>>It's also dazzling how "The deep state" has become "officials and clinicians doing their best and breaking records"
LOL. If you can get enough straw men on enough high horses, you'll be able to emulate Lord Cardigan at Balaclava! ;-)
But seriously - people like Fauci don't have a politically subversive bone in their bodies. He's outlasted anybody to whom he might be thought to owe gratitude or allegiance and he takes pride in not participating in palace or other beltway intrigues. Deep state? Yeah, nah (as the bright young things say around here)
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
