It is now official:
Dr.
Anthony Fauci has been
"sidelined" by president Trump...
This is nothing new.
Dr. Fauci has not been fired as head of
the NIAID. Moreover, it is unclear
whether this new appointment will trigger a significant shift in US
government policy regarding Covid-19.
While Dr. Fauci no longer briefs
Trump, he nonetheless continues
to play a key role.
He interfaces with
key health agencies of the US government, foundations, the US
Congress, not to mention his links to
Big Pharma.
He has played a
central role in the media disinformation campaign.
He is firmly supported by the Democratic Party.
Trump has not fired
him. And Fauci has no intention to resign from his position as
head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious
Diseases (NIAID) which plays a central role in the
management of the pandemic together with the CDC headed by Dr.
Robert R. Redfield.
Both the NIAID and the
CDC are corrupt entities...
A relentless fear
campaign is ongoing sustained by fake data and manipulated death
certificates...
What is required is an
independent commission of inquiry.
Dr.
Scott Atlas, who has now joined
the covid task force as advisor to the White House,
"warns against
coronavirus overreaction and hysteria, pushes for the reopening
of schools and sports leagues, and downplays the need for
broader testing to root out the virus."
Politico
The fear campaign must be
ended.
It is based on lies and
fabrications. Censorship of medical doctors should also be
addressed.
The crucial issues are the reopening of the US economy which is
absolutely fundamental together with the repeal of social
engineering, the reopening of schools, colleges and universities.
The lockdown triggers a process
of disengagement of human and material resources from the
productive process.
The real economy is
brought to a standstill.
Curtailing economic
activity undermines the "reproduction of real life".
This not only
pertains to the actual production of the "necessities of life"
(food, health, education, housing) it also pertains to the
"reproduction" of social relations, political institutions,
culture, national identity…
The lockdown destroys
the very fabric of civil society.
There are conflicts
within the capitalist system which are rarely addressed by
the mainstream media.
Billionaires, powerful
banking and financial institutions (which are creditors of
both governments and corporations) are waging an undeclared
war against the real economy.
Whereas the Big
Money financial and banking establishment are "creditors",
the corporate entities of the real economy which are being
destabilized and driven into bankruptcy are "debtors".
This diabolical
process is not limited to wiping out small and medium
sized enterprises.
Big Money is also the
creditor of large corporations (including airlines, hotel
chains, hi tech labs, retailers, import-export firms,
construction firms, etc.) which are now on the verge of
bankruptcy.

Ironically,
these corporate
interests are not taking a firm stance against the lockdown.
The
lockdown of the US economy
should not be an election issue.
It must be repealed
as part of a national consensus.
Paralyzing economic
activity is not a solution. Quite the opposite...
The Joe Biden
election campaign is being pressured to retain the lockdown of
the US economy as a means to resolving the covid-19 pandemic.
What utter nonsense...
The closure of the economy is the cause of mass poverty and
unemployment.
Ironically, Joe Biden is
supported by sectors of the "Left" as well as the AFL-CIO which
represents millions of American workers who have lost their jobs as
a result of the lockdown.
Good News:
Fauci's Out and Common Sense Might be Returning

from answering question
about drug Trump is touting

These days it seems there is not much good news out there.
People are still
panicked over the coronavirus, governments are still trampling
civil liberties in the name of fighting the virus, the economy -
already teetering on the edge of collapse - has been kicked to
the ground by what history may record as one of the worst
man-made disasters of all time:
shutting down the
country to fight a cold virus...
That's why we'll take
good news wherever we can get it, and President Trump's hiring
of Dr. Scott Atlas to his coronavirus task force may just
be that good news we need.
As the media has
reported, President Trump has sidelined headline-hogging
Anthony Fauci in favor of Atlas, the former Stanford
University Medical Center chief of neuroradiology.
Recall, Fauci was the "expert" who told us a few months ago
that,
we would
never be able to shake hands again...
Fauci's advice,
forecasts, and assessments proved to be wildly wrong,
contradictory, and just plain bizarre:
When Anthony Fauci
demanded a lockdown of the economy for an indefinite
period he actually seemed oblivious to the havoc it
would wreak on the economy and on people's lives.
People like Fauci and
others who demanded
lockdowns and
stay-at-home orders were still collecting their
paychecks, so what did they care about anyone else?
Dr. Scott Atlas is not only a former top physician and
hospital administrator: as a senior fellow at the Hoover
Institution he also understands the policy implications of
locking a country down.
On April 22, Dr. Atlas wrote an op-ed in The Hill titled,
"The
data is in - Stop the panic and end the total isolation."
In the article he
made five main points that are as true today as when he wrote
them:
-
an
overwhelming majority of people are at no risk of dying
from Covid
-
protecting
older people prevents hospital overcrowding
-
locking down
a population actually prevents the herd immunity
necessary to defeat the virus
-
people are
dying because they are not being treated for non-Covid
illnesses
-
we know what
part of the population is at risk and we can protect
them...
Imagine how many
thousands of lives could have been saved had the Administration
listened to Dr. Atlas back in April.
CDC Director
Robert Redfield
Jr. admitted last
month that,
lockdowns were
killing more Americans than Covid...
"First do no harm"
was thrown out the window and nearly six months of wrong-headed
policy has done perhaps irreparable harm to the country.
South Dakota and
Sweden did virtually nothing to
lock down or restrict their populations and they actually fared
better than lockdown states in the US.
They had lower
death rates, their hospitals were never over-run with Covid
patients, and they have an economy to go back to.
We very much hope
that Dr. Atlas will not "moderate" his message to please the
blob in Washington...
Trump's Covid
policies to this point,
have caused
more harm than good...
With Fauci out of the
driver's seat we finally have a chance of turning things
around...
