Fauci rails against 'dark web people' harassing his wife and daughters with violent threats
Business Insider ^ | 10/6/21 | Hilary Brueck

- A new documentary from National Geographic traces Dr. Anthony Fauci's life and career.

- In the film, Fauci rails about the harassing phone calls his wife and daughters have received during the pandemic.

- He also shared one moment last summer when he opened a letter and thought "I'm freaking dead."

--------------------------------------------------------

Dr. Anthony Fauci grew up in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn, where he says he quickly learned that "you didn't take any s### from anybody."

He carried that spirit with him through the HIV/AIDS crisis in the US during the 1980s and 1990s, meeting with activists and eventually including them in the process of developing clinical trials for new life-saving drugs.

But when the coronavirus emerged roughly two years ago, the level of vitriol targeted at Dr. Fauci — director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, and the US' leading advisor on COVID-19 — felt wholly different. It extended to his family, including his wife and three grown daughters, in a brand of threatening personal attacks fueled by online rage.

"These f###### dark web people are really, really getting bad," Fauci said in a new National Geographic documentary, speaking to AIDS activist Peter Staley, who checked in on him during the summer of 2020.

"I mean, they're really, really harassing Chris," Fauci said, referring to his wife, nurse Christine Grady, head of the department of bioethics at the National Institutes of Health.

"I don't understand the hate that people have, and the hate that leads them to do something that could hurt somebody or kill somebody," Grady said of the threats. "It sort of reduces my trust in humanity."

This man is responsible for the sicknesses and deaths of more people than have been affected by any war so far and he just keeps talking, trying to cover what he has done. He belongs in prison for the rest of his days but is being protected by Biden and the democrats.

That was the shooting.
The fight video had a little more shown..
It was on America’s Voice network.
The one being beaten looked smaller..head down against his chest being hit and punched by the bigger kid..guy.
I don’t know which one was the shooter ..maybe he continued being the aggressor
Only a guess..news said he is 18..

I’m sure he’s got a virus he’s built for that too.

His language is very inappropriate for a high ranking public official. People say Trump needs to watch his language. But he never talked like Fauci does to the public. If you want to be tough guy on tv, retire.

Advice for Fauci:

Stay at your office, do your job, stop playing at being a national celebrity. You brought the attention on yourself. Stop whining and take ownership for your stupidity.

Fake. Though they’d probably cream their pants from victimhood if their service did take actual threats for them.

Maybe have the FBI protect you like the school boards.
He deserves to die a miserable death!
