Bla bla bla bleat bleat bleatFirst, I am not defending Fauci or the government. I have supplied two peer reviewed white papers that indicate the coronavirus was zootonic and most likely originated in the Wuhan market. Those studies researched the original covid virus victims and the vast majority of them had direct exposure to the Wuhan market. They also tested the cages in the Wuhan market and found the coronavirus in numerous cages. The studies researched the various strains of the corona virus and back traced them to the original sources, again, sources with direct contact with the Wuhan market. Furthermore, the studies showed that the virus did not mutate when it was contained within the animal kingdom but mutated often in human hosts. Not atypical of a zootonic virus.
But second, you claim the government lies to you and yet here you are, trumpeting out statements made by the government and government officials. I mean all of this is based on a classified document, rather convenient wouldn't you say, released by the Energy Department, you know, the "government". I mean just what is it that you don't understand about "a low level of confidence"?
Obviously, you don't want to talk about Newt's op-ed, a rant filled with Freudian slips that reveal the Trump is the source of our inflation and Newt has thrown a basic concept of conservatism out the door in his pursuit of populism. But let's return to the comedian in the OP, quoting a memo,
The evidence available to the Select Subcommittee suggests that Dr. Anthony Fauci
“prompted” Dr. Kristian Andersen, Professor, Scripps Research (Scripps), to write Proximal
Origin and that the goal was to “disprove” any lab leak theory.
On August 18, 2021, Scripps responded to then-Committee on Oversight and Reform
Ranking Member, James Comer, and then-Committee on the Judiciary Ranking Member, Jim
Jordan’s, July 29, 2021, letter to Dr. Andersen. In this letter, Scripps asserts that Dr. Andersen
“objectively” investigated the origins and that Dr. Anthony Fauci did not attempt to influence his work. Both statements do not appear to be supported by the available evidence.
In a court of law the lawyer would say, "asked and answered" at this point. "Objectively investigated the origins and that Dr. Anthony Fauci did not attempt to influence his work", notice, they put "objectively" in quotes, what amateurs these Republican staff members are. I mean read the memo, those statements ARE supported by the evidence even as presented in the memo. Hell, it closes by those staff members attempting to make a big deal out of changing the word "unlikely" to "improbable", as if it is some kind of "gotcha moment". Where do they get these staffers, middle school?
I see it time and time again with you guys. You post the headline, which is inaccurately written, and mostly ignore the content and certainly refuse to even check the original sources. You got your confirmation bias and off you run to trumpet it on the messageboard to get some feel goodies from your fellow idiots. The definition of herd mentality.
