Anthony Fauci, former chief of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases now is on a tax-funded pension of hundreds of thousands of dollars a year.
But before his retirement he was a top COVID adviser to Joe Biden, and it was his pronouncements that states, local governments and even corporations used to shut down America’s economy, force employees to accept injurious shots or lose their jobs and deprive children of education.
And President Donald Trump is on record confirming that he warned Biden about Fauci’s failings, but was ignored.
He said, “Many more people died of Covid under the Biden Administration than under the Trump Administration. ‘Operation Warp Speed’ was a SPECTACULAR SUCCESS, in fact, many say, one of the most successful things ever done by an American President. I overrode Fauci on this. His ideas were CRAZY! Also, I said from the beginning that the Virus came from the Wuhan Laboratory in China. Fauci strongly disagreed, always trying to protect China.
“I Inherited Fauci, who was there since the 1980’s, but with each passing day, relied less and less on him. He made too many bad calls, like on MASKS. Remember at the beginning he was an anti-masker. He then switched to a super-masker. In any event I didn’t let him shut the Country down, although he wanted to. I went the Federalist way, and let the governors decide. The Republican governors did a much better job than the Dumocrats.
“Fauci was largely taken out of play, and then along came Sleepy Joe Biden, who made Fauci a ‘King!’ I called Biden to tell him Fauci was no good, either didn’t have a clue, or was dishonest. The call was well received, but sadly, not acted on. Biden went on to give Fauci vast destructive power. The rest is history!”
Trump’s comments came just as Fauci was being called to answer questions by a Senate committee. He appeared, but declined to answer questions, citing his 5th Amendment right against self-incrimination even though he holds a Joe Biden pardon for the time period in question.
The Senate soon will consider whether to hold Fauci in contempt.
Fauci earlier said Trump was following his advice and Trump had not overruled him on COVID-19 agenda decisions.
