My Letter to Florida's Attorney General

Part I - Making a Case to Investigate Dr. Deborah Birx

When Jeffrey Tucker of the Brownstone Institute, attorney Michael Senger, Raheem Kassam, et.al. wrote their reviews of Deborah Birx’s book, I found myself appalled, but unsurprised at her audacity. Stunning admissions of “subterfuge”, “sleights of hand”, hiding her true intentions, etc., etc. run rampant through these reviews. After reading about half a dozen of them, it became clear to me that Dr. Deborah Birx had committed fraud — if only through omission or through the purposeful sidelining of alternative views.

I felt compelled to write to Florida’s Attorney General, Ashley Moody, to make a case for — at a minimum — an investigation into Birx’s conduct as White House Coronavirus Response Coordinator. My Courtesy Copy list included Governor DeSantis, Dr. Joseph Ladapo, Florida Surgeon General (who is mentioned in Birx’s book), Florida Solicitor General Henry Whitaker, and others — seventeen in all and all sent certified, signature confirmation of delivery.

The letter is 15 pages, though it includes several images which extends its length. I have made a few edits in this version such as removing my address information, but adding in Part I an image of “scarf lady” on the first page. Here is Part I:

August 2, 2022

The Honorable Ashley B. Moody

Attorney General of Florida

PL-01 The Capitol

Tallahassee, Florida 32399-1050

SUBJECT: The Commission of Fraud against Governor DeSantis, Florida, & the U.S.

Dear Attorney General Moody:

I write to you today – my second communication to you – out of grave concern. This concern stems from the revelations coming from Dr. Deborah Birx via her recently published book. As you know, Dr. Birx held the role of White House Coronavirus Response Coordinator from early 2020 through December of that year. She ended her tenure in January 2021 by resigning in December 2020 following the violation of her own stay-at-home “order”¹. She has since written about her experience.

In her book, Silent Invasion: The Untold Story of the Trump Administration, Covid-19, and Preventing the Next Pandemic Before It’s Too Late², Dr. Birx tells the story of how she handled the job she didn’t want, but felt compelled to take³. Astonishingly, Dr. Birx provides detailed descriptions of her “strategy” for managing the “COVID” outbreak. This “strategy” included subterfuge, insubordination, deceit, collusion, and data manipulation.

In short, Dr. Birx committed fraud against Governor DeSantis, the people of Florida, and the people of the United States. In her book, she tells us how.

FROM HERE TO LOCK DOWN

On the market for approximately three months, publicity about Silent Invasion has been picking up with more and more articles appearing on the Internet. In contrast to earlier glowing reviews by such outlets as The New York Times⁴ and Washington Post⁵, these recent reviews display a very different point of view⁶,⁷, ⁸, ⁹, ¹⁰, ¹¹, ¹², ¹³, ¹⁴, ¹⁵ These range from outrage to stunned disbelief at these very public revelations of treachery.

Coming from a public official who took an oath to the Constitution both as a member of the military and as a federal employee makes these revelations all the more shocking. The “sleight of hand” that stands out for many? The revising of weekly governors’ reports. From Dr. Birx herself:

“I devised a work-around for the governor’s (sic) reports I was then writing. Instead of including those recommendations in the common bulleted list, I’d include them in the pandemic summary and state-specific recommendations in the governor’s (sic) reports, where they wouldn’t be so obvious. These weekly reports couldn’t go out on Monday without administration approval. Week by week Marc’s office began providing line-by-line edits. After the heavily edited documents were returned to me, I’d reinsert what they had objected to, but place it in those different locations. I’d also reorder and restructure the bullet points so the most salient—the points the administration objected to most—no longer fell at the start of the bullet points. I shared these strategies with the three members of the data team also writing these reports. Our Saturday and Sunday report-writing routine soon became: write, submit, revise, hide, resubmit. (Bold added) Fortunately, this strategic sleight-of-hand worked. That they never seemed to catch this subterfuge left me to conclude that, either they read the finished reports too quickly or they neglected to do the word search that would have revealed the language to which they objected.”¹⁶

A “work-around”? In my decades of professional experience, if I had ever utilized such a “work around” in crafting official reports, including the surreptitious “hiding” of material data that my boss or others relied on – directly or indirectly – I would have been severely reprimanded – or fired. With cause.

In the case of the White House Coronavirus Response Coordinator, fifty governors relied on these doctored reports – reports that suited this doctor’s objectives. “In slipping these changes past the gatekeepers,”¹⁷ Dr. Birx’s “subterfuge” – as she herself calls it – affected the lives, liberties, and health of hundreds of millions of people in this country.

FIGURES DON’T LIE, BUT…

Dr. Birx admits that her real goal was to get the country locked down – China style as Italy had done, but not to have it look that way. As she wrestled with CDC “data issues” and how to develop the “flatten-the-curve” guidance, Dr. Birx knew she had to manage perceptions.

Knowing the difficulty of getting China-style human lockdowns accepted, she decided to take an incremental, cautionary approach to securing buy-in. In layman’s terms? She lied. Let’s hear once again from Dr. Birx as she describes her ruse for restricting the numbers of Americans allowed to gather:

“I had settled on ten knowing that even that was too many, but I figured that ten would at least be palatable for most Americans—high enough to allow for most gatherings of immediate family but not enough for large dinner parties and, critically, large weddings, birthday parties, and other mass social events… Similarly, if I pushed for zero (which was actually what I wanted and what was required), this would have been interpreted as a “lockdown”—the perception we were all working so hard to avoid.”¹⁸

“Zero”? As in solitary confinement?? She “settled” on ten?? It must be noted here that while ten people gathering was “too many” and “zero” was what she actually wanted/what was “required,” Dr. Birx provides no scientific basis for “zero” or “ten”. In fact, the entire book lacks a single reference for the scientific basis for any of the measures she foisted upon the country. Did she have any? Common sense then and mountains of evidence since give us that answer.

CONCEALING HER TRUE INTENTIONS

“I couldn’t do anything that would reveal my true intention,” she writes, “to use the travel ban as one brick in the construction of a larger wall of protective measures we needed to enact very soon.”¹⁹

“IT’S JUST FOR THE HOSPITALS”

Providing additional detail on her upcoming sales pitch in favor of the lockdown, Dr. Birx refers to her “data-driven approach”, but denies the reader the courtesy of providing any.

“Getting the travel ban through was a crucial first test of my data-driven approach,” she writes. “That it worked would, I hoped, make the end-of-the-week pitch for our version of flattening-the-curve-to-protect hospitals ‘shutdown’ easier.”²⁰

“IT’S ONLY 15 DAYS”

Continuing with-her-face-hanging-out admission, Dr. Birx reveals her subterfuge:

“No sooner had we convinced the Trump administration to implement our version of a two-week shutdown than I was trying to figure out how to extend it. Fifteen Days to Slow the Spread was a start, but I knew it would be just that. I didn’t have the numbers in front of me yet to make the case for extending it longer, but I had two weeks to get them. However hard it had been to get the fifteen-day shutdown approved, getting another one would be more difficult by many orders of magnitude.”²¹

By concealing her true intentions and crafting a deceitful “pitch,” Dr. Birx’s willful and outright lying “worked”. By the end of March 2020/first week of April, Dr. Birx had gotten her wish. She brags:

“In relatively short order by the end of March and the first week of April, there were few holdouts. The circuit-breaking, flattening-the-curve shutdown had begun.”²²

“Holdouts”?²³ Who? A few governors? Our governor? Governor DeSantis who worried – correctly – that if he were to “order” house arrest, it would make him a “dictator”²⁴ ? Does Dr. Birx include the President? Members of his staff? Who exactly? While regaling the reader with tales of her lies and subterfuge, she calls those late – in her mind – to this criminal fraud “holdouts”?

Whoever Dr. Birx actually means by this epithet, imagine being called a “holdout” by an unelected federal coordinator

• Who admits to devising a “work-around” for “adjusting” official data used by The White House, governors, and legislatures

• Who admits to colluding with then-CDC Director Robert Redfield in August 2020 to rewrite testing guidance and then “surreptitiously posted it” without approval to the CDC website hoping the White House would be too busy campaigning to notice

• Who admits to concealing her true intentions when making a “pitch” for lockdowns, lying directly and by omission to the entire country

There’s more. In Part II, we’ll start out hearing from Dr. Marty Makary, M.D., surgeon, author, medical commentator, and professor of surgery and public policy at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. Among other things, Dr. Makary discusses Birx’s artificial inflation of “COVID” case numbers.
