| Fauci Says He Dismissed Lab Leak Theory to Placate China |
| 2022-12-08 |
| [Free Beacon] In the early days of the pandemic, Dr. Anthony Fauci often dismissed the theory that the coronavirus came from a biological lab in China. He testified last week his reluctance was out of fear that speculation about the virus origins would "increase tensions" with China. Fauci’s comments came during a seven-hour deposition at the center of a lawsuit filed by the attorneys general of Missouri and Louisiana against the Biden administration. Fauci stated throughout the deposition that he was troubled by "wild speculation and allegations" that the Chinese government either deliberately or accidentally leaked the virus from a biological lab in Wuhan. He also said he was "afraid" that "blaming the Chinese" for the outbreak would "increase tensions and reduce cooperation" with Beijing to prevent future pandemics. "There was no evidence of that at the time, and that's what I was concerned about," said Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. Fauci’s reluctance to entertain the lab leak hypothesis may have slowed the United States government’s efforts to investigate the origins of the pandemic. A growing body of evidence points to a lab leak as the most likely explanation for the outbreak. Republicans on the Senate Intelligence Committee released a report in October that said an accidental leak from the Wuhan lab was the "most likely" cause of the pandemic. Fauci has come under scrutiny for not only dismissing the lab leak theory, but also because the National Institutes for Allergy and Infectious Diseases has funded research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. The lawsuit alleges that the Biden administration colluded with social media companies to censor politically sensitive content. The attorneys general have accused the administration of pressuring social media companies to censor content that questioned the origins of the virus, and the efficacy of masks and the coronavirus vaccines. They have also alleged that the FBI worked closely with Facebook and Twitter to block access to an October 2020 news article that revealed emails from Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop. The Washington Free Beacon reported that two FBI officials who met with the Big Tech companies are Democratic donors. Fauci denied coordinating with social media companies on their virus-related content, but revealed that his daughter worked as a software engineer at Twitter until last year. He also said he met with Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg on a campaign to promote the coronavirus vaccines. |

| #11 Tony has built a hall of mirrors with a large number of public statements, reacted non-public statements and shell companies. It will be hard to navigate through to the truth short of a hostile Musk-like takeover of the government. Congress will be blocked and stymied by the Executive up until Jan 2025, potentially. If a president is elected that wants to placate China and protect the institutions of our government, we will have neither truth nor justice for the millions who died from this manufactured bio agent. If we elect a president not beholden to the bureaucrats, it will be hammer time through Tony’s disco palace. There is no longer a precedent for Executive privilege of previous administrations. |

| #10 Because making decisions based on feelings is so totally The Science! that I can't even. Think 1-3 have it; deflecting blame to something technically true but leads nowhere. |

| #9 After about an hour they get off-topic and start talking about the epistemology of science, but the first hour is gold. I took notes. |

| #6 A discussion by Dr. Jordan Peterson with a scientist very familiar with the whole situation. It stinks to high heaven and the virus is very likely to have come from the Wuhan lab. Long but afterwards you'll have a good idea of what's been going on. |

| #5 Since when do US government officials facing a serious crisis go out of their way to favor the interests of a foreign country? Except Israel, of course. He did it because he was up to his eyeballs in their corruption. He did it, he knew he did it, and was desperately trying to cover it up. Corrupt social media were pleased to help him censor anyone who came close to the truth. Censorship only happens to people who are a threat. Only to those who are fearless about exposing facts that harm the situation of the powerful and elevate our power, the little guy. |

| #4 Karl Edward Wagner's short story 'The Fourth Seal' described a clique of medical professionals just like Fauci. If you can find a collection it was included in,do grab it. One was Where the summer ends : the best horror stories of Karl Edward Wagner Volume 1 but I can't find it in the market. I'll see if I have a copy somewhere. |
