Marie-Antointette, consort of King Louis XVI of France, is most famously known for saying “Let them eat cake” as a response to hearing her starving peasant subjects had no bread..Whether she actually said it is moot, because, regardless, she lost her head to the guillotine in 1793..“Let them eat cake” for these many hundreds of years has been considered to be the equivalent of how the ‘elite’ look down upon ‘the peasants.’ .There are modern-day equivalents such as “Let them wear masks,” “Let them be vaccinated,” “Let them be locked down,” “Let them...,” OK, you get the drift..Justin Trudeau announced on Monday he tested positive for COVID-19 for the third time, despite having been vaccinated three times. .Apparently, he caught the infection just four days after meeting with President Joe Biden at the Summit of the Americas in Los Angeles, California. .Video of the event shows attendees to the Summit parading into an auditorium, side-by-side, not practising social distancing and not wearing masks..Upon his returned to Canada, Trudeau Tweeted: "I’ve tested positive for COVID-19. I’ll be following public health guidelines and isolating.” And in case anyone cared, he added "I feel okay, but that’s because I got my shots. So, if you haven’t, get vaccinated — and if you can, get boosted. Let’s protect our healthcare system, each other, and ourselves." .Or, maybe eat cake..The timing was interesting. .Upon his return, he was going to face a backlash from his Liberal caucus for not lifting air travel restrictions..No need to face that if you have COVID-19..It was similar to when the Freedom Convoy rolled into Ottawa. .He got COVID-19 making it impossible to even consider meeting anyone from the convoy..And now, it has been announced by The National Institutes of Health in the US Dr. Anthony Fauci tested positive for COVID-19.Fauci, who has directed the NIH's National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases since 1984 and became the face of the fight against COVID-19 in the States, took a rapid antigen test, the government agency said.."He is fully vaccinated and has been boosted twice. He is currently experiencing mild symptoms," said the NIH statement, noting Fauci will "isolate and continue to work from his home.".Unlike Trudeau, Fauci has not recently been in close contact with President Biden or other senior government officials.."Dr. Fauci will follow the COVID-19 guidelines of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and medical advice from his physician and return to the NIH when he tests negative," the NIH said..Once again, interesting timing..Fox News reporter Chad Pergram tweeted Fauci was scheduled to testify Thursday before the Senate Health Committee regarding the pandemic, likely to defend the decisions he made in regard to the virus..He won’t be there, isolating at home and all. And perhaps eating cake..Investigative reporter Daniel Horowitz said the news came as an FDA panel recommended the COVID-19 vaccine for children as young as six months.."Literally as Fauci gets covid after 4 of these shots," he tweeted. "If we had a sane party representing the Nuremberg Code, red state legislatures would convene in an emergency session and ban the shots.".There were other immediate reactions on social media:.Daily Wire: "Fauci will now need to quarantine for 2 years. It's only fair"Dr. Afshine Emrani: "Fauci, fully masked and with 2 shots and 2 boosters has tested positive for Covid. And that's all I got to say about that."Dr. Eli David: "Double masked Fauci just tested positive, after receiving 4 covid shots.""The left is about to cancel him because he forgot to mention that he was THANKFUL TO BE VAXXED AND BOOSTED""Why didn't he mask and vaxx harder?".Marie Anntoinette lost her head. .Trudeau, Fauci and all the other vaccine snake oil salesmen have lost all credibility.
