With the ‘Twitter Files’ ongoing process of revelation continuing to expose remarkable wrongdoing by a RICO-worthy collection of fascistic rascals unworthy of American public service (I’m taking notice of the Deep State’s massive efforts to prevent competition for their preferred narratives and efforts and protocols,) now seems an appropriate time for me to begin making regular submissions to the Badlands Media series on Substack.
Further, with Elon Musk announcing by tweet that his pronouns are “Prosecute/Fauci,” my long anticipation of accountability for Public Enemy Number One seems near.
This opinion piece is written to go hand-in-hand with the work-product generated from the Twitter Files exposé on Fauci, whenever they may be presented.
I don’t recall when I first heard of Anthony Fauci or first saw him.
Casual research indicated he was educated in the Jesuit tradition, “men for others.” Like far too many Catholics, and other Christians as well, he has evolved into a “humanist.”
For me, that evolution is instructive. When the heavy hand of Catholic training and tradition becomes unmoored from “men for God,” it can be a very, very easy transition down Crazy Street.
Anyone who has studied the rise of liberation theology in South America—I’m looking at you, Pope Che—has seen this awful evolution take place.
Personally, humanists are most often indistinguishable from Communists and their use of the tag ‘humanist’ is just word warfare. This may be why Fauci has angered me from the very start of this Scamdemic.
Do you remember the hysteria?
“Cases, cases, cases!” people kept screaming.
“Cases, cases, cases!”
And I could never determine why the hell an American should be concerned about claims of ‘cases’—claims, mind you, not confirmed incidents verified by any known reliable testing method—breaking out around the country.
My healthy skepticism—something I presumed most adult Americans possessed—drew an immediate line in the sand.
Deaths, not cases.
I still believe healthy skepticism is something of a default American mindset, a proven victory for the Deep State is the patient and skillful application of the tools of subversion. These tools are wielded in plain sight, but through hidden means.
The most prominent tool was highlighted recently in a J. E. Dyer column.
There, she concisely brings sunlight to an approach favored by the most faithful agents of the Deep State/Marxist/Communist/Fascist/Socialist continuum, and that tool is none other than censorship:
The goal of censorship is never just to silence speech. It’s to prevent competition for someone’s preferred speech, which is to be favored, fostered, enshrined, proclaimed and insisted to be valid and true, regardless of evidence. The latter, which routinely devolves into a series of “Big Lies” as the competition for ideas or empirical reporting is driven out, is the profile of gaslighting.
The two always go together. The more you censor, the more latitude you have to gaslight. The purpose of a campaign of political censorship is gaslighting.
What’s been interesting to me, if we can call it merely “interesting,” is the extent to which we’re starting to see communication through the media, purporting to be from government agencies, that offers no proof whatsoever that it’s based on actual evidence or independently verifiable events or observations.
Along with this phenomenon, we’re seeing “lies of omission” by which the media, again purporting to speak for government agencies, present seeming conclusions about certain topics that don’t comport with the basic evidence cited. The media give us word salads that leave an unmistakable impression, but it’s a misleading impression because there’s no basis for believing or agreeing to it.
In 21st Century warfare as practiced by the CCP and all those who work in their service—previously identified merely as useful idiots—lies of omission made in furtherance of that which is to be favored, fostered, enshrined, proclaimed and insisted to be valid and true, regardless of evidence—is no big deal whatsoever.
We have many examples of this over the last seven years or so:
The ‘cases, cases, cases’ hysteria is but one. The ridiculous narrative surrounding the January 6th event is another. But the juxtaposition of cases versus deaths remains a fascinating example for me. It was my immediate curiosity then, and that curiosity has not lessened in the slightest.
As I repeatedly indicated on Twitter then, not until you present something credible about extraordinary deaths will I give a single, solitary damn about any hysteria amplified by a remarkably coordinated range of organizations, corporations, and governments.
Yet, to my 2020 surprise, few people in the United States and around the world had the same approach. At least, that’s what social media was consistently telling me at the time.
We were months into the Scamdemic and the global response to it when September 16, 2020 arrived. While scanning social media sites, and reviewing all manner of open tabs in my browser, an individual on Twitter, Daniel Levitt, with a handle of @daniellevitt22, posted the following tweet that caught my totally exasperated attention:
Just to recap what we know about COVID:
(1) Lockdowns increase deaths
(2) Sweden was right
(3) Neil Ferguson was wrong
(4) Masks are ineffective
(5) 95% are asymptomatic
(6) Up to 80% may be immune
(7) It stops at ~20% antibodies
(8) More cases ≠ more deaths
When I saved that tweet to my personal files on September 17th, it had garnered 136 replies, 2,053 retweets, and 4,085 likes. Clearly, there were many people who agreed with those eight points.
You will see, however, if you've clicked on the link, the @daniellevitt22 tweet is now gone and so is Daniel Levitt’s account. It’s been erased. This situation has been the normal result for many on the conservative side of the aisle.
Twitter either harassed him into ghosting himself, or they've disappeared him themselves. Whatever the case, his tweet was directly on point and was a sentiment shared by many around the world.
Remember, this was September of Election Year 2020. The basic facts were absolutely known by then.
Fast forward past the stolen presidential election of 2020, and the tremendous anger arising from obvious ballot stuffing to steal an election in furtherance of a coup. Fast forward past my shock at the ho-hum acceptance of the steal by family and friends. Race past all of that and take in 26 minutes or so of video frozen in time.
Yes, it is your boy. I delivered a 70-post screed on Twitter and it was read by my future Trash Talk co-host Patrick Gunnels on one of his Reading Epic Threads Twitter series.
In the 2016 election cycle, the base of the Republican Party gave the GOPe a test; the GOPe failed that test, miserably, and the incoming Trump Administration put together an invasion force to root out secret adherents to a theology (Communism) masquerading as an ideology (Socialism).
All three branches of our government need to re-embrace our inalienable individual rights as First Sovereigns, and the following two particular columns should be carefully read and re-read to drive that point home:
So, ladies and gentlemen, the applicable exclamation today is not cases, cases, cases. No, not at all. Instead, it’s Fauci, Fauci, Fauci!
Anthony Fauci is the face of anti-American governmental overlords and the face of the willing executor of the Deep State’s bidding. This ‘man for others’ overstepped his legal authority decades ago. I’ll leave that particular discussion for others.
But Fauci does not act alone for the criminal syndicate of syndicates. He, and others like him in various governments, corporations, and groups skillfully employ Bottom Bitches all across the United States. These are people who not only disseminate preferred narratives, but insist on partisan censorship among a host of other clearly unconstitutional actions.
Think of Katie Hobbs in Arizona, for instance.
I expect I will have more on Anthony Fauci in a future column. Specifically, I’m thinking of providing a Florida example of how he likely had a direct hand in the quite curious reporting on ‘cases, cases, cases’ within America and beyond.
Until my next submission, keep the faith. I pray that you will remain optimistic and patient while persevering with local action of one sort or another wherever you currently reside.
Finally, since this is my initial written submission at Badlands Media, I’ll close with language at one time in the not too distant past I used to end most eMail correspondence.
Patience. Preparation. Perseverance.
Attention to Detail. Flexibility. Resiliency.
Never think that God's delays are God's denials.
Hold on; hold fast; hold out. Patience is genius.
Later, Gators.

So great! Thank you!! And thanks, especially for the link to the video. My interest in ALL the Devolution pieces brought me to Epic Threads Reader, Patrick. His voice is marvelous and he read your thread perfectly, adding meaning with pauses and inflection. I thank THE MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE, MY SAVIOR, JESUS, for all of you digital soldiers!! The shape-shifting serpents and the gaslighting get to me, at times, I admit. I am a nobody. A grammie in FL, who recently chose the battlefield of a pregnancy resource center where I volunteer and act as the asst. director and client advocate. Here I can focus on TRUTH: true information, the truth of the Gospel, and the truth of blessings received for loving my neighbor. It is a tonic and respite for my soul. I spent a semester in the USSR in 1976. I was young and dumb, but wise enough to learn from what I was seeing and hearing, firsthand. I suspected our news media was morphing into USSR-style one-sided or fabricated storyboarding in the late 90's. However, daily responsibilities of family and work left little time political action, other than writing my DC delegation, or calling my local representatives. Hah! I was naive enough to believe we had the system of government outlined in the Constitution.
Now I believe we have had "s-elections" my entire adult voting life and that every election was monkeyed with. I so appreciate your closing remarks: God's delay is not God's denial. I can forgive each and every compatriot who was brainwashed, mainly because I was in that group for decades. BUT. NOT. A. SINGLE. S-ELECTED. OFFICIAL. WHO. KNEW. AND. SOLD. US. OUT. TO. CCP-INFILTRATED. BUREAUCRATS. Prison is a MUST for them. Thanks again, for your wisdom.
Great article and great to see others felt/feel the same way regarding the Plandemic and Dr. Doom, who should IMO be on trial for crimes against humanity.
