Can't remember the thread. DR or Siev will know.
This stems from a debate in Congress 2 days ago, with Rand Paul attempting to discredit Dr Fauci and almost trying to say he was responsible for creating the pandemic.

Then of course we wonder what Saint Obama knew.
It certainly doesn't smell good.
it's Gain-of-Function.
You're not really encouraging anyone to dispassionately study the exchange between Paul and Fauci. Your posts in this thread contain the seeds of yet another of your defences of Trump's handling of the virus crisis when he was President. Confirmation that that's where you're heading with this thread is conformed by your vague and, frankly, confusing aspersion towards "Saint Obama" and what he knew.

Your wish is my command
DR was replying to Said on the thread below:

Rolling with that: I ask you if you rate yourself as being any good at being a conspiracy analyst?
Do you think the quality of your output compares favourably, for example, with this?

I don't think that anyone would accuse DR of being a conspiracy theorist, or me for that matter, but as I said at the time, this article does give you food for thought.The source is credible, founded in 1945 by former Manhattan Project scientists.

That, and the conflict of interest of the two virologists who vigorously denied that the virus could have escaped, couldn't help but give me pause for thought. Coupled with the way the virus evolved to be able to infect humans, it's conceivable that it didn't evolve naturally. Food for thought!
Rand Paul is a histrionic bit player on the political stage. I believe we should keep politics out of this and listen to members of the scientific and medical community.... preferably those who have no affiliation with any government, anywhere.

Why bother with someone's twitter feed, when the debate is available, I would imagine that most are aware who Dr Fauci is, but let's introduce Rand Paul, an opportunist scum bag, Trumpist, at one time covid denier, anti vaccine, anti lockdown, anti covid support package, all he has done is to take known facts, represent the narrative in support of his own allegations, note proof or evidence not required.
Certainly I like many others would like to know the origins of this virus, but wild accusatory allegations against an individual are hardly likely to produce real results.

Putting to one side that Rand Paul is an appalling human being, while Dr. Fauci probably holds the unofficial title of 'Coolest Grandad in the World', there's a lot going in their exchange.
Here's a CNN video of their spat, with CNN providing their typical idea of a neutral and accurate video title:

Absolutely not, I give little credit to Trumps virus handling there was certainly more wrong than right.
I simply make the point that the divisive one pointed out the "chaina link" to the world, if he had followed it through at the time China might not have been able to clear up its tracks so well.
The "Saint Obama" link is clear as he was in charge at the time this was going on, has remained remarkably quiet and not come forward to detail the link under his watch with the Wuhan Lab.
It appears the orange mist is descending on yet another thread even one where the source of the biggest threat to us all in a generation is possibly a Chinese Lab that received US funding to research the very thing that has killed millions.

Politicians should support independent scientific search for the evidence and only then prove their moral salt by protecting the lives of scientists and reporters in publishing the findings.

That’s the link I managed to make a mess of, thank you.

You defended his virus handling on thread after thread at virtually every turn!
For but one long example of that, have you really already forgotten this thread?
Trump latest madness

As SF puts it in an earlier post: "Trump's comments were merely repeating the latest conspiracy theory or opinion piece, probably as distraction from his own abject handling of the pandemic..."
Trump is like Said in that he's attracted to and is an exponent of pumping out conspiracy theories. One day, the law of averages would suggest that Said will finally get lucky with one of their claims. It seems Trump may have hit pay dirt with one of his, as there does seem to be a possible or perhaps probable degree of substance to what he claimed. Already he's been proven correct in questioning the Chinese Government's account of the virus origin (and by implication, I suppose, the scientific community's (inclusive of the WHO) broad and biased acceptance of that Chinese Government account.)

Which year or years are you referring to, there?

I agree with you that TDS, Trump Derangement Syndrome, is a thing but I'd also point out that TVS, Trump Veneration Syndrome, also exists in abundance...

As to Trump repeating the "Chaina Virus" claims, he is one of the few who actually saw the US intelligence to support his claim.
He was wrong to blurt it out in his inimitable style but removing the dislike of him from the equation he at least saw that intelligence and Fauci squirming like a stuck pig is at the least a pointer to what MAY have happened.
This ain't over.

Alternatively, the orange fever dream rises again...
