People quickly decide whether to like or dislike other people, including those whom they only have seen on TV for a few seconds. During Coronamania’s first week, I visited an elderly relative, mask-free. (I know; how reckless!) She asked if I knew this new celebrity, Fauci. I said that I’d heard his name but hadn’t seen him. She described him as “cute.” When I asked what made him cute, she said he was small and had a funny voice. OK, I guessed, cute like a chipmunk. Based on this, she liked and thus trusted him.

I spent the first three decades of my career as a freelance court reporter. During my 20 years in NJ, I made a verbatim record of hundreds of depositions in medical malpractice and pharmaceutical liability cases. It was during this time that I saw Fauci claim that we were all in danger of contracting HIV. I immediately dismissed it. I knew he was lying. I didn't trust him or Birx during this covid fiasco. Court reporters, the only neutral party in the deposition suite, and a neutral party in the courtroom, having heard and seen hundreds of witnesses testify under oath, develop a sixth sense about the credibility of people, especially "experts."
Excellent summation, Mark. I have thought about reading RFK’s book, but felt it would be “preaching to the choir,” (since I’ve already heard a great deal of what is in the book) in addition to being both depressing & infuriating. Unbelievable that these demons are STILL in charge w/ the tsunami of information coming out re the lies, death & destruction physically, mentally, emotionally, economically, socially, etc. And that I anticipate will all be back (or worse) in time for the midterms.
I always go with my gut- he seemed like a conniving, two-faced, troll to me. There is no such thing as an "expert" in one's field. That's a red flag for me! Never bought into the lie, but so many people did/have. Just got back from California. It's sure different than Az. and hope we got son and daughter in law to look around, get out of their bubble and think about what we told time while visiting.
Like most regular people, I had never heard or thought of Fauci before COVID. The first time I saw him on television, I IMMEDIATELY, instinctively, with no need to analyze it further, clocked him as slimy and a liar- an inveterate politician, no matter what his actual stated profession was. None of it was even remotely convincing- within minutes, in my bones, he read as one of those guys that literally never gives a direct answer to the most basic questions ("where are you from? Are you sleeping with anyone else? What color is your hair?") but manages to impress people much younger or older than himself by limiting his interactions to highly controlled and brief contacts composed mostly of bluster or humblebragging.
I never, ever understood how he became a virtual god to so many. He scanned as a piece of shit immediately- to this day he reminds me of the first lawyer I met that I felt embodied the negative stereotype of his profession: a prevaricating sociopath.
Trump was not smart enough to question this from the outset and that plagues us all to this day. He was up against a propaganda machine that was too well-funded I suppose. I still hear people rattling on about how afraid they are of this virus, wearing masks outdoors here in Boston, walking by themselves, young healthy people in their '20s and 30s. It continues to be bizarre beyond belief...
I never understood the love and adulation showered upon Bill Gates. He created a third rate operating system and attempted to get it preinstalled on all computers to shut down competition. Then, within months of being sued, he had a come to Jesus moment and decided that instead of trying to control the world’s computing, his true calling was to set up foundations to improve public health in poor countries.
How does this not set off alarm bells? How is this guy a hero or a genius?
As a private practice doc in NNJ w a biochem degree and coming from a religious jewish family knowing genocide survivors, I was skeptical from the beginning. i saw fauci on TV in march 2020 saying masks didnt do much. Then by April or may it became obligatory to don the facial swastikas banners to show allegiance to the party… i mean the science. I knew something was very wrong by April 2020. And it only got worse. The whole vax episode was and is the creepiest and most disturbing thing ive ever lived through: people willingly injecting themselves and their KIDS with experimental drugs for some thing that they weren’t at risk for.
Great job Mr Oshinske , the real fauci was a tough read for me. As a career physician and someone trained as a scientist I’ve known since the beginning of my medical career in the 1990s that the federal health bureaucracy was hopelessly corrupt.
Luckily I’m in a private practice and I’m not beholden to anyone
This book has been sitting on my nightstand for ages. I occasionally pick it up and read two pages at a time. The book makes me appreciate the phenomenon of the page margin, having not before recognized a standard margin’s value. I haven’t managed to make my way past about the first 10% yet because I don’t want heaviness on my brain and soul before I sleep. I have all love for Bobby Kennedy Jr. though. He is a hero and brilliant. I feel like I will be surprised by little from the book due to my two- year long obsession with this topic. I am sure I will learn some new details if I read it. For example, I hadn’t before heard of that immunosuppressing recreational drug whose effects might have been mislabeled “AIDS.” That’s interesting. Thanks for your book report. You didn’t convince me to invest the saved time (from not reading) in ab workouts though. I am willing to spread wood chips. Is that close enough? Surely my abs might indirectly experience periodic engagement doing that?

Mr Mark: read this paper from Fauci‘s wife Christine Grady: this is a “ethics“ paper published recently this year. She discusses that it would be OK for employers to pressure employees to take a Covid shot.
A delusion is a false fixed belief that cannot be changed even with conflicting evidence. In the case of Covid, it's not about evidence- it's all about the narrative that's propagated to control the world's population thru fear. Because the media is in on the evil narrative, it's much easier to instill the fear, thus allowing people to stop thinking for themselves- most just get in line and don't even use their critical thinking skills. Mark, your research on this latest piece is quite extensive, congrats. I started going down the rabbit hole on Gates about 8 years ago- I was initially in disbelief, but now I get it. I really don't trust anyone anymore- sad place. I watch some major league baseball as I have a friend who manages a team close to you- some of the ads are for vaccines of every imaginable ailment. The answer is always another shot or another pill- and as you pointed out, our population is very unhealthy and way too dependent on pharma. Thanks for your research and insight! Keep em coming.

Fauci lied.
Love you
was hoping for something something like your Charlie Brown Great Pumpkin gone missing in the men’s room
Seeing our reality is harsh, ignorance is bliss.
Now I understand why so many prefer to stay in the dark
Thanks for another great article. And yes, I agree that Fauci should be infamous and reviled. Guantanamo-ed.
