The entire quote;

"Obviously, you need to take it seriously, and do the kinds of things that the CDC and the Department of Homeland Security are doing, ” Fauci responded. “But, this not a major threat for the people of the United States, and this is not something that the citizens of the United States right now should be worried about.”

Square that with the US currency and the interstate commerce clause.

I mean...if we're being technical...those are explicitly reserved for the federal government in the body of the Constitution.

A trained monkey would have done better.

The Defense Production Act of 1950 (Pub.L. 81–774) is a United States federal law enacted on September 8, 1950 in response to the start of the Korean War.[1] It was part of a broad civil defense and war mobilization effort in the context of the Cold War. Its implementing regulations, the Defense Priorities and Allocation System (DPAS), are located at 15 CFR §§700 to 700.93. Since 1950, the Act has been reauthorized over 50 times.[1] It has been periodically amended and remains in force

Enacted to deal with external threats...

I'm not saying the federal government shouldn't help...but the burden is specifically, and purposefully, left with the states.

WHO declared it a global health emergency on Jan. 30 2020.

Somewhere I thought I read WHO having made an earlier statement in Dec 19, but I might be wrong.
- Der Kaiser

I think that Dec 19 was around the time that China first told them about it.
Edit;. And January 30 when they declared it an emergency, but they also recommended against banning travel...

Whelp, isn't this an external threat?

Lol... that’s rich coming from you boomer
- jdfitz77

All right, that's enough.

- Michael Pachla

EXACTLY.

Which is why the burden is on the STATES and the federal government is playing an advisory/support role!

EDIT: I misread...but this is no longer an external threat when it is in our communities.

So not Trumps fault.

Trump did enact it. Ventilators on the way.

If he's gonna effusively praise himself for the good things that have happened then his feet are to the fire when things go wrong. That's the price of leadership.

Only the feds, specifically the pres, can enact it.
- Michael Pachla

I'm not arguing that. But he did it in a support role.

My point is that the burden to deal with this, at this point, rests with the states.

- Alex the Great

Yeah. He did enact it, but waited days to enforce it. And, as for those ventilators, 100,000 are expected to be ready...

In June.

Too little, too late.

So he should of enacted law in December and forced companies to make 100,000 ventilators before one person in US was diagnosed. Yeah ok...
