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.

More on FAUCI VS.… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
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) @latimes Michael Hiltzik has a long history of unethical journalism: spying on his reporter colleagues & creating sock puppet accounts.

I'm releasing recording by 2 women Hiltzik interviewed who were harmed by vaccines and Hiltzik then smeared as anti-vax. Image
2) LA Times editors caught Hiltzik in "sting operation" in 1993 spying on his own LA Times colleagues. The paper then ordered him back from Moscow. disinformationchronicle.substack.com/p/new-recordin…Image
3) Hiltzik graced the pages of the NY Times 13 years later when LA Times editors caught him making up shit and creating fake accounts.

"[Y]ou really expect your staff to maintain their integrity,” an editor for a North Carolina paper. Image

1) Trump administration has pivoted to investigate the much ballyhooed "Proximal Origin" paper by @scrippsresearch Kristian Andersen.

Read DOJ's letter to @NatureMedicine. Trump officials believe the paper was a quid pro quo for a Fauci grant. tinyurl.com/ykr7vxpvImage
2) Suspicions have long dogged this study, as emails have found the authors ran it past funders Tony Fauci and Francis Collins at the NIH, as well as @JeremyFarrar when he was at the Wellcome Trust.

In one email, Kristian Andersen praised them for "advice and leadership." Image
3) When Nature Medicine published the paper, editor in chief Joaa Monteiro claimed the paper “put conspiracy theories” about the pandemic’s possible lab origin to rest.

Is labelling an alternative hypothesis a "conspiracy theory" normal in science? Image

1) @ScienceMagazine interviewed @NIHDirector_Jay and then pretended he lied to them in the interview, kicking of a storm on #Bluesky.

I'm releasing the entire interview and a transcript.

The behavior is appalling, not the first time Science has been caught in unethical acts. Image
2) @AshleyRindsberg released a story for @tabletmag w/ emails catching @sciencemagazine Jon Cohen in salacious behavior. tinyurl.com/yrtjp5dwImage
3) In this case, Science Magazine claimed in two stories that Bhattacharya dismissed a Nature article "that NIH planned to suspend subawards for foreign collaborators"

This is false, and not what Nature reported. Image

1) Guest essay by NIH Infectious Disease Researcher names former boss Tony Fauci for misleading the nation; calls for end to dangerous gain-of-function virus studies that likely caused #COVID pandemic.

"For too many years, scientists have sold the public on a lie." Image
2) Fauci promoted paper by @scrippsresearch's Kristian Andersen to downplay lab accident. This paper was fake b/c it did not examine a common lab process called "serial passaging".

Fauci promoted this paper to the public, right under Trump's nose tinyurl.com/4wwbj69mImage
3) Andersend and authors of “Proximal Origin” paper ignored serial passaging, so they didn’t “disprove” a lab origin for COVID.

I have no idea how ignoring something so obvious could make it pass peer review and get published in a prestigious journal like @NatureMedicine.

1) Dr. Gretchen Lefever Watson & other scientists applaud @RobertKennedyJr for acting on the need to research links between antidepressants and teen violence.

Calls out @SenTinaSmith for spreading false information about these drug's benefits that aligns w/ industry marketing. Image
2) Lefever's research into the overprescription and harms of these drugs to teens was shut down by Big Pharma.

So why is @SenTinaSmith promoting Big Pharma propaganda? @GrageDustin @LauraDelano @DrJaclynnMoskow
tinyurl.com/42fmn8puImage
3) For almost two decades, researchers have called for further research into the links between violence and psychotropic drugs (antidepressants, stimulants, antipsychotics and mood stabilizers). Image

1) People still don't fully grasp how much the expert class lied to us during #COVID_19.

Science historian David Robertson details how the WHO and esteemed professors redefined "herd immunity" to push lockdowns and vaccine mandates. Image
2) Early in the pandemic, Channel 4 hosted epidemiologist and UK advisor John Edmunds to explain the importance of herd immunity.

Facing off against him: marketing exec and social media influencer @ThomasPueyo. This was a 1st sign of the coming insanity. tinyurl.com/mt3d22fxImage
3) Experts redefined herd immunity to mean "immunity only from vaccines." Below is the actual definition

The proportion of immunes in a population, above which the incidence of the infection decreases.

- Porta, A Dictionary of Epidemiology (Oxford University Press, 2008) p.115
