What Anthony Fauci Teaches Us About the American Government Bureaucracy

Excerpt:
"Fauci’s “personal diary” was really a long digital document where he would write up a summary of his workday every night to help inform his post-retirement memoir and any sympathetic future biographers. The release provided some new details on the nature of the government’s response to the pandemic and, to an even greater extent, exposed the mentality of the bureaucrat who quickly emerged as the public face of it all.

These insights are instructive because, perhaps more than any other government official in recent years, the career of Anthony Fauci can teach us a lot about where power actually resides in America and how our system really works.

So, with Fauci’s name back on the news and some new details from his diary in hand, here are five important lessons that Fauci has done much to exemplify."

    Feel free to gloat over dodging the jab! Having the conviction and fortitude to separate yourself from the herd on this one deserves patting yourself on the back.

    I don't want to sound like I'm gloating. But, I really nailed it when I refused the jab. For my work I researched everything I could find on coronavirus, Fauci's work, related efforts to vaccinate for it...even various remedies against it even as they came to light during the pandemic. Just today I was talking with a young female colleague (who's often sick) about vitamin D3 and arginine - both of which, in spite of the media not covering it, were pivotal in the pandemic. I stood my ground. I was willing to quit and leave California if it came to it. As it turned out, I was recognized for my expertise and ended up being asked to help the state navigate the pandemic. Didn't take it. Instead I exercised "informed consent".

    Curious after seeing so many friends come down with cancer and having my work shifted about 50% toward the production of cancer drugs I decided recently to see the cancer rates over the past 5 years in the USA. What did I find from the CDC? Nothing. They are not publishing any such figures as far as I can tell.

    If you took that jab two or more times and you watched Fauci plead the 5th over a hundred times...it's normal to be concerned at this point...

    Mark Twain: "Everyone in office should serve 2 terms, one in Office, then one in Prison!"

    So... I'm thinking this is NOT new...

    Rand Paul should have had the Capitol Police handcuff Fraudci as soon as he fraudulently "took the fifth."

    Yes. The original intent was that Federal government was to be limited to protecting all Individual's rights to Life, Liberty, Property, and Happiness against all enemies foreign and domestic. Sadly, we have had those rights trampled upon so badly, that, I doubt any of the Founders would recognize America today.

    I'm getting older and evermore cynical. I believe my grand children may end up living in a dictatorship.

    We truely need a government that can do less, not more. Defunding government would be moving in the right direction. Defunding maybe too harse, but reduced funding is really needed.

    The mere fact that ",,, he would write up a summary of his workday every night to help inform his post-retirement memoir and any sympathetic future biographers..." tells you everything you need to know about this asshat. I would love to see him arrested for contempt of congress, as this would give us the best chance to see how much one of the autopen's blanket pardon is worth.

    A very nice modern day glimpse of the bureaucratic machine growing for over a century.

    This is the type of thing that most of us on here know instinctively. But thank you so much for the post - as it is something that so many of the people (saheeple?) do not know or do not understand. And unfortunately, if we do not enlighten them (those that are still able to hear reason) who will?
    So again - thanks for the post. The unelected bureaucrats are running the country. The current administration is clawing some of the powers back, and the SCOTUS is allowing SOME of the powers to be clawed back, but there is still so much to be done.
    Thanks for the reminder.
