Donor to the Wuhan Lab Personally Thanked Anthony Fauci For (Falsely) Claiming The Science Disproved the Lab Leak Theory

Buzzfeed FOIA'd Fauci's emails, and a heavily redacted version of them is now being reported on. Washington Post also FOIA'd them, I think.

A savvy friend observed that the Buzzfeed and "Democracy Dies in Darkness LOL" FOIA'd the emails in the first place, no doubt, to find dirt on Trump -- Trump bellowing "I DON'T CARE WHAT SCIENCE SAYS! TURN THOSE MACHINES BACK ON NOW!" -- but, having found nothing of that kind, they now turn to attempting to whitewash Fauci, claiming the emails show that he is a brave civil servant standing up to crazy critics:

Anthony Fauci's Emails Reveal The Pressure That Fell On One Man

Thousands of pages of communications obtained by BuzzFeed News show how Fauci tried to keep Americans calm and develop an effective strategy despite conflicts with the Trump administration.

The Washington Post played it the exact same way: Poor brave Fauci!

Anthony Fauci's pandemic emails: 'All is well despite some
crazy people in this world'

Fauci's correspondence from March and April 2020, obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, offers a peek into his world during the frantic early days of the coronavirus crisis

So: apparently the emails do not contain anything like Trump screaming that he WANTS PEOPLE TO GET COVID!

If they did, we'd have a third impeachment hearing already scheduled.

In fact, they must have been very sad that the emails they found had Fauci saying he was not "muzzled at all" by the Trump administration.

A woman citizen -- not a polico -- had written to Fauci, spreading her own misinformation, certainly gotten from the Blue Anon conspiracy channels like CNN and MSNBC:

"I understand Vice President Pence has ordered you to not inform the public about Coronavirus without approval. This is quite terrifying, especially since Trump has already shown his desire to spread false or incomplete information about this public health crisis," the woman wrote.
She had tracked down Fauci's email, which is not easily accessible on government websites, because she had a pressing question: "I'm planning to fly domestically TOMORROW [REDACTED]. Is it safe??"
Of course, Fauci had urgent matters of his own to attend to, but he replied to the stranger anyway the next day. "There is much misinformation," he wrote back. "I actually have not been muzzled at all by the Vice President. And BTW, it is safe to fly domestically [REDACTED]."

What a hero for responding to a Rachel Maddow Super-Fan's email, huh?

And note that Fauci told her, sure, use the airlines as you will.

This is early-days of covid, but it is worth noting that Fauci was blithely dismissive of the covid threat.

And if Trump seemed to dismiss the threat -- well, he was relying on Fauci's reading of "THE SCIENCE" for that.

So instead, the emails are being reported on in an effort to rehabilitate the badly-discredited Fauci.

It falls, then, to right-leaning organizations like the Daily Caller to actually read the emails with a critical eye.

Dr. Peter Daszak founded EcoHealth Alliance. It is through EcoHealth Alliance that Fauci donated US taxpayer money to the Wuhan lab for research Fauci claims is not gain-of-function, and yet which is called gain-of-function by experts not named Fauci.

One might say that EcoHealth Alliance helped "launder" US money to Wuhan.

And the Daily Caller has found emails from Daszak to Fauci personally thanking him for debunking this crazy, insane, totally conspiratorial theater that covid was created in, and released from, the same Wuhan lab that Daszak was funneling US grant money to.

EcoHealth Alliance President Dr. Peter Daszak personally thanked Dr. Anthony Fauci in April 2020 for throwing water on the COVID-19 lab leak theory during a White House press briefing.
The email was part of a 3,200-page batch of Fauci's emails obtained by BuzzFeed News through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit.
A large portion of Daszak's email to Fauci was redacted with a FOIA exemption indicating the text could reasonably be expected to interfere with law enforcement proceedings.

Um, what? Law enforcement proceedings?

Oh you mean the DOJ coverup of Fauci's perjury and Daszak's role in the scheme. Cover-ups are now "law enforcement proceedings" which justify the redaction of information the US taxpayer paid for and has the right to see.

Carry on.

The thankings continued.

Daszak personally thanked Fauci in the email for the bravery he exhibited during a White House press briefing the day prior when he said the novel coronavirus exhibits features that are "totally consistent" with an animal to human origin and that don't point to lab manipulation.

Fauci's comments were framed at the time by media outlets such as Business Insider as a rejection of the lab leak "conspiracy theory."

"I just wanted to say a personal thankyou on behalf of our staff and collaborators, for publicly standing up and stating that the scientific evidence supports a natural origin for COVID-19 from a bat-to-human spillover, not a lab release from the Wuhan Institute of Virology," Daszak wrote to Fauci.

"Collaborators" here refers to the Chinese Wuhan lab researchers Daszak was working with/funneling US taxpayer money to, including Dr. Zenglii, the notorious "Bat Lady" who was genetically modifying the exact same bat coronaviruses which then became the base genetic code for the hybrid mutant human-infecting covid-19.

Coincidentally enough!

"From my perspective, your comments are brave, and coming from your trusted voice, will help dispel the myths being spun around the virus' origins," Daszak added.

It does indeed take a brave man to lie with such seeming conviction and such complete disregard for the consequences of that lie.

The below is old news -- mentioned in this article as background information -- but it's new to me. I didn't know this, or, probably, I knew it briefly and then forgot it.

Daszak was quite the busy beaver in putting out the word to the media to attack the lab leak theory as a "conspiracy theory" -- to, as he admits, protect his Chinese "collaborators" from online criticism!

Well, at least if you're organizing a massive censorship campaign to deny the public highly relevant and vital health information for a good reason like protecting cronies from online criticism, I can see how this is another justifiable Noble Lie.

Daszak orchestrated a statement published in The Lancet medical journal in February 2020 prior to any serious research on the origins of COVID-19 condemning "conspiracy theories" that suggest the virus doesn't have a natural origin. Daszak later admitted through a spokesman that he organized the statement to protect Chinese scientists from online criticism.

I mean... It's incredible. It's absolutely incredible.

It is incredible -- and a horrifying statement about where this country is -- that these people are not currently being pursued by a grand jury.

Below, a British medical official (I think) named Jeremy Farrar brings an article to Fauci's attention -- an article from that conspiratorial Zero Hedge, making the Debunked Conspiracy Theory claim that covid came from the Wuhan lab.

We can't see Fauci's redacted reply.

Any guesses? Perhaps something like organizing a joint letter to social media platforms demanding that this Spreader of Debunked Conspiracy Theories be deplatformed for being right?

They are empowered to lie with impunity, but you are to be punished for telling the truth.

This is *how* one can lie with such conviction, Ace. One man telling a lie is at risk of the lie being exposed. One man lying in such a way that *everyone* repeats it is much less risky. The ownership of all press (and entertainment and other media) by the Left is precisely the force multiplier that makes this possible. All lies become Big Lies.

29 The Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg emailed NIAID director Anthony Fauci in the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic to thank him for his "leadership" during the pandemic, and alert him to the rollout of Facebook's coronavirus information hub, which artificially boosted "authoritative" information about the virus.

The emails show Zuckerberg requesting a video Q&A with Fauci, because, in the Facebook founder's words, "people trust and want to hear from our experts rather than just a bunch of agencies and political leaders."

30 White House people are rumored contemplating "exiting" Fauci, over these emails. What will really be interesting is when the Chinese intel people start considering more serious options.

Jeb threw away $150 million in 2016 to get laughed out of SC, which he really, really earnestly tried to win but ended up 4th with 7.8%.

It was obvious very early that he wasn't going to go anywhere with voters, but he still had all that donor cash and probably took in a whole bunch after it was obvious.

I have seen nothing to tell me that the Republican donor class of leftist corporatists have learned anything in the past 5 years. They will do the same, but they'll be unable to coalesce around one candidate. 2024 is going to be the inverse of the normal pattern. There will be one MAGA candidate that will watch the cadre of establishment candidates eating each other to be the anti-MAGA candidate.

And the entire absurd, fact-free, vicious response by the "press" and others to Trump's handling of the virus situation (which was clearly a full-force, responsible and sincere effort to do everything possible, based on technical advice he was receiving) was just Katrina X 10,000,000.

Based on what I saw, Trump followed every single recommendation of the (technically incompetent) Task Force, which was entirely based on the views of the key technical members - after initially over-ruling them at least once, at the outset, *in the direction of over-reaction* (travel bans).

There was that incident at a daily briefing where Fauci bristled at an idiotic suggestion by one "reporter" that he was being muzzled - how TF does that not completely deflate this idiotic, baseless political nonsense?

Well, in a degraded country with an unthinking uninformed population, that's how it goes.

110 Fauci was back channeling money to the Wuhan lab to do research on viruses that is not funded (illegal?) in the US. It's likely he did this with funds provided by the NIH director to Fauci's area (Infectious Diseases) and our government being as lazy as it is didn't follow up on where the funds went.

So, we're illegally (sort of) paying Chinese scientists to do gain of function research on bat flu. Fauci thought this type of research was important, at least to him, and worth the risk. But he apparently never told anyone what he was doing, nor did anyone actually supervise the "program" Fauci was running that included GOF research in a Chinese lab.

So the feds will look the other way with all the societal bullshit he unleased and go after him for running a back channel research program. Sound proper. Not.

115 The scientific and constitutional catastrophe that was most of the response to C19 is far more important and interesting than Fauci, and of course goes way beyond him. Including up to where the buck stops.

Also more interesting and important than the entire Wuhan aspect. Because it revealed a hollowness not just in institutions, but in the populace (see OM's rant below), past a certain point.

And with Trump's removal, any chance of any kind of reckoning seems slim. Which is critical not just because of the outrageous scandal that is most the entire virus debacle, but because the end-game attack on prosperity and freedom that is "climate change" nonsense now has only inertia limiting it. Clearly we are in a post-scientific era, where data and logic and observed history don't matter. "Climate change" is the permanent, universal power grab and grift.

I'm working under the assumption that what the cucks see as the reason Trump beat them. And it would be that they were spread out too much. Infecting Walker's campaign. Stocking up on Jergens and Kleenex for Jeb. Hoping Rubio invites them to a bubble party. Trying to make Fiorina someone likable. They won't want that again. They'll want a return to 2012 where you have just the one establishment cuck acting like he's already won the whole time so he can lose with honor in November.

Jumping COVIDz do not get as much aerodynamic lift in the thinner atmosphere at 30,000 feet, so they cannot cover the lesser distance between travelers.

The macro facts and the anomalies, on top of the background picture (no Biden campaign, widespread spontaneous demos of support for Trump unlike anything seen in modern times), make it seem impossible that cheating was not the difference.

226 There is an increasingly large number of people that cannot, for their own live's sake, abide truth and its revealing.

So many things can't be said because the truth screams out for blood. This cannot end well. But I do believe it will end. I'm not an eeyore or any sort of optimist in regards to the secular world. But I do believe something will break and this and a whole lot more will end.

The left doesn't care, they don't do risk mitigation. Their plan is to do everything they want all the time, live or die. Don't think that while we're all racing towards the cliff that the left is going to hit the brakes, they will go right over the edge. I'm certain now we're on that path.

It's sort of symbiotic. They write truth about America and suppress it about the U.K., and our press writes truth about the U.K. and suppresses it about the U.S.

I followed the Hurricane Katrina bullshit with mostly U.K. and Australian news sources, because all of ours were in cover-up mode.

When Sammy Davis Jr was dating Kim Novak, some Mafia heavies (said to have been in the employ of Columbia head Harry Cohn) took him aside and said, "You've got one good eye right now. Care to try for none?"

Not dismissing your point, it is valid.

But there is something weird about Florida right now. On paper we are the most purple state in the country, D/R/I registration is very even, and we are a swing state in every election.

North Carolina and Georgia are provably redder states than Florida.

However, these massively important conservative bills are passing the legislature by big margins. 77-23 in one case.

For being a purple state, no one is acting like it or appears to be nervous about political blowback at all.

319 Well, it wouldn't surprise me if they were manipulating lumber prices. As I've said before, I drive by two small lumber mills every weekend. They never shut down completely and all have lumber stacked up and ready to ship. Now, it's possible that they cut back on shift work. But still. And why are we continuing to see key businesses getting hacked? How many wake up calls do they need?

No amount of quoting Breitbart, "F U War", or qouting heroic figures from the past is going to do shit. People whether they like to admit it or not have accepted their fate. There are not enough of us to actually fight and pushback. All there is left to do is adapt, make the most of life that you can to enjoy and keep your head down.

I was thinking it's an interesting coincidence that the key businesses hacked provide oil and meat. 2 things that are to be restricted in the "great reset". Spiking lumber prices also fits in this idea - you can't just have anybody build a house someplace after the reset.

339 Dasak is, to this day, a defender of digging up bat viruses running them through genetically engineered mice a couple hundred times to see if they will evolve into something more virulent (gain of function experiments) and then figuring out how to make vaccines and treatments for the disease just engineered. I think his theory is "It was going to happen anyways in nature, so why not get some grant money (and trips to China) for doing it." Probably we should make sure some NASA Fauci isn't presently figuring out ways to coax small-ish asteroids into colliding with Earth on a similar theory as NIH's bat virus research.
