Emperor Fauci, Lord of the “Science”

I knew the first time I saw this pompous, egomaniacal jackass that he would be nothing but trouble for the citizenry, and he has fully lived up to expectations.  In several recent TV interviews, one of which was a disaster because he was challenged instead of fawned over, Lord Fauci has fully revealed what a disgracefully incompetent but patronizing, sanctimonious asshole he is.  This guy was a lifelong government bureaucrat for a reason–he gets paid a fortune, will have a huge pension and he never accomplishes anything, in fact he routinely makes whatever he works on worse.  Only in government can you hit the lottery like this.

In a Fox interview, Emperor Fauci was stumped by some hard questioning.  Okay, not hard questions, but real questions.  (Fox Video) The King of Epidemiology is easily irritated it turns out, by anyone who suggests he may have made a mistake or perhaps doesn’t understand epidemics as well as he should for someone who has been at it for so long.  He even looks annoyed on this clip that anyone could possible question anything he does.  He avoids a direct answer to the question of why we have vaccine or mask mandates.  He tries to pretend he never claimed vaccines would stop infections and transmission, and was played clips showing him saying just that.  He then says that, well, the virus evolved.  This supposedly superstar epidemiologist didn’t know that respiratory viruses might mutate and change.  He changed his story for the 100th time on the origin of the virus.

In a Q & A on his favorite channel, CNN, Tsar Fauci reacted to Sen. Paul’s intent to investigate him by saying he only recommended “common-sense” measures that “saved millions of lives”.  I rolled on the floor and nearly drowned with hysterical tears.  Can you be more grandiose?  Fauci must be a parody of the prototypical clueless government official; he can’t be real.

Asked about school lockdowns on a CNN show, he claimed he was never in favor of school lockdowns and believed we should keep them open “safely”.  That is untrue as you can find multiple clips of him supporting lockdowns and even recently he has said that we made a big mistake by not locking down harder, faster.  He also would clearly make people wear 20 masks all the time, despite evidence during the epidemic that he ignored this himself when enjoying a baseball game and in other settings.   Here he also claims that he was shocked to learn that immunity, whether from infection or a vaccination, might wane.  Uhhh, pretty standard immunology, Doc.  But he is a great, although unintentional comedian, as he states that he always listens to his detractors and the public.  Watch this particular clip to get a sense of what a mendacious piece of work he is.  (Rising Clip)

The real issue is that this genius is just stupid.  He is completely ignorant of basic epidemiology, virology and immunology.  Anyone with any common sense understanding of respiratory viruses and the epidemics they cause would have said–“guys, we are in for a tough time here, there is really no way to suppress a respiratory virus, so let’s don’t do extensive damage by going that futile route.  Let’s keep people in the normal routines, especially children as much as possible.  Let’s get a vaccine as soon as we can, but be realistic about the likelihood that a vaccine will provide any lasting protection.  We need to accept and adapt as best we can.  Humanity has survived many other respiratory viruses it will survive this one.”  Oh and he might have not funded gain of function research on coronaviruses in Chinese labs.

Among other things Fauci is a liar.  He routinely, as the examples I give here demonstrate, misleads about what he said or recommended earlier in the epidemic, then turns right around and in a forum he perceives as far friendlier, recommends exactly the same thing he denied favoring before.  This absolute scumbag, this epitome of a scumbag, should be forced to go on a tour of America and made to run gauntlets through citizens who can jeer him, throw used masks and vaccination needles at him and otherwise humiliate him.  It would be small recompense for the damage he has done to the country, to public health, to science, and most of all, to children.

And here is an update, Townhall compiles all the times Fauci did in fact advocate for lockdowns, including school closures.  (TH Article)
