Scarf Lady says she will retire after ‘overwhelming' holiday travel scandal
[NYP] WASHINGTON — Dr. Deborah Birx has announced she plans to retire after being outed on Sunday for not following her own holiday travel guidance, calling the experience "overwhelming."

In an interview with Newsy, the White House coronavirus task force coordinator said she would help the incoming Biden administration but then planned to head for the exits.

"I want the Biden administration to be successful," Birx said, noting that she has worked in the federal government since the Reagan administration in 1980.

"I will be helpful in any role that people think I can be helpful in and then I will retire," she went on.

"I will have to say, as a civil servant, I will be helpful through a period of time, and then I will have to say, this experience has been a bit overwhelming. It has been very difficult on my family ... I think what was done over the last week to my family."

#1 Actually deserves (a little bit) more respect than 99% of her fellow swampies: at least she has the decency to resign after humiliating herself.

Can't say the same for Newsom Cuomo Pelosi Chiraq-Beetlejuice London-Broil or the dozens of other hypocrites stinking up political office from coast to coast

#2 "she has worked in the federal government since the Reagan administration in 1980."

#3 Although she was easier to take than that slob Fauxi, I will gladly bid her "good riddance". Just another Washington hack.
