National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Anthony Fauci’s salary – the highest of all federal employees – was increased due to his work on vaccine development and bioterrorism research, internal U.S. government documents have laid bare. Fund Real News
Obtained by transparency group OpenTheBooks through a Freedom of Information Act request, a letter from then-National Institutes of Health (NIH) Deputy Director Raynard S. Kingston makes the case for Fauci’s sizable pay increase.
Fauci’s permanent pay raise was to “appropriately compensate him for the level of responsibility… especially as it relates to his work on biodefense research activities.”
Kingston outlines the rationale behind proposing Fauci’s salary increase, emphasizing how he “has been a key figure in the White House and Department’s response to bioterrorism”: In Trump Time: Peter Navarro
“More recently, Dr. Fauci has been a key figure in the White House and Department’s response to bioterrorism. His contributions to this effort have been outstanding and include the development of the departmental strategy to augment smallpox vaccine supplies and the development of a plan to develop new anthrax vaccine. He serves as an expert consultant to the White House, the Secretary of DHHS, congressional staff, and a number of HHS groups on the development of biodefense-related research, and public health priorities. He is leading the development of a series of research initiatives, has coordinated fast-track initiatives for academia and industry participation in biodefense-related research, and is responsible for the development of future intermediate and long-range research plans and policies for a sustained and committed biomedical research response to bioterrorism threats. During FY2004, under Dr. Fauci’s leadership, NIAID significantly expanded, intensified, and accelerated its research programs in biodefense.”
The documents reveal that, as a result, the George W. Bush Administration approved a “permanent pay adjustment” in excess of his regular salary in December 2004. From 2004 through 2007, the pay raise amounted to a 68-percent increase from $200,000 to $335,000-a year.

The unearthed justification for Fauci’s unparalleled taxpayer-funded salary follows extensive reporting revealing how Fauci’s NIH agency funded research at Chinese Communist Party and Chinese military-linked labs such as the Wuhan Institute of Virology – believed by many to be the source of COVID-19. Fauci and his advisors have also signed collaborative research deals with Chinese military fronts and funded American laboratories training Wuhan researchers how to work with “the world’s most dangerous pathogens.”
Creating bio-weapons is kind of an odd response to bio-terrorism.
Maybe that’s just me!
Exactly. Hang him soon.
fauci’s wife is chief of bioethics at the nih...

Dr. Anthony Fauci Received Big Pay Increase To Prevent Pandemics Forbes - Oct. 20, 2021
That was in Forbes but several other media outlets have said the same.
He’s the highest paid govt official in DC. He makes more than POTUS and he’s unelected.
This scum should get the beagle treatment.
Gates got value for the money fooksee recieved.
Yes, I know.
Fauci the Beagle-Bleeder sucks the marrow from taxpayers.
“...Fauci’s 2020 salary was $434k...”
Yes, he earns a buck per body.
In reality, though, he is grossly UNDER paid as the greatest rainmaker in pseudo-science bureaucracy history. Look at the NIH budgets now compared to pre-scam. He’s been leveraging fear since HIV was the ‘novel’ thing in the 80’s, but never so successfully.
Back in the mid 90’s Fauci promised us an AIDS vaccine by 2005. We are still waiting.
Hm. Bioethicists are basically there to rationalize killing, so…
This Balrog Fauci is 111 years old. Somebody please get rid of him.
Not to worry. He has stock in all the vaxxes and many more drugs. His tax-paid salary of $435k is literally pocket change to him.
This Beagle lover would be happy to pull the rope!
Fauci needs to be indicted, arrested, tried, convicted and sent to prison for the remainder of his sorry life!
AND, his every asset confiscated!
