Doctor Anthony Fauci had a lot to say in his 1100 page diary that has now been released to the public. Yes, you heard that right. 1100 pages of personal feelings and gloating anecdotes by a grown man. He's 85 years old now, by the way, a doctor, mind you, during the height of COVID the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, gushing in his diary isn't necessarily the problem. The problem is the content of what he was gushing about. Let's start here. Dr. Anthony Fauci lied. He lied to the American public about coronavirus. He knowingly lied. He knowingly lied about the vaccine and its effectiveness. He knowingly lied about social distancing, about mask. He lied about natural immunity. He lied about transmission. And his diary proves that he knew he was lying. And Joe Biden, the former President of the United States, he knew that Anthony Fauci was lying. To his pardon proves that he knew he was lying. The diaries, they show a very clear pattern of Fauci saying one thing privately and saying another thing publicly. His own contemporaneous writings undercut the official narrative that he helped shape on the origin of the virus, the severity of the virus, the necessity and the scale of lockdowns and school closures. This was not just mere evolution of science, but it was delivered deliberate public messaging that diverge from what he was actually recording in his cutesy little pink diary privately at the time. These aren't harmless lies, by the way. These are lies that have caused death. In my eyes, Fauci is a murderer. That's how I view him. I really mean that. And again, I think Joe Biden thinks it too. Or at least the auto pin thinks it. Seriously, ask yourself this. Why would Joe Biden pardon Fauci if he was not a criminal who should be locked up for his lies and his negligence and his greed that killed innocent Americans? Fauci's official public narrative caused great economic damage. It caused loss of trust in public health. And I think we see that especially with my generation. Parents who are now having kids are realizing that they can question vaccines, especially when it comes to what they're putting in their child, their newborn minutes after they're born. That might be one of the only good things to actually come from the whole trust the science message that was pushed. And do I need to remind you that the same people saying trust the science don't know what a woman is? Let's go through just a few of the lies that were exposed in Fauci's diary starting with school closures and lockdowns. Well, in March of 2020, in his diary entry, Fauci recorded that he convinced. He used the word convinced New York City mayor to close New York City schools. Then he advised for closing bars and restaurants and later moving towards shelter in place stay in home orders. But that's not what he said publicly though in 20, he said that he did not. He did not. He had nothing to do with school closures or lockdowns. He didn't recommend such a thing. Who would do that? He also lied about case fatality rate. In February of 2020, Fauci privately estimated a much lower case fatality rate around 0.2 to 0.3%, saying that it was basically just a really bad flu. Well, publicly he reported much higher numbers and said that Covid was 10 times more deadly than the flu. I could keep going through the lies publicly saying that it's a total conspiracy to believe that this virus started China in a lab and was deliberately released to the public, but privately acknowledging it actually could be a possibility. So the question becomes why, right? Why did Dr. Fauci have no problem pedaling panic publicly when he knew that that wasn't the response that was warranted? I think any logical person could come up with a couple answers. But his diary reveals exactly why he kept going on TV screens and posing for magazine covers. He's an irresponsible egomaniac who got high off of fame and attention. This was in 2020, he says, big front page article about me. Appeared in the Washington Post. Very flattering. The situation with my national and international fame is explosive and really unimaginable. It's not hyperbole to say that today I'm the most famous and talked about person in the country and one of the most recognizable people in the world. He says here countless profiles on me in multiple media. I can't even read all the things written about me. President seems to be enamored by me, even though I'm taking away his spotlight from him. My White House press conference picked up by many outlets, many print profiles and features on me too numerous to count. Press is going wild with me. Front page in Washington Post yesterday, an op ed by Maureen Dowd and New York Times today about me and my relationship with the president. Profile by Peter Nicholas on me in the Atlantic. The press is hot and heavy about me. Dear diary, one person said that Tyra, Tyra Banks was sexy, but that I was even more sexy than she was. Is it obvious to you yet that he wanted to be a celebrity. Or do you need me to keep going? One more for you before I quite literally throw up. This one says, dear diary, I had a great call with Barbra Streisand. I told her that I work listening to her songs on Alexa. She really didn't know what Alexa was. I accidentally butt called her because who doesn't do that? Who doesn't accidentally but call Barbra Streisand actually, but called her later in the evening, I brought the phone over to to Alexa and asked her to play songs by Barbra Streisand. When the song came on loud and clear, she started laughing and absolutely loved it. Is it obvious to you yet that Fauci did not care that Americans had to suffer in order for him to achieve his celebrity status? He didn't care that your grandparents had to die alone in a nursing home or in a hospital with no one by their bedside for him to go on tv. He did not care that your kids didn't get to enroll in kindergarten if it meant another glowing piece about him in the New York Times. Clearly, this is a man with a lot to say. Over 1100 pages of things to say Diary worthy things to say. So color me shocked that he took his time in front of Congress, one of the biggest stages in the world, to plead the fifth. Now, I know in the United States we have the ability and the freedoms to plead the fifth, use our fifth amendment rights. And I also know that in our justice system, we recognize innocent until proven guilty. I think those are good things. Also important to note that I'm no legal mind. I'm just an American, an American citizen who suffered at the hands of Fauci. But this sort of silence is damning. You spend years telling Americans, the world, quite frankly, that you are the science. And then we just had to watch that same man refuse to answer basic questions about the science. He couldn't even answer the most basic questions, like what day of the week is it? Watch this.

You may have been a good public servant at one time? I don't know. But I can tell you from reading your emails now, from looking at what you did, how you used your employees. Somewhere along the line, it became all about you. You became a narcissist and a megalomaniac and a liar. And you've lied to the American people and you've lied to this body.

Thank you.

See terms you Senator Hawley, for saying what so many of us have been thinking for years. As far as I'm concerned, our lives were upended by this man. Americans were locked in their homes, they lost their job. They missed out on funerals and weddings. They had to watch a loved one again die alone while Fauci got awards and kickbacks. And the worst part, I think, is that they got away with it for so long because people call it naivety. I don't think it's naive to trust the health care professionals. After all, they're the ones who went to school to study these things, communicate these things. This isn't just basic knowledge that people have on infectious diseases. We should be able to trust people like Dr. Fauci who was operating under President Trump, by the way. You want to believe that person, but for so long they got away with it because we trusted them. And the people who did question Fauci and his ilk, we were terrified to say it out loud because we didn't want to be seen as this like unvaccinated public nuisance, this selfish public nuisance who was putting everyone else health at risk for their own selfishness. But now we have receipts and it's on the record that Dr. Anthony Fauci is a liar at best and a murderer who committed crimes against humanity at worst.
