Why did this take so long? That's one question I'm sure some people asked when the thousands of pages of electronic communications from Dr. Anthony Fauci, Biden's COVID Czar, were exposed last week. It's not a pretty picture. If Fauci weren't such a senior bureaucrat, he would have been reassigned or forced to resign. The thousands of pages show a long terrible road of lies, deceit, and political bias that we all knew was true but lacked solid evidence. Okay, we had some evidence, but this is smoking gun stuff.
Freedom of Information Act requests can be exhausting. The not-so-motivated crew (and I'm being nice here) are usually designated to this department. There's fact-finding and much dragging of one's feet in this endeavor. It can take years. Professor William Jacobson's blog, Legal Insurrection, made a FOIA request on "Meet the Press," David Gregory, and anything related to the investigation stemming from the former Sunday Morning talk show host who famously whipped out an AR-15 magazine in the wake of the Sandy Hook shooting. High-capacity magazines are banned in Washington, DC. It took two years to reveal that DC police wanted to charge Gregory, but the DC's attorney general decided to nix it because…David is a nice guy. So, emails from Fauci—you can see how this could take a while.
Spencer noted some of the worst parts of this document dump, like Fauci knowing store-bought masks were trash against curbing the spread. He went along with it anyway. Other scientists told him COVID might have been man-made but ignored them. And he decided to target Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, but not Andrew Cuomo. Cuomo killed thousands of the elderly in nursing homes with his executive order for these facilities and then tried to cover it up. New York was credited for handling COVID right by Fauci. Wrong. Florida protected its most vulnerable much better, and there's a ton of folks in the liberal press who are eating crow because of it. Florida and Texas, ignoring the press and their hysterics, exposed that much of the COVID protocols were a ruse.
So, after years of going insane over the lies Donald Trump supposedly said, we have an actual liar who the Left has made into a cult-idol. For all the allegations of idolatry the Left hurls at us regarding Trump, they have a closet full of them. Fauci is the latest edition. It gets back to our favorite game. They can lie because it's noble, but we can't.
Fauci admitted his mask-wearing post-vaccination was political theater. He warned against reopening too soon. He's been wrong on almost every protocol when it comes to COVID. And he thought this would go away on its own. We didn't need a vaccine.
Trump's supposed lies that exist only in the minds of liberal America were virtually all exposed as media myths. And even if there was a little fib every now and then, did it cause the economy to crash? No.
Fauci and his ilk set about a lockdown regime that did everything ass-backward. This isn't Monday morning quarterbacking; they knew most of the protocols were garbage. They mocked the Trump goal of having a vaccine done by the end of 2020. The media laughed when Trump said that by April 2021, everyone would be eligible. They were wrong about everything.
They lied to us about masks post-vaccination. They're still not being straight with us now on the origins of COVID, despite an email chain about gain-of-function research concerning the coronavirus. Fauci also said experimenting with bats was worth the risk of a potential pandemic.
Fauci and his lies caused the economy to crash, made a joke of the medical profession, and did lasting damage to the health care industry. The institutions, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) are going to be ignored by millions. They deserve to be after this fiasco. The NIH has ties to EcoHealth Alliance, which gave grants to the very lab that might be responsible for this pandemic, the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Fauci even admitted that he could not be sure that the Chinese were totally honest about how this money was allocated. And the science looks like this was a lab experiment gone awry. Fauci was thanked by Eco's president for dispelling the lab leak theory to his allies in the media.
It's a perverted world we live in. Folks who once took an apolitical approach to policy decided to become no better than the communications operatives the Democratic National Committee hires by the fist-full during election years because they didn't like a particular president. They wanted Trump gone. They wanted a lockdown regime. When things were going well, and they have since the arrival of the vaccines, they still peddled "impending doom," and nothing happened.
Fauci's lies left a trail of economic destruction and erosion in the public trust of the medical experts. Of all people, a comedian, Bill Maher, dissected this mess concisely on his show "Real Time," where he noted the "scared straight" approach Fauci took didn't work and that mixing politics and medical advice is a toxic cocktail. Right now, a whopping 71 percent of Democrats are still clinging to the lockdown ethos, thanks to Fauci's lies. Millions have lost their livelihoods. Lives were lost due to mounting depression, anxiety, and other mental issues that arise when you face the stress of not being able to support your family. A whole generation of kids did not learn a thing last year—and teachers' unions have decided to use the lies Fauci peddled to prop up the lockdown era to prevent their people from going back to work.
Never forget these two were propped up by most of the media and are making millions in book deals profiting off the pandemic. https://t.co/doJm2d3Uz4

Because of Fauci, medical experts cannot be trusted. These people should be publicly humiliated for the mayhem they inflicted onto the country over a virus with a 90+ percent survivability rate. All of these lies did their job because Trump is gone. Now, they're left without credibility, with millions who refuse to listen to what they have to say, which is warranted, and mounting suspicions that medical professionals are no better than the clowns MSNBC hires daily. I hope it was worth it. You folks will be speaking to empty venues for years to come—and that's your fault. If we had to make comparisons, Fauci's lies were akin to a carpet bombing with nuclear weapons. What the liberal media called Trump lies were really things they just disagreed with and nothing more than bottle rockets in terms of fallout.
Mute Fauci. Mute the CDC. Mute Biden. Mute all the experts for now. They all need a timeout. Frankly, they need to be yelled at like Jon Taffer in "Bar Rescue."
SHUT IT DOWN!
