Rand Paul Slams ‘Fatal Conceit’ of Dr. Anthony Fauci for Refusing to Support School Re-Openings

Big League Politics-

“It is a fatal conceit to believe any one person or small group of people has the knowledge necessary to direct an economy or dictate public health behavior. I think government experts need to show caution in their prognostications,” Paul said at the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee hearing, which featured so-called coronavirus experts from the Trump administration.

“It’s important to realize that if society meekly submits to an expert and that expert is wrong, a great deal of harm may occur when we allow one man’s policy or one group of small men and women to be foisted on an entire nation,” Paul added.

Paul pointed to the facts of what has happened in countries that have opened up their schools and how it did not cause massive outbreaks of COVID-19.

“Take for example government experts who continue to call for schools and day care to stay closed or that recommend restrictions that make it impossible for a school to function. There are examples from all across the United States and around the world that show that young children rarely spread the virus,” he stated, referencing countries such as Denmark, France and Germany that have re-opened.

“No spike when schools are opened. Central planners have enough knowledge somehow to tell a nation of some 330 million people what they can and can’t do,” Paul said.

  1. Rand Paul (& his old man) makes a lot of sense most all of the time

    … although I don’t always agree w/ him (or his old man), he always presents a clear argument & holds his position … one of the few admirable politicians

    Fauci is a political opportunist that puts his nose to the wind & follows the scent of the largest pile of money … reprehensible actually

  2. Brad, it boggles the mind why Trump continues letting him talk. I think it’s past time to remove Pence and his task force and put real doctors in charge, and not a quack like Fauci who hasn’t treated a patient in decades.

    Trump has to fight back or the bastards are going to steal the damn election.

  3. Tony “The Worm” Fauci is the self-appointed Don of the Medical Mafia.
    He’s obsessed with Hilary Clinton in much the same way John Hinckley was obsessed with Jody Foster…and equally as scary.

  4. Fau has yet to be right about any model he’s used. Remember this was supposed to be well over 500k deaths by now and getting worse. Now it seems like he’s trying to protect whatever authority he ever had by pushing doom abs gloom again. Of course, his prognostications will be dead wrong now as well. Yet somehow, it’ll run off him like water off a duck’s ass and he’ll get a free pass.

  5. There isn’t going to be any public school this fall.
    High school students will be mobilized to disrupt and shut down their own schools. White teachers and institutional racism will be the reason.

  6. Fauci is a known and self admitted liar.

    Falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus, lie in one thing lie in all things.

    Why do we put people like this -outright liars that deliberately lie to achieve their intentions- in such esteemed and influential positions and let them rule over us?
