House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) said on Sunday that coronavirus spokesman Dr. Anthony Fauci “needs to go” after newly released emails showed his changing responses to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“The American people don’t have trust in Dr. Fauci,” McCarthy told the Breitbart News Saturday radio show. “Let’s find a person we can trust. Take politics aside, I mean we’re talking about American lives here.”
He’s not the only one. Florida Republican Sen. Marco Rubio wrote, “It doesn’t take an overactive imagination to grasp human infallibility, or to wonder why a coronavirus pandemic might first break out in exactly the same city that hosted a laboratory specifically studying this class of viruses.”
Rubio added, “Some scientists were cautious to remain open to a range of possibilities, but others, like Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, dismissed the idea that the virus could have come from a lab. It was a massive failure in judgment for a prominent public health official.”
The growing calls for Fauci’s firing or resignation follow numerous emails released under a Freedom of Information Act that revealed contradictions in the doctor’s pandemic response.
“The typical mask you buy in the drug store is not really effective in keeping out [the] virus, which is small enough to pass through the material,” he wrote in one email, according to Fox News. “It might, however, provide some slight benefit in keep[ing] out gross droplets if someone coughs or sneezes on you. I do not recommend that you wear a mask.”
Many documented contradictions to Fauci’s COVID-19 advice have been made. Another example includes his opening pitch at a Major League Baseball game where he was photographed maskless with others in an stadium where the game was played without fans.
Overall, the nation has grown weary of the nation’s coronavirus expert’s advice. As South Dakota GOP Gov. Kristi Noem said, “Fauci is wrong a lot.”
An interesting discovery can be made looking at open versus closed states during the pandemic. Texas opened its state months earlier than New York. However, Texas COVID-19 cases continued to drop faster that the Empire State. The social distancing and mask mandates appeared to make little difference in the overall numbers of cases.
Some conservative states that rolled back restrictions thrived during the pandemic, in strong contrast with Fauci’s warnings. Florida’s economy thrived after its early reopening, while blue states like Michigan remained closed for schools and businesses for more than a year.
Americans are now seeing more of the evidence and all roads lead to Fauci hitting the road. Trust is long gone when the same guy giving the advice is involved in the Wuhan lab in mysterious ways the nation is still discovering.
We need leaders we can trust when we face a pandemic, and Fauci isn’t the person.
Great to hear people call for firing Fauci. The story is old news to some of us. Fauci’s connections and involvement are well documented by numerous authors/researchers (McCullough, Zelenko, Breggin) and he should not be allowed to resign and collect pension. Fauci also squashed the use of HCQ which could have saved many people who died. (check out America’s Frontline Doctors) Fauci should be arrested and the CCP should pay reparations for what was done.
Regarding this article, why are you taking quotes from Marco Rubio? He is seizing the opportunity to get press on this and other hot topics just because he’s running for re-election soon. He doesn’t care about the people and does not take action on these issues, just manages to get his name and comments in the news. I am voting for Luis Miguel, a real America First candidate.
You are 100% correct Patti T.
Our Federal Government has been taken over by the democrats and deep state on world order demons. Fuci is just one tool the Fed’s have against the American citizens. The Fed’s use the FIB, CIA, MIA WHO, EED, NAACP, LGB, CAPITAL POLICE, HOUSE GUARDS,HOME GUARDS, STATE @ FEDERAL POLICE, FEDERAL POSTAL SERVICE AND POSTAL GUARDS, GATE KEEPERS IN ALL STATES, SPYING ON OUR CITIZENS, PHONE LINE, BASE PHONE RECORDER, TV, COMPUTERS, CELL PHONES USE RELAY TOWERS, THE INTERNATIONAL SPY CENTER IN THE UNITED STATES, SATIALITES SPY ON U.S. CITIZENS AND MILLION MORE, THEIR SYNIGODS ARE ALREADY BUILT IF U DON’T CONFORM TO THEIR MIND SET U WILL BE DRAGGED TO THIS TIMPLE AND BRAIN WASHED OR KILLED. Look for the two witness for Heaven to appear on Earth Mosses and Elisa will speak for 1,260 days and the devil will have them killed they will lay in the street for 3 and a half days and they will rise up to Heaven and Jesus will be coming down from Heaven and all HEADS will bow to Jesus Christ Our Lord. These goats, demons, antichrist, and antipas will know long rule over Gods people. Amen
They are not going to fire Fauci. That’s just talk. He is doing exactly what Biden and the Democrats want him to do. He always has. He is just like Biden. Doesn’t have a clue what he is doing so they tell him what to do and say, just like they do Biden. He says one thing one day, they tell him to say something different the next day. He doesn’t know what he is talking about, so he says what they tell him to. No politician is going to do anything against another politician except rant and rave, They are afraid they will be investigated too and they don’t want the public to see how corrupt they are, they might not get re-elected. That’s their whole agenda. Nothing else matters to a politician. The people, the country or anything else.
Politically speaking, Fauci is, or should be, considered “dead meat.” The little weasel is incorrigible beyond redemption!
