and second and maybe more significantly long term, has got to rescue science from the ideologues who all of a sudden have taken it over. science must be objective. science must be honest. otherwise, everything falls apart. with that in mind, this story. in april last year, researchers at the cdc concluded a month-long study of thousands of health care workers. they included first responders, nurses, physicians buried the point of the study was to assess whether the covid vaccine was working. researchers with the health care workers into two groups, vaccinated and then unvaccinated, and then they watched buried what they found was so significant that the head of the cdc, rochelle walensky, went directly to msnbc to tell the world what researchers have found. and as what she said, this is word for word. our data from the cdc today suggests that vaccinated people do not carry the virus. don t get sick. that s not just in clinical trials, but also in real-world data. now, that
at this time he s probably not buying any long-term and civil bonds. if you are his investment visor you were telling today trey. yet tony fauci is still working. in fact is on the longest serving employees in the entire federal government, almost certainly the highest paid. why is that? is tony fauci is that good. the term national treasure comes to mind. decent people understand that. drive through any neighborhood with high concentrations of college educated professionals with desperately unhappy personal lives and you will see the yard sign shines erected in his honor. thank you, dr. fauci, they read, tapped with a perky little axle mission point at the dash with a heart at the bottom, thank you for being you and you can often understand the gratitude. as the men who got us through the pandemic. as the coronavirus wafted from a chinese military biolab in wuhan and settled over the united states, tony fauci was the man americans looked to for guidance. he was are sherpa, a
not a science guy blaming a pickup truck for extreme weather. these are not people who are speaking in good faith, they re not trying to solve problems, they are not even interested in what actually happened. they are lying, they are unscrew bills, and they will say anything if they think it will make them more powerful so best to ignore them. on the other hand, and this is also true, over time it is possible to draw legitimate connections between decisions that politicians make in the catastrophes that follow. the rising gas prices for example, the rising gas in america now qualifies as a catastrophe. it s true no matter how you feel about carbon emissions, you still assume you were afford to be able to drive to work or take a vacation with your kids the summer or buy my dinner in a restaurant once in a while. but now you can t, and gas prices are the reason you can t. nothing makes the country poor faster than rising energy prices. so how did this happen? well, we are going
he was 18 years old, he worked part-time at the drive-through at a local wendy s, yet police said he had at least $4,000 of brand-new weapons, including two ar-15 rifles, 1600 rounds of .556 ammunition, a ballistic vest, and 60 magazines. one of his rivals was a high-end model manufactured by a company called daniel defense. according to a receipt that he posted in private message, that gun cost $2,000 and he paid in full. he could have bought effectively the very same rifle at any one store for a third of the cost. but apparently to him, price was no object. that s pretty weird. if police know where he got the money to buy one of the most expensive ar-15s on the market, they are not telling us. nor for that matter have they explained why they lied about the most basic facts of the shooting. for the first 24 hours they told us that a school resource officer fired at the government. he engaged. but they must ve known at the time they said it that that was not true. they must
them knew that. both killers had told other people they planned to commit a mass shooting, and then they did. so what can we learn from this? the first and most obvious answer is that the system in place didn t work. his teacher sent them to a mental hospital for evaluation, they knew he was a threat. they tried their best, he committed a massacre anyway. so we know for a fact that what we are doing isn t working, but we should also be honest enough to acknowledge that it s very hard to know what to do instead. despite we may have heard, the problem isn t that we don t care enough. there s not a person in this country who is not horrified by the sight of murdered children, it s the worst thing, and everybody thinks that. the problem is that the human mind is much more complex and harder to control than we like to admit. a person who is intent on committing violence is very hard to stop under any circumstances. an act of congress isn t going to do it. neither will gun control.
