Fauci said GOP attacks against him are 'nonsense' and he had to 'laugh' when Sen. Ted Cruz said he should be prosecuted
Busienss Insider ^ | Nov 28 | Connor Perrett

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the longtime director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, in a wide-ranging interview that aired Sunday said the political attacks against him are nothing more than "nonsense" and "noise."

"So anybody spins lies and threatens and all that theater that goes on with some of the investigations and the congressional committees and the Rand Pauls and all that other nonsense, that's noise," Fauci said during an appearance on CBS News' "Face the Nation."

Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, a Republican, in October called for Fauci to be fired, claiming he lied to Congress about US-funded research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology involving gain of function experiments, as Insider's Morgan Keith reported. Fauci has disputed such claims.

"That's noise. I know what my job is," he added.

In the Sunday interview, "Face the Nation" moderator Margaret Brennan asked Fauci about comments made by Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, a Republican, who at an October hearing called on US Attorney General Merrick Garland to prosecute Fauci over claims he lied about gain of function experiments.

"I have to laugh at that. I should be prosecuted? What happened on January 6, Senator?" Fauci replied, laughing, and referencing the January 6 riot at the US Capitol that was incited by former President Donald Trump and led to his impeachment earlier this year.

"Do you think that this is about making you a scapegoat to deflect from President Trump?" Brennan asked.

"Of course. Of course. You have to be asleep not to figure that one out," Fauci said.

This is one of a few issues I’m squarely behind Paul on.

The absurdity of the guy who financed the Wuhan lab development
of COVID-19, continuing to be the spokesperson for US Policy, goes
beyond the pale.

Was this even brought up in his little softball interview?

Genuine question as I dont know. But I assume it wasn’t.

“I know what my job is.” To always be right and to never be wrong. Why? Because he is a narcissist.

Not only should Fauci be prosecuted, but so should all of his co-conspirators be as well. And there are a lot of them too.

They loaded up his title of nobility on the front, which they do when addressing especially stupid audiences.

Fauci is NOT a scientist. He's an unimpressive bureaucrat. What should have happened long ago with Covid is an advisory panel should have been formed, consisting of 5-10 virologists with zero connection to Wuhan or any of the NIH players, 3-5 vaccine experts, 3-5 immunologists, and 3 retired pharmaceutical scientists. Their input would properly supersede that of any government agency, and both the NIH and the CDC would have less input than this panel.

Of course Fauci likes Hillary. Two narcissistic peas in a pod.

I didn’t know that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was a member of the GOP.

The things you learn on the interwebs!

Brennan failed to ask Fauci how many patents he holds for vaccines and how much money each year that he rakes in from pushing those vaccines around the world. Also the extent of his holdings in big pharma companies. If Brennan wants to ask some good questions, she needs to read Robert F. Kennedy’s book which has a lot of the answers.

Fauci is getting away with what he said in 2012 with impunity.

“Scientists working in this field might say - as indeed I have said - that the benefits of such (gain of function) experiments and the resulting knowledge
outweigh the risks”

Anthony Fauci , 2012

Fauci is making daily statements for the news media to try and hide his stupidity. He is hiding from facing what he did with his attitude in 2012.

Your suggestion of an advisory board is excellent. That would have been a very rational way to oversee the FedMob’s response to Covid-19.

Trusting any Federal agency right now would be the epitome of irrationality.

“ What should have happened long ago with Covid is an advisory panel”

Had they done that, they probably wouldn’t have had to shut down the economy or scare people into mass mail in voting and probably would have at least given HCQ and Ivermectin a fair shot so the end result would have been a robust economy, trump would still be here and billionaire cronies would not have made even more billions off of population reducing vaccines

This leaves us with questions..

If trump knew about fauxchi and did nothing why?

If trump didn’t know why? Who withheld the information.

Fauxchi wasn’t the top of the funding food chain. Someone above him knew what was going on.

They can’t be linked to big pharma either

That is the reason for the current war on cheap and available drugs and forced experimental trials.
