That Trump hasn’t stuffed these clowns by now is on him.

“The dyed in the wool FReeper dogma and lore is that Fauci is a damn fool and hypocritical enemy of the Republic. His education is a damning credential used to fool the poorly educated masses.”

You can mock liberty loving FReepers all you want - and paint us as anti-science conspiracy theorists - but we are right and you are wrong.

The point is that our freedoms are not conditional upon whether government bureaucrats deem it safe for us to exercise them. Liberty is Liberty.

The First Amendment doesn’t guarantee freedom of speech depending on whether the government approves of what we are saying. It guarantees freedom of speech. Period.

Likewise with freedom of assembly.

Would-be tyrants and overreaching bureaucrats ALWAYS use fear to try and justify restrictions to our liberties. They ALWAYS attempt to shame us into giving them up, saying we are selfish and reckless if we don’t.

Like clockwork, there are always Leftists waiting for opportunities (or engineering them) to restrict our speech and our movements and activities.

They start with spurious arguments like “freedom of speech doesn’t mean you can say anything you want - you can’t yell “bomb!” in a crowded terminal, or use “hate” speech, or threaten someone”.

To listen to these arguments, one would think the First Amendment is full of exceptions - but it is NOT. Quite the contrary, it explicitly prohibits all such exceptions:

“Congress SHALL MAKE NO LAW respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.”

I don’t see anything in there about there being an exception if a know-it-all bureaucrat such as Dr Fauci feels that freedom of assembly would not be in our best interest.

The Founders are rolling in their graves.

Warren and the dems are using their time for politics and Trump trashing, too bad they only care about politics, not saving lives.

Senator Pat Roberts is talking about "The Fab Five".......

I guess he's counting good old Pete Best.

Sen. Roberts - calls the witnesses the fab four/five. Kansas meat packing plants closings. Adm. says the rapid testing machines can’t produce the results rapidly. “Rapid slow test.”

Of course not. How can you test for something that previously didn’t exist. Do they think you just pull fully-verified test kits out your a@@ and put them into mass production?

Ok. Thanks for revealing that “5.6 is a mail in” was a reference to Schumer.

Fauxi had a pandemic vaccine, mRNA-1273, in Oct. for Bill Gates’ Event 201. Surprised he hasn’t renamed it and already pocketing the proceeds.

Seems the only Repubs in this hearing are RINOs so far except for Rand. Coollins, Murkowski, the old guy from Kansas just babbled.

Fauci always has to put in his two cents. He brings up the relatively rare cases of children who have a Kawasaki type illness triggered by the virus. The data clearly indicate that those under 20 are virtually bulletproof.

Hell, some people die from a reaction to vaccines. Nothing is risk free. Schools must open.

What a waste of time. The only excitement was Sen. Rand Paul letting one rip.

Tests take forever. Ford tried to cut corners with testing for Swine Flu vaccine, and administer it to troops. Some of them died as a result. You have to test for efficacy and safety.

Senator Cassidy from Louisiana is a doctor. He’s a gastroenterologist.

Why are you trying to make this a global competition? /sarcasm

I was responding to a post on Schumer’s quote, simply saying the national lockdown economy crash is #5 and the vote-by-mail November election will be #6 of the ways Schumer threatened that the Deep State could get back at and stop Trump.
