Dr. Anthony Fauci, who led the U.S. response to the Covid-19 pandemic, privately complained about President Donald Trump’s ramblings — and compared him to an “obnoxious adolescent” — in personal diary entries released this weekend.
More than a thousand pages of Fauci’s journal were released by Sen. Rand Paul, who heads the Senate Homeland Security Committee. As part of an investigation into the origins of Covid-19, Paul has called on Fauci to testify on the pandemic before the committee Wednesday. The Kentucky Republican has long peddled the theory that the virus came from a leak at a lab in Wuhan, China, accusing Fauci and other government officials of misleading the public about its source — claims Fauci has denied.
can’t get the full Epstein files required by law, but we can get 1,000 pages of a doctor’s personal journals because one deranged senator has a theory
Fauci should have said his diary has irrefutable proof the orange diddler raped a bunch of kids with Epstein. That diary would remain sealed tight and never see the light of day
Rand Paul’s deranged, but he’s also a scheming, cynical manipulative demagogue.
He’s also a failed MD that has an axe to grind about the AMA and NIH.
Dude, the entire fucking civilized free world got annoyed by “obnoxious adolescent” Trump.
Paul might be the stupidest son of a bitch on the planet if he actually thought leaking these was somehow going to validate his conspiracy theory quest.
stupidest son of a bitch on the planet
It’s not like he’s trying to convince anyone that isn’t categorically a runner up in the same contest.
The guy had to make up his own certification board to get his medical license.
You don’t need a diary to know that, there’s plenty of video evidence where he’s obviously sick of all the bullshit. Totally had the “how am I the only educated person in this room?” vibe toward the end.
In conservative circles they’re talking about the diary as if it’s a smoking gun exposing Fauci as some kind of manipulator who covered up the lab origin conspiracy.
Yeah, nothing about the reasons why that conspiracy theory was not only unsupported by facts, but contradicted by the evidence. There are measurable differences between lab-grown viruses and those in a human or animal host population.
But MAGAdiots hate science, so there’s no point attempting to reason with them. You can’t convince them, all you can do is drive them from office.
Chinese wet markets trapped wild animals from hundreds of kilometers away and kept them on cages shitting on each other.In the wild, these animals would have no contact. This is exactly how SARs started in 2003 and it’s how the next pandemic will start in 5-8 years because nothing has been done to change this behavior in China.
Any virologist can tell you propagation of virus in lab cultures attenuates them, even HIV.
If SARS/cov2 was lab made, there would be restriction enzyme sequence scars in the genome sequence. This was the first thing everyone looked for when the genome sequence was made available.
This man has served humanity for his entire existence and is forced to suffer these moronic fools.
I knew Tony Fauci in the 90s. Watching him bury his face on live TV when Trump said something stupid was surreal.
The response to Fauci’s efforts really changed my perspective as a scientist in helping and educating society.
I think the entire world, minus braindead conservatives, are annoyed by obnoxious adolescent Trump.
Dr.Fauci gave the entire world a view of it without cars. Without planes, with out huge commute. He showed how reduced pollution brought back nature. I recorded many happenings in Reddit that had not previously happened until the COVID lock downs.
I want that life to be permanent. That was like happiness reached after a long persuit.
Ah yes…Fauci was the one misleading the public…not the turnip who was peddling bleach and fucking horse dewormer…
Conservatives really insist on proving their stupidity at every turn
Rand Paul is suuuuch a piece of shit. JFC.
Gonna feel the same unfiltered glee when he eats shit as I did with Lindsey Graham and Rush Limbaugh. Damn near had an orgasm.
Those regular White House COVID press conferences were like a fever dream.
Let’s say Rand Paul is right (he’s not) what does that change?
The point was the US government response in 2020 was completely incompetent, despite a series of protocols in place by the previous administration.
And the next pandemic response will be to do nothing and outlaw masks.
The response was an incompetent mess because trump got rid of the pandemic response protocols. Then believed we should drink bleach, take horse dewormer, and shine light on our blood to cure it. Not to mention his pathetic adaptation of masks. He did everything wrong and the only reason we got what we got is thanks to Fauci. He is a hero
Fauci is a saint. Kill the rest.
