Yasmeen Abutaleb, Lena H. Sun, Josh Dawsey and Rosalind S. Helderman report Top Trump health appointee Michael Caputo warns of armed insurrection after election:
A top communications official for the administration’s coronavirus response urged President Trump’s supporters to prepare for an armed insurrection after a contested election and accused government scientists of “sedition” in a Facebook Live chat that he described in detail to The Washington Post on Monday.
Michael Caputo, assistant secretary for public affairs at the Department of Health and Human Services, which is overseeing the coronavirus response, leveled the accusations and promoted other conspiracy theories in a Facebook Live event first reported by the New York Times. Caputo confirmed the authenticity of the video in comments he made to The Post.
….
In the Facebook video, Caputo criticizes government career scientists, the media and Democrats, the Times reported and Caputo confirmed. He said he was under attack by the media and that his “mental health has definitely failed.”
“I don’t like being alone in Washington,” Caputo said in the video, describing “shadows on the ceiling in my apartment, there alone, shadows are so long.”
Caputo also said the CDC, which is part of HHS, had a “resistance unit” that aimed to undermine Trump. Without offering any evidence, he also accused scientists “deep in the bowels of the CDC” of giving up on science and becoming “political animals.”
They “haven’t gotten out of their sweatpants except for meetings at coffee shops” to plot “how they’re going to attack Donald Trump next,” he said in the video. “There are scientists who work for this government who do not want America to get well, not until after Joe Biden is president.”
He also predicted that Trump would win the election but that Biden, the Democratic presidential nominee, would refuse to concede. “And when Donald Trump refuses to stand down at the inauguration, the shooting will begin,” he warned in the video. “The drills that you’ve seen are nothing. If you carry guns, buy ammunition, ladies and gentlemen, because it’s going to be hard to get.”
Meg Jones reports Marquette University students living at Schroeder Hall must quarantine for two weeks because of a coronavirus outbreak:
A cluster of coronavirus cases at a Marquette University dorm has prompted officials to quarantine the entire residence hall for two weeks.
Students living at Schroeder Hall at Marquette were notified late Monday that they must quarantine in their rooms starting at 10 p.m.
The university says 373 students live at Schroeder, one of the large dorms on the downtown Milwaukee campus, and 3% have tested positive for the coronavirus.
Schroeder Hall residents are asked to not move out or leave town for two weeks because of fears they could infect their families and home communities.
If students do choose to leave campus to quarantine, they must stay off Marquette property for 14 days and then must provide proof of a negative COVID-19 test within three days of their return to school.
