Senator Rand Paul confronted Dr. Anthony Fauci today about his history of false claims, lies and manipulative statements surrounding the COVID-19 virus and direction for U.S. mitigation efforts. It’s about time someone called the baby ugly.
Anthony Fauci, a political ideologue and leftist advocate, was the primary government influence that has led to trillions in economic damage and impacted the lives of all Americans with false assertions and brutally political virus mitigation efforts.
.
COVID-19 hype was a political effort with assistance from U.S. media.
“Fish do not know they are in water” ~Sundance
Uhm… These numbers do not reflect the need for economic lockdowns. We could open things up tomorrow and stop wearing masks and go back to normal. Yes, a lot of people will get sick and will need to quarantine. But the death rate and hospitalization rates are so low it doesn’t matter. Those at risk still need to be extra cautious and no employer should force someone back to to work without allowing them to continue to work from home for their own safety. But most people can return to normal right now. It is a good thing the virus spreads and people recover. A spike in the infection rate is entirely expected. But that doesn’t mean a spike in hospitalization and deaths. Continuing with the lockdown merely extends the life of the virus. The only way to defeat this virus is herd immunity. A vaccine may only be really necessary for those at the greatest risk. A vaccine should not be forced upon people. The young and healthy have little to fear about this virus as they will most assuredly recover and develop an immunity. Again, the numbers do not reflect the catastrophic shutdown of the economy. It is only due to politics and the upcoming election that it has been allowed to continue. Dr Fauci is lying. It’s not like this is Ebola where people bleed from every oriface and their internal organs literally liquify and the death rate is astronomically high.
Yes, the virus was very deadly when it first arrived on American shores and many have died. But the virus has mutated into a weaker form of the virus and I sincerely doubt that any vaccine can stop all the mutations. I know many nurses and doctors who watched people die and I know that most all those nurses and doctors contracted the virus. Some experiencing far worse symptoms than others. Only one of hundreds was hospitalized and she survived despite serious health issues. I know many even elderly in their late 80’s and 90’s that tested positive and either were never sick or only mildly sick. Including one who died of heart failure but that’s because his heart valve was failing and he was too frail for another surgery. I bet he was classified as a COVID-19 death when that had nothing to do with it. He was 95 years old! His heart was going to fail regardless and he showed no symptoms of COVID-19 despite the positive test. His time was up and that was that.
JB, you are right. I’m so sick of the media not looking for anything other than ways to blame everything on Pres. Trump. At least Sen. Paul can look at all this gobblety gook & understand what he’s looking at & what’s a lie.
Why do we have 80-yr. olds running our health agencies?
I’m hoping Pres. Trump trounces Biden on the China virus at the debate next week that Biden’s not going to attend.
Oh, something more. The House passed a resolution that it is racist (discriminatory) to call the virus the China virus, Chinese virus, Kung Flu or to accuse China of intentionally releasing the virus on the world blah, blah, blah….
China must have threatened to cut off Pigliosi’s allowance or cancel contracts with her husband’s company.
No comment whether the House will call out university/ college admission committees who discriminate against Asian Americans in favor of minorities because Asians are smarter than minorities.
Piglosi just can’t do without those Chinese slops, the hog, but she’d better realize in the porcine brain of hers the pork is the most popular meat in China.
They are defending China because THEY are the real culprits (most likely via CIA connections, which has been at the heart of the operational darkness throughout the “get Trump” movement), or put the Chinese up to it. This was Impeachment 2.0, immediately following the failure of Impeachment 1.0.
No, it was Hunter Biden who pressured Congress to not condemn the Chinese because his Chinese Business interests are threatened. Hunter got it done.
Dr. Lee Merrit spoke at the Doctors for Disaster Preparedness last August. Watch the lecture. She talked about many aspects of the Covid 19 response and the suppression of using Hydroxychloroquine to cure it. Countries that used HCQ early: 88.3 deaths per million –Countries that did not use HCQ 649.9 deaths per million. Faucci has committed crimes against humanity.
Dr. Merrit also called this an unconventional war to sway geopolitical power. Please share this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjYvitCeMPc&feature=youtu.be
Biologic warfare in it’s most simple terms, delivered by low tech, massive person to person infection which began in a chineses bio level 4 lab.
I wish that Rand had brought up the HCQ/Zinc use by countries with low death rates. It makes me mad that the US sabotaged the use of HCQ to nip covid in the bud — we could have saved so many lives, and avoided the lockdown madness…
I totally agree. One question I do have, that no one has seemed to ask-most or I can prol say all of the people that die with a covid diagnosis die of pneumonia. The majority with co-morbidities and elderly – still pneumonia.
At 60 yrs old we are pushed to get a pneumonia vaccine, every single senior in a nursing house is mandated to have a pneumonia vaccine.
If they have all been vaccinated for “pneumonia” how come they are dying from “pneumonia” and I wonder if there is a correlation between those with pneumonia vaccines vs those not vaccinated and the covid recovery or death rate.
It would seem if you were vaccinated against getting pneumonia that you wouldn’t get it with or without covid.
Possibly the pneumonia vaccine is only for bacteria pneumonia vs viral I do not know but something that needs to be explained.
I HATE FAUCI.
Fauci’s the Vindman of the CDC. Dr. Pepper has more medical credibility.
namberak: ” Dr. Pepper has more medical credibility.” lmao… The Doctors and Nurses, (the boots on the ground) are actually doing the work, while this guy is ignoring the results of their work… in order to remain at the top of the heap, politically.
FAUX-ci
How suave and de- boner Fauci looks with his new contact lenses, his nice new hairdo. Neither goes well with the vomit that continues to spew from his mouth. Just wishing we were back in the days of Laurel and Hardy, or Max Groucho where someone would put a cane around his neck and yank him off the stage for his bad act (s). He is irrelevant anymore. If he ever was. Fauci has had more than his “15 minutes” of fame. I can’t wait for the day when “The Donald” says “You’re FIRED!”
And Senator Rand Paul please keep up what you know is right and just regarding disease. That you continue to confront the many headed snake of Fakesi is a balm to my mind and spirit.
This is who POTUS should have chosen to head up the Corona virus task force. He actually knows something about viruses AND currently sees patients. Further he knows what the fed gov under Mueller was capable of. He was a target in 2001 of both Mueller’s FBI AND the press. He sued and won 4 million which he then took to Africa and did research on viruses.

“Public servants” in the NIH, NIAID, CDC, etc. receive a share of royalties from Big Pharma, for patents obtained from government research, with the participation of these “public servants”.
Conflict of interest?

Lies, deceit, cronyism, plagiarism all in a days’ work at NIH. Fauci has survived in this milieu for ~ 50 years. He is well qualified for his job.
Definitely! I thought it used to be illegal.
Both fauxci & gates own patents on vaccines with big pharma thru the CDC. Follow the $$
We know that only 10% or so of those who died from the virus did NOT have a pre-existing comorbidity. We know that in places like NYC and such there are many on welfare who suffer from obesity, where smoking is common, where healthy lifestyles are not as common as they are elsewhere such as in Idaho or South Dakota where the death rate was very low. Why is no one asking whether or not we brought on this higher mortality rate upon ourselves by or poor lifestyle choices, by packing our elderly into nursing homes with poor oversight, etc. Yes, I know there is far more crowding in places like NYC that would enhance the progression of a communicable disease, but still this issue of lifestyle choices would all seem an obvious connection to make. Unfortunately, we are not allowed to criticize our life style choices nor are we allowed to criticize those suffering from obesity and other significant comorbidities because it reflects badly on those with “gland problems”. Perhaps some honesty and forcing people to start taking responsibility for their own welfare and health is in order as a lesson learned from this virus. After all, think of how differently this “pandemic” would have played out if everyone walked instead of riding in a car, ate homecooked nutritious meals instead of fat laden and greasy fast food, did not smoke, and so forth.
I can’t find the reference now so I’m loathe to bring it up, but I read an analysis in the last week or so that indicated that the death rate without a co-morbidity was actually about 0.5%, that even that 10% number most of us use is wrong. But as I say, I can’t find it now so, take that 1/2 with a full grain of salt.
The exact number depends upon how quickly the infected person is treated, and how effective the treatment — the healthcare industry has not shown itself to be competent, overall, or even honest in too many cases, with the rampant political “weaponization” we see being played out, on the part of the Insane Left and complicit Invested Globalists — just so many cockroaches in critical positions, like Fauci, attacking us.
10% is way too high, by about a factor of 100. If 99% are unaffected, and of those seriously affected only 2% die, the death rate would be 0.02%, or about 60,000 out of 300 million (I predicted 40,000 to 80,000, in comments here). I am using numbers that were in fact reported early on***; they have been all over the map since, as lies oft-told and retold. But again, the devil is in those details I mentioned.
My estimate, from reported numbers, back in April:
my April 17 2020 comment
Agreed. Zinc + Ionophore (such as Hydroxychloroquine or Quercetin) given to ‘high-risk ‘patients as a prophylaxis or early intervention, is the GAME CHANGER.
FauXI and his CDC stooges have done NOTHING to promote this lifesaving, breakthrough treatment!
In fact, FauXI went out of his way to “debunk” and even to criminalize dispensing a drug that’s been in use for some sixty years with FDA *approval* for off-label use.
WHY FAUXI WHY ??
The PCR test overwhelmingly used for Covid detection is extremely questionable with a very high rate of false positives. I was very much hoping the Paul would have asked FauChi if, in hindsight, would it have better or at least as protective to isolate the “at risk” population rather than the economically catastrophic lockdown measures you recommended?
They always run out of time when the questions get good.
Cleetus… I agree.
This is what is in store for us when they start really pushing the global warming farce down our throats. Only essential driving. Each family can have one car and it has to be green certified, each house can have 5 lights in their home, no more use of lawn mower, etc. etc. etc. The hammer needs to be dropped on this shit right now. This nanny state crap is killing our country and our freedom and is the proverbial camels nose under the tent. Do Not Comply.
I agree.
Fauci absolutely hates Rand Paul — did you see the death stare? Could the reason be that Dr. Paul is actually a real doctor?
If you can find the video of Dr. Sunetra Gupta online discussing the Covid “myths,” it’s worth watching. One of the myths she addresses is the concept that we are nowhere close to herd immunity. Fauci obviously embraces that myth wholeheartedly.
If plain old soap and water can kill Covid-19, why the heck do I need a vaccine for??????????
/sarc off
I knew (with my enhanced super-senses) that Fauci was just the political reincarnation of Super-duper, Ultralite Colonel Vindman (with 16 vitamins and minerals) from early on. The smug look on his face while telling his lies — all day, every day — was the tell. Just like with Obama, as a matter of fact (the “snowflakes” who believed and still believe in Obama, should not be allowed outside alone, much less voting for President). The trademark phrase of the Insane Left should be understood to be “Here I come to save the day!” (…”that means that Mighty Mouse is on his way!”)
And the would-be impeachers made sure even the President fell for it. There weren’t enough of us determined non-mask-wearers to stem the tide. (Because this is — and here is the money point in all of this — this is just part of a general, climactic testing of mankind, which, so long as it goes on, will show mankind failing, in its adherence to false dogmas over good, honest reason.)
“Fish do not know they are in water…….” ~Sundance
And therefore don’t know what P*SS tastes like.
Paul put forward great information on “cross reactivity”.
Never made sense that a “NOVEL” virus (one that the human species has never encountered before and therefore have NO IMMUNITY) didn’t wipe out WAY more people, in fact the opposite…
most people appear to have NO SYMPTOMS i.e. have no problem overcoming the infection before becoming symptomatic.
Not only could this cross reactivity explain the lower rates in the Far East….but could explain
High positives
False positives
Apparently abnormally high numbers of people with positive antibody tests.
Fauci’s response to Paul’s “cross reactivity” was WEAK
ONE STUDY
We have already seen TWO of the biggest medical journals (NEJM, Lancet) WITHDRAW Covid studies based on faulty/no data.
There are 1000’s of papers on the validity of “cross reactivity”
What is Dr. Fauci’s explanation for the relatively
LOW DEATH RATE
LOW RATE OF SYMPTOMATICS
for this NOVEL virus?
Remember, it’s just theater. One man tells the world to shut down? No, one man gets paid to take the heat, nothing more.
If fish don’t know they are in water? When you take them out, they know.
Take off the mask, and you will see what the fish see except, we won’t die.
What would our National death rate be if we stripped out all the elderly Cwomo and the east coast libtards killed in nursing homes?
have you noticed that Fauci pretty much stays quiet until the hysteria over the chinee flu starts to die down and democrats need to whip it up again?
“Dr.” Fraud-ci. What a joke of man.
Some months ago I astrologically predicted that Trump will win this election and I still stand by that. But I am not sure that counts if not accepted by the other side. Covid is NOT the number one issue in the country now. One could ask how it could get any darker and dirtier than it is. I say now it will and God help us all since not only is half the country against America and her patriots, so isn’t most of the world.
This link proves that Fauci is lying when he says study showed there is no cross immunity. Skip the first 2 min as it is an old update on the virus numbers around the world.
Rand Paul did a great job bringing out those statistics.
Notice Fauci tried to say Paul’s information was false, but had no evidence to support his assertion?
That’s because his decisions have had no basis in fact. This is all a scam to get people clamboring for his depopulation, mind control vaccines. Buyer beware!
Rush just mentioned The Conservative Treehouse and the incredible work they do.
Fauci should be investigated why NIH grant went China virus lab.
Down here, Tony “The Fraud” Fauci’s Lucifer-purchased soul hangs proudly next to Hillary’s sulfur-soaked soul. Trust me, it’s not a pretty sight. 👿
Rep. Louis Gohmert (R-TX) with Sen Rand Paul (R-Ky) interview Yale epidemiologist Dr. Harvey Risch, family physician Dr. George Fareed, and infectious disease Dr. Stephen Smith.
It is worth a watch:
COVID-19 and Medical Freedom: A Congressional Inquiry.
Nit that I like Fauci a bit…
But he did well in his responses. He is skilled in debate.
But he didn’t win any points.
Actually, the liberal media is reporting it as Fauci hammering Rand and putting him in his place, as opposed to our seeing it as Rand buttonholing Fauci and bringing up inconvenient truths…
Fauci is a disgusting hack. He is responsible, along with Redfield and Hahn, for tens of thousands of deaths due to his lies about hydroxychloroquine, which is a preventative and a cure. They should all lose their MD licenses – not that Fauci ever actually used his.
Fauci is a participant in trying to destroy the economy to help his democrat friends win the election.
Sorry. Rand Paul is making a fool of himself.
Things which must be taken into account when comparing countries or states in terms of their success in minimizing the effects of COVID-19:
* Population density
* % Black population (higher mortality)
* Average age
* Island (or nearly an island)
* Cultural norms of conformity
* Strong states vs. Federal govt.
* Vitamin D exposure
* HCQ use
* When they got first infection
* How open the borders
* How seniors are cared for
* Sex rates and number of partners
* Fake news effect
* Privacy limits
* Data credibility
* Lying about contact tracing
* Which “type” of coronavirus dominated
* Comorbidities
* Population density distribution
* Transportation mechanisms
* Average BMI
And of course you have to wait until the end of the coronavirus everywhere to know how a country performed overall. Infections are likely to return to most places that have it under control.
Right. And common sense fits in where?
Ad Rem, mea culpa. I have not read this thread. I’m commenting only to say that dr. fauci has completely destroyed my trust of public health agencies, including the local boards threatening physicians and pharmacists for prescribing hydroxychloroquine (HCQ).
Fauci is a political hack working to benefit the democrat party! Shutting down the country for the 6 months prior to a Presidential election, with a sitting Republican President, is very much to the democrat’s benefit. Fauci is also a Hillary devotee! Considering what the democrats have done over the last 6 months to destroy this country, how could you believe a word out of his mouth.
