1. “Attacks on me, quite frankly, are attacks on science,” Anthony Fauci said, blasting his critics during a 2021 interview about his advice on the pandemic.

So the NY Times confronted Fauci w/ an unimpeachable source: Anthony Fauci.

He still dissembled.

2. FAUCI VS. FAUCI

Fauci has long stated he has an "open mind" about the pandemic's beginning, but the New York Times pointed out that Fauci dismissed a Wuhan lab accident as a "conspiracy theory" on a podcast in early 2020. nytimes.com/2023/03/28/opi…
3. If this sounds familiar to readers of @DisInfoChron, that’s because I uncovered this podcast and reported on it back in December.

Nonetheless, it’s great to see the New York Times catching up.
4. The Times also caught Fauci helping to orchestrate a March 2020 study published in Nature Medicine that downplayed the possibility of a lab accident. After helping orchestrate this paper, Fauci then promoted it during a White House press conference.
5. If this sounds familiar to readers of @DisInfoChron , that’s because I reported on Fauci’s orchestration of the paper and promotion at a White House press conference also back in December. disinformationchronicle.substack.com/p/will-the-bid…

Nonetheless, it’s great to see the New York Times catching up.
6. Fauci tells the Times that "he’s not sure he ever got around to reading the paper" in Nature Medicine.

Here's Fauci in an email to the paper's author: "Nice job on the paper." disinformationchronicle.substack.com/p/the-new-york…
7. Fauci has misremembered what Fauci has said on so many pandemic topics, that @TexasLindsay_ put a video together to help Fauci reremember.

1) I got a "missing context" fact check by @meta's Italian fact checker who said I shared a video that other people got wrong.

First, why are Italians involved in US free speech?

Second, what do other people's actions have to do with me?
substack-proxy.glitch.me/articles/disin…
2) A Kamala Harris video circulated with her calling free speech a "privilege." So I posted this on @Meta

“The Democrat who wants to run the country argues free speech is a ‘privilege.’”

See the "missing context"? Image
3) First, the fact check is in Italian.

QUESTION: Why are Italians involving themselves in US speech protected by the First Amendment? Image

1) Twitter Files: Democrats & media claimed Twitter 1.0 was a “private company” that made its own decisions, despite Biden Administration pressure to censor.

But new emails show Twitter hired a lobby shop staffed w/ Biden loyalists & then coordinated w/ Biden State Dept. Image
2) “This is John Hughes from Albright Stonebridge Group, the commercial diplomacy firm founded by former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright,” wrote Twitter’s lobbyist to a senior official at State.

Twitter was seeking “advice” and help. Image
3) Politico reported around this same time that 10 of Biden’s top foreign policy crowd came from Albright Stonebridge.

1) Emails show that social media influencer Zeynep Tufekci pressured @cochranecollab to put out a statement attacking their own review;

Twisted words of a Cochrane editor;

And misstates her academic bona fides.

Image
2) Cochrane's Karla Soares-Weiser put out a statement attacking Cochrane's own mask review due to pressure from Zeynep Tufekci:

“Lisa, I have been back and forth with NYT about the mask review. CAN I GET YOUR VIEWS ON THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS?” Image
3) Several days later, Tufekci published a "masks work" essay in the NY Times and Karla Soares-Weiser rushed out a statement claiming problems with the mask review.

Soares-Weiser did this w/o consulting the scientists who wrote the mask review.

1) Going through hundreds of emails, it's clear @zeynep bullied Cochrane into publishing a statement against their own review and twisted the words of Cochrane editor Michael Brown.

She pretends to be an academic, but is she?

unherd.com/2024/08/how-th…
2) After Cochrane published their 2023 mask review update, Bret Stephens wrote a NYT column ridiculing mask mandate activists--people like Zeynep Tufekci.

3 days later on Feb 24, Zeynep contacted Cochrane, but not the scientists. She went around them to the editors. Image
3) Zeynep introdued herself to Cochrane editor Michael Brown as an "academic" working on a review "in my own field."

Zeynep has published 0 in the academic literature this year, and one article in 2023--an opinion piece. As for that review, it has never appeared. Image
