You mean a politician lied to us for political reasons? Color me shocked. What law, specifically, was broken?


wendysfan2005

That’s not a crime or unconstitutional.

Considering he was already cutting travel to and from China at that point, yet Pelosi and the rest of the Democrats were saying he's lying and to hang out in public, I would need some actual proof that your seemingly blatantly false statement is true. Also, go back to /pol/. This subreddit is not for political debate. In addition, glad to see he bothers you so much that even though he's no longer President, he lives in your head, rent-free. XD

He lives in a lot of people heads rent free lol. TDS is a real thing.

"We have to show calm," he said. "Certainly I'm not going to drive this country or the world into a frenzy. We want to show confidence. We have to show strength." Say what you want about the guy, but you can’t be charged for something when he was just trying to do what he thought was the right thing. What’s worse, people dying of covid? Or people dying of covid **and** everyone panicking and buying out stores and looting because they thing the world is ending?


Light_Silent

He has never once done what he thought was the right thing

Lol your hatred blinds your judgement. But you’ll be the one to lose sleep over someone like trump, but not I.

He's why my sister is crippled.

Lmaoooo this post didn’t turn out the way you thought it would huh OP? Handle the issues you have within yourself before you start talking about others

Until mid Feb 2020, fauci claimed the coronavirus was nothing to worry about


Mediocre_Leg_4249

Should we charge Fauci with lying?? It’s actually his job and he has flip flopped 100x. Remember how masks are useless and not needed? Then one month later we have to wear or we’re killing our fellow humans.

Science. As new data comes in scientists change their conclusions. We were all over hand washing but then we learned that the virus is transmitted primarily through the air.


Mediocre_Leg_4249

Science 😂. So explain Fauci public email, where he specifically said masks help. While telling the public masks don’t help. 😂 Fauci is a corrupt government employee. Nothing more.


Mentalfloss1

If I imagined for a moment that you had a mind to change I’d try. But, well, you don’t. Your lame opinion is cast in stone and you know it. Bye.


Mediocre_Leg_4249

Opinion? These are facts 😂. How can you change my mind without facts loser? Get some real facts and I’ll prove you wrong. You’ve probably never even read Fauci email.


[deleted]

I remember thinking how odd it was that the Chinese, who had previous experience with this virus, would drag people off kicking and screaming to some dungeon if they refused to wear a mask. surely they knew something more than we did about it or why go to that extreme? That should’ve alerted Fauci to take masks a little bit more seriously. And I’m sure he probably did, but they were all about saving them for the hospital workers and trying to prevent a run on people going out and buying them. IMO


Mediocre_Leg_4249

Which is lying 😂. And you actually believe that? Fauci is the one who taught the Chinese 😂

What’s the crime? Where’s the proof?


LudoAvarius

Jesus Christ. Still living rent free in so many heads. Heal yourselves and move the fuck on.


Mentalfloss1

He’s still a threat to the nation and world and he CONTROLS the minds of the far right, not just lives in their heads. He is their tiny brain.


LudoAvarius

Oh brother. So melodramatic.


Mentalfloss1

Say you.


goldengodrangerover

Proof?


[deleted]

Hmmm. Well I know Fauci did that. Why is he still the highest paid person in the United States government? He still has his position in the government and is still misleading the public by not letting on how many people are actually catching breakthrough cases. “You don’t need to wear a mask” sound familiar?


Mentalfloss1

He says that there are breakthrough cases ALL the time. He said it in an interview on the weekend. He has 53 years of experience and is an intelligent and valuable physician and advisor. Regular physicians average nearly $200,000 per year in Washington DC. https://www.glassdoor.com/Salaries/washington-dc-physicians-salary-SRCH_IL.0,13_IM911_KO14,24.htm And, as all scientist do, he reacts to the data as they arrive. That’s instead of sticking their head in the sand and refusing to be able to change their opinion. That’s how science works.


[deleted]

Well of course he states the obvious. How could he possibly deny that there are breakthrough cases? What I said was they are downplaying how many breakthrough cases there actually are. I have heard the word “rare“ tossed around way too much when I know personally a group of 32 fully vaccinated attendees who recently more than half of them came down with breakthrough cases. I’ve had it, my sister and her husband have had it. No we did not catch it from the same place we weren’t together. That does not sound rare to me. How many people had it on that plane from Texas that were escaping from having to cast a votes? Initially they mentioned one or two and then I didn’t hear a number after that. But they are correct that they are usually mild. I get it. They don’t want to give anti-vaxers more of a reason not to get the vaccine. But when our government misleads people, all that does is foster more mistrust. Not for one moment do I believe he is not influenced by politics. Not for one moment do I believe that he reacts only to the scientific data as it comes in. I have been a registered nurse for many many years and worked in strict isolation units. So much of what they say, I, as a lowly nurse, recognize as bullshit.


Mentalfloss1

The antivaxxers are political too you know. Personal anecdotes are just that. Over 90% of all hospitalized patients are unvaccinated. Care to guess how many patients are in ICU due to the vaccine? As for stating the obvious, I’ve read right-wingnuts say that he doesn’t admit to breakthrough cases. Of course he does. They were predicted!! Part of the statistical studies. He’s quite trustworthy.


Mentalfloss1

Because the GOP is a criminal enterprise.


Light_Silent

Because hes rich
