Fauci-Speak: It's Lying-ese and a Desecration of Science

Thank you, Robert Wenzel, for the pic.

Thank you, Tom DiLorenzo.

Professor Harvey Risch of the Yale School of Public Health described Fauci’s method of lying and deceiving last night on Tucker Carlson’s show.  He first explained how real scientists discuss scientific matters:  When citing evidence, they routinely cite published articles and books, the authors, where they are published, along with the conclusions of the research.  They do this so that others can go and read the articles themselves, or if they are researchers, try to replicate the results.  That is the scientific method.  It is how economic science is practiced in my own experience having attended hundreds of academic meetings and conventions over the years.

In sharp contrast, the way that Fauci, a lifelong bureaucrat, argues is to say things like, “nearly every scientist I know agrees with me.”  Of course, this could include only people who work for him and are therefore bureaucratic yes men.  He rarely, if ever, gives chapter and verse of the “scientific research” that he pretends to be so worshipful of, who published it, where you can find it, etc.  He speaks Clintonese, in other words.

Any economist who defended his position about one of his research papers by simply saying that “everyone I know agrees with me” would be belly laughed out of the room and dismissed as an infantile-minded fool.  The same is true of everyone else who practices any kind of science, social or physical.

 


". . . hackers never go after imitation meat producers [like] Beyond Meat, Coca Cola, or vaccine companies. Instead, [the] attacks target self-sufficient, middle-class economies"

hackers never go after companies like imitation meat producer Beyond Meat, Coca-Cola, solar panel manufacturers or vaccine companies. Instead, he said that attacks target anything that supports self-sufficient, regional or middle class economies

from G. Edward Griffin's "Need to Know":  

Colonial Pipeline, the largest pipeline system in the US that is owned by Koch Industries and other investors, suffered a cyber attack on May 7, 2021 that provoked a shutdown of their operations for five days and led to temporary fuel shortages along the East Coast. The Biden administration refused to advise or assist the company despite widespread disruption. On May 31, a cyber attack on JBS SA in Brazil, the largest meat producer globally and in the US, forced the shutdown of all its US beef processing plants, wiping out output from facilities that supply 23% of American supplies. Both cyber attacks on vital industries used ransomware to extort payouts. The hacker group DarkSide was reported to be behind the Colonial Pipeline attack and received $90 million in Bitcoin over the last 9 months from 47 different wallets. Biden and the FBI blamed entities from Russia, but not the government, for the attacks. Biden’s Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo claimed that cyber attacks like the one that hit the Colonial pipeline last week are “here to stay.”

That last remark is kind of ominous.  What is her message?  Get used to shortages and adjust accordingly?
