Conversely, these comments are totally defamatory and his book on Fauci goes further. Yet, RFK Jr. hasn't been sued. Why?
Fauci believes RFK Jr is mentally ill. And with good reason.
He said
It’s very unfortunate because I don’t think he is inherently malicious. I just think he’s a very disturbed individual. And I … I don’t like to have to say that, but it’s very, very clear. And it’s a shame because he comes from such an extraordinarily distinguished family, many members of whom I know personally, and I was very close to Senator Ted Kennedy, who was such an extraordinary person and a real warrior for public health. And to have RFK Jr. just spouting things that make absolutely no sense.”
No he didn't block doctors from prescribing bactrim. I don't even think he had a way of doing this.
The issue was guidelines. The activists who met with Fauci wanted him to issue guidelines recommendating bactrim
So why didn't Fauci issue this recommendation?
Because the science didn't support it. Not yet. There was no study showing it was effective and there some severe side effects.
Also probably because the activists asking for this were not doctors. One of the lead people pushing for this was an acapella singer and songwriter. The songwriter is the guy who claimed17,000 excess deaths. He did not do any science to come up with that number, btw. He also died from AIDS complications 4 years after the guidelines came out. Because pneumocystic pneumonia was not the only ways AIDS could kill you which shows that method of getting to 17,000 is dubious.
Here's is his DRs account of this bactrim debate
https://www.poz.com/blog/the-long-road-to-pcp
Dr. Fauci wanted data from a clinical trial of Bactrim for PCP prophylaxis in AIDS before he would recommend its use.
In 1989 a study was done
https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/article-abstract/377988
And the CDC issued the guidelines that year. The study was not an exact match for this issue, but it was close enough. Also 1 in 5 patients experienced adverse effects* so bad they had to stop taking Bactrim. They later learned to use lower doses and ease the patient on to it.
- Like nausea, vomiting, and anorexia
His Dr also noted why you can't simply claim 17,000 died
Of course in the absence of effective treatments for HIV disease, preventing PCP would have been a life extending rather than a life saving intervention.
And Wow, I never thought I would see Larry Kramer used as a source on GAW.
So Kramer became Fauci's lifelong friend and Fauci was invited to speak at his memorial service, so anyone using Kramer's words from the 1980s to attack Fauci is disingenuous.
Because these claims are bullshit
Ok show us something that shows this is true
Yeah that's from his Gmail account wasn't it? That was the stuff the Russians stole. But the Clinton emails were her official emails from her time at the State Department. Which the State Department released. I think I judge ordered them released
What target?
Assange pleaded guilty and was sentenced. He was sentenced to the same time he served in jail in the UK while fighting extradition. So he had already served his time and was set free. He probably can't enter the US or the UK, but he's a free man back in Australia now. Target is off his back.
He gave a speech in France in Oct so he can travel.
He did genuinely commit a crime. It wasn't like a newspaper getting an envelope of secrets and publishing them. He actively helped Manning stealing documents.
This was said to be among the worst things
Prosecutors also added a charge related to the disclosure of national defense information that included the unredacted names of human sources in places such as China, Syria, Afghanistan and elsewhere.
This would have led to people working against Communist China to be killed.
There were definitely concerns that in the Vault 7 case he also stepped over the line. Some people thought he would get indicted for this.
The Hacker in the Vault 7 case got 40 years
But you're right Pompeo wanted him bad.
According to this Pompeo went ballistic about vault 7
It had nothing to do with money laundering. Zero.
It was developed by the states. The National Governors Association was the big driver.
Background
A report in 1983 came out saying American schools were mediocre and we we needed higher standards.
So states started writing standards.
Their own standards. But they weren't coordinated. So a 5th grader in Tennessee might be doing different work from a 5th grader in Texas.
And if you moved to a new state your kids might be behind or learning stuff they already learned. Lots of folks said we should standardize so kids are better prepare for college and for careers. It took decades but people finally started moving on this in the 2000s. The US had highest rate of higher educarion in the world. By 2007 we were 14th.
In 2008 a big report on benchmarks was released showing the US was 25th in the world in Math and 21st in Science. In 2009 a national.meeting occurred and they agreed to develop the Common Core.
In 2009, the National Governors Association and the Council of Chief State School Officers coordinated the Common Core State Standards Initiative among the states. They were assisted by Achieve, Inc., a nonprofit entity created by governors and business leaders in 1996. The governor and chief state school officer of every state except Alaska and Texas signed a memorandum agreeing to participate in this historic effort to establish rigorous, common academic standards across the states.
Definitely a 2019 tweet
Julian Assange doesn't have a collection of Clinton emails.
They were released by the State Department.
You can find them here https://foia.state.gov/Search/Results.aspx?collection=Clinton_Email
WikiLeaks just downloaded them from there and put their own UI on them.
Pearson did not develop it
You're right
Confused you with OP.
It's the European way of doing dates. They do day-month-year.
Americans do month-day-year
It didn't happen see my other comment
That may be, but Pearson did not develop Common Core and there was no $350 million contract. This Twitter post is false.
I happen to know a little bit about both of these industries because I have relatives who worked in them.
In the publishing industry blockbuster books are sold via an auction.
The Obamas signed a joint deal, both Obamas were agreeing to publish multiple books I believe. It was said the auction for just Barrack's presidential memoir started around 18 million dollars. He was making bank no matter who published his book. Michelle's book sold even more than his. She moved over a million hardcover copies in the first two weeks.
As for the Common Core, Pearson didn't develop that. This is a super easy fact to check. And there was no $350 million contract with the federal government for Pearson. Total fiction.
Textbook sales are made at the State level. Some of those states chose Pearson, but some chose McGraw-Hill or Houghton Mifflin or Cengage or any of the other text book publishers
Look at Colorado. This is a common core state
Look at all the different publishers who have approved material
I think you can enjoy Christmas and Nosferatu.
Good stats on murder in NYC start around 1960. That's 65 years of data.
Of those 65 years. 58 of have had more murders than NYC this year.
With 5 days left in 2024 murders have decreased over 25% since the recent pandemic peak.
New York is not a shit show.
New York has 8+ million people who live there and another million who commute or visit.
That's like a trillion human interactions every year. Pretty easy to cherry pick some of those to build your narrative.
New York doesn't even make this list of the 100 most dangerous cities in the US. Salt Lake City is more Dangerous than New York is.
New York City probably hasn't made that list since Giuliani's second term.
The murder rate for the entire US last year was 5.7 per 100,000 people.
This was higher that the murder rate in NYC which was just 5.0 per 100,000 people.
Looking this up, I don't think it can be RDX.
Found this
RDX was the main component used for the 2006 Mumbai train bombings and the Jaipur bombings in 2008. It also is believed to be the explosive used in the 2010 Moscow Metro bombings
