“We’re making seemingly life-changing decisions for other people based on facts that clearly are not facts.”
Saw that rant on Tucker; it was great. And true.
Not sure why Fauci changed his tune — yet again. He has been consistently inconsistent in everything he’s said since January (at least). It’s fine if he’s schizo and a nobody, but when he has the power to destroy the best country ever on earth — that’s a problem. There should be consequences. I don’t know what, or how, but what he did was wrong.
Stop complaining Portnoy. :-)
On March 9th he advised healthy people to go on a cruise.
Now, this dumb a** expert says to get out in the sun and fresh air.
And if it's a good thing to do on Memorial day, it's a good thing on any day.
And remember, the sun kills the damn virus almost instantly.
My take is...don't use sunscreen...just limit your time.
Every politician or political person eventually provides every possible answer to any particular question, and gives a different answer depending on the audience he or she is talking too.
The real problem is not the politician but the people in the audience. Once they hear what they “want” to hear, they ignore that something different came out of the same politician’s voice not 2 minutes earlier. This confirmation bias makes the listeners the real enemy of freedom more so than the politicians. This is why I am against democracy (or more importantly I am against anything close to democracy such as a republic).
There are simply too many dumb, manipulable, “confirmation bias” driven people on this planet to make anything that resembles “democracy” (not necessarily a government based on the consent of the people, which I consider different) to be successful. The tyranny of the majority or even worse, the tyranny of the angry and motivated plurality inevitably rules the day and is no better than the tyranny of an oligarchy.
Do I have a better answer? Well, repealing the 16th and 17th amendment to the U.S. Constitution would be a good start as we should get back to a better balance between the states and the federal government. The “grand compromise” that our founding fathers created was one of conflict and forces great compromises before any level of government could do anything.
Of course, repealing anything, let alone a Constitutional amendment, will never happen and thus we march to the tune of the angry, motivated plurality each and every election cycle.

Presidential Intelligence briefings. More than one president has noticed that most assesments, longterm, short term, boiled down to “I don’t know, could be anything”. Fauci is a competent cover all the bases and my ass gov’t drone.

Fauci is a FRAUD!! He is NOT nice....he’s a Hilliary loving COUP PLOTTER!
What an odd world.
Fauci is only a little bit sharper than Joe Biden. Are they both 79?
Even the word seventy-nine sounds like SENILE if your hearing is not good.
Wondering when Fauci will announce his book deal. When the movie comes out he will insist that only he can be cast as himself.
I have to laugh because otherwise I would be pissed off.
Fauci is like the wind. Sometimes it blows east, sometimes it blows west, sometimes it blows north, sometimes it blows south. But no matter the day or time, it BLOWS.
Fauci is not a scientist he’s a bureaucrat. Head has been the head of the NIAID for 36 years. This is not a research position.
Fauci is basking in his own contrived celebrity since this thing put him behind a podium.
He feels he needs to say something profound every time someone shoves a microphone in his face no matter how contradictory or stupid it is.
End the “official expert” roles in government. All of them. The government decision makers can on an as needed basis pull in a variety of “experts” and get their opinions, which in the best case will not all be the same. None will be “the best” and perfect, there is no such thing.
It is wrong to assume merely appointing someone to a position suddenly imbues them with unsurpassed intelligence, knowledge and opinions on a subject for which none others can compete.
The key problem with Fauci is that he holds an “expert” position over a subject in government that should not exist.
One smartest people I ever knew, Tom, whose education was a Ph.D. in mathematics or electrical engineering, would ask great questions in meetings. Often it would be something fairly simple that I thought I should probably know, but I was too embarrassed to ask for an explanation. Tom would ask and usually it was what I was thinking anyway but not quite sure of. From him I learned to ask questions even if they seem simple. It's OK to say you don't know.
I believe “the wisdom of the crowd” is starting to take hold.
Sooner or later people will start seeing through the bullsh*t.
