“Follow the science” comes with a great big asterisk
While running for President hiding in his basement, Candidate Joe Biden loved to bang on about how he would “follow the science” when it comes to COVID.
I just did a Twitter search on @JoeBiden for the phrase “follow the science” and he said it a LOT.
Here are just a few examples.
Odd, but since he’s taken over the @POTUS Twitter handle, old “Follow the Science” Joe hasn’t said anything about following the science.
Well, I think we know why.
Because when it comes to opening schools, the “follow the science” mantra is just a wee bit, shall we say, inconvenient.
Turns out “Follow the science” comes with a great big asterisk.
*Unless following the science pisses off the teachers unions.
Biden’s own CDC Director blew the “we can’t open the schools until we pay the billions in ransom to the teachers unions” narrative clean out of the water.
According to “the science,” there is little evidence that schools have in any way contributed to an increase in the transmission of COVID. It is not necessary for teachers to be vaccinated first before returning to in-person teaching.
Yesterday afternoon, White House spokesperson Jen Psircle tried to weasel her way out of the CDC Director’s unequivocal statement by saying the CDC has not released official guidance yet.
Well, if the President🤣 really wants to “follow the science” why is he still prioritizing vaccines for teachers if the CDC Director says it doesn’t need to be a priority?
Because “follow the science” comes with an asterisk, that’s why.
The “science” runs counter to the unions’ demands, therefore “science” can go pound sand.
Teachers Unions are drooling at the prospect of hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars being funneled their way. Democrats, who rely on their campaign contributions, are more than happy to treat us like an ATM in order to funnel that money to Teachers Unions. And as I said back in December, nothing has screwed American school children more than the Teachers Unions’ exploitation of COVID.
Here’s the bottom line.
This COVID spending bill that is screwing you out of the promised $2,000 is not about providing “relief” to American workers. It’s about handing big buckets of cash to the Democrat Party’s preferred special interest groups – chief among them, Teachers Unions.
And if “science” gets in the way of rewarding their friends, “science” won’t be followed; it will be denied.

I saw one meme which said it all: the teachers’ unions will go back to school only when the students start paying dues.
Ha ha!
The “follow the science” mantra is touted only when the so-said science follows the agenda. The regime says, “We believe XYZ. We need scientists to conduct experiments (or merely offer opinions) stating XYZ is true.” And Bill Nye and Dr. Fauci come forward to obey. This new scientific method, aka woke science, you see, is not white supremacy*. It’s inclusive to all hypotheses, but only the ones with correct conclusions are permitted. The coronavirus response you cite in this blog post is a fine example of the new scientific method. Another would be JoRo Biden’s first executive order allowing self-identifying male women to participate in women’s sports. Traditional science would say the individual has DNA defining him as a male. Woke science tells us while that is so, self-identification supersedes the old-fashioned, traditional and white-supremacist science. I wonder if some day we will look back on our time as the Emperor’s New Clothing Era.
