Did Donald Trump Just Accuse Big Pharma Lying About Vaccine and COVID Drugs?

My biggest critique of President Trump during the primaries was his accepting the advice of public health figures such as Anthony Fauci, Deborah Birx, and the Big Pharma companies. 

Throughout the campaign, Trump continued to insist that Operation Warp Speed was one of his greatest achievements, and he was clearly annoyed that he didn’t receive credit for its successful implementation. And, indeed, if the COVID vaccine were all it was cracked up to be, he would have a point on that score. 

Well, if this Truth Social post is any indication, President Trump is starting to wonder if he misjudged his trust in Big Pharma, and it is about time. 

President Trump appears to finally be turning on Operation Warp Speed and Pfizer specifically. This is a very interesting shift in tone.

I for one would love to see the numbers Pfizer was showing President Trump. If Pfizer gave him fake numbers, man… That seems criminal! pic.twitter.com/gfWK3dCFHn

It’s impossible to overstate the significance of this shift in attitude. Not only will it break the dam of denial for many people–after all, if Trump is good at anything, it is focusing the attention of the public on an issue in a way that even the Pravda Media cannot–but it signals that the people who pushed the COVID-19 vaccine on all of us could face legal liability. 

What Trump is suggesting–he is not outright accusing anyone yet–is that the people who advised him were not merely mistaken in their claims, but actually committed fraud. The approval of the vaccine and the immunity from lawsuits were both based on the representations made to the government, and if those representations were fraudulent, then the legal immunity could likely be stripped. 

The only medical intervention that’s simultaneously so safe it needs legal immunity, so effective it requires endless boosters, and so necessary that countries without it have better health outcomes.

Whatever the likelihood of successful criminal prosecutions, we can be certain that civil liability for vaccine injuries would be nearly incalculable. And if there is anything we can be sure of, in most jurisdictions, the jury pool would not be inclined to overlook the “oopsies.” 

Peter Navarro Says Fauci & Pfizer Lied to Trump About the COVID Vaccines

The biggest lie wasn’t just to the public.

It was to the President.

I am not one who believes that everything big Pharma does is bad–much of what they do benefits patients–and I am also not one to believe that they are pure as the living snow. Hundreds of billions of dollars were amassed during the COVID pandemic, and numerous lies were told to facilitate that outcome. 

People kill for a lot less, and people have been killed here. I don’t pretend to know how many, or what the long-term consequences for people not immediately injured will be–I expect that there will be a spectrum ranging from “no problem at all” to early death or permanent disability–but I know for certain that most juries would tend to side with plaintiffs. 

It’s a long way from one social media post to the collapse of Pfizer, but if I were they, I would be shaking in my boots. 

If Pfizer were to fall, its intellectual property would be sold off, so any necessary drugs it makes would not disappear. And its collapse would certainly be a warning to everyone else. This is, if nothing else, a shot across the bow. 

Big Pharma needs to be taken down a notch or three. Not destroyed–lots of things they do benefit people–but not immune from liability either. 

This bears watching. It could turn out to be huge.
