Senator Rand Paul Questions Dr. Fauci, Drops a Bomb in Senate Hearing

By Stacey Lennox May 12, 2020 4:06 PM EST

Senator Rand Paul had the best five minutes in the first two hours of the hearing in the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee today. It is clear he has been abiding by shelter-in-place orders because his hair and beard look dangerously close to qualifying him to join the cast of Duck Dynasty. However, his questions could not have been more on point.

The doctor in Rand Paul took over for the questioning. He began by challenging Dr. Fauci on the media narrative that there is no evidence that patients who survive coronavirus have immunity. To be helpful Paul pointed out the following:

In experiments, rhesus monkeys infected with COVID-19 can’t be reinfected

Studies have shown plasma from recovered COVID-19 patients neutralizes the virus in lab experiments

The entire premise of convalescent plasma treatment, mentioned by several on the panel as a potential treatment currently in trials, is that recovered patients develop immunity capable of killing the virus

Recovering patients across the board are showing significant antibody response

We know SARS and MERS, coronaviruses with similar clinical presentations, confer immunity for at least 2-3 years

Paul then stated that his view is that the truth is the exact opposite of the media narrative. There is very good evidence that recovered patients will have some durable immunity. And recovered workers, in industries like meatpacking, should be reassured there is a strong likelihood they will not get reinfected. He then referenced that Dr. Fauci had said publicly that he would bet it all that survivors of COVID-19 have some form of immunity and asked him to set the record straight...

Thank you Senator Paul.  That is what leadership looks like.

That's right. And he's dang well right. And I didn't appreciate Fauci's rebuttal going unanswered. His counter dwelled upon the children within the 'approaching zero' number to buttress his authority, and was in reality a non-rebuttal.

It really is amazing that this one man has taken the entire nation for a ride.   I think its only fear mongering that is keeping this crap going.  We need to get back to work.  The only shut down we need now is the government money spigot.

We have all been taken captive.  Its a huge experiment to see how easily the government can control the population.   (opinion)

That's right. And I am HAPPY to see Rand Paul, a Conservative, leading the way out. Speaking truth. Finally.

I know I will really take a hit for this, but just reading that made me yearn for real leadership.  Instead its the daily clown show.  Whether its still going on and on about what people have done to him.  Or like today just blurting out a conspiracy theory because he hasn't had his daily fix yet.  It wouldn't be a good day for him unless he could bear false witness against someone.

That's right in the main. Drama, drama drama. I am sick of it too. Folks used to have a compass to cut a way through it... No more.

The reason that Democrats soak in Dr. Fauci's doom and glooms scenario's is because they have an agenda.  The agenda is Socialism and total control of the population.  And our government has gone along from the beginning.  The first 2.2 million.  Republicans couldn't wait to vote for it.  Trump couldn't wait to sign it.  Some people said there was no way they could have read the entire thing.  BS.  A few Senators and the President to comb through it before approving it.  Too much to ask for.

Well it is a deadly virus.  I can't deny that but our government has let us down.  No leadership to wade through the falsities and the truths to come to common sense policy.  So sad.

They're ALL in bed with it... To his credit, Tumoy started out with the truth in it. He cried bullcrap right off the bat. But then he folded like a Walmart lawn chair.

And yeah. It is sad as hell.

Yeah there were a couple that put up protest, but quickly fell in line.  Odd men outs in the cesspool.

Republican party is making huge mistake.  I think we could lose it all.

Likely and deserved.

Throw all the bastards out on all sides and let the chips fall where they may. I will be voting against incumbency all the way down to dogcatcher over this covid mess.

Special Election Results:

Tonight we kept a Congressional seat in Wisconsin, a state senate seat in California and we are on our way to flipping the Congressional seat in California's 25th District.  Mike Garcia is winning 55.9 to 44.1.  The race won't be called until tomorrow afternoon local time.  Garcia's winning both mail-in votes and polling votes in both LA and Ventura counties.  This could be too tough a lead for even democrats to steal.

As a Breitbart headline blared it's a :  "RED SHOCKWAVE"!      (The wave was predicted to be blue  )

We're in good shape.

Fauci has to keep this thing going as long as possible because COVID-19 has become his livelihood. It is his meal ticket.
The very last thing Fauci wants is for Coronavirus to normalize and fade away.
The last thing he wants is for things to return to normal. Normal means he loses the spotlight and becomes nobody again.
He doesn't want that. And he will continue to push these false Chicken Little scenarios until the very last minute.
Not because he believes what he is saying. Simply because he LOVES the power he suddenly has.

Actually,  Dr. Fauci isn't the only one with the doom and gloom predictions.  Hardly a day goes by that the media doesn't report some new story of some doctor or group saying something like, there will be a new wave of the virus that will be worse than the first or the virus will mutate into something more deadly or...?   I don't generally believe in conspiracies, but there seems to be this concerted effort to keep everyone in a perpetual state of fear, hiding in their homes and refusing to go out.  Who or what is behind it, I don't know.  But this has to end.
