After Four Years of Democrat Treachery, I Smell a Coronavirus Rat
Dr. Anthony Fauci has some questionable models and even more questionable associations. Has he merely made mistakes? Or has he a worse problem?
Test time boys and girls. Hint…there is only one right answer—if you don’t get it right, you flunk! And so does America!
And the answer to every question is…
- Which person, foreign or American, predicted three years ago, in 2017, that President Trump would be challenged by a “surprise global-disease outbreak”?
- Enemy of Trump Cong. Adam Schiff (D-CA)
- Enemy of Trump House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA)
- Crazed enemy of Trump Hillary Clinton
Answer: None of the above. It was Dr. Anthony Fauci!
- Which person, foreign or American, wrote de facto love letters (actually e-mails) to Hillary Clinton through her lawyer Cheryl Mills, saying that he loved ole Hillary “more than ever”?
Oh, so Anthony Fauci knows it’s inconvenient! How considerate…not!
- Which person, foreign or American, said that the collapse of the American capitalist system as a result of the corona virus plague would be “inconvenient”?
- Xi Jing Ping, President of China
- Ali Khamenei, Supreme Leader of Iran
- Recep Tayyip Erdogan, President of Turkey
Answer: None of the above. It was Dr. Anthony Fauci!
- Which person, foreign or American, said on January 21, 2020, that the corona virus “was not a major threat to the United States” and on January 23rd downplayed the virus’ potential impact on the U.S?
- U.S. Surgeon General Jerome Adams
- TV host Dr. Mehmet Oz
- The entire staff of the NY Times
Answer: None of the above. It was Dr. Anthony Fauci!
Anthony Fauci joins the rogues’ gallery of “experts”
I could go on and on, but you get the point, which is that the “experts” are wrong or partisan or biased so often that healthy skepticism is warranted about everything they say.
Examples abound. Here is just a very very small sample:
- The DES disaster to prevent miscarriages in the 1950s-‘60s that resulted in devastating cancers of the reproductive organs of children.
- The tragedy of Thalidomide in the ‘60s to calm the nerves, that resulted in grotesque deformities in children born of pregnant mothers who took the pills.
- The Dalkon Shield intrauterine birth-control devices of the 1970s were taken off the market for causing sterility and pelvic inflammatory disease.
- Here are some of the drugs taken off the market over the years that caused horrific side effects or death after widespread recommendations by doctors.
- And let’s not forget Vioxx.
Model this!
Speaking of the people who occupy the podium with President Trump every day, there is the impressively credentialed Dr. Deborah Birx who apparently thinks she is still in a laboratory with rats on a treadmill and speaking with her research contemporaries instead of the American public when she intones about:
- “the level of granularity”
- “triangulation”
- “a big bolus”
- “logo-rhythmic bias”
- “mitigation”
I say to the good doctor the same thing I’ve said to every lawyer I’ve ever consulted: English please!
Anthony Fauci and Deborah Birx: two of a kind
Like Dr. Fauci, Dr. Birx delivers doomsday messages—and graphs—in dulcet tones. While Dr. Fauci predicts 100,000 to 200,000 deaths in the most dispassionate, clinical way, Dr. Birx shows us graphs with terrifying peaks of disease incidences and mortality and then “hopes” they don’t happen.
But in spite of the cozy embrace of Dr. Birx by far-left TV and print media whores like the NY Times, Vanity Fair, the list is endless, questions—unanswered questions—abound.
Hidden agenda → faulty model
Is it a coincidence that the model Dr. Birx uses to assess the progress of the virus—the IHME, Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation—is funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and that she, Dr. Birx, sits on the board of that foundation and has received mountains of money from that foundation?
Is there a hidden agenda about the fact that the IMHE has used the hot spots of New York and New Jersey to project the spread of the virus in the rest of the country, resulting in a shut-down of our economy and massive unemployment?
The failings of which surely presage…
There is good reason to question the IHME model, to the degree that writer and publisher of CanadaFreePress.com, Judi McLeod, has exhorted President Trump to Save the Western World by booting Dr. Birx off the Corona Virus Task Force! She cites an April 2nd Gateway Pundit story written by Cristina Laila revealing that the model the White House is relying on is “complete garbage.”
- “It Predicted 121,000 Americans Hospitalized; actual number: 31,142.
- “It predicted 1,716 people in Texas would be hospitalized; actual number: 196.
- “It predicted 2,777 people in Georgia would be hospitalized: actual number: 952.
- Virginia, predicted 607—actual number 305.
- Tennessee, predicted 2,214—actual number 200.
- New York, predicted 50,962—actual number 18,368.
Anthony Fauci and Deborah Birx now control the economy
According to writer Lee Cary, in his follow-the-money, must-read exposé of the corona virus and all its players—Fauci, Birx, the Clintons, Bill Gates, et al: “Today, two physicians essentially control the $22 trillion U.S. economy…It is time for President Trump to utilize his uncommon common sense and put a stop to this China-orchestrated full-scale attack on our country.”
Indeed….as Jim Hoft reports, the total U.S. deaths in March 2020 were actually down 15 percent from the average of the prior four years.
“What is going on?” Hoft asks. “After shutting down the government and killing the greatest economy in the world due to deathly estimates from specialists on the coronavirus, the data is showing that this may be one great big mistake or hoax.”
For perspective:
I can hear it now….
How dare you question the integrity and motives of Dr. Fauci and Dr. Birx, or suggest that their associations and political agendas are fishy, or imply that the institutions and experts they cite as unassailable vis-à-vis the corona virus—the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the World Health Organization (WHO)—are themselves tainted by partisan politics?
Well, thanks to the Democrats themselves, the answer to those questions are easy. Now we know that from 2009 to 2016, the man who occupied the Oval Office weaponized and politicized America’s most trusted institutions, not only defiling and disrespecting the Resolute Desk with his dirty shoes, but converting our most trusted institutions from departments dedicated to justice, law enforcement, national security, homeland security and matters of state into far-left operations designed to bring down America.
Here is the short list:
- John Brennan of the Central Intelligence Agency.
- James Comey of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
- Eric Holder and Loretta Lynch of the Justice Department.
- Hillary Clinton of the State Department.
(View this cartoon and accompanying article here.)
Obama holdovers
So no surprise that the guy with his feet on the Resolute Desk also contaminated the CDC and further befouled the already putrid cesspool on 2nd Avenue in NY City—the United Nations….and its reliably hate-America satellite, WHO.
Speaking of which, looky here: “The CDC openly admits that it is fudging the COVID-19 death figures,” reports Matthew Vadum. Quoting Dr. Annie Bukacek, M.D. and expert on death certificates, “The CDC counts both true COVID-19 cases and speculative guesses of COVID-19 the same…they automatically overestimate the real death numbers, by their own admission.”
Vadum said the same is true of the lying leftists who run New York City and NY State, Mayor Bill Di Blasio and Governor Andrew Cuomo respectively.
The doomsday set
Did you ever see a liberal smile…or laugh out loud? I can actually cite on one hand the times I’ve witnessed such a phenomenon. The reason is that this species seems to have extremely high anxiety levels. They worry about everything and they buy everything that the Chicken Little doomsday purveyors sell.
A short list of doomsday predictions which have not come to pass
In 1968, Stanford Univ. Professor Paul R. Ehrlich and his wife Anne wrote The Population Bomb. This work predicted worldwide famine in the 1970s and 1980s due to overpopulation. Liberals bought it.
In the 1970s, the “experts” said that global cooling would soon usher in a new ice age. Liberals bought it.
We all know about the ongoing fetish liberals have with global warming—that made a lot of quacks like Al Gore rich—same as the cooling fetish.
Then there was the scare over running out of food, natural resources like copper, and oil. Liberals bought it.
Now Anthony Fauci and company hand out another scare
Now we have liberals—including the experts from Mr. Obama’s CDC and WHO, as well as Drs. Fauci and Birx and the entire leftwing media—wringing their hands and tearing their hair out, absolutely convinced that unless the entire world and all their economies shut down, humanity is doomed.
Well, that’s not the real reason they’re in such visible throes of hysteria. The real reason is because they thought and hoped and chanted to the earth goddess Gaia that if they were able to destroy the best economy and highest employment in world history—among President Trump’s many astounding accomplishments—his reelection would be doomed.
But liberals always get it wrong
The problem is—liberals are always wrong! They’ve always been wrong! And to their everlasting horror, they were wrong about the presidential election that predicted a Hillary victory right up to 8 p.m. on November 8, 2016.
Then this Democrat cabal of America haters tried to destroy the president with the Russian hoax and the Stormy Daniels hoax and the Ukraine hoax and the impeachment hoax and all of them failed miserably.
So now their nemesis is in power and in charge, driving them even more clinically insane than they are ordinarily.
How President Trump does more than talk
In mere weeks, President Trump marshals national and international assistance from industry, organizations, political factions, and individuals that would qualify him for Five-Star General status. That is not hyperbole….this is a war, as he says, against an invisible enemy!
He touts the excellent results he’s heard about—which have since been widely affirmed—in treating corona virus patients with hydroxychloroquine, in combination with Azithromycin and zinc, and the experts on his task force talk about the constipated process of clinical trials and vaccine development that take years.
He embodies the qualities of an optimist, realistic about the present but genuinely positive about the future, and the doomsday liberals resort to their old standbys—gratuitous insults and popping their anti-depressant and anti-anxiety fixes.
A President rises to the challenge
He is presented with the kind of daunting existential challenges the likes of which George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, and Harry Truman faced, and he addresses them with executive confidence, a lifetime of success, and a burning love for America the Beautiful.
Thank you, Mr. President. With you at the helm, Americans are the luckiest people on the earth!

Would you believe Dr. Fauci is proposing this kind of future?

Heritage Picks Up the Pieces With Trump After Project 2025
… [A]ll the examples of drugs causing harm were taken if the market, or even stopped from coming to the market because of the testimony of experts…
Sir, I’ve given you chances to express yourself properly, politely, and truthfully. The small snippet of your original comment that you will observe is the only comment of substance you made. Everything else I removed, at my editorial discretion. About which things that I removed, the less said, the better.
Now: I daresay I am closer to being an expert than are you. For your information, I am a Doctor of Medicine and a former Laboratory Administrator in 250-bed community hospitals. I happen to be conversant with most of the cases of the drugs taken off the market that my contributor mentioned. And I will say, for the benefit of anyone else reading this, that in every case, the taking-off-the-market process began, not with any expert noticing that anything was wrong, but with patient after patient complaining of deleterious side effects. And the medical profession, except perhaps for their own doctors, reacted in all the stages normally attributed to grief: denial, umbrage, bargaining attempts (“is the side effect really as bad as that for everyone,” etc.), handwringing, and finally acquiescence that some among them, namely the FDA, had blundered badly and the only way to repair the blunder was to take the drug off the market.
I’ll give you an example: Fosamax (R). It was on the market for the treatment of osteoporosis. My own mother’s doctor prescribed it to her. And then she noticed her breaking out in bruises and blotches all over her skin.
In fact she developed a nasty case of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura. And her doctor huffed and puffed, citing the Insert that all drug makers furnish with every drug they sell, and pleading, “Well it doesn’t mention it!” My mother had to persist, and then I had to weigh in, saying, in effect, “My mother is suffering from ITP. And she never suffered from ITP until she started to take this Fosamax stuff you prescribed. Hasn’t it occurred to you that there is a first patient to report every side effect? And that you might be managing just that first patient?” Finally the doctor took the point, withdrew the medication, and tried another. The bruises and blotches went away.
Incredibly, Fosamax remains on the market. This page in drugs.com lists “skin rash” as a “rare” side effect. Skin rash, balderdash. That was a case of ITP, or there’s no such thing as ITP.
Now to the matter at hand: anyone reading the article will not be able to fail to notice that the author sourced it thoroughly. In addition to which I happen to know that the Institute for Health Markers and Evaluation (University of Washington) first tried to revise downward their dire projections of morbidity and mortality, and then removed all such statistics from their page on COVID-19. They don’t want to admit that they contributed to a Hollywood-worthy scare that has brought about public policies that are ten times worse than the reality. The policies match the scare but not the real thing.
I do not know what your own motives are. Nor do I care. But if I have to make another such extensive edit to any comment you leave, I will save myself any further trouble and ban you from any further commenting. I am not running a social medium. And I am definitely not running a wholly-owned or -controlled subsidiary of the Chinese news agency Xinhua, or the Chinese Ministry of State Security, or the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, or the Tides Foundation or any other Foundation of which George Soros is the principal financier. Nor of the Communist Party of the USA nor any other Party that might have co-opted its platform, in whole or in part. And I do not have time to waste on mendacious commenters who apologize for would-be dictators.
Let that suffice.
Thats a long winded reply for a guy with no time…I’ll have to read it when I actually have time and am not working.
I took the time then, in order to say in one sitting what I all too often have to say in ten. Don’t test my resolve.
