Another week, another month and once again, the Italian gerbil pops his head up from his underground hole to forecast what Americans have come to expect and sadly, relish…more pain and suffering:
Fauci warns of more ‘pain and suffering’ ahead as Covid-19 cases climb – via msn.com
ASSOCIATED PRESSDr. Anthony Fauci warned Sunday that more “pain and suffering” is on the horizon as COVID-19 cases climb again and officials plead with unvaccinated Americans to get their shots.
Fauci, the nation’s top infectious disease expert, also said he doesn’t foresee additional lockdowns in the U.S. because he believes enough people are vaccinated to avoid a recurrence of last winter. However, he said not enough are inoculated to “crush the outbreak” at this point.
Fauci’s warning comes days after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention changed course to recommend that even vaccinated people return to wearing masks indoors in parts of the U.S. where the delta variant is fueling infection surges. With the switch, federal health officials have cited studies showing vaccinated people can spread the virus to others.
Oh, okay. So, ‘officials’ plead with unvaccinated Americans to get their shots, while ‘officials’ have cited studies showing vaccinated people can spread the virus to others.
Tis proper fuckery, Amy.
Meanwhile…
Gibraltar, Iceland See MASSIVE Covid Spike Despite over 90% of Population Vaccinated – via infowars.com
Stats coming out of several countries show vaccinated people are spreading Covid-19, as evidence mounts the vaccine is actually causing viral variants and infections as experts predicted.
In Gibraltar, a peninsula in Spain, almost 99% of the population is fully vaccinated – that’s according to info provided by Google.
By June 1, over 99% of Gibraltar’s population was fully vaccinated. Since that time, new COVID cases per day have increased more than 2500%. (read more)
Of course, it’s ‘cases’. What the fuck does that equate to? It’s whatever fear porn these shysters hope to keep at a fever pitch.
And meanwhile, yet again…

Wuuut?
Wait!
15 days to flatten the curve over a year and half ago, fast forward to present day insanity and we have these fucking dickheads laying down the real, that the poked are the problem?
Who would have thunk it?
“Politicians seldom if ever get [into public office] by merit alone, at least in democratic states. Sometimes, to be sure, it happens, but only by a kind of miracle. They are chosen normally for quite different reasons, the chief of which is simply their power to impress and enchant the intellectually underprivileged… Will any of them venture to tell the plain truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth about the situation of the country, foreign or domestic? Will any of them refrain from promises that he knows he can’t fulfill — that no human being could fulfill? Will any of them utter a word, however obvious, that will alarm or alienate any of the huge pack of morons who cluster at the public trough, wallowing in the pap that grows thinner and thinner, hoping against hope?
Answer: maybe for a few weeks at the start… But not after the issue is fairly joined, and the struggle is on in earnest… They will all promise every man, woman and child in the country whatever he, she or it wants. They’ll all be roving the land looking for chances to make the rich poor, to remedy the irremediable, to succor the unsuccorable, to unscramble the unscrambleable, to dephlogisticate the undephlogisticable. They will all be curing warts by saying words over them, and paying off the national debt with money no one will have to earn. When one of them demonstrates that twice two is five, another will prove that it is six, six and a half, ten, twenty, n.
In brief, they will divest themselves from their character as sensible, candid and truthful men, and simply become candidates for office, bent only on collaring votes. They will all know by then, even supposing that some of them don’t know it now, that votes are collared under democracy, not by talking sense but by talking nonsense, and they will apply themselves to the job with a hearty yo-heave-ho. Most of them, before the uproar is over, will actually convince themselves. The winner will be whoever promises the most with the least probability of delivering anything.” ― A Mencken Chrestomathy
