A former Trump campaign official now spokesman for the US health department sought to change key reports on the coronavirus pandemic, in some cases openly complaining that they would undermine the presidents optimistic messages about the outbreak, according to internal emails seen by Politico.
The official, Michael Caputo, told the website he was attempting to stymie ulterior deep state motives in the bowels of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, or CDC.
