So much for experts: Biden fires Trump-appointed advisory experts, prefers Soviet-style party hacks instead
By Monica Showalter
Joe Biden in his 2020 basement presidential campaign made a big deal about his quest of "unity" and the importance of taking the advice of "experts."
That's now a joke. It got obvious last week when we learned he chased out two top Food and Drug Administration research scientists, both strict non-partisans (I checked), from their positions, in a string of such exits. White House interference, specifically from truth-challenged White House chief science advisor, Dr. Anthony Fauci, was what he meant by 'experts.'
Now it gets worse. Turns out a whole host of unpaid Trump-appointed advisors on departmental advisory boards, with fixed three-year terms -- at Defense, Education, Homeland Security, and more -- have been fired. The boards are historically bipartisan -- "advisory bodies that can offer suggestions and a different perspective from service academy leadership on a variety of issues, ranging from diversity to education" as the Washington Times put it. Now they'e not.
