka's Xanax.

Many people are saying that Jared keeps his upper lip stiff by keeping a butt plug inserted at all times.

The funny thing about the Kelly Anne pic is that I'm guessing you didn't have to photochop her hair, Alan.

How's the 666 property that the Saudi's gave a pile dough going for Jared and his skeevy father?  Not many new companies opening up offices in downtown manhattan currently. 

did you catch Jimmy Carter's statement the other day about his son getting high with Willie Nelson on the White House roof?

Willie said it was a staffperson, but Jimmy said no, it was a his kid.

Now we got Don Jr snorting more lines than Dan Healy getting bribed for a board patch.

Lol

Caputo > Kaputo

 >>>>>Can we talk about Caputo?

It's Bryan! 

So glad to see he finally got a job with his hero Herr Trumpler.

Wait...I am being informed that he has been placed on "medical" leave.

Oh well, easy come, easy go, "Bryen".

Alan, I'd like commission a work involving Stephen Miller. Maybe something with swastikas.

Also, Junior's really got his grind going there.

I see him as Gollum.

Gollum with swastikas? That could work.
