Dr. Anthony Fauci alleged on CNN yesterday that a New York Times report, which blamed the spread of the coronavirus in America on Trump's initial downplaying of the seriousness of the virus, was substantially true. Interestingly, neither Fauci, CNN, nor the New York Times mentioned the fact that Fauci himself, our country's so-called leading expert on communicable diseases, initially downplayed the seriousness of the virus as well. For instance, in January, Fauci claimed that the coronavirus was “not a major threat” to the U.S. Then, in an interview on NBC, as late as February 29, Fauci assured America that there was no need for us to change what we were doing on a day-by-day basis, because the threat posed to us by the coronavirus was “minuscule.”
 
If Fauci, who not only serves as the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, but also as the chief adviser to the president on communicable diseases, initially downplayed the seriousness of the coronavirus himself, why does the media refuse to lay any of the blame for the spread of the virus at Fauci's feet? Why is it all laid at Trump's feet, who received bad advice from Fauci, our country's supposed leading expert on the subject? I don't know about you, but I smell something rotten in Denmark!
 
The liberal press, like CNN and the New York Times, as well as liberal politicians, like Nancy Pelosi, who has praised Dr. Fauci as a "truth-teller," are invested in creating an aura of infallibility around Fauci. Why? Is it not because this man has done more overnight to turn our country  into liberals' long envisioned socialist utopia than the likes of MSNBC or the DNC could ever dream of doing? As long as America is convinced of Fauci's infallibility, Americans will continue to swallow his prescription of full mitigation, with its accompanying side effect of subjugating ourselves to the increasingly draconian measures of a tyrannical government.
 
Dr. Fauci, unbeknownst to today's Americans, has suddenly become the most powerful man in America. Indeed, he is presently wielding over this country more control than I've ever seen wielded by anyone or anything thing in my lifetime. On his advice, we've shutdown our country, devastated our economy, crashed our stock market, soared the ranks of the unemployed, suspended our children's education, closed our churches, and disrupted our daily lives by confining ourselves to our homes.
 
America may have voted for President Donald Trump to run our country, but; the scary truth is, Dr. Anthony Fauci is now running our president. In fact, in a recent interview, Fauci revealed that President Trump not only listens to what he says, but also does what he recommends. 
 
Now, there is no doubt that Trump has become Fauci's puppet for political expediency's sake. Trump fears that refusing to follow Fauci's prescription for America will result in his presidency being portrayed by liberals with the blood of additional coronavirus fatalities on its hands. Furthermore, there is no doubt that a time is quickly approaching when the political scales in this country will begin tilting more toward concern over our country's financial collapse than over additional coronavirus fatalities. When that time comes, Trump will be forced to cut his puppeteer's controlling strings, in order to avoid being hanged by them politically. 
 
The Bible tells us about an ancient King of Judah named Asa who became diseased in his feet (2 Chronicles 16:12-13). Unfortunately, Asa's health crisis did not cause him to turn to the Lord, but only to seek prescriptions from human physicians. In the end, this fatal mistake of King Asa resulted in his death. Is today's America not making the same fatal mistake as King Asa? Are we too, in our current health crisis, refusing to turn to the Lord, as well as trusting exclusively and unequivocally in human physicians, like Dr. Anthony Fauci? As it was with Asa, so shall it be with America; this fatal mistake will prove to be the death of us.
