From The Buffalo News:
Roswell Park VP fired over anti-Trump Facebook posts
That’s putting it mildly.
Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center has terminated a top executive for Facebook posts that bashed President Trump’s response to the Covid-19 outbreak.
Laura Krolczyk, Roswell Park’s vice president for external affairs, was initially placed on administrative leave from her position but was fired following the conclusion of an investigation into her remarks, spokeswoman Annie Deck-Miller confirmed Saturday.
This woman is a VP at a medical center.
Both Krolczyk and LaTrovato worked for Democratic elected officials before moving into their positions at the medical and research organizations: Krolczyk for Hillary Clinton and Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand and LaTrovato for Louise Slaughter.
So she is a DNC operative with a nice sinecure.
The exchange – according to screen grabs posted by Caputo – began when Krolczyk posted a link to an article by the Hill news site about the Trump administration’s reluctance to pay $1 billion to General Motors and Ventec for ventilator production.
Krolczyk shared the article with a comment: “Vote Trump.”
LaTrovato responded: “But will waste more than that on a wall and space force.”
Krolczyk replied: “Trump supporters need to pledge to give up their ventilators for someone else … and not go to the hospital.”
LaTrovato responded: “I think they should be the only ones in packed churches on Sunday.”
Krolczyk then said: “They should barricade themselves in there and ride this out.”
This is a woman with a medical center who is encouraging Trump voters to not go to the hospital and refuse ventilators if they become seriously ill with COVID-19.
Let me reiterate, this is a senior-level manager with a medical center that got caught saying that life-saving health care should be metered out depending on the politics of the patient.
It’s good that she got fired. She will probably fail upwards to another position with the DNC.
What is bad is that it shows you that there are people like this in health care, and it makes you wonder if in a place like NYC, if the ventilator rationing comes, will some admin secretly go through your Facebook or Twitter or even get a contact with the state board of elections to determine if you are a Trump Supporter or a Republican and come up with some bullshit excuse as to why they need to take your ventilator away.
They want you dead because you stand in the way of their utopia. Never forget that.
Let me reiterate, this is a senior-level manager with a medical center that got caught saying that life-saving health care should be metered out depending on the politics of the patient.
But everything will be awesome when the government controls your health care.
