We all know that Republicans have two big targets for the investigations they wanna
launch.
Should they take back the house of representatives in November?
The first of course is hunter Biden, right?
For the next two years, if Republicans have the house, it's gonna be hunter Biden all
day, all night, all the time.
The other investigation that Republicans have just been itching to launch for a couple years
now is of course, an investigation and a Dr. Anthony Fauci.
And during an interview with news nation this week, Fauci was asked about that.
Like, Hey Republicans, they wanna investigate you.
What do you have to say about that?
And Fauci responded thusly.
I testified before Congress a little more than 250 times over the last 38 years, I have
no trouble testifying.
Wh when they say they're going to investigate everything about me, all the records are out
there.
Every one of my emails practically have been fo through the freedom of information act.
Uh, if they're going to investigate me, I'd like to ask, investigate me for what for telling
people to get vaccinated for telling people, to wear a mask for telling people to abide
by common sense, good public health practices.
Basically what Fauci is saying here is, look, if you wanna investigate me first, just tell
me why second, bring it on.
Like, what do I have to hide?
I've been in public service for 38 years, 250 times or more.
I've gone to Congress under oath and testified about this and that.
And the other thing.
So you wanna investigate me, go for it.
Just tell me why.
At least, you know, I, I at least deserve that courtesy a little bit and we all know
why Republicans think they wanna investigate Fauci.
Right?
We have Republicans that literally blame him for funding, a lab that somehow created COVID
19.
You know, the lab leak theory, conspiracy theory, really, uh, they think he is somehow
tied into that.
They wanna investigate him because maybe he's making a ton of money off these COVID treatments.
And again, all of this is already publicly available.
You don't need to investigate him.
You just need an internet connection in Google and you can find it.
It's not hard.
I've looked all of this.
So-called evidence of Fauci profiteering off these drugs.
It's simply doesn't materialize.
Are there connections that he has to, you know, some of these, uh, uh, uh, developments
of drugs absolutely.
Does that in any way, tarnish what he's done at that agency?
Absolutely not.
Nobody's been able to make that connection because it's simply, as far as I've been able
to tell doesn't exist, but more importantly, Fauci is not a villain in the pandemic.
He's not a hero either.
He's just a guy trying to do a job based on the information that was available to him
at the time.
You know, we shouldn't put him up on a pedestal,
But we also shouldn't put him under those interrogations spotlights.
He's an old man that was doing a job, a job that he has done for 38 years.
And he's done a fairly decent job of it over the years.
He's had some mistakes, absolutely who hasn't, but if they wanna investigate 'em, he's not
scared.
And if he had something to hide, I imagine he would be a little scared, but the fact
that he's not kind of tells me, he knows Republicans, aren't gonna find anything.
All they're gonna do is waste his time, waste our time and waste millions of dollars in
tax dollars.
But at the end of the day, if it means finally shutting them up about what Fauci may or may
not have done, then I support it too, because I would love nothing more than to move on
and not have to mention Fauci anymore.
That would be great.
Not because I hate Fauci, but because I'm sick and tired of it.
If there was a real scandal there, if there was, I would think any of the hundreds of
investigative journalists on the right would've uncovered it by now, the fact that none of
them have, even though, as Fauci said, all of his stuff has been fo kind of tells me
that this is like so many other things.
Republicans are pushing another giant, nothing burger.
