Fox News host Tucker Carlson slammed Dr. Anthony Fauci for being hypocritical about his stance on the Wuhan coronavirus, particularly when it has to do with churches reopening and ongoing protests and riots across the country.”Anthony Fauci is likely the most powerful physician in the history of this country. He is one of the forces behind the mass quarantines that tanked the economy and put millions out of work. He says it’s worth it though because the threat is so profound, so profound, so imminent that you should wear goggles and stop shaking hands, in the name of science. So it’s interesting in light of that that one thing Anthony Fauci doesn’t seem concerned about at all are the riots going on, the mass protests where thousands of people are crowded into together touching each other without goggles,” Carlson explained.
The Fox News host played a clip of Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) questioning Dr. Fauci, specifically about whether or not people should be protesting and rioting. According to Fauci, he’s “not going to opine on limiting anything.””There is nothing Dr. Anthony Fauci won’t opine on as long as it doesn’t offend the popular, the fashionable left. Sex with strangers online? No problem. Shaking hands? Bad,” Carlson said. “Every day for the past several months virtually Dr. Fauci has advocated for a new coronavirus policy.”
Carlson played a clip of Fauci earlier this month saying politicians at the state and local level should be “as forceful as possible” when it comes to getting constituents to wear masks. According to the Fox host, this is a prime example of Fauci opining on government responses.
“Oh, so he is willing to weigh in on specific responses, government responses. What a fraud this guy is. ‘Put on your mask. Get off your powerboat. Put on some goggles. Do it for public health,'” Carlson mocked.
Another clip showed Fauci saying that even though it’s an “inconvenience” to go on lockdown and collapse the economy it’s something “we just have to do.”
Carlson reminded Fauci of an important tidbit: he’s not a young adult trying to make it in the world.
“Oh, we just have to do it. Really? Fauci is 79 but maybe if he had like 22-year-old kids who were trying to make their way in this world in an economy that is headed down the tubes, thanks largely to his recommendations, he would feel differently. It’s not merely an inconvenience when your economy collapses. It’s the end of the American Dream. That’s not a small thing,” Tucker explained. “Maybe it’s worth it. Maybe it’s not but if it is, then you probably shouldn’t take a pass on the question ‘Are protests and riots okay?’ unless you’re a total fraud, a complete fraud.'”
As Tucker stated, if Fauci was making recommendations based solely on the scientific evidence and data, he would have said something about the protests and riots that broke out across the country. Fauci wouldn’t pick and choose which things he is for and against. He would be against all large-scale gatherings, whether they are at churches or in the streets. You can’t favor one over the other and not come off as making political decisions.
The Kennedy interview seems legit:

I’ll let that stand on its own. What bothers me about all these attacks on Fauci, is that this is just the most recent of MANY attacks on Donal Trump appointees — attacks which the president himself refuses to be dragged into. Fauci, Bolton, Bannon… When will it end?

Robert Kennedy Jr. and Harvard Attorney Alan Dershowitz debated on the topic of the coronavirus vaccine back in July.
During the debate, Kennedy Jr. claimed that Dr. Anthony Fauci invested $500 million in the vaccine that is not safe by any means and Fauci owns half the patent so he’s due to make millions.” Apparently isn’t just a fraud–he’s a crook.
Speaking of CV-2 fraud–this is from the Epoch Times, as reprinted on the Zero Hedge site.
“Texas State Health Department Corrects Death Toll After Mistakenly Attributing 225 Deaths To COVID-19
Authored by Paula Liu via The Epoch Times
The Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS) announced that its system made an error calculating the number of deaths directly caused by COVID-19, according to a tweet sent out on July 30.
The error was discovered on Wednesday, and Texas DSHS indicated that the error incorrectly categorized 225 as COVID-19 fatalities despite COVID-19 not being listed as a direct cause of death on the death certificate, according to the Tweet.
Texas DSHS stated that the issue was revealed after a manual quality check and by the end of the day on Wednesday, the number of COVID-19 fatalities was fixed to reflect the corrected data in time for the COVID-19 deaths update on Thursday.
On Monday, the Texas DSHS began using death certificates as a way to identify the number of deaths directly caused by the disease, according to a news release issued by the Texas DSHS.
Because a death certificate is required to be filed within 10 days of an individual’s death, the DSHS stated that this would greatly improve the speed of counting fatalities caused by COVID-19, as well as providing the public with detailed information about where and when the death occurred.
This method does not count individuals who contracted COVID-19 but died of other causes.
Prior to this method, fatalities were counted and reported to the DSHS through a regional or local health department after it had been notified and had verified the death themselves.
Overcounting COVID-19 Deaths
A problem with the prior method was that when filing death certificates, hospitals were incentivized to overstate the number of COVID-19 deaths due to receiving monetary compensation for doing so, something that Rep. Blaine Luetkemeyer (R-Mo.) called a “perverse incentive,” according to a House hearing that took place on Friday.
U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Robert Redfield said during the panel hearing that he agrees this over-reporting of COVID-19 deaths does exist in hospitals and is something that has been seen with other viruses, such as HIV.
“In the HIV epidemic, somebody may have a heart attack but also have HIV—the hospital would prefer the [classification] for HIV because there’s greater reimbursement, so I do think there’s some reality to that,” said Redfield.
“When it comes to death reporting, though, ultimately, it’s how the physician defines it in the death certificate, and … we review all those death certificates. So I think probably it is less operable in the cause of death, although I won’t say three are not some cases. I do think, though, when it comes to hospital reimbursement issues or individuals that get discharged, there could be some play in that for sure.” ”
There are so many kinds of fraud going on since the CV-2 pandemic was first declared, that it is impossible to get an accurate picture of how many deaths caused by COVID-19 there really are. I believe the actual numbers are far less than that reported by the CDC and Johns Hopkins.
