Anthony Fauci returned to the Senate to testify and engaged in a very bitter and partisan exchange with Republican Senators Rand Paul and Roger Marshall that represent Kentucky and Kansas respectively. As the lives of Americans are once again being disrupted by omicron it is infuriating to watch “America’s Doctor” behaving like a politician. He referred to Senator Marshall as a “moron”.

Mr. Fauci has become a very angry and bitter old man. This is not the man who should be responsible for dealing with the threat of covid. Understandably, Fauci is angry because he has received death threats and in December one lunatic was arrested for planning to murder him. Certainly, threats and murder attempts deserve to be condemned.

Senator Paul referred to the attempted murders of Republican members of Congress in 2017 by a supporter of Bernie Sanders and pointed out that Republicans do not blame Sanders for the actions of one lunatic. Fauci attempted to blame Senator Paul for the actions of the lunatic that was arrested last month. Fauci like a skilled politician is attempting to deflect attention from his responsibilities for funding gain of function research in China.

Threats are odious and vile but are common for public officials and politicians, religious leaders, celebrities, and many others. Fauci has the option of resigning if he believes the pressures of his job are too much for him. He is eighty years old and has been in his present position for thirty seven years.

There are those of us who are angry because our lives have been disrupted. Fauci is being criticized for using the taxes of Americans and sending them to China to fund the infamous lab in Wuhan. Senator Paul and others cited evidence that showed Fauci and Frances Collins at the National Institute of Health silenced and intimidated colleagues who suggested the origins of the virus were not natural but was created by humans at the lab in Wuhan.

The self pitying little man who the media calls “America’s Doctor” believes he is unaccountable. A few months ago he dismissed criticism of himself by suggesting those who criticize him are criticizing science. He reminds one of the Jack Nicholson character in “A few Good Men” who lost his composure and began ranting.

Both Fauci and the scientific community have much to answer for. Unfortunately, the propaganda machine that is the media will never hold them to account. Scientific arrogance can be seen by the disregard for the average person whose money they have used to help bring about a pandemic that has deprived that person of his personal freedom.

The ultimate hypocrisy of Fauci and his fellow scientists (the ones who support him) and most liberals can be seen by their collaboration with the most evil government on earth. Why were they even working with the Chinese?

China is one of the most ruthless governments in the world. Political prisoners are murdered with a bullet to the head. The families are then taxed to pay for the bullet. Many have referred to the “soft genocide” under way against the Chinese Muslims known as “Ughyurs”. These are a Turkic people that are now in concentration camps and are brutally tortured and repressed.

The scientific community have no interest in the mass human rights violations in China. That they were supporting any activities in China indicates how immoral scientists really are. Funding anything in China today would be the equivalent of funding activities in Hitler’s Germany in 1935. There are certain regimes that are so obviously evil that there can be no justification for funding them.

The media and the Democrats have overhyped the pathetic and ridiculous capital riots of last year. They have ignored the much more sinister realities that have transpired within the scientific community and the growing political influence of “America’s Doctor”. The man we must not criticize.

Former Vice President and architect of the Iraq war Dick Cheney criticized today’s Republican Party. He said he is disappointed in the leadership of today’s Party. Daughter Elizabeth Cheney referred to a “cult of personality”. The Cheney’s were in Washington for the first anniversary of the capital hill riots.

The riots last year were certainly not a good thing, and it was not Donald Trump’s finest hour. It was also not quite the threat to democracy that Democrats and neocons think it was. The real threat to democracy was the attempted coup/impeachment against Trump in early 2020 but that is another story.

The capital hill riots when all is said and done were a very minor affair. Compared to the Iraq war which Cheney aggressively supported, the riots are of no significance. The invasion of Iraq led to the deaths of countless Iraqi lives in a civil war followed by the further horrors and mass murders perpetrated by “Al Quada in Mesopotomia” and its Islamic State successor.

One third of Iraq (and later one third of Syria) would be occupied by Islamic State. Shiite Muslims, Christians, and Yazidis were slaughtered in cold blood. The Iraq war gave life to radical jihadists. Dick Cheney and his associates such as Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz, Douglas Feith, Condoleeza Rice and others had fantasies about “democracy” in the middle east.

The Iraq war was a disastrous failure. The rise of Donald Trump within the Republican Party was historically welcome as this led to the downfall of the war criminals of the Bush-Cheney era. In 2016, it became fairly obvious that Trump’s rise was a threat to the neocons. Neoconservative Max Boot wrote an op ed in the New York Times endorsing Hillary Clinton’s candidacy for President.

Hundreds of pro war neocons would subsequently support Hillary’s candidacy. Hillary would have delivered the wars that they wanted. The cabal of pro war schemers like John Bolton and others working in the shadows represent a far greater threat to American democracy than the mobs of January 6, 2021.

Dick Cheney said the present Republican leadership does not resemble the Republicans he knew when he was a Congressman. His Republicans left to support Hillary Clinton’s Presidential Campaign in 2016. His Republicans made very clear that they do not like Donald Trump who very much enjoys the support of conservatives today.

The Bush-Cheney administration created the climate for Islamic State to establish its “Caliphate”. Islamic State went on to terrorize and bomb Paris, London, and Belgium. American cities were also the victims of Islamic State attacks as well from California to Florida. The January 6 riots cannot be compared in any serious way to the devastation wrought by the Bush-Cheney administration.

Good riddance to the Cheney family. Good riddance to the Clintons, and good riddance to the Bush family. In 2024 at the latest we will say good riddance to the Bidens.

During the great depression FDR went on radio for his fireside chats to talk to the country. FDR was a President who exuded optimism. Ronald Reagan was like that as well. Those kind of attitudes are crucial for the morale of people during difficult times

The attitudes that media and scientists have during the present crisis is frustrating and infuriating. Omicron is a setback in the fight against covid. But, this is not March 2020 nor is it the winter of 2020 to 2021.

We have come a very long way. Can anyone say that the year 2021 was not much better than 2020? Even with Omicron, this is a mild variant in comparison to its predecessors. The infections in South Africa have decreased dramatically. The present situation is difficult but there are signs that are encouraging.

The Scientific community sees things very bleakly. I understand we need to be realistic and not be in denial. Do we have to see things in the worst possible light.

Scientists do not understand diplomacy or behave like emotionless machines. Take for example the Greek scientist Elias Mosialos. This Scientist was attempting to persuade Greeks to wear masks. A worthy endeavor.

This man posted a blasphemous picture of the holy family in which he mocked and ridiculed the virginity of the most holy Panaghia within the context of mask wearing. This fool does not realize that angering millions of Orthodox Greeks does not make it easier to persuade people to wear masks.

Most Greek bishops have endorsed vaccinations and have assisted the government in efforts to stop covid. Yet, Mr. Mosialos angered the bishops in Greece. The contempt for Christianity that this well educated Scientist expressed is an example of the dangerous divide that exists between the scientific community and many ordinary people.

People around the world are tired, frustrated, and angry. No doubt the Scientists feel the same way. But the Scientists need to understand human nature as it is. Human civilization over the past two years has suffered a trauma unprecedented in this lifetime.

The Scientific community has estranged itself from millions of people owing to the support given to the Wuhan lab in China. From the very beginning of this pandemic Scientists lost the confidence of people owing first and foremost to association with China. The inability of Scientists to show any form of optimism and the doom and gloom attitudes have not helped.

What are people supposed to think in a horror movie world where life has been completely disrupted only to see Scientists who have no empathy for regular people? Yes, people should be responsible and wear masks and be vaccinated. Scientists likewise need to have more empathy and appreciation for the average person.

Scientists do not relate to ordinary people. That is a problem and it can be seen in the example of a Greek Scientist ridiculing the Mother of God. This Scientist has totally undermined his own efforts to convince people to wear masks.

At a a time when unity among men matters, science has become politicized and detached from ordinary citizens. This is an obstacle that needs to be overcome. Scientists should not mock religious faith and they should be inclined to acknowledge that things have improved despite recent setbacks.

The anti vaxxers and Scientists have much in common. They both view the present world with a sense of pessimism and negativity. Since the Scientists and the media are publicizing nothing but negativity and minimizing facts that offer hope they should not be surprised that so many people believe that things are hopeless.

Orthodox Christians and people of other faiths take solace knowing that God is there. Leave it to a scientist to mock faith which has proved invaluable to so many people during these evil times.

Former Greek President and Minister of Foreign Affairs Karolos Papoulias passed away. He was an honorable man and a Greek nationalist who as Foreign Minister under the late Andreas Papandreou took very hard line positions on Cyprus and Macedonia. In 2004, the treacherous Prime Minister Costas Simitis, Foreign Minister George Papandreou, Constantinos Mitsotakis, and Dora Bakoyannis plotted against Cypriot President Tassos Papadopoulos.

Papadopoulos refused to accept a United Nations plan for Cyprus that would have solidified the Turkish invasions and occupation. For this reason, the above mentioned buffoons sought to undermine the President of Cyprus. President Papoulias refused to support them and maintained his support for a free Cyprus.

May his memory be eternal!
