>>> AN CONGRESSIONAL HEARING ON
THE PANDEMIC WAS THE SCENE OF A
HEATED EXCHANGE BETWEEN DR.
ANTHONY FAUCI AND CONGRESSMAN
JIM JORDAN WHEN THE OHIO
CONGRESSMAN PUSHED THE
INFECTIOUS DISEASE DOCTOR ON
WHEN AMERICANS WILL BE ABLE TO
RETURN TO PRE-PANDEMIC LIFE.
>> WE HAD 15 DAYS TO SLOW THE
SPREAD, TURNED INTO ONE YEAR OF
LOST LIBERTY.
WHAT METRICS, WHAT MEASURES,
WHAT HAS TO HAPPEN BEFORE
AMERICANS GET THEIR FREEDOMS
BACK?
>> MY MESSAGE, CONGRESSMAN
JORDAN, IS TO GET AS MANY PEOPLE
VACCINATED AS QUICKLY AS WE
POSSIBLY CAN, TO GET THE LEVEL
OF INFECTION IN THIS COUNTRY LOW
SO THAT IT IS NO LONGER A
THREAT.
THAT IS WHEN --
>> WHAT MEASURE, WHAT STANDARD,
WHAT OBJECTIVE OUTCOME DO WE
HAVE TO REACH BEFORE -- BEFORE
AMERICANS GET THEIR LIBERTY AND
FREEDOMS BACK?
>> YOU KNOW, YOU’RE INDICATING
LIBERTY AND FREEDOM, I LOOK AS
IT A PUBLIC HEALTH MEASURE TO
PREVENT PEOPLE FROM DYING AND
GOING TO THE HOSPITAL.
>> YOU DON’T THINK AMERICANS
LIBERTIES HAVE BEEN THREATENED
THE LAST YEAR, DR. FAUCI?
THEY’VE BEEN ASSAULTED.
THEIR LIBERTIES HAVE.
>> I DON’T LOOK AT THIS AS A
LIBERTY THING, CONGRESSMAN
JORDAN.
>> WELL, THAT’S OBVIOUS.
>> AS A PUBLIC HEALTH THING.
I DISAGREE WITH YOU.
>> WHEN WILL AMERICANS GET THEIR
FIRST AMENDMENT LIBERTIES BACK?
>> I DON’T THINK ANYTHING WAS
CENSURE BECAUSE THEY FELT THEY
COULDN’T DISAGREE WITH ME.
YOU’RE MAKING THIS A PERSONAL
THING AND IT ISN’T.
>> IT’S NOT A PERSONAL THING.
>> NO, YOU ARE!
THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU’RE
DOING.
WE HAVE ABOUT 60,000 INFECTIONS
A DAY, WHICH IS A VERY LARGE
RISK FOR A SURGE.
WE’RE NOT TALKING ABOUT
LIBERTIES, WE’RE TALKING ABOUT A
PANDEMIC THAT HAS KILLED 560,000
AMERICANS.
>> MR. CHAIRMAN, I DON’T WANT
YOU TO ANSWER MY QUESTION.
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WANT DR.
FAUCI TO ANSWER MY QUESTION.
>> YOUR TIME EXPIRED, SIR.
>> YOU NEED TO RESPECT THE CHAIR
AND SHUT YOUR MOUTH!
>> OKAY.
WELL, THAT HAPPENS ONCE IN A
WHILE.
>> SO RUDE!
>> WELL, YOU KNOW WHAT’S
INTERESTING IS, IT’S SO
PERSONAL.
AND IT IS PERSONAL.
>> IT WAS REALLY RUDE.
>> THEY HAVE LIED ABOUT DR.
FAUCI, THEY HAVE SPREAD
CONSPIRACY THEORIES ABOUT DR.
FAUCI.
THEY HAVE SAID THE MOST
PREPOSTEROUS THINGS.
IT IS PERSONAL.
THEY’RE TRYING TO ATTACK THE
MESSENGER, WHO HAS BEEN WARNING
THEM, WHILE THEY’VE BEEN LYING
THROUGH THEIR TEETH TO THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE, WHO HAS BEEN
WARNING THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE
COULD DIE.
AND A YEAR AGO, THEY KEPT
SAYING, OPEN THINGS UP,
EVERYTHING’S FINE, WHAT IS THIS?
NO WORSE THAN THE FLU.
NO WORSE -- OVER 550,000 PEOPLE
ARE DEAD.
AND THE LIES CONTINUE.
THE SCAPEGOATING STILL
CONTINUES.
NO PERSONAL LIBERTIES WERE TAKEN
AWAY.
THE SUPREME COURT HAS REVIEWED
CASES.
THE COURTS HAVE REVIEWED CASES.
IT’S JUST, IT’S SHEER IDIOCY
PLAYING FOR THE LOWEST COMMON
DENOMINATOR.
>> IS IT GETTING CLICKS BEING SO
RUDE?
>> CERTAINLY, LIES ABOUT -- LIES
ABOUT ANTHONY FAUCI HAVE ALWAYS
GOTTEN CLICKS.
CONSPIRACY THEORYS HAVE ALWAYS
GOTTEN CLICKS.
I’VE TALKED ABOUT A STUPID --
YOU HAVE TO BE A MORON TO
BELIEVE IT, BUT THERE ARE, I
GUESS, A LOT OF MORONS OUT
THERE.
SOMETHING CALLED PLANDEMMIC,
WHERE THEY GET SOMEBODY TO COME
IN JUST MAKES THINGS UP WHOLE
CLOTH, SUGGESTING HE KILLED
PEOPLE DURING THE AIDS EPIDEMIC.
IT’S ALL FILLED WITH LIES, AND
YET PEOPLE ARE STUPID ENOUGH TO
BELIEVE IT.
AND SO, JIM JORDAN PEDDLES THOSE
LIES.
AND PEDDLES THE SUGGEST THAT
ANTHONY FAUCI SOMEHOW IS THE
PROBLEM INSTEAD OF A CORONAVIRUS
THAT’S SPREAD ACROSS AMERICA AND
KILLED 550,000 PEOPLE.
YOU KNOW, THE THING IS, BEFORE
WE GET TO THE DOCTOR REALLY
QUICKLY, WILLIE, INTELLIGENT
PEOPLE, REALLY INTELLIGENT
PEOPLE WITH ADVANCED DEGREES, REALLY INTELLIGENT PEOPLE I HAVE
REALLY INTELLIGENT PEOPLE I HAVE
KNOWN MY ENTIRE LIFE WHO RUN
ACTUAL OPERATIONS ACTUALLY
BELIEVE THAT DOCTORS ARE LYING
ON DEATH CERTIFICATES.
AND PUTTING THAT SOMEBODY DIED
OF COVID, BECAUSE THEIR HOSPITAL
WOULD MAKE MORE MONEY.
AND YOU KNOW WHAT -- WAIT, WAIT,
YOU THINK A DOCTOR WOULD RISK
THEIR CAREER BY LYING ON A DEATH
CERTIFICATE?
YES.
THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT’S HAPPENING.
THIS IS -- THERE ARE PEOPLE
DYING OF THE FLU.
AND AGAIN, THESE AREN’T PEOPLE
STEPPING, YOU KNOW, OUT OF A
CAVE, CHEWING TOBACCO AND, LIKE,
HAVE NEVER GONE TO SCHOOL.
THAT’S ONE OF THE GREAT LIES OF
THIS TRUMP POPULISM, THAT IT’S
ALL A CERTAIN GROUP OF
UNEDUCATED, YOU KNOW, TEEMING
MASSES.
NO, NO.
A LOT OF THE PEOPLE THAT I HAVE
TO TALK TO EVERY DAY, THAT
BELIEVE THESE STUPID LIES,
THEY’RE REALLY INTELLIGENT.
THEY’RE REALLY WEALTHY.
AND THEY ARE -- THEY ARE IN A
CULT AND THEY CAN’T BREAK OUT OF
IT.
THEY CAN’T ADMIT THAT COVID WAS
MORE THAN THE FLU.
EVEN THOUGH SCIENCE AND MEDICINE
SHOWS COVID WAS MORE THAN THE
FLU.
AND DOCTORS DIDN’T LIE ABOUT
550,000 DEATHS, SO THEIR
HOSPITALS WOULD MAKE MORE MONEY.
>> AND YOU REMEMBER, THEN
PRESIDENT TRUMP PERPETUATED THAT
EXACT LIE THAT YOU JUST
DESCRIBED ABOUT DOCTORS.
AND WELL, THEY WEREN’T ALL COVID
DEATH, THE NUMBERS ARE INFLATED.
ALL OF THOSE THINGS THAT WE’VE
HEARD.
AND THE IDEA THAT DR. FAUCI, DR.
ANTHONY FAUCI IS SOMEHOW
ENJOYING THE SHUTDOWN OF
BUSINESSES, THAT HE’S SOMEHOW
PROFITING FROM THE BUSINESSSHUTD
BUSINESSES AND THE, QUOTE, LOSS
OF LIBERTY.
I WOULD REMIND MR. JORDAN THAT
MOST OF THAT YEAR WAS UNDER
PRESIDENT TRUMP AND IF HE HAD
TAKEN THIS MORE SERIOUSLY, LESS
LIBERTY WOULD HAVE BEEN LOST.
THEY’RE LOOKING FOR A BOGEYMAN.
THEY THINK THEY’VE FOUND ONE IN
DR. FAUCI.
BUT THE FACTS OF THE MATTER IS
THAT NEARLY 570,000 PEOPLE HAVE
DIED IN OUR COUNTRY.
570,000 PEOPLE.
NO ONE IS ENJOYING THIS.
NO ONE IS PROFITING FROM THIS.
EVERYONE WANTS IT TO BE OVER,
ESPECIALLY DR. FAUCI.
HE SAID HIS BEST ESTIMATE, BY
THE WAY, FOR A RETURN TO
NORMALCY WOULD BE WHEN NEW
INFECTIONS DROP TO ABOUT 10,000
A DAY AND EMPHASIZED THE
IMPORTANCE OF VACCINATIONS FIRST
AND FOREMOST.
THIS SUNDAY, NBC WILL BE AIRING
A SPECIAL, BY THE WAY, ABOUT
VACCINES TO SEPARATE FACT FROM
FICTION AND TO ENCOURAGE
AMERICANS TO GET A SHOT.
THE EVENT WILL FEATURE
APPEARANCES FROM PRESIDENT JOE
BIDEN ALONG WITH FORMER
PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA AND FIRST
LADY, MICHELLE OBAMA.
ACTOR MATTHEW McCONAUGHEY WILL
INTERVIEW DR. ANTHONY FAUCI.
