[Help us preserve David’s legacy: HERE.]
In Radical Son, David Horowitz exposed the murderous campaigns of the Black Panthers, which marked his departure from the left. David should also be remembered as an early opponent of white coat supremacy, in a case that lingers to this day.
“In 1981, San Francisco Chronicle writer Randy Shilts tipped David and Peter to a potential epidemic known as AIDS, which was rapidly spreading through the bathhouses in San Francisco,” David’s son Ben Horowitz recently explained. That year, David and Peter Collier published Whitewash: Gay Leaders in California Have Obscured Vital Information About How the AIDS Disease Spreads. Shilts would write And the Band Played On: People, Politics and the AIDS Epidemic, and David would revisit the episode in Radical Son.
“For political reasons,” David wrote, “there would be no systematic testing or reporting, or contact tracing of infected parties – standard health measures in stemming contagions in the past.” David was calling out the government’s politicization of disease and departure from established medical practice. That set the stage for Dr. Anthony Fauci, who earned a medical degree in 1966 but in 1968 became a “yellow beret” at the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
Dr. Fauci’s bio showed no advanced degrees in molecular biology or biochemistry but in 1984 the NIH made him head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID). Nobel laureate Kary Mullis, inventor of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), believed that Fauci did not understand electronic microscopy, did not understand medicine, and “should not be in a position like he’s in.”
Fauci maintained that AIDS was caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) discovered by French scientist Luc Montagnier. This drew a challenge from the Group for the Scientific Reappraisal of the HIV/AIDS Hypothesis, including Mullis, Peter Duesberg and Charles A. Thomas. Instead of debating these medical scientists, all more qualified than himself, Fauci branded them “AIDS denialists” and worked to cancel the media appearances and grants of professor Duesberg, who would author Inventing the AIDS Virus.
Fauci predicted that AIDS would ravage the entire population but as Michael Fumento showed in The Myth of Heterosexual AIDS, it never did. That reality had no effect on Fauci, whose drug of choice to treat AIDS was AZT (azidothymidine), marketed as Zidovudine, a DNA chain terminator rejected for cancer treatment because of excessive cytotoxicity.
As Robert F. Kennedy Jr. showed in The Real Anthony Fauci, the NIAID boss tested AZT and other dangerous drugs on foster children in New York City, a campaign charted by the BBC in Guinea Pig Kids. Despite this deadly campaign and other failures, Fauci remained at the helm of NIAID.
In early 2017, Fauci proclaimed there was “no doubt” President Trump would be confronted with a surprise infectious disease outbreak during his presidency. In 2019, Fauci funded gain-of-function research (GOF) which makes viruses more lethal and transmissible, at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) in China. In early 2020, CDC official Dr. Nancy Messonnier, a member of the CDC’s Epidemic Intelligence Service, announced the arrival of a “novel coronavirus” that would menace the nation.
Dr. Fauci proclaimed that the Covid virus arose naturally in the wild and imposed a rigid lockdown regime with mandatory vaccinations even for children. As Rebecca Culshaw noted in The Real AIDS Epidemic: How the Tragic HIV Mistake Threatens us All, the vaccine campaign was “a massive clinical trial was conducted in real time on the entire population,” and duly weaponized. Biden called Covid a “pandemic of the unvaccinated,” and fired 8,700 armed service members who refused the experimental vaccines.
When scientists found evidence of a lab origin, the NIAID boss branded them “conspiracy theorists.” The scientists of the Great Barrington Declaration, including Dr. Jay Bhattacharya of Stanford, challenged Fauci’s rigid lockdowns. Instead of debating these scientists, Fauci branded them “fringe epidemiologists.” In similar style, as Ben Horowitz recalled, David and Peter had been smeared as “homophobes,” for exposing the politicization of AIDS. During Covid, Fauci took it to another level.
The NIAID boss, proclaimed that he represented science, and that those who criticized him were only attacking science itself. Fauci thus certified his status as a megalomaniac Lysenko figure, but there was more to him.
On his way out of the White House, Biden pardoned Dr. Fauci, contending that the pardon should not be mistaken for any “wrongdoing” or “as an admission of guilt for any offense.”
As Fauci continues to rake in the dough, the people’s representatives enjoy a target-rich environment.
Joe Biden issued no pardon to outgoing NIH director Lawrence Tabak, who admitted the gain-of-function funding. The Delaware Democrat issued no pardon to James LeDuc, who signed deals with China to destroy documents and materials. Biden issued no pardon to Dr. Nancy Messonnier, who faithfully echoed China’s talking points, and declined to tell reporters who was telling her to withhold information on Wuhan.
As they pursue the Fauci gang, Congress and NIH director Jay Bhattacharya should take a lesson from David Horowitz. Ignore the angry reaction from the left and keep up the fight against white coat supremacy. And since there is no statute of limitations on murder, the DOJ should not forget the Black Panthers.
January 17 marked 50 years since Betty Van Patter, the bookkeeper David hired for the Panthers’ school in Oakland, was found dead in San Francisco Bay. Panther boss Elaine Brown, who fired Van Patter, is still around. So is her supporter Jerry Brown, a three-time presidential candidate, four-term governor of California, former mayor of Oakland and California attorney general. What did Jerry Brown know and when did he know it?
David Horowitz’s face in the above photo is so expressive. He seems to look with love upon whomever is taking the photo.
Truly the earth has lost a great soul. God bless David Horowitz, and give him peace.

More wrong wing covid bs
Another great man I became aware of at the same time I learned of the existence of Mr. Horowitz was Thomas Szasz who warned of the coming “therapeutic state” from his observations of what had and was still happening in the USSR, it was still in existence.
Mr. Szasz’s predictions have come true. They dovetail with this subject.
AIDS was the beginning of so much government malfeasance and started the game amongst Dims of the “who can come up with the most outlandish possible horror” game when it comes to almost anything but has reached perfection with “climate change”.
It all started with AIDS in so many ways. You cannot fully understand the mechanisms of the plandemic without a thorough study of AIDS. Incredible how that horrific little man was involved in both. Almost startlingly impossible to believe.
Government in the District of Insider Trading is much like acting is in the United Kingdumb. You keep seeing the same people over and over again.
We’ve lost a great truth teller and there’s no getting over it. No one to replace him. As far back as Heterodoxy which I actually subscribed to and received in snail mail and eagerly looked forward to reading it like it was not to overdo it = a holy wafer of truth telling – and as the only publication against the overwhelming flow in L.A. It was like a life raft in the maeltrom of ‘go along’ thinking – so much of it in my own community of struggling artists who refused to see the truth of what was going on e.g. Black chauvinism and gangsterism and get past their resisting of ‘the man’ . re: the L.A. riots and the flashpoint at say Normandie etc. with Reginald Denny going on TV and apologizing to his black attackers for hitting him with a cinder block and shooting hiim w/ a shotgun What a topsy turvy world it was and David was one of the few people who called a spade for a spade. Well, gird your loins and prepare yourself to be strong and fill his shoes to the best degree that you can.

Fauci for prison! This grifter should be locked up and anyone who lost his job because of the mandatory vaccine should be compensated.
