Americans are being denied access to key information about COVID-19 by unelected bureaucrats who seek to expand government power and control, warned talk show host and author Steve Deace, whose new book “Faucian Bargain” recently topped Amazon’s bestsellers list.
“The two main objectives of our health care system—informed consent and second opinions—were denied to us at COVID,” Deace said in an interview with The Epoch Times’ “American Thought Leaders,” adding that much of the data presented in his book has not been communicated to the American public by Dr. Anthony Fauci, who leads the nation’s pandemic response.
“For example, if the average American knew that almost half of the deaths in America with COVID occurred in nursing homes where less than one percent of Americans live, we would have never ever gone along with this level of subjugation,” Deace told host Jan Jekielek. “These are the sorts of data points that have been kept from the American people, so they have not been given the right to informed consent.”
Deace moved on to cite a variety of “counter experts” from prestigious institutions such as Stanford and Oxford Universities, who “got kicked to the curb” because of their skepticism of one particular COVID-19 model used to justify lockdowns that severely affected people’s lives.
“We were told to trust the experts,” he said. “Why weren’t we permitted to get second opinions from counter experts, before we decided to risk a huge drop in cancer screenings, 40 million unemployed, 20 percent of American small businesses that are never going to return, on average, across the country?”
Deace then highlighted an apparent lack of controlled scientific studies proving the effectiveness of masks. He noted that while no domestic studies used a random controlled sample of unmasked people, a Danish study did and found that wearing a mask doesn’t significantly reduce one’s chances of contracting the virus.
Deace also pointed to an April 2020 study published by the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota. Following angry outcries calling for the paper’s retraction, the authors were forced to add a lengthy statement explaining how they came to the conclusion that masks are not effective in helping to lower the spread of the virus.
“Then there’s now a disclaimer, where they basically apologize to the mob for the fact that they ever tried to do actual science,” he said. “So that’s what the mask has really become. It’s gone beyond virtue signaling. It is idolatry. It’s ‘I’m better than you, I’m smarter than you, I care about other people more than you.’ When really it’s a tool of ignorance.”
When asked whether he thinks the pandemic was used by bureaucrats like Fauci to increase power, Deace said he believed there have been “forces waiting for the right moment” and saw the COVID-19 pandemic as an opportunity to advance their agenda.
“Just look how quickly people like Bill Gates had their messaging already in order,” he said, “look how instantaneously the messaging was assembled.” Deace said, “I absolutely believe there were forces at work, waiting for some kind of moment to institute, what they even use in their own language, a ‘Great Reset.'”
“They didn’t know what it was going to be, and then they saw this come along and figured that this was the moment for them to act,” he continued. “I don’t think that is tied into the origin of the virus whatsoever, and if it wasn’t coronavirus, it just would have been something else.”
Probably should keep in mind that people in hospitals with covid are getting lawyers and suing them for withholding Ivermectin as treatment the patients request. In many many cases the judges are ordering the hospital to administer it. Many happy stories of quick recoveries come about this way.
Fauci and Biden need to be retired immediately.
I was on this site talking about the mRNA vaxes and some troll got on my back about the J&J not being an mRNA vax. Turns out it is a DNA vax. Yeah, two of the vaxes are mRNA and the other two are DNA.
This is one of the few sites on the internet where people have a free exchange about treatment options and vaccine dangers. Yet there are a number of Freepers who troll these threads to extoll the deep state party line that no person has ever died from the vaccine and that alternative treatment options are frauds.
We know who they are.
True. I wonder if Fauci or Gates have paid them to be a troll. And how many other sites are they trolling?
Covid is a LIE, it is about CONTROL, it is the FLU..PERIOD
New study puts COVID infection fatality rate at only 0.15 percent

For those with your view society should give two choices take the vaccines one of three your choice or take a deep nasal swab from an active in the hospital covid patient this ensuring the most current variant and put that swab up your nose. Thus ensuring 100% inoculation it’s only according to you a .15% chance of death and that positive inoculation with active live covid will should you survive grant at least 6 months off antibodies and immunity. So would you put your life where your mouth is knowing you will 100% have to beat covid with just your personal immune system?
I will answer from the other side. I have both Pfizer shots and I have been face to face in a small enclosed room with and held the hand of a very sick covid patient for well over an hour. I was positively inoculated that was well over 14 days ago not so much as a sniffle so for me the Pfizer was 100% effective and yes I very much bet my life on it. It was a family member sick with covid they didn’t make it and I and his father were the only ones brave enough to be there at the end fully exposed not behind plastic he refused to go to the VA hospital so there was no quarantine behind plastic sheeting like his brother who went two weeks before him. I know now that Pfizer works and I am immune for now.
Yep, covid 19 has been a lie from the beginning. So I disagree with Deace when he says that covid wasn’t planned all along. It’s nothing but a flu, the testing is set up to keep it going. The test are bogus, not accurate and designed to keep it going, like the mask.
Study after study show that a small percentage of people die of covid, vaccination or not.
We all know that the WuFlu case count has been goosed beyond belief to inflate the number cases. To terrify the citizenry.
But what happens when you jack the case count?
The mortality rate declines. Bigly.
So what do you to to keep the fear factor stoked? Since folks won’t be terrified if people aren’t dropping like flies...
You have to pad the death toll, too.
Every death attributed to WuFlu needs to be examined, checked out to see if the cause was really WuFlu...or something else.
Even the deaths of the elderly. Especially the folks who would have passed due to failure to thrive, dementia...
Assume nothing.
Verify everything.
Then we’ll see what the evidence tells us.
why should anyone believe anything that the cdc, fauxi, and the scientific community says about a so called “deadly virus” when they refuse to speak up about the dangers of our feral government opening the border, inviting, and then distributing thousands of disease carrying invaders across our country during a so called “global pandemic”???...
All? Hardly. There are PLENTY of dimbulb Americans who believe everything spewed by the Big.gov, BigPharma and BigMedia cartels. The rest of your post is spot on, though.
Think about this for a sec...
If there were really that many American idiots, would Deep State have to steal elections...?
We sure do.
Problem with a lot of conservatives is that they are too...conservative.
Yes. :-)
Well, I have more faith in my fellow citizenry.
Deep State is the enemy.
Not us.
