Why Was Dr. Fauci Put in Charge of the COVID-19 Pandemic After His Disastrous HIV Epidemic Performance?
PJ Media ^ | 05/28/2021 | Stacey Lennox

Obviously, I am a Dr. Fauci skeptic. I often agree with his nemesis, Sen. Rand Paul. Fauci recently admitted that Paul was correct in saying that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) funded the Wuhan Institute of Virology. I reported the study that Paul seemed to be referring to on May 13. It not only specifies funding from NIAID, but it also states explicitly in the acknowledgments:

Experiments with the full-length and chimeric SHC014 recombinant viruses were initiated and performed before the GOF [Gain-of-function] research funding pause and have since been reviewed and approved for continued study by the NIH. The content is solely the responsibility of the authors and does not necessarily represent the official views of the NIH.

The NIH not only provided funding, but it also approved a continuation of the research during the pause in gain-of-function research during the Obama administration. It is not clear whether Fauci has ever been asked about the justification for that approval.

After 15 months of nearly daily research, listening to the doctors and researchers that the corporate media and health bureaucracy turned into heretics, and getting censored or forced to retract content based on politicized fact checks, I have hundreds of questions for Dr. Fauci. At this point, the one I am most curious about is how the man who botched the response to the HIV epidemic in colossal ways became the darling of the Left and then became part of leading the nation through a pandemic again.

I am (and always will be) a huge Trump fan. But I do have to admit, some of his “personnel choices” were a little “off” ... for example, Sessions and Fauci ... there are a bunch of them that never should have been allowed at the same podium with Trump. Amazing, probably the finest executive we’ve had in the White House, and one who was touted as picking good people (The Apprentice), really blew many personnel choices. Think how different things would be had he not made just those two choices.

Fauci is possibly the best bureaucrat in the history of government. Hoover did it through blackmail. I have no idea how Fauci has done this.

How could one man remain in charge of an agency for so many decades?

RE: for example, Sessions and Fauci ...

Was Mike Pence the right choice as his VP?

I’ve been asking that question since the Bat Flu gitgo. He has spent 40 years doing nothing to cure or prevent AIDS.

I think because they knew he studied it in NY. I wonder if they knew it came from his lab in wuhan.

And still refuses to step down at the age of 80.

Trump made disastrous decisions on the personnel surrounding him utterly disastrous it really surprised me considering he had a HUGE business and had to make personnel decisions constantly on people to make his businesses successful!! Trump never seemed to trust his GUT, and instead listened to his LOSER advisors!!

That’s why I take his endorsements with a grain a salt.

Because he’s a government worker whose worth is measured by his title and his pay. He doesn’t have to accomplish anything.

I was T the Dept of motor Vehicles yesterday. The entire computer system crashed. They couldnt say when it would come back up. Their IT guy won’t suffer ant loss for not being ready and able.

Weasel Pence was in charge of the disastrous Wuflu task force.

You do know that Trump had to get people through the Senate.

Many of these bureaucrats could not be fired, just moved around. Trump wasn’t a swamp guy and that made almost everything very difficult for him.

He wan’t even allowed to make recess appointments because of that jerk McConnell.

The biggest question of all is WHY DIDN’T TRUMP FIRE HIS ASS!?! That’s the biggest question of the Trump administration. That question pertains to 95% of DC entities (including his cabinet) that Trump had the authority to fire. It’s hard to write it off as simple stupidity.

It was Cocaine Mitch, who more than anybody, sabotaged Trump’s presidency.

You are absolutely right. Even after making the same mistake on personnel hundreds of time, he was as horrible at it on the last day as he was on his first. Trump ran against the swamp but totally immersed himself with swampers. What could possibly go wrong?

I'd give a pass to Trump on this one. . .it was Pence who brought in Fauci and the scarf lady.

Being a government/political administrator is far different and with far less leverage for staffing then it is for a business administrator.

Yep.

Blame belongs to Team McConnell-Pence.

McConnell says he has ‘total’ confidence in Fauci

Trump says he might fire Fauci. Technically, he can’t.
