Whenever I hear AIDS, I think of Anthony Fauci’s poor handling of it. When I hear Covid-19, I think of Anthony Fauci’s disastrous handling of it and his stream of contradictory statements. When I hear “lysenkoism” I think of Anthony Fauci and that clod’s bizarre attempt to equate himself with science.

At any rate, PETA made an appropriate image of Fauci using multiple pics of the kind of animals tortured as mentioned above.
HAPPY TWO HUNDRED FIFTIETH BIRTHDAY, AMERICA! What happened in early July of 1776 certainly needs no rehashing so in keeping with my blog’s theme of addressing more out of the way subjects this post will examine various events that took place on other July 4ths throughout American history.
JULY 4TH, 1778 – George Rogers Clark led his rebel forces in taking the British stronghold of Kaskaskia, near the confluence of the Mississippi and Kaskaskia Rivers. Clark and his Rangers were on a mission for then-Virginia Governor Patrick Henry.
America’s 250th birthday is mere days away and as we honor men and women from long, long ago the current heat wave should remind us that Willis H. Carrier, the inventor of modern air conditioning, is truly the lion of the hour.
