Senator Rand Paul put Fauci on record numerous times. The diary is the straw breaking Fauci's back. Don't know if they will do anything with him, but as far as Corona History goes, Fauci is cooked.

Read it and weep, "Dr." Rand Paul and Storm Trooper Storing:

ME: Fauci's diary

Google AI: Dr. Anthony Fauci's personal pandemic-era diaries—spanning over a thousand pages from December 2019 to December 2022—were publicly released by Senator Rand Paul ahead of a contentious Senate hearing. The journals cover internal deliberations on COVID-19 origins, interactions with the Trump administration, and shifting public health guidance.

Key Revelations and Content

Pandemic Origins: Early February 2020 entries show Fauci noting that several scientists on a conference call discussed the possibility of deliberate or lab-based genetic insertion. Fact-checkers and analysts noted that while private notes showed active deliberation, his public statements at the time broadly favored natural zoonotic spillover while acknowledging ongoing scientific uncertainty.

Trump Administration Dynamics: The notes detail Fauci's complex professional relationship with President Donald Trump, including White House clashes over widespread testing protocols and conflicting views on reopening schools.

Masks and Schools: Private reflections reveal internal frustrations over early messaging, such as noting on March 31, 2020, that officials "probably were too strong in saying masks do not work," alongside consistent private stances prioritizing the safe reopening of schools dependent on local community infection levels.

Controversy and Hearings: The release triggered high-profile political fallout and subsequent congressional testimony where Fauci faced intense questioning from the Senate Homeland Security Committee led by Rand Paul.

ME: What are his supporters saying?

Google AI: Supporters and independent fact-checkers argue that Dr. Anthony Fauci’s personal diaries reveal a dedicated public servant navigating a rapidly evolving, unprecedented crisis. Following the release of the documents by Senator Rand Paul, defenders have mobilized around several key points:

Alignment of Stances

Consistent public health messaging: Independent analyses from outlets like PolitiFact demonstrate that Fauci’s private thoughts largely aligned with his public guidance.

Real-time scientific deliberation: Supporters emphasize that the notes reflect a scientist analyzing new data as it broke, rather than a hidden agenda.

Solid Scientific Backing

Defense by peers: More than 150 prominent scientists signed a public statement defending Fauci.

Lack of wrongdoing: His scientific peers assert there is no credible evidence of misconduct or intentional deception in the records.

Political Motivation & Privacy Claims

"Attack on science": Democratic lawmakers and medical advocates view the targeted leaks as a politically motivated attack on public health infrastructure.

Privacy violation: Supporters slam the extraction of private personal logs from government servers by Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as an egregious overreach.

Legal defense: To counter building state and federal inquiries, his legal team launched an independent Legal Defense Fund Trust completely isolated from Fauci's personal control.

Don't know if they will do anything with him...

the Senate can grant ‘use immunity’ and compel testimony. Jonathan Turley acknowledged the option. So did national security attorney Bradley Moss, who then added a cynical kicker: "I doubt they will do so, because these hearings aren't about getting facts."

Fauci isn't going to face criminal prosecution because he can simply take the Fifth Amendment and refuse to answer any questions. The only way to hold him accountable is to grant him immunity which strips away his right to plead the Fifth and force him to answer questions, If he were to lie under oath after being granted the immunity, he could be prosecuted for perjury. I doubt he would be that dumb. The same lawyers who told him to take the Fifth in response to every question asked by the senators would tell him to tell the absolute truth because he couldn't be prosecuted for anything he said as long as it was truthful. Fauci wouldn't face criminal charges, but he would be exposed for the lies he told during the pandemic and for his awful recommendations that did the country irreparable harm. That is the best we can hope for at that point.

There is nothing in the diary showing a lie. What is the evidence that he knowingly uttered a falsehood?
