“On the Holmes Front,” with Frank Holmes

If there’s one thing that President Joe Biden has proved throughout his five-decade-long political career, it’s that he always puts family first.

He’s the first one to put his son, Hunter, on foreign business boards… and makes sure Hunter includes “The Big Man.”

He’s the first one to meet with Hunter’s business partners once those relationships are cemented, and the checks are flowing to the Biden family.

He’s the first one to make sure his wife sits at his desk and calls the shots backstage—and to make sure you call her “Dr. Jill.”

He’s the first one to let his brother drop his name—and offer access—to investors in what critics call economic schemes, scams, or fronts.

So now that he’s president and has lots of federal jobs to fill, it’s no surprise that Biden puts the families of his cronies first, too.

One of the most influential players in the Biden administration is an investment management group called BlackRock—and it turns out, it’s a family affair.

“BlackRock, the world’s largest investment manager, has become an increasingly influential Wall Street player in Washington, DC as a poster child of the revolving door between finance and politics,” according to Business Insider.

Biden is bringing in its top brass to run his administration… but the media haven’t covered the family connection: BlackRock’s think tank is run by Tom Donilon, a former Carter, Clinton, and Obama administration official.

Tom Donilon’s also the brother of Michael Donilon, Biden’s chief political strategist during the 2020 presidential campaign.

Donilon, who was an NSA staffer for Obama, was said to be Biden’s choice to head the CIA, but Donilon hasn’t given the OK.

But he’s one of the only people in BlackRock who hasn’t snapped up jobs in the Biden administration.

Biden’s top economic adviser is a former BlackRock investment executive Brian Deese, who has been tapped by Biden to lead the National Economic Council.

Deese held an important place in Barack Obama’s White House, too. He oversaw the Obama administration’s bailout of the auto industry, when Obama tipped the scales in favor of his friends (and financiers) in the labor unions.

Deese also helped Obama’s Secretary of State John Kerry hammer out the disastrous Paris Climate Accords, which would force the United States to virtually shut down its entire economy by limiting its use of fossil fuels, while the world’s worst polluters—like China—get a free hand to replace us as the world’s leading superpower.

Needless to say, Biden thinks he’s amazing.

“Brian is among the most tested and accomplished public servants in the country—a trusted voice I can count on to help us end the ongoing economic crisis, build a better economy that deals everybody in, and take on the existential threat of climate change in a way that creates good-paying American jobs,” Biden said.

Obama crony David Axelrod also said that “no one worked harder or more effectively to plan and execute the rescue of the American auto industry in the dark, early days of the Great Recession than Brian Deese.” “He was heroic,” Alexrod tweeted.

Anyone who’s a hero to the Obama administration is going to be a villain for Main Street America.

Deese isn’t the only one from the Biden campaign strategist’s family firm.

Other BlackRock officials, past or present, who are joining the Biden administration include Adewale “Wally” Adeyemo and longtime Democrat Larry Fink, who will be one of the most important leaders in the Treasury Department. And Michael Pyle is the top economic advisor to Vice President Kamala Harris.

Biden has said he’ll stand up to special interests, especially the wealthiest people in society. He always warned about turning government over to the super-rich. “You have to go to those people who have money,” Biden said. “And they always want something.”

What do they want from Biden in the next four years—and how much will we end up paying for it?

Biden has already been a disaster for the American economy. Jobs have yet to meet expectations, inflation is exploding at the highest rate in 13 years, and gas prices keep rising, with no end in sight.

Meanwhile, BlackRock is making a killing.

The BlackRock arrangement will be good for the Biden and Donilon families—but it’s already bad news for ours.

You Are Not God, Dr. Fauci – If Science Was Never Challenged, We Would Never Make Any Progress

His attitude towards criticism is a prime example of scientism, which treats people in scientific fields with undue reverence.

There has been an interesting cultural fight within the culture war over science itself. Many people on the political left have a tendency to place scientific method on a pedestal and not consider it for what it is – which is, purely and simply, scientific method. 

Rather, they treat science as a sort of dogma which cannot be challenged. In a sense, their attitude towards it is not that different from a Christian’s outlook on the Bible. A Christian believes that the Bible is God’s word, and is static and unchanging because of the nature of God himself. 

However, the nature of science is not static because our understanding of the world is not static. As such, it’s appalling when someone who wields as much influence and political power as America’s chief medical adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci speaks in a manner that treats science as a dogma. 

In a recent interview with Chuck Todd on MSNBC, Fauci recently claimed people who are critical of him are “critical of science itself”, which is clearly preposterous. Science is meant to be questioned. If science was not questioned, scientific progress would be impossible because there would be no prevailing attitude that more must be learned.

The attitude and belief that science is some sort of monolith is very disconcerting from a societal perspective. I have great respect for those who spend their time trying to understand our universe one cell and one atom at a time, but Fauci’s stance seems to spit in the face of those people. Ultimately, every person who works in the sciences can only act on what they know, and whether they admit it or not they’ll never know enough. That, surely, is the name of the game.

However, Dr. Fauci comes across as if he is the self-declared face of science and that he cannot be questioned for this very reason. Aside from this being wildly untrue, this is a prime example of scientism. It promotes the idea that his diplomas and governmental position make him someone who cannot be questioned, and that his knowledge has elevated him to a place above us mere mortals. As such if you don’t listen to what he says you’re nothing but a troglodyte. 

I don’t know how a man of such short stature carries such massive arrogance, but he certainly does not speak as if he is someone who has the proper attitude of a scientist.

And there is a deeper cultural issue that comes from this. The trend of those on the Left to worship scientists as if they are holy figures does nothing but boost their egos. That sort of deference does not show a hunger for knowledge, which is problematic.

Sure, scientists are to be respected because success and status take an incredible amount of study and knowledge. But it doesn’t make you God. And ultimately, for everyone’s sake, I would hope that Fauci will realise this at some point.
