The problem with Fauci is he is one of those perpetual bureaucratic barnacles who persist across administrations. He might even be SES (Senior Executive Service) which means he’s basically part of the power structure that executes much of federal government policy in his area.
I’m sure it’s next to impossible to get rid of people at that level. The best you could probably do is sequester them in a meeting room, and pick a different spokesman to be the media face.
Of course it wouldn’t have stopped the media from finding him and putting him on talk shows to get his “view”.
I agree.
