Leave this man alone!

The good news is that this means that the Supreme Court will end up hearing the case and rule in favor of Trump, essentially invalidating presidential pardons. So, we’ve got that going for us…

What is there rationale? Originally they were mad he was encouraging mask, etc.

strangelynow.bsky.social•17 days ago

Surely they have better things to do( or are they just providing distraction for Trump).

Their fealty to pleasing their master, passion for endless drama, partisan antics and ignoring what true legislation is all about are why we no longer have a constitutional republic. It has been stripped away in unprecedented ways and in record time!

It’s another distraction

Studies showing the virus was modified through GOF to be optimally contagious for humans

False there’s ample proof that faucis research and funding led to the pandemic. The consensus amongst intelligence agencies (fbi, cia, NSA etc) and much of the scientific community was that the pandemics origins were from a lab leak at Wuhan. Fauci funded this exact GOF research at this lab…

Fauci is an American hero.

jd111.bsky.social•17 days ago

You’re joking right? That’s the same guy who funded the gof research at the Wuhan lab which the intelligence community has concluded the origins of the virus which killed 20M came from.

dadjah.bsky.social•17 days ago

Yeah. He did. But he didn’t know they were going to fuck up, did he?

jd111.bsky.social•17 days ago

😂😂😂 the risks of this research is a literal pandemic. Which is why Obama stopped it. Fauci knew these risks and did it anyway in all of places China, at the same facility where there were already multiple pathogen leaks. He then covered up his involvement and the pandemics origins

rileyp2013.bsky.social•17 days ago

If only we’d kept staff in China to learn of the problem at Wuhan. But Trump eliminated them.

jd111.bsky.social•17 days ago

Fauci knew about the potential for lab leaks especially with the protocols of this facility and he funded the worlds riskiest research there anyway. There’s a reason OBAMA put a moratorium on this research directly opposing faucis desires. He farmed the research off to China to skirt these regs

dadjah.bsky.social•17 days ago

Correct!

jd111.bsky.social•17 days ago

Are you insane? Why would we be funding this research in the first place?

dadjah.bsky.social•17 days ago

Quite sane. Collaboration on potential worldwide threats is common between research institutes. In fact it is normal practice. Suggest you go back and look at different versions of events.

galbrg2.bsky.social•17 days ago

They’re evil SOB’s without an ounce of integrity between them! Get rid of all of them!🤬🤬🤬

patsplatbrat.bsky.social•17 days ago

Rand Paul is just mad as hell that Fauci made him look like a dipshit in the hearings. That’s what is going on here. These guys are just mad they got caught on camera being stupid. Because they are stupid.
