I called Dr. Anthony Fauci “the nation’s most dangerous sociopath” in March 2020. I’ve been known to get a few things wrong from time to time, but I was Chris Kyle-accurate when discussing the man who would become one of the great villains of modern America. Fauci was a test, and it is important to remember who rose to the occasion as dystopian authoritarianism swept the nation and who failed spectacularly. Fauci’s diary was released by Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) in preparation for the disgraced doctor’s appearance before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee on Wednesday. It reveals an egomaniacal, entitled, fame-obsessed monster of a man who lied shamelessly and indiscriminately to the people. Fauci was obsessed with fame and the praise he received from celebrities and Democrats. He wined and dined with liberal journalists and knew as early as January 2020 that his crafted “wet market” theory that he and the medical establishment pushed for years was complete nonsense. Very few elected officials stood up for their constituents in the face of the most destructive government overreach in generations. Govs. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) and Brian Kemp (R-GA) reversed course on COVID-19 lockdowns almost immediately, drawing the ire of Fauci and the Trump White House. “We will never do any lockdowns again. … Lockdowns do not work. They cause immense collateral damage, destroy livelihoods, and strip away basic American freedoms,” DeSantis said.
