The good news for white guys is that it is still conceivable for them to be honored by the federal government via the Smithsonian Institution on behalf of the liberal establishment as Portrait of a Nation honorees. It helps to be an arrogant, grotesquely overpaid technocrat and admitted liar who may be complicit in 5.6+ million deaths and counting, who has covered up the origins of Covid, and who belongs in prison for lying to Congress.

Try not to gag:

On YouTube, viewers can see the 3 likes on the video above, but no count is shown for the dislikes. One reason for this could be that actual Americans do not worship Fauci the way our rulers do. A majority of independents want him to resign, despite this sort of spin from the media:

Despite being regarded as the infallible voice of the technocracy by the liberal media, Anthony Fauci’s handling of the ChiCom virus has been characterized by dramatic reversals and even admitted lies. Now it emerges that he may share responsibility for the creation of the virus.

The new boss is the same as the old boss regarding Fauci, who stays on as chief medical advisor to the White House. With characteristic arrogance, Fauci recently averred that a lack of candor by the former administration cost American lives. This from the guy who admits that he deliberately lied regarding herd immunity.

Miranda Devine notes that among his other notable missteps (such as backflipping on masks), Fauci shared Biden’s view, as the virus began to spread from its birthplace in Wuhan, that travel from China should not be restricted:

It was Jan. 28, and Trump had asked his trade adviser, Peter Navarro, into the Situation Room to convince Fauci and other officials that the China travel ban would save lives.

“The guy I fought the most that day was Fauci,” Navarro told me Sunday. “He was adamantly opposed to the travel ban. All he kept saying was travel restrictions don’t work.” …

Trump imposed the travel ban on Jan. 31 and Fauci later credited the action with saving lives.

But, says Navarro, “If Biden had been president and Fauci had been the top adviser, we would probably have a million more Americans dead.”

Even this would pale in comparison to helping to create the virus in first place, as suggested by Steve Hilton.

COVID-19 could be the result of gain of function research, whereby viruses with dangerous capabilities are created deliberately for research or bioweapon purposes.

Via BizPac Review:

This research was carried out around the world, with Wuhan, China being home to a leading laboratory, funded in part by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, headed up by Dr. Anthony Fauci.

The Obama Administration was responsible enough to put the kibosh on this, likely because of the devastating consequences should a Frankenstein virus escape the lab.

“Despite the controversy surrounding this type of research,” [Hilton] said, “it always had one steadfast champion, a leading figure in the world of infectious diseases, Anthony Fauci.” …

Fauci “continued on by subcontracting it” to the NY based EcoHealth Alliance. …

Hilton noted that EcoHealth Alliance then subcontracted the gain of function piece to the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

Hilton traced a money trail from Fauci to Wuhan, where novel coronaviruses were discovered in bat feces from rural China, and new viruses were created in the lab. These activities may have resulted in a reengineered bat virus that can infect humans through the air.

Too bad we don’t have much in the way of an independent media to follow up on leads like this.

“The response from the medical establishment has been shocking,” [Hilton] added. “Instead of trying to figure out what happened, they have been pushing a cover-up.”

With Beijing Biden in the White House, where Fauci now enjoys an enhanced role, the liberal establishment will bury this story all the deeper.

It’s the weekend; let’s lighten the mood with a hearty laugh:

The Inamori International Center for Ethics and Excellence at Case Western Reserve University will award Dr. Anthony Fauci, a physician, immunologist, and infectious disease expert, with the 2024 Inamori Ethics Prize.

Fauci made a name for himself as not only the most grotesquely overpaid but also one of the most arrogantly dishonest bureaurats ever to infest the DC swamp.

That he is a liar, not even Fauci himself is dishonest enough to dispute. He admitted that he lied to the public about herd immunity, moving the goal posts based on what figures he thought the public would believe.

Fauci misused his power to impose the “natural occurrence” Covid narrative long after we knew it was a joke. He did this to hide his own culpability for Covid’s existence. It appears highly likely that it was engineered in a probable bioweapons lab with funding he helped provide and that he knew this from the beginning.

Fauci is a felon for lying to Congress. Demands from prominent senators that he be criminally prosecuted are ignored because Fauci benefits from our two-tiered justice system, under which no one so beloved by leftists that they burn votive candles to him will ever face justice.

Instead, the establishment gives him an ethics prize. Maybe our moonbat overlords have a sense of humor after all.

The announcement itself is jarringly dishonest. Fauci is praised for helping to “combat rampant and dangerous misinformation.” In reality, he aggressively suppressed dissent to protect himself and his ChiCom compadres and to facilitate Covid tyranny.

The unrepentant Fauci’s only regret after the pointless misery, repression, and economic devastation that he helped inflict is that the Big Government he personifies was not repressive enough:

“If I knew in 2020 what I know now, we would do a lot differently,” said Fauci in an interview [last year]. “The insidious nature of spread in the community would have been much more of an alarm, and there would have been much, much more stringent restrictions in the sense of very, very heavy encouragement of people to wear masks, physical distancing, what have you.”

The previous Inamori Ethics Prize winner was from Ukraine, arguably the most corrupt nation on the planet. Follow the trajectory and you have to ask, can an ethics prize for Joe Biden be far away?

On a tip from ABC of the ANC.

Anthony Fauci used his power to prop up the story that Covid occurred naturally, rather than being designed in a ChiCom lab with funding that he helped provide. That narrative is crumbling, with even the Deep State admitting that Covid probably came from the Wuhan Institute of Virology, as we have known for years. Even as the walls close in, Science Personified still tries to spin his way out:

“A lab leak could be that someone was out in the wild, maybe looking for different types of viruses in bats, got infected, went into a lab and was being studied in the lab and then came out of the lab,” Fauci told anchor Jim Acosta.

Cue the laugh track:

“But if that’s the definition of a lab leak Jim, then that’s still a natural occurrence.”

The comparably slippery Bill Clinton told us that it all depends on what the definition of “is” is. Fauci tinkers with the definitions of “gain of function” and “lab leak.”

He also made a point of noting that no investigative agency tasked with investigating the origins of the virus by President Biden in 2021 found evidence of nefarious activity at the lab.

An incompetent, senile president who has been bought off by our Chinese communist adversaries found no nefarious activity in their bioweapons program. What a relief.

As for being held accountable for committing a federal crime by lying to Congress about his role in creating Covid, Fauci is indignant:

“I mean, prosecute me for what? What are, what are they talking about? I mean I wish I could figure out what the heck they were talking about. I think they’re just going off the deep end,” he told Acosta.

Someone as conspicuously in love with his own public image as Anthony Fauci must study every word of his own press coverage. He knows very well what he will be prosecuted for if integrity is returned to DC. But let’s have Ted Cruz explain it anyway:

By this point in 15 Days to Slow the Spread, most of us have figured out that Big Government can crush small businesses and impose degrading mandates, but it cannot contain a virus. Despite all the liberty sacrificed, the very personification of Covid tyranny, quadruple-vaxxed Tony Fauci himself, has come down with the ChiCom virus twice.

His hysterical overreaction to Covid — which caused more damage than the virus itself — has made Fauci a demigod among left-wing authoritarians. Maybe that’s why, after 2+ years of ruining little people’s lives with his ham-fisted tragicomic ineptitude, Fauci’s main regret is that there was not enough senseless tyranny:

“If I knew in 2020 what I know now, we would do a lot differently,” said Fauci in an interview on Monday. “The insidious nature of spread in the community would have been much more of an alarm, and there would have been much, much more stringent restrictions in the sense of very, very heavy encouragement of people to wear masks, physical distancing, what have you.”

What he knows now that he did not know before is how much people will put up with before coming with torches and pitchforks.

We may be close to confirming that Covid was engineered at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, that Tony Fauci helped finance its development, and that Fauci lied to Congress regarding the funding of gain of function research.

Via Project Veritas:

Military documents state that EcoHealth Alliance approached DARPA in March 2018 seeking funding to conduct gain of function research of bat borne coronaviruses. The proposal, named Project Defuse, was rejected by DARPA over safety concerns and the notion that it violates the gain of function research moratorium.

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) develops technologies such as nuclear missiles for military purposes. It regarded the research that apparently created Covid as too dangerous to pursue. But the NIAID and NIH under Tony Fauci and his fellow dissent-suppressing technocrat Francis Collins apparently felt otherwise and provided funding.

Fauci has repeatedly maintained, under oath, that the NIH and [NIAID] have not been involved in gain of function research with the EcoHealth Alliance program. But according to the documents obtained by Project Veritas which outline why EcoHealth Alliance’s proposal was rejected, DARPA certainly classified the research as gain of function.

Further revelations relate to the concealment of documents and the suppression of curatives like ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine.

If the veracity of this DARPA memo can be confirmed, the implications are astounding:

SARS-CoV-2 is an American-created recombinant bat vaccine, or its precursor virus. It was created by an EcoHealth Alliance program at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV), as suggested by the reporting surrounding the lab leak hypothesis. The details of this program have been concealed since the pandemic began. …

SARS-CoV-2’s form as it emerged is likely as a precursor, deliberately virulent, humanized recombinant SARSr-CoV that was to be reverse engineered into a live attenuated SARSr-CoV bat vaccine.

But then Frankenstein’s monster slipped out of the laboratory. The rest is history.

Clueless yet arrogant Anthony Fauci is the face of the tyrannical and incompetent technocracy that has exploited Covid to increase its power at the country’s expense. At age 81, he is overdue to step down, like crooning fellow technotyrant Francis Collins. If he retires, the highest paid federal employee will cost taxpayers over $350,000 per year in retirement benefits.

Via Open the Books:

Fauci would reap the largest federal retirement package in U.S. history.

Our auditors at OpenTheBooks.com estimate Dr. Fauci’s annual retirement would exceed $350,000. Thereafter, his pension and benefits would continue to increase through annual cost-of-living adjustments.

Given the skyrocketing cost of living under Democrat rule, his pension is likely to become as colossal as his ego.

Sadly, Fauci has no plans to retire. His work is too crucial to the nation.

“I’m the head of an institute that actually played the major role in the development of the vaccines that have saved now millions of lives from COVID-19,” he told CBS’ “Face the Nation” in an interview. “I’m the director of the institute that has now been very important in the basic research in leading to the drugs that will now have an important impact in the treatment of COVID-19. That’s what I do.”

He doesn’t mention his possible role in funding ChiCom gain-of-function research that created the virus.

“So, I’m going to keep doing that until this COVID-19 outbreak is in the rearview mirror, regardless of what anybody says about me, or wants to lie and create crazy fabrications because of political motivations[.]”

Earlier, we were led to believe that people lie and create crazy fabrications about him because they hate Science.

If it is up to Fauci et al., Covid is never going anywhere, so retirement is out of the question. Maybe he can pay the ChiComs with our money to work on re-animator fluid, so that he can stay on the job even after he has passed away.

In other Fauci news, Senator Rand Paul makes the case that Fauci has been killing thousands of Americans per month with his irrational emphasis on vaccines rather than therapeutics:

“I would venture to say that thousands of people die in our country every month now from COVID because [Fauci’s] deemphasized the idea that there are therapeutics,” Paul, who is also a physician, said in an interview on the Ron Paul Liberty Report published Monday.

Among the most promising therapeutics are monoclonal antibodies, which work so well that in Minnesota, hated Caucasians are put last in line for them.

“Recent data showed that monoclonal antibody treatment cuts the risk of death and hospitalization by 70% in high-risk patients and reduces the chance of infection among a household by 80%,” Paul wrote in a September op-ed. “Monoclonal antibodies have only just begun to be mentioned by the mainstream media, and misinformation still plagues government bureaucrats when discussing this scientifically-backed treatment.”

Fauci does not personify Science as he imagines, but he does personify government bureaucrats.

Some think it should be a federal hate crime to question or criticize the nation’s highest paid bureaucrat, so let’s get in a word while we still can. Helping our ChiCom adversaries engineer a new virus is not the only dubious funding evidently overseen by Dr Fauci.

Fox News reports:

The [White Coat Waste] Project reported that Dr. Anthony Fauci’s bureaucracy’s budget in 2021 is an estimated $6 billion, and that documents obtained through FOIA show evidence of a study in which otherwise healthy beagles were treated with an experimental medication before being introduced to biting flies that were carrying a parasite known to be contagious to humans.

As Ben Domenech reported on Fox News Primetime, under Fauci’s direction, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases “funded painful and deadly experiments on dogs” that “endured months of pain, and once researchers were done with them, they were killed.”

Unpleasant as it is to think about, there has to be animal testing for medical science to advance. However, to those who love them, dogs and cats are more persons than they are animals. They are certainly closer to persons than they are to lab rats. Experimentation on man’s best friends has to be necessary to be morally justified.

Was this necessary?

Justin Goodman, a WCW Project vice president, told Domenech that the testing was likely a case of “not following the science”, adding that the FDA reportedly has said testing on canines isn’t always compatible to human-drug interactions.

“The EPA and the VA have ended dog testing,” he added.

Maybe Rand Paul can get Fauci to explain these experiments before Congress. After all, it is the public’s money he has been spending.

More than 16 months into “15 days to slow the spread,” the feds are escalating mask mandates, with CDC ditz Rochelle Walensky calling for even the vaccinated to suffocate themselves with these degrading symbols of submission. This is causing some confusion, because not long ago the CDC said the vaccinated didn’t have to wear masks. To clear this up, let us refer to the ultimate authority on all things Covid, the country’s highest paid bureaucrat — who you might say had a hand in Covid from even before the ChiComs created it — Dr Anthony Fauci:

Even now, this guy is regarded as a credible authority.

Hat tip: Not the Bee.

Highest paid bureaucrat Tony Fauci has lamely denied that he funneled US taxpayer money to our Chinese communist enemies to fund the gain of function research that apparently resulted in the Wuhan coronavirus. But even if he did fund the GoF research, it was worth the risk. Fauci has said so himself:

The Weekend Australian unearthed a paper Fauci wrote for the American Society for Microbiology in October 2012 in which he argued in support of gain-of-function research. Such research involves making viruses more infectious and/or deadly. …

The Weekend Australian report adds that Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, did not alert senior White House officials before lifting a ban on gain-of-function research in 2017.

Fauci acknowledged that scientists could become infected with an experimental virus, and that this could lead to a pandemic. Then he declared,

Scientists working in this field might say – as indeed I have said – that the benefits of such experiments and the resulting knowledge outweigh the risks. …

Within the research community, many have expressed concern that important research progress could come to a halt just because of the fear that someone, somewhere, might attempt to replicate these experiments sloppily.

As we learned from Chernobyl, the place to have science done sloppily is in a communist country. Communists ascribe little value to human life, so safety is not a priority.

Evidence accrues that Covid leaked from the Wuhan Institute of Virology, as conservatives have been suggesting for over a year now, in the face of social media censorship and MSM ridicule. Despite the loyal support of the liberal establishment, not even the mighty Chinese Communist Party can keep the truth suppressed indefinitely. The USA’s highest paid bureaucrat has flip-flopped before (e.g., on masks, on herd immunity), but admitting that the virus may be manmade is colossal — considering that Fauci stands accused of irresponsibly funding the research that created it.

More from Mark Dice:

Even leftist “fact-checkers” are effectively admitting that they expect it soon to be proven that the virus is manmade. Now that their credibility is nil, Fakebook may have to come up with a new excuse to censor information Democrats want suppressed.

Simon & Schuster recently canceled a book by Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) for political reasons. For similar reasons, it is happy to publish a book promoting the erring and dishonest technocrat Anthony Fauci to kids.

The Daily Wire reports:

The book, titled “Dr. Fauci: How A Boy From Brooklyn Became America’s Doctor,” is written by Kate Messner and illustrated by Alexandra Bye.

Simon & Schuster describes the book as the “definitive picture book biography of Dr. Anthony Fauci.”

Preorder a copy and learn whether America’s Doctor reveals why 6 feet may become 3 feet, after many schools have been closed for a year and countless businesses have been driven into bankruptcy by the previous arbitrary dictate. The book may even illuminate Fauci’s possible role in helping to create COVID-19 — though probably not.

This book is guaranteed to last longer than anything by Dr Seuss before liberals find a reason to demand that it be banned.

No one can say that Barack Obama didn’t leave a legacy. His community organizer tactics produced the racial strife that led to hundreds of Black Lives Matter riots and continue to have us at each other’s throats. Still more destructively, he weaponized the federal government on behalf of Democratic Party, most famously by siccing the IRS on the Tea Party. Under his idiot sidekick Biden, institutions that now serve party rather than national interests include the FBI and CDC:

The Biden administration likely infringed upon the First Amendment when it leaned on social media companies to remove false or misleading COVID-19 content, a federal court of appeals ruled Friday — narrowing a bombshell district court order that barred several officials and agencies from communicating with the platforms.

Which Covid content was false or misleading is still a matter of dispute — except for the admitted lies told by Tony Fauci. However, the Deep State wouldn’t censor Fauci, because even if he presents himself as Science Incarnate, he is actually Big Government Incarnate. That’s why liberals burn votive candles in devotion to him.

The White House, surgeon general, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the FBI “likely coerced or significantly encouraged social-media platforms to moderate content” and in doing so, “likely violated the First Amendment,” the New Orleans-based Fifth US Circuit Court of Appeals determined.

J. Edgar Hoover could never have imagined his agency would one day be used to censor medical information so that a virus could be exploited to inflict tyranny.
