The bulk of Dr. Deborah Birx’s book is a brag fest about how she kept subverting the White House’s push to open up the economy – that is, allow people to exercise their rights and freedoms.

Mozart, Mediocrity, and the Administrative State
Every highly productive person – we don’t even have to speak of geniuses here – often ends up surrounded by resentful and mediocre people who have too much time on their hands. They use whatever limited talents they have to plot, confound, confuse, and ultimately wreck their betters. The demand to “comply” is always the watchword: it’s a tool of destruction.
The Astonishing Implications of Schedule F
The gradual rise of the 4th branch of government (the administrative “deep state” bureaucracy) which is very much the most powerful branch – has reduced the American political process to mere theater as compared with the real activity of government, which rests with the permanent bureaucracy.
The Mighty Gorsuch vs. the Administrative State: Quotes from West Virginia vs. EPA

Few things are more dangerous to the future of humanity than a failed and humiliated ruling class that still possesses power.
Choice Quotes from Bill Gates’s New Book “How To Prevent The Next Pandemic”
Gates is a main promoter and funder of lockdown ideology.
Why Is CDC Trying to Put a Mask on Your Face Again?
The massive political power for unelected bureaucrats to arbitrarily dehumanize Americans with mandates, fines, lockdowns, and prison at whim is what the Biden Administration, DOJ, and CDC are now fighting for.
The Unmasking of America
In my lifetime, I’m not sure I can remember a single other time when a federal government rule imposed upon an entire country, one that affected so many people on a daily basis, was suddenly declared to be completely illegal – not just newly illegal in light of new data but illegal all along.
Elon Musk’s Big Move on Twitter
Elon Musk’s exciting and dramatic move represents a bold attempt to overthrow the regime of control, propaganda, and enforced opinion as manufactured by the administrative state.
Is Liberalism a Lost Cause?
Were those of us who, after the end of the Cold War, the rise of the Internet, and the turn of the 20th century, celebrated the inevitably of progress and freedom similarly wallowing in a negligent naivete about the evils that were waiting for the right moment to unleash themselves on the world?
Fauci’s United Front Is Collapsing
Eban’s article adds tremendous detail about the great lengths to which our Fauci-led cabal of officials worked hard to suppress dissent on the question of lab-vs-natural origin.
How Coercion Compromised the Vaccine
The vaccine for this virus should never have been mandated. Having done so, public health has done itself deep harm. One wonders if the reputation of vaccines in general can recover.
New Hampshire Votes for Pharmaceutical Freedom
This battle is much larger than the legal status of Ivermectin. What’s really at stake here is the idea of medical freedom itself. And freedom is a precondition for scientific inquiry and the search for the truth. It is also essential for health.
Forget About Covid, They Say
By all means, forget about Covid and live life as normally as possible in defiance of those who live to foster fear. But, never forget the disastrous Covid restrictions that created such destruction. We cannot let anyone off the hook, much less pretend that the policy disaster that created billions of personal tragedies never happened.
Are They Finally Admitting Natural Immunity?
If you have had Covid, the CDC demonstrated in a chart, you gain robust immunity that is better than that of vaccination, especially concerning duration.
Make the Temporary Reprieve From Lockdowns and Mandates Permanent
We won’t be fully safe until the powers and all existing lockdown plans are completely taken away from public-health authorities.
Comedy, Tragedy, or Both? Time to Reign In The Power of “Public Health” Bureaucrats
The science behind pandemic management needs to be decentralized and include genuine discussion and debate rather than allowing a small cabal to take full power while censoring everyone else.
Follow the Data, They Said, and Then Hid It
The so-called Centers for Disease Control and Prevention purposely hid the vast majority of the data collected on COVID, to enhance its political power.
The CDC Discovers Actual Public Health, Just in Time…for the Elections
CDC’s drastic reversal on vaccine mandates seems little to do with a change in “the science,” and more to do with improving Democrats’ dismal approval ratings ahead of the November elections.
A New Age of Barbarism
The last two years have revealed to us what we would rather not have discovered, namely that freedom and rights, along with enlightened ideals and good science, are extraordinarily fragile.
