Gestapo” trended nationwide on Twitter on Monday after https://www.rawstory.com/2020/12/covid-whistleblower-rips-florida-governor-after-raid-by-state-police-they-pointed-guns-at-my-kids/ - Florida state police raided the home of a COVID-19 whistleblower .

Former Department of Health data scientist Rebekah Jones posted video of the raid on Twitter, with harsh words for Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL).


There will be no update today. 


At 8:30 am this morning, state police came into my house and took all my hardware and tech.  


They were serving a warrant on my computer after DOH filed a complaint.


They pointed a gun in my face.  They pointed guns at my children.

 “I have no qualms about being a ‘sports guy’ moonlighting as a COVID-19 analyst.”


Ron DeSantis examined the sparse resume and erroneous assertions of Kyle Lamb and saw attributes lesser executives might have missed.

It must have been Lamb’s dazzling combination of inexperience and inexpertise that convinced the governor to hire a sports-blogger-turned-Uber-driver from Columbus, Ohio, to analyze Florida’s pandemic stats (bypassing 700,000 unemployed Floridians, some of whom surely boast a comparable dearth of public-health literacy)


Fact is, I’m not an ‘expert.’ I’m not a doctor, epidemiologist, virologist or scientist,” Lamb wrote on his internet site, Beyond the Fold. “I also don’t need to be. Experts don’t have all the answers.”


Still, several of his fellow Ohio State sports journalists and bloggers told the Herald that they were surprised that Lamb, of all people, had been plucked out of obscurity by the governor of Florida. They described him (Lamb, not DeSantis … though … ) as “unhinged,” “a crackpot,” “an Internet weirdo,” “rank conspiracy theorist” and “amateur, basement epidemiologist.” The very virtues that captured the governor’s heart.


Over the last few months, the sports guy has made the oh-so-natural transition to COVID-19 fulminator. “As the world has changed … like many I’ve been forced to change with it,” he wrote on Beyond the Fold. “I embrace this. I have no qualms about being a ‘sports guy’ moonlighting as a COVID-19 analyst.”
