RON HART: We Took the Shot, Fauci Takes the Fifth

It has been a big week for Kentucky politicians. Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) is on watch. Out of his hospital room this weekend came his doctor, then his priest, and then a taxidermist.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the poster boy for shameful government arrogance and incompetence, got subpoenaed to appear Wednesday before the Senate committee led by Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul.

Dr. Rand Paul and Kentucky Republican Rep. Thomas Massie, along with all my columns over the years, have been onto the fraud that is Anthony Fauci from the jump.

Rand and Massie reamed Fauci. The fact that Kentucky’s state abbreviation is KY did not make this any less painful for Fauci.

Fauci deserves all the condemnation he is experiencing. He leaves behind a legacy of destruction, bankrupt businesses, undereducated children, empowered teachers’ unions, arrogance, and ruined scientists who questioned him. Most damaging, he has undermined confidence in our public health agencies. He was also a malleable shill for Big Pharma, lining his pockets along the way.

It turns out that the short, egotistic, lifelong bureaucrat Fauci kept a diary that Rand Paul got. Fauci, of course, was writing a book about his power to control a nation. I suggest that he name it Mein Cough.

If you pushed back on his COVID dogma, you were cancelled and leftist media went after you. If you did not get all his mandated, unproven COVID shots, you could not travel and would lose your job. Killing our freedoms in 2021 only took one little prick.

Fauci’s private COVID diaries expose his obsession with his fame, lockdowns and the fact that he knew the leak came from the Wuhan Lab and not the wet market bats that he maintained it did, until the end. He knew of the gain of function research the lab was doing, perhaps even funding it, which likely led to COVID. Gain of function is like the 1966 Ford Mustang; Ford kept improving it until it was no good anymore.

Fauci was the favorite of Biden and the Dems. He resigned in shame during Biden’s reign and was replaced with a less virulent variation of himself. Then Biden pardoned him, and then he took the Fifth on Wednesday. All innocent people get a preemptive pardon and take the Fifth. Fauci was right about one thing: the COVID shot eventually provided someone full immunity.

The USA had the worst outcomes of any nation. 3,000 in 1 million died, all the while having the most Draconian shutdowns. No American can honestly say today he wished he had gotten the shot.

In his diary, we find out that six months after Fauci ceremoniously got the COVID shot on TV, he had a pulmonary infarction, a side effect of the COVID-19 vaccine. He never told us, and he kept pushing “the jab” on us.

I wrote extensively about Fauci and the government overreach during the COVID epidemic. I said that the only thing I liked about that period was that it was illegal for anyone to come near me. Not to keep score, but during that period, 2020 to 2024, conspiracy theorists led legacy media, 25 to 0. (RELATED: Rand Paul Kicks Out Fauci’s Lawyer After He Repeatedly Disrupts Hearing)

Biden spoke to us but did not have to run for president, which would then reveal his fragilities. With the rushed mail-in ballots, he miraculously got millions more votes than any president before or after. All his campaign ads were shot in the basement, like Hitler and the Romanovs. And the Dems got two intractable Georgia Senate seats.

None of COVID made sense. Dr. Morens, Fauci’s advisor, admitted that social distancing was just made up with no scientific basis. I asked at the time: Were we to believe that COVID came all the way from China, but couldn’t make it the last 6 feet?

Fauci’s infectious bat tale shut down churches, restaurants, and schools. We couldn’t go outside. It took BLM and the George Floyd riots for Democrats to say it was OK to go out and get some exercise and some fresh air.

We have had Monkey Pox, Ebola and tainted lettuce outbreaks since. Fauci and the Dems have solutions for all of these, but they will involve mail-in ballots in the upcoming midterm elections. We have come near a civil war, where Dems fight with mail-in ballots and the GOP fights with hot blonde news anchors.
