Insider Assessment of Fauci

[Nihonto Chicken]

Linked below a recent ZH article by a NIH insider regarding Fauci and the good ol' boy (and girl) public health mafia that controlled medical opinion in the COVID daze, FWIW.

"Fauci is highly territorial and has never allowed anyone—even the President of the United States—to mess with his fiefdom."

Glad he is no longer in charge. He is evil.

ain't there supposed to be some law that says if you are a top weapons guy for USA you can't just go to work for some "adversary" nation's weapons program?

of course I guess he could come back with "USA was funding bio-weapons in China for years, probably still is".

I heard the total amount of Tax Dollars that went through Fauci's hands over the years was insane, $90 billion or $900 billion or something. He was practically a one man cabinet level Dept.

Even he seems now lame, if not compromised, its nice that RFKjr who wrote "The Real Fauci" book was put in charge. I hear its a great book, Research Lawyer wise, but really needs a good Cliff Notes version for the rest of us. Maybe that is legally tricky to do and still be Law Suit Proof?

In my mind, this is the crucial part (from the article)...

...But NIH’s errors are not merely a matter of oversight failure—they are the result of scientific arrogance compounded by an ingrained, symbiotic relationship between federal science officers and the research academics they fund. This relationship is mutually beneficial as scientists depend on NIH funding to build their careers, while NIH officers rely on these same scientists to generate the groundbreaking studies that justify new initiatives and expand NIH’s influence.

Academic scientists and NIH bureaucrats don’t just collaborate professionally—they often emerge from the same university laboratories, attend the same conferences, and publish together in the same journals. Instead of government oversight of academic research, we have a system that rewards allegiance and mutual advancement. This cozy relationship is cemented by lavish taxpayer-funded travel to international conferences, where federal officers and the university scientists they support fly around the world, stay together at luxury hotels, and forge alliances that prioritize career advancement over public safety...

It goes back to... If everyone is thinking alike, then no one is thinking.

It also goes back to... If you ask questions, you're part of the problem. As I expressed on a number of threads, all Science begins with a question and the questions never truly stop or shouldn't. Everything is relevant or potentially so until it's demonstrated not to be; i.e., don't just let someone tell you, make them show you. A dirty little secret is that by making them show you, their assumptions and premises show, meaning that relevant questions can be asked.

But…but….but….settled science….
