Fauci’s COVID-19 pipe dream harms kids

So Anthony Fauci wants to see less than 10,000 cases in the U.S. in order to call it a day on COVID-19. Let's see: If you tested all 330 million U.S. citizens and had a false positive test rate of 10%, that would be 33 million. The only way you will get to less than 10,000 is if you come close to a zero test rate. Fauci is clearly one of the most scientifically incompetent psychopaths ever to occupy his position. He has been failing upward in the NIH bureaucracy for over 40 years. The only thing he is good at is obtaining power, and apparently money, too.

True justice has nothing to do with race

Racial justice is just racism ("Critical race theory undermines religious faith," Web, Nov. 15). There is no special category of justice based on one's skin color. No matter how good the "intention" might be, racial justice is just code for reverse discrimination based on race. It is similar in that regard to "social" justice, which is just code for socialism, or using guilt to promote outcomes based on one's social status instead of merit. The focus is on "equity," not on equality. Equality is the proper term and it has nothing to do with one's race or social status.

Government owes us protection

We have a larger problem of lawlessness than we think. No better example can be found than the rap concert in Houston where nine people lost their lives ("Texas A&M student hurt at Astroworld dies; death total at 9," Web, Nov. 9). The mass media have not been able to even fathom the idea that there might be public responsibility for citizen safety at such events.

What’s the secret ingredient?

Recently we found out that the COVID-19 vaccine manufactures are allowed to exclude "trade secrets" from the lists of ingredients they put on their packages. Samples allegedly analyzed from vaccine vials were said to contain graphene oxide, an extremely toxic compound. Let us not forget that for years vaccine makers were putting mercury in our incoulations with impunity.

Head Start penalizes stay-home parents

Part of the trouble of Head Start, aside from the defective outcomes it produces, is its pollicization, i.e., making grantee management paid foot soldiers of congressional elections and candidates ("Biden's $390B universal preschool plan based on troubled Head Start program," Web, Nov. 15). That tie could be cut by giving preschool vouchers to parents directly, empowering them to be involved in the education of their children and disarming the grantee community of routine continuity of funding.

Where are GOP backbones?

There isn't a single backbone among Republican members of the House or Senate. The Jan. 6 protesters have been denied representation. They have little or no access to health care and remain locked up in filthy cells -- yet they have not been charged with a crime. Not one Republican has demanded these people's civil rights be restored. In contrast, Black Lives Matter protesters rioted, looted, burned and destroyed cities. They were sent before a judge and immediately released. Why are the Republicans hiding?

No right to kill indiscriminately

Unless I read it wrong back in in the seventh grade in 1963 when we studied the subject, the U.S. Constitution only affords an American citizen or visitor the right to kill if the killing is done in self-defense.

Critical race theory won’t help students

Based on "Report sparks debate over bans on critical race theory" (Web, Nov. 9) it appears the supporters of CRT are going to continue knocking on the door of our public education system. It appears their approach is to keep repackaging CRT in order to hide its true intention, which is to undermine and shift the emphasis from academics to socialism.

Don’t stand idly by

Kudos to the Washington Times for writing and presenting a thoughtful and reasoned editorial ("Taiwan's fair-weather friend," Web, Nov. 9).

Infrastructure work moves like molasses

Not one of the projects supposedly slated for completion in Biden's infrastructure package will happen for 8 to 10 years, at best. The average highway or bridge project takes 12 years to get through the approval system and most of the delay is due to activists taking every project to court.

You think inflation’s bad now?

If the current spending bill goes through and the Democrats succeed in dumping more than $2 trillion into the U.S. system (literally printed in cash from America's printing presses), the reduction in the value of every other dollar already out there will be exponentially reduced, causing further inflation.

OSHA has nothing to do with vaccines

The Biden administration is using the Occupational Safety and Health Act to implement its vaccine mandate, which affects all companies employ over 100 people. This implementation is a complete transmutation of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, which is intended to remove or avoid physical hazards in the workplace, such as unsafe steps or rails. It has nothing to do with vaccines.

Rittenhouse acted in self-defense

Kyle Rittenhouse's prosecuting attorney, Thomas Binger, does not deserve a license to practice law. When someone is pointing a gun right in your face, since when do you have to wait until they pull the trigger before you can defend yourself ("Rittenhouse testifies that the first man he shot threatened to kill him," Web, Nov. 9)? Rittenhouse was merely exercising a constitutional right, granted by the Second Amendment. If he had not killed those two violent gang members who were trying to kill him, he would not be here to defend himself in a court of law. Next case.

Effective medications exist

Yale epidemiologist Harvey Risch has said that 80% to 85% of U.S. COVID-19 deaths could have been prevented by giving outpatients early treatment with available medications. COVID-19 deaths so far have been estimated at 750,000. Eighty-five percent of that comes to 637,500, which is approximately the traditional estimate of military fatalities during the Civil War, counting both sides.

Pollutants must go somewhere

As individual consumers, far too many of us still recklessly behave as though throwing non-biodegradable garbage down a dark chute and spewing emissions from sky-high jet engines and very tall smoke stacks means pollutants somehow get safely absorbed into the environment. We seem to think we're inconsequentially dispensing of that waste into a black-hole singularity, where it gets compressed into nothing.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Natural immunity not a vaccine

U.S. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy has joined the chorus of those seeking to justify the Biden administration's vaccine mandate by reminding us that George Washington once mandated smallpox inoculation for the Continental Army. Murtha recently invoked Washington's memory on ABC's "This Week" saying: "Throughout our history, we have seen that we have used vaccine requirements to protect the population. It started back with George Washington, in fact, when he required troops be inoculated for smallpox."

Water, vapor dictate temperature

I enjoyed Ronald Kessler's "Biden's climate fraud" (Web, Nov. 9), but there's an elephant in the room worth mentioning. Carbon dioxide particles are present in Earth's atmosphere at the rate of 419 per million, or .04 percent. But what other particles are present in the atmosphere, in those 999,581 particles per million? In checking, I learned that those particles are water or water vapor at 99.96% of Earth's atmosphere. It is they -- and not the carbon dioxide particles -- that actually control the planet's temperature. I also learned that humankind only contributes a small portion of those 419 parts per million of carbon dioxide.

Rodgers didn’t lie

Green Bay Packers' quarterback Aaron Rodgers tested positive for COVID-19 and, like comedian Joe Rogan, acted quickly to take (gasp!) ivermectin, which detractors call a "horse dewormer" unfit for humans. Baloney! The Food and Drug Administration has approved it for human use. This amazing drug has saved hundreds of thousands of lives worldwide, a fact that escapes our biased media.

California another Biden ‘success’ story

California's COVID-19 cases are soaring -- yet the state has strict mask requirements and high vaccination rates. So how is this possible.

Don’t discount Trump support among GOP

Too many clueless Republicans are trying to take Donald Trump's voters away from Republican candidates. Yet Trump is still very popular for two reasons.
