The House of Representatives on Wednesday approved a war powers resolution aimed at ending unauthorized U.S. military involvement in Iran, marking the most significant congressional challenge yet to President Donald Trump’s handling of the conflict.

The measure, sponsored by Rep. Gregory Meeks (D-N.Y.) invokes the 1973 War Powers Resolution and would require the administration to obtain explicit authorization from Congress before continuing hostilities against Iran, except in cases involving an imminent threat to the United States. The vote followed months of growing bipartisan concern over a conflict that began in.

Dr. Anthony Fauci had plenty to say in the latest episode of Chris Wallace’s CNN+ series “Who’s Talking to Chris Wallace.”

The chief medical advisor to Presidents Trump and Biden singled out Trump when Wallace asked if a “smarter” government could have done more to prevent needless COVID deaths.

Mediaite further reports:

During the interview, Wallace asked Dr. Fauci about the death toll, which is nearing 1 million in the United States. He asked Fauci “if the government had been smarter right from the start, in March of 2020 in dealing with this less, and I would say over the course of the two years, both under President Trump and to some degree, under President Biden, less politics, more public health, could we have had a lot fewer deaths?”

Fauci cited Trump tweets that whipped up opposition to locking down at the time and said it contributed to more deaths, but when Wallace pressed, declined to say how many:

FAUCI: I believe so. I believe so. I mean, I can’t quantitate it for you about how many less deaths. You can’t even model that, I don’t think. But there were certain things that were done that if they were done differently, we likely would have had… For example, when we were trying to lock down, if you use that word, that’s a very charged word for some people. Remember, when we were trying to get the 15 day and then the 30 day extension during the Trump administration, and yet he was coming out, right after we came out and I said, with Dr. Birx, let’s do the 15-30 day, he would get up and say, you know, “Liberate Virginia, liberate Michigan,” which was just completely contrary and antithetical with what we were trying to do. But if we had really locked down, we probably wouldn’t have lost a lot of people early on, but we would still… and in fairness to all the parties involved, be at the Trump administration and the Biden administration, when you get a virus as nasty as this, you’re going to lose a lot of people, no matter how good you are…

Fauci declined to respond when asked by Wallace if hundreds of thousands of deaths were preventable.

Instead, he said, “Again, it’s really tough, Chris, to quantitate it because you do, it’s a headline, and I don’t want to do that.”

    So the “expert” who said in Feb 2020 that Americans had nothing to worry about is now blaming Trump for things done in March? What a fu*king asswipe this guy is.

      Mick

      Totally agree! And like many others in the CDC, needs to be investigated and charged for his crimes.

    Mr. Fauci—–what a tangled web we get when we practice to deceve.

      I can’t think of a more crooked duo than Fauci and Wallace, and they are so pompous they don’t even know it. I see through both of them and don’t like what I see. Time for Fauci to go and take his big ego with him. He’s responsible for the covid deaths as far as I’m concerned.

    It’s a known fact that when fauci worked at whuhan labs for bill gates and george soros that he was working on the bat virus. fauci developed the virus. fauci can’t talk about anyone killing people from the virus. If fauci had’t developed the virus there would have not been any deaths.

    Fauci is a disaster and all of his advice failed. Lock-downs don’t work. Immediate use of Therapeutics and other treatments would have cut the deaths in half. Fauci’s sole solution was vaccines that do not work and it now looks like they are creating long-term negative effects on those who are vaccinated.

    Questions Chris forgot to ask….

    Wallace: how many deaths would have been prevented if you hadn’t funded the Wuhan lab with it’s lack of safeguards?

    Fauci: millions.

    Wallace: How many lives were saved by banning flights from China… Which you opposed?

    Fauci: hundreds of thousands.

    Wallace: how many people trust you?

    Fauci: just you Chris.

      Mick

      What you lay out here is sadly hilarious but right on.
      First, Chris Wallace is a joke and missing most of his father’s genes, but can’t think of better pairing than with Fauci to personify lies and deceit in both the medical and journalist professions!

    It’s not exactly a secret that there is a so-called “secret” society comprised of the wealthiest people from several countries around the world, Jesse Ventura did a fine job of exposing this “society’ to those who would listen along with their primary goal, which is to “reduce the world population”. With the help of those who invested their knowledge and support to the Wuhan lab and the creation of this virus for their own profit have succeeded in just that!

    Who was it that sent the money for Corona Virus research to the Wuhan Lab?
    I don’t think it was President Trump!
    Who provided that money? Doctor who?
