Fauci: I Didn't Shut Down The Schools

Look at this demonic midget evade responsibility in the video below.

Technically, no, he didn't shut down the schools. But only because he didn't have the power to do that.

What he did is campaign for them to be closed, which governors, particularly in Fauci-worshipping, Trump-hating blue states, promptly did, to prove that They F***ing Love Science.

He also claimed that lockdowns didn't harm children. When Cavuto points out Science establishing that they did, he immediately Questions The Science, which he previously informed me was a grave moral sin.

What about The Fauci Effect, Fauci? It's why I'm going to medical school, you know.

Fauci's been denying any role in shutting down schools for a while now:

He didn't order the lockdowns -- but he's still a huge, huge supporter of them.

Not only is he a supporter of the last catastrophic lockdowns he engineered -- he vows that if he had the chance to do it all again, he'd impose even more draconian lockdowns.

Lockdowns and mask mandates were the most radical experiment in the history of public health, but Dr. Walensky isn't alone in thinking they failed because they didn't go far enough. Anthony Fauci, chief medical adviser to the president, recently said there should have been "much, much more stringent restrictions" early in the pandemic. The World Health Organization is revising its official guidance to call for stricter lockdown measures in the next pandemic, and it is even seeking a new treaty that would compel nations to adopt them. The World Economic Forum hails the Covid lockdowns as the model for a "Great Reset" empowering technocrats to dictate policies world-wide.

Yet these oppressive measures were taken against the longstanding advice of public-health experts, who warned that they would lead to catastrophe and were proved right. For all the talk from officials like Dr. Fauci about following "the science," these leaders ignored decades of research--as well as fresh data from the pandemic--when they set strict Covid regulations. The burden of proof was on them to justify their dangerous experiment, yet they failed to conduct rigorous analyses, preferring to tout badly flawed studies while refusing to confront obvious evidence of the policies' failure.

U.S. states with more-restrictive policies fared no better, on average, than states with less-restrictive policies. There's still no convincing evidence that masks provided any significant benefits. When case rates throughout the pandemic are plotted on a graph, the trajectory in states with mask mandates is virtually identical to the trajectory in states without mandates. (The states without mandates actually had slightly fewer Covid deaths per capita.) International comparisons yield similar results. A Johns Hopkins University meta-analysis of studies around the world concluded that lockdown and mask restrictions have had "little to no effect on COVID-19 mortality."

Meanwhile, you'll be paying this monster's $350,000 per year retirement salary.


Anthony Fauci is set to receive an annual retirement package exceeding $350,000 following his controversial tenure as the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.

The staggering, taxpayer-funded figure comes amidst Fauci -- who sent U.S. taxpayer dollars to fund risky bat coronavirus research at a Chinese Communist Party-controlled lab in Wuhan -- announcing he'd step down from his National Institutes of Health (NIH) position in addition to the role of Chief Medical Advisor to President Joe Biden in December.

Maddow seemed ready to convert to heterosexuality over this nasty pixie.


Maddow couldn't contain herself. Before Fauci was even brought on, she melted with praise for Fauci. "Dr. Anthony Fauci is a singular figure in American history and in American public service. There has never been anyone else like him, and there never will be again" Maddow proclaimed.

...

Maddow, addressing Fauci added, "I feel like you're an exception to my cynicism on that, in part just because it's rare for one person to head up an important part of the government's capabilities over such a long period of time, over so many different challenges, through so many different presidencies."

...

Perhaps attempting to preempt the charges that he spent the COVID pandemic contradicting himself on everything from mask-wearing to vaccines, Fauci cried "that was interpreted by many as flip-flopping or not really knowing what's going on when it really was the evolution of the science."

There have been a lot of theories and conspiracy theories and accusations and more or less wild claims about the origins of COVID in particular," Maddow wailed in her attempt at serving as Fauci's publicist. "It seems like that's when people on the political right really started getting their claws into you and targeting you personally during this pandemic," Maddow insisted.

"What we're dealing with now is just a distortion of reality," he said, lashing out. He then proceeded to whine about all the "conspiracy theories which don't make any sense."

Maddow followed up by asking if Fauci has "any insight into what we ought to do as a country to deal with" the threats Fauci has gotten. She then proceeded to slime conservatives by claiming they think "anybody citing science or facts or objective reality or nuance is, by definition, the enemy."

Fauci, the nonpartisan Man of Science, decided to bring January 6th into this to prove his "scientific" claims.

Fauci ended the segment by throwing a temper tantrum that people "could look at January 6 on TV, and you have some people who actually don't believe it happened. How could that possibly be?" Fauci kvetched, adding that "it's now spilling over in denial about public health principles."


Maddow ended the interview by thanking Fauci "for a lifetime, so far of service."


A couple of nights ago Tucker flamed Fauci and his Cult of Envenomed Wine Aunts, before then getting into more serious matters like Fauci funding the creation of the virus that shut down the world, and then using government resources and intimidation to cover that up, and lying to Congress about it.

Even if you don't want to watch that recap, maybe watch just the beginning for some quality sarcasm about St. Fauci and his most passionate devotees.

Related: archliberal-who-is-not-insane Eric Weinstein flamed NPR a couple of weeks ago for trying to pretend that the CDC's guidance -- which essentially cancelled all their previous Covid Safety LARPing demands -- was "no big deal" and just a minor tweak of past recommendations.


By the way, speaking of minor tweaks: YouTube will now allow you to say, accurately, that masks did not control the spread of covid.

YouTube, like the New York Times in May, has acknowledged the data shows that mask-wearing and mask mandates had no statistical impact on stopping the spread of COVID.

Similarly, a study found no substantial difference between COVID rates between schools with and without mask mandates.

All those months children had to wear dirty rags on their faces were a waste. Still, putting #MaskUp made you one of the cool ones online.

YouTube has yet to address the change or whether it would allow those banned for telling the truth about masks back on the platform.

I guess The Science (TM) evolved? Or was it just the government-coordinated censorship?

and the state of emergency Wolf enjoyed would not have been possible without the ... federal declaration.

Posted by: mallfly the Peach of Hoboken at August 24, 2022 02:57 PM (Ynyl9)

22 No, Fauci didn't shut down anything. He didn't sign a single lockdown order or school closure order. He and his crew just screamed from the rooftops about how if you don't do what they say - and this is what they said to do - then you'd kill grandma and little kids and cause the end of the world. Then they also advised the federal government to subsidize and pressure the states to do what they were told.

But yeah, he signed no order himself. He didn't do it. He's a man of science.

And it works just as well as the version we tried. Look at Red China. Xi's "Dynamic Zero" COVID policy involves brutally-enforced lockdowns that go on for weeks or months at a time (though they don't call them "lockdowns" anymore because it has bad connotations). The hardcore version doesn't work, either. It can't. The concept is fatally flawed.

But I'm not a scientist, so I must be wrong.

I have not forgotten and will never forget that. I will never forgot having to lobby to keep my job over this. I will never forget the coercion and threats. I will never forget who is responsible, from Anthony Fauci all the way down to my shitheel local HR apparatchik and everyone in between.

84 “Political correctness is communist propaganda writ small. In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, not to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is in some small way to become evil oneself. One's standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to.”

Well, obviously, Trump made the corporations be terrified of raising costs, which is why they only did it once Biden was in power. Corporations are terrified of Trump but not of Biden. Biden lets corporations do whatever they want.

For this reason, Biden is the only way to save us from corporate greed.

What a disingenuous little man. There probably are a handful of people who actually deny that anyone entered the Capitol, or that there was a riot, or that cops and rioters clashed. There always are. They babble on about crisis actors and lizard people and whatnot.

No, what people deny is that IT WAS AN ATTEMPT TO OVERTHROW THE GOVERNMENT. I have pointedly asked many leftists how they imagine the government could have been overthrown that day. If I get any answer at all, it's something like, "They were going to kill Mike Pence and then government overthrown." Or "They were going to ransom Mike Pence, and then government overthrown." Or "They were going to steal the electoral vote ballots and then government overthrown."

None of those scenarios actually leads to an overthrown government. I challenge the little Mussolini Fauci to clearly demonstrate otherwise.

225 I will say that a lot of the blame for the lockdowns lies with the general population. Had we not been so cowed once it became obvious Covid wasn't going to kill us all, we could've prevented a lot of the damage we incurred.

Instead, we went along.

It varied a lot depending on where you were. Some stuff like school closures apply if those rules are in place, but mask mandates and shit worked as well as people were willing to let them work. In some places, they did it and kept doing it. In other places, people ignored it.

229 Early on during the lockdown there was a video of a man in his 20s or so, taking a job on the beach in Santa Monica. The man was in shape, wearing just a swim suit. So, first they send a helicopter with a bullhorn and tell him to get inside. He flips them off. Then a Santa Monica cop in full battle rattle gets the unfortunate task of arresting this guy running in the sand.
The cop gets within 25 feet of the runner and the runner just puts it in gear and leaves the cop far behind. It was really characteristic of the whole stupid thing.

232 I believe that some people -- actually quite a few people -- actually like wearing masks, but not for any covid- or safety-related concerns. They found out that they like keeping their faces covered. They will never go back. Why? Who knows? It's probably the same motivation that keeps half of Muslim women in the world covering their faces. While I'm sure most Muslim women initially resent it, many if not most eventually come to like it.

241 117 Let's be clear: there were no true lock downs. A virus doesn't care if have to go to the grocery store to buy food. It's still going to spread there. A virus doesn't care that you have to remove your mask to eat in a restaurant. It's still going to exit your body as an aerosol spray. The lock downs were doomed to fail because it couldn't ever truly be implemented. This is why a shutdown was moronic. Whether COVID was a real threat is another discussion.

Posted by: DFCtomm at August 24, 2022 03:13 PM (OHy0b)


All of the Fauci, Birx, state and city health departments, and CDC guidance on preventive measures was for political reasons, not medical reasons. The local and state politicians believed they had to do something, anything, even if they were known to be useless and socially and economically damaging, to assure the Karens and other Left-leaning voters that Big Government was doing everything it could to save their lives. So vote for me in the next election - I saved your life and the lives of your children!

This is why Greg Abbott and many other Republican office holders caved and went with masks and lockdowns of various types and duration.

It has been known for 100 years that masks don't work, they don't even work in a surgical setting, and some study in the 80's demonstrated. Masks do not protect against respiratory viruses. They are worthless.

Previous to this madness, it was considered "settled science" that lockdowns and mass quarantines were counterproductive. That is, would do more harm than good.

When you have a disease raging, you need the economy and supply and logistics to be functioning well.

296 282 There was one restaurant in my area that didn't shut down. No "curb-side serving only", no "distancing" between tables, no plexiglass partitions, no masks for the customers. So we went there, for every birthday to be celebrated, that's where we went. I don't know how they escaped scrutiny but they did. They have a special place in my heart.

When I moved to South Carolina, I needed to pick up something from the hardware store. Home Depot required a mask, Lowe's merely suggested it. I still drive past the Home Depot to get to the Lowe's when I need something.

298 I will say that a lot of the blame for the lockdowns lies with the general population. Had we not been so cowed once it became obvious Covid wasn't going to kill us all, we could've prevented a lot of the damage we incurred.
Instead, we went along.

Got a mouse in your pocket?

People fought like hell against it, and fought like hell to get their kids out from under it in the schools. And it worked. Here we are today, and only the batsh*t crazy people are driving around alone with masks on.

Here's the key. It was a psychological attack. It was done to us on purpose. Think about how hard it is to fight back against that. It's amazing that we succeeded in the short amount of time that we did.

Thank you to everyone here that fought beside me, btw. Thank you to everyone who laughed, pointed fingers, wrote letters, and went to school board meetings.

We won that battle. Now we've got to move to the next hill.

All bad weather and occurrences are good news, they are never ever your fault, and they are always a new excuse for more rules and restrictions. And the next bad thing that happens is more of the same. There is no time where someone can ask them why they haven't managed to stop any hurricanes. It's always just an excuse to "do more".

Rather ingenious actually, in a satanic sort of way.

308 What about The Fauci Effect, Fauci?

I do think the Fauci Effect is real. I don't think its properly defined, but its absolutely real.

There's no doubt about it, today's Ruling Class is run by Silents and Boomers. They're not monolithic generations, no generation is, but at this point I don't think there's much debate on which generations are in charge.

Fauci is typical of a subset of those generations. Damn it, the man expects to be obeyed. He's in charge, and he didn't eat all those shit sandwiches to get in charge just to be ignored. That's one side of the Fauci Effect.

The other side of the Fauci Effect is all those folks, and this spans ALL generations, that absolutely love to send that virtue signal of "Yes, Mommy and Daddy, we did as we were told". And that virtue signal really does cross all ethnic, social, political, and financial lines.

You could make a solid case that the last forty years or so of political strife has come down to a simple question. That being who, in the socio-political sense, are Mommy and Daddy ? Who is to be obeyed ?

That's pretty much all it is, and if that is really all that effective, I don't know. Karl Denninger has written several rants about this with links to some of those studies and papers. It's basically "sterile theater". Make it look sterile for psychological effect.

There are all sorts of things that are far more effective in reducing post-operative infections.

When I had my last knee surgery, they had adopted many new things since the last time I went under the knife. UV sterilizing robots that irradiate everything. They had me use some body wash gel every shower for a couple days before. Then, for a couple days before, apply some anti-bacterial gel stuff up my nose.

If we had allowed people to do this from the get-go, far fewer people would have died of covid. Think of the mandates to force infected elderly into nursing homes. Without those, probably at least 100,000 fewer elderly would have died. The false assurances given to people that mask wearing was protecting them. And so on.

And that's ignoring the horrendous impact on school children and small business from the equally useless lockdowns.

330 YouTube, like the New York Times in May, has acknowledged the data shows that mask-wearing and mask mandates had no statistical impact on stopping the spread of COVID.

Similarly, a study found no substantial difference between COVID rates between schools with and without mask mandates.


The Overton SCIENCE window has moved. Pray they don't alter the deal further.

As an aside, I've watched quite a few streaming Tubi TV movies in recent months; the downside is ads.

Lots of ads. I just mute them. One in particular, however, gets repeated ad nauseum. It's by Disneyland.

The ad insists that "wear a mask, dahling" and "maintain a 6 foot distance from others" by cartoon characters is still best practice. This week, still running it. I figured Disney must own Tubi, but no, it's owned by

If there were no severe hurricanes in a year, or none that made landfall, the Eco-Terrorists would scream that that's BAD! They'll instantly claim that some hurricanes are needed every year, to create currents that bring nutrients up from the lower depths, to do natural pruning of dead and weak tree branches, helping new growth get established, and Gaia knows what else. All to be able make the claim that increasing CO2 has caused yet another existential threat to every living thing.

366 By the way, you really can't say the laugh out lies that Fauci makes without knowing that the media will cover for you. This is what makes all evil possible. They are your cover, your alibi, your accomplices, in all that you do. If you know that, you can exhibit the brazen hutzpah that Fauci does in front of Senators. You'd never say "you don't know what you're even talking about, Senator!" to a Senator that actually does unless you knew all along that you have "protection" from that media. The Dems and the left would be weaker than the weakest kitten without it...the slightest challenge to that lefty ownership of it gets the biggest shrieks. Its everything to the left - get rid of that - and the whole house of cards comes down.

Worst part is that Mom could not attend Mass for at least a year. But her church did live-feeds, which is better than nothing. Plus the Pastor would visit a couple times a month to deliver communion to Dad.

How does the human body fight a virus ? A few ways that I know of. We run fevers, to raise body temp to kill foreign organisms. We crank up white blood counts to kill those same organisms. And our GI system cranks up to expel those viruses in one of two manners.

I absolutely believe that a failure to wash hands can lead to re-introduction of any virus. And a whole lot of other nasty stuff.

There is all one simple common denominator -- they don't want us talking to each other person to person. Masks inhibit that, going to dinner with friends or to church is out, gyms are out. Riots, anonymous sex, all 100 percent ok because nobody is comparing notes about how stupid this all is.

399 By the way, I'd go further. The fact that the left has lost some minor control of the media message by way of these very few conservative influencers - ie that there is a right leaning online group that counters the lefts overwhelming rule of the media - has been all that has really stood in the way of any idea of the pretend reality that the left provides. Trump can rightfully fume all he wants, but without the few brave souls that have shouted it out and given context to stories the media is selling on behalf of the left - we'd be alone, in the dark, and thinking "am I really the only one in the world that thinks this is nuts?"

406 Dr. Fauci is a monster who gave "scientific" cover to all the blue state governors around the country so they could shut down their states which they did with an iron fist. He owns this 100%. If he had given actual scientific advice instead of masturbating to the fawning press coverage of him, not one of those governors would have shut down their states like they did. And the consequences of this lying megalomaniac's baloney are/were cratered economies, children that lost nearly 2 years of education, increased domestic violence, supply chain collapse, exacerbating the existing social and political divisions, disserved the President, and because he funded the gain of function research for Covid 19, he owns every death that occurred. His penalty for all this social chaos? A $350,000 per year pension.

The fact that Tribe, even from "Haaavaad" has to use the baseless, old "appeal to authority" to get what he wants is just distasteful and hardly worthy of someone who ought to pride themselves on any debate stage.

I hate the idea that only "Cornell" or "Harvard" or any 'lawyer' has to be the only one that is allowed to win a debate over what is the right interpretation of the law, much less suggest we are all the beneficiary of any largess thrown their way. No law, no legal profession should be so purposedly indecipherable as to suggest that only "Priests of Oracle of Delphi" my interpret its meaning to the masses - this is what is buried in Tribe's suggestion that we be happy that our Priests are free from their financial bonds.
