Sure feels like the world is in a strange, precarious place.
In some ways, we're so used to the frontal assault coming right at us by our own governments
that as it sort of dissipates, you're like, wait, where do they go?
What's going on?
You start to feel like behind some closed door somewhere is a problem that you're not seeing at the moment.
We're going to cover some of that.
And one of the big developments this week, and if you've been watching the high wire,
you know that, you know, my Mohawk background, my heritage that comes
down through my mother, if you saw the show with my family, the Big Tree, which is my name.
You know, in true fashion, the Mohawk warriors always, you know, honored those warriors that were
against them, their enemies, if you will, and long, you know, before Hiawatha came along and said
it wasn't a good idea. They used to tear their heart out and eat it just to show how much they
really, you know, reveled and believed in the power of their opponent and why it should be recognized.
So today, and I guess sort of the more modern version of that using television screens,
let me just present the heart of a man who is stepping down, stepping out of the fight,
who I have enjoyed very much standing across from and refuting every stupid thing he's ever said.
Yes, Tony Fauci is leaving us, and there's been some mixed reviews in the news.
Good riddance to Fauci in his calamitous costly career.
They go on.
Never in the history of the public health profession
has anyone been so richly rewarded
for doing so much harm to the public's health.
And when we look at this,
that's obviously one perspective
and a very powerful perspective.
But there are a lot of people waiting in the wings right now
that are saying, I don't care if you're going away.
It doesn't mean this is over,
and this is what that looked like in the news.
I'll say his legacy is presiding over
the greatest debacle in public health history.
Because his recommendations were implemented,
and those implementations of the lockdowns
and the school closures that he recommended,
along with his underling, Dr. Burks, failed.
They failed by the data to stop the spread of the infection.
They failed to stop the known vulnerable to die from dying,
and they inflicted enormous harms.
They spared the affluent and the elite
at the sacrifice of the poor minorities and our children.
But the worst part to me is the lie.
lie and that is don't we now know for a fact that NIH money taxpayer dollars went to fund
this Wuhan virology lab unless Dr. Fauci retirement or not decides to seek asylum
in some some remote obscure foreign country than Dr. Fauci retirement or not is going to be spending
a lot of time in front of a
congressional committee and committees.
We're going to ask him questions about gaining the function research, why he didn't push back on China's lives,
why he pushed back so hard on the possibility, which we know is now real, that the virus originated in a Chinese lab.
The only reason I'm not grilling Fauci is he never comes before my committees.
If he came before my committees, I would be asking him some tough questions because I've written him, you know,
I'm up to 43 oversight letters on this.
Okay? Yeah. So no, I'm, I'm, we need, we need to find out. His legacy, really, is the extraordinary distrust now in the public of our public health agencies. I mean, this is critical and very harmful to the future crises, but also to the institutions themselves that we need the trust as people.
The American people have many, many questions about how Dr. Fauci handle the pandemic.
I mean, obviously, that's one perspective. And one in some ways that I share, you know, let's just be clear here. Under the handling of the COVID pandemic under Dr. Fauci, in his own words, America got hit harder, had a higher death rate than anywhere else in the world. It's amazing. And I've said this before to me that we hold, that anyone is holding him on some sort of pedestal for his great work. It's an absolute failure, as was well stated, I think, by Dr. Scott.
Atlas there. But let's also look at the history for those of you that have, you know, that I
joined back when I made the film Vax, that have been dealing with vaccine injury, when you look
at this history of the health of our children, and one of the talking points I've been sharing for
years is back in the 1980s when we were only giving 10 vaccines, we had about a 12.4% chronic
illness rate amongst our children. That 12.4% dealt with basically neurological disorders and
autoimmune disease. So things that you're going to have the rest of.
your life. When that vaccine program increased to 54 vaccines, technically 72 different, well,
72 vaccines and 54 shots is really what it is for most kids in school. We watch this incredible
increase in, or decrease, if you will, in health, but from 12.8%, we went up to 54% chronic
illness in our children in that short period of time. That is the greatest decline in human
health ever recorded. And when I've been out there, and I'll talk about vaccines, people
come up to me and they say, Dell, I mean, how do you know it's the vaccines? How do you know
that that drop in health and the rise in autoimmune disease and neurological disorders isn't
being caused by the pesticides and the herbicides being sprayed all over like 90% of our crops
and Monsanto's Roundup and things like that? Or what about the fluoride in our water, Dell?
Or how about the fact that our meat is being injected with all sorts of hormones and all these
antibiotics in the meat and, you know, or the thing, the aluminum being atomized in our air.
And I say, well, hold on a second. Let's be clear. At an informed consent action network,
which is the nonprofit that makes this show possible, we are funding lawsuits and investigations
into everything you've just talked about. But let's, you know, whether it's vaccines or it's
those other things, it's still the same CDC, FDA, Health and Human Services, and the National Institutes
of health that have all been involved in all the studies that have approved all of those things
that are in your diet that are making you toxic, the things that you're drinking and eating and
breathing, these are the people in charge.
And nobody's been there longer than Tony Fauci.
So literally, if we're just going to look at the health of America's children and our society,
I was at, you know, a water park just two weeks ago with my family, and I'm telling you,
America needs a diet.
And I don't honestly think it's how much we're eating.
It's how crappy our food supply actually is when you see all of the chemicals and all the byproducts in our food.
We are being poisoned by people like Tony Fauci that have made all of this possible for their cronies inside of these giant industrial, agricultural, and food companies.
This is a lot of what our show is going to be about today.
So though he may be signing off and think he's walking off into the distance, there are a lot of us that have a lot of questions,
and we don't plan on letting him just walk away,
which is probably why the other side of the media
is jumping up to his defense,
none other than Rachel Maddow.
Having been the target of this kind of really specific,
really different attack,
do you have insight into what we ought to do
to protect public officials like yourself
and to try to be more rational about this stuff as a country?
You know, Rachel, I wish I did have a positive, constructive answer for you,
but I don't. I think you and I are talking about public health issues right now.
But what has spilled over and really in many respects impeded a proper response to a public health challenge
is something that we see that goes well beyond public health. It's a complete distortion of reality.
I mean, a world of where untruths have almost become normalized, how we can see something in front of it.
of our very eyes and deny it's happening.
I mean, like, talk about the pot calling the kettle black.
You can see things happening right before our eyes.
Yeah, like the fact that everyone that got two shots and two boosters is getting COVID,
even though you said that wouldn't happen.
We have children that are having myocarditis rates that are through the roof in the bearer system.
If you go inside of almost any ER or hospital in America,
and probably every other First World Nation that records it around the world,
our children are sick, they're ending up in the high,
ending up in the hospital and forget about all of the, you know, spontaneously combusted deaths,
you know, that are happening all over just died of sudden causes.
I mean, how many headlines like that are we going to watch?
We are talking about a totally destructive vaccine that is proving to be totally incapable of stopping
this virus at all, never did what you said it could do.
And now we're seeing the ramifications, which we have laid out on this show every single week.
Here, the Bears numbers under Tony Fauci's watch.
This is what we're seeing and are deciding.
talk about 30,000 reported deaths now to bears from the COVID vaccine alone in two in two years.
173,000 hospitalizations, 133,000 urgent care, 203,000 office visits because of injury from
vaccine, 9,000, almost 10,000 cases of potentially deadly antiphylaxis, Bell's palsy,
and the list goes on and on permanently disabled, 56,000 people.
And we know that this is unreported.
They say it themselves.
It's a passive reporting system, totally underreported.
at best is getting 10%.
If you go by Harvard Medical School's
study of VERS, it's
1% of the total amount
of injuries that are actually taking place.
So yeah, we have a real problem, and it's
amazing that they sit there saying
things happening right before your eyes
and you just see it differently. Boy, we are living
in two totally different worlds.
No doubt about it. But as
Tony Fauci runs off, and I'll admit,
I lost a bet on this with a very good friend of mine,
I thought that Tony Fauci
would think that he's the only guy
that will be able to defend himself
if there's a shift in the Congress
towards the people that you saw
in many of those Fox News pieces
saying, we're coming after him.
He is going to be perpetually on the stand
to answer to a lot of what went wrong
here in the United States of America
since it was all under his watch.
Well, you know, I thought
who better to defend himself
than the word salad master?
He certainly isn't going to leave this
in someone else's hands.
Well, Paul, I owe you a dollar.
I was wrong.
He's walking off in the sunset.
Now I'm trying to imagine why.
Probably because he's hoping
that as we start seeing this mounting rise in all-cause mortality, which we're reporting on,
you're now seeing mainstream talking about it all over the world, an unexplained rise in excess
death in every nation in the world out-competing the COVID deaths when we didn't have a vaccine.
How does that make any sense? And as these deaths mount and the heart attacks are mounting
and the sudden adult death syndrome is mounting, I suppose Tony Fauci wants to walk off in the sunset
so that Rochelle Walensky can stay around saying, hey, you know what?
I know you have questions about that, but I wasn't here when they approved it.
So we'd like to just look forward into making the CDC a better place.
Yes, mistakes were made without any detail, but we're fixing all that.
Do you see how that's happening?
And I think that they last week said maybe that's not going to work,
because I believe they need a new fall guy.
They're going to have to figure out how to distract you from Tony Fauci,
trying to run off into the hills and retire after having destroyed probably, you know,
knowingly murdered a half a million people by denying them hydroxychloroquine,
ivermectin, budescine, all of these things that are working and instead going with their
own things.
They need a new fall guy.
And I think this week we're starting to see exactly who that might be.
Have you seen these headlines?
Let's look at a few of them.
House panel.
Trump sought to pressure FDA on COVID vaccines and treatment from the Washington Post.
Oh, it was Trump pressuring it.
House panel details Trump pressure on FDA for discredited COVID treatment.
end vaccines. What? Panel Trump staffers pushed unproven COVID treatment at FDA. Unproven,
I'm sure they're talking about ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine and those things. And Trump White
House exerted pressure on FDA for COVID-19 emergency use authorizations, the EUA that approved this
vaccine that everyone was saying we needed and we're so excited to get out. House report finds.
The Trump administration also tried to pressure the FDA to authorize the first COVID-19 vaccines
ahead of the presidential election.
Han testified to the subcommittee in January
2022, he said that White House officials
said they would not sign off on an emergency use
authorization language that required a 60-day
safety follow-up for late-stage clinical trials.
Ultimately, the FDA went ahead of the 60-day follow-up
plan without an explicit blessing from the White House,
though the White House later cleared it.
Are you freaking kidding me?
Can you believe this?
I mean, look, I've always said it.
I thought Trump's warp speed was moronic.
It was from the very beginning.
but it wasn't like anyone was fighting him.
Tony Fauci, Deborah Burks,
everybody's saying, hang in there,
we're going to rush it through.
Head of the FDA, head of Health and Human Services.
We're doing everything we can to get it to you fast,
meaning we're skipping all the safety trials
that should have lasted.
Forget 60 days.
How about two freaking years for a DNA altering product
that has never been injected into human beings
in the history of mankind
and every attempt at a coronavirus vaccine
for the last 20 years
has been killing animals in the animal trials.
Now we rushed it a little bit too fast, but there's not just one player in there.
I'm sorry, Donald, I warned you this was coming.
I've told you to back off of celebrating this vaccine because it is the cement they're pouring around your feet.
When it starts killing people and they have to admit it,
when all the Democrats that lined us up and the Democrats that forced us to get this vaccine
to have our jobs, to go to school, to be able to walk down the freaking street,
when all of that proves to start killing us, guess who they're going to blame it on?
Well, you're not without blame President Trump, but I will say this, you certainly were not alone, and you had a lot of bad advice around you, as was clearly laid out in my interview with Senator Ron Johnson.
But while they try to clean up this mess and blame other people, let's not forget what lying sacks of you know what they are.
This is a great little report that came out that we didn't make, but I'm going to share it with you.
Tony Fauci in his own words.
Do you regret particularly the last one, the shutdown, the sweeping shutdown, that some said made things worse?
No, I don't, Neil.
And in fact, I think we need to make sure that your listeners understand I didn't shut down anything.
I recommended to the president that we shut the country down.
And the only way to do that is by draconian means of essentially shutting down the country.
We know that we can do that if we shut down.
Well, I think one of the things you really need to do,
to the extent that you can shut down temporarily,
the country I think is important.
Well, if I knew at the time that shutting down
would have such a dramatic effect on controlling the spread,
obviously we would have shut down earlier.
There were those who say,
you shut down you destructive things by disrupting the economy.
And others say, well, if you save so many infections by shutting down,
why didn't you shut down two weeks earlier?
But I don't regret saying that the only way we could have really stopped the explosion of infection
was by essentially, I want to say shutting down.
I mean, essentially having the physical separation and the kinds of recommendations that we've made.
You've been a big fan of Cuomo in the shutdown in New York.
You've lauded New York for their policy.
New York had the highest death rate in the world.
How can we possibly be jumping up and down and saying,
oh, Governor Cuomo did a great job?
He had the worst death right in the world.
No, you misconstrued that, Senator.
Look, I know Tony Fauci first got his job at NIAID back when the Pony Express was delivering the news,
but it is clear he has forgotten that there's this new invention called cameras that have been
recording everything he's had to say. And to those people in those articles blaming Donald Trump
for products that don't work like hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin, which we've shown you the
thousands of trials all around the world showing their success, let me just point out that the
article and headline everyone should pay attention to is that thing that was recommended by Fauci
and used by Biden and their families. Pax Lovid, this is the headline Pax Lovit. COVID pills
have no benefit for adults 40 to 65 study shows. No benefits. So for all of you rebound,
and yes, unfortunately, I have to announce that the First Lady has rebounded this week,
just like her husband did.
First Lady Jill Biden test positive COVID-19 in rebound case.
We all watched it happen just a few short weeks ago with President Biden.
Look, it's all right.
These people are trying the products that they believe in.
They don't work.
It's a free country.
But we're really pissed off that you denied us the products that we're working with every single friend of ours
that we recommended it to that could get their hands on it.
No rebound in, my friends.
No rebound in any of Senator Ron Johnson's friends, as he talked about.
When we were prescribing and getting our friends to go out and get Budesinide and Ivermectin
and all the protocols we've talked about here, they did really, really freaking well.
So, yes, it may be anecdotal, but in a free country where you're trying your stupid product that doesn't work,
we should be allowed to try what we want.
