'No words': Laura Ingraham's brother tells off sister over 'boorish' behavior at hearing
Source: Raw Story · Bias: Far Left
Summary
Curtis Ingraham said he was left with "no more words" after his sister, Fox News host Laura Ingraham, was caught making faces behind Anthony Fauci at a Senate hearing.The hearing took place Wednesday before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, chaired by Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), who had subpoenaed Fauci to appear. CNN reported Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment — his constitutional right to refuse to answer questions — more than 100 times.Laura Ingraham, a longtime Fauci critic, was seated directly behind him. She was visible over his shoulder throughout, rolling her eyes, shaking her head, and making faces at the witness table.The Daily Show caught it first, posting a supercut that drew 1.2 million views."Watching Laura Ingraham make faces at Fauci's hearing while listening to Laura Ingraham complain about other people making faces," the show wrote on X.The clip paired footage of Laura Ingraham's expressions with her own prior broadcasts, playing her voice over her own face."Her little charade for the cameras isn't just an example of conduct that is boorish and rude, arrogant and rude, always performing for the cameras," Laura Ingraham's voice said as the footage rolled.Another clip showed her taking a selfie at the hearing — as audio of her mocking others for doing the same played over it."There simply are no more words!" Curtis Ingraham, a Northern California teacher, wrote on X, linking to coverage of the clip."Laura, shouldn't you be focused on those Epstein files instead of lurking behind @Dr_AnthonyFauci hoping for spin-worthy tidbits?!" he joked.Days before the hearing, the committee had released more than 1,100 pages of what it described as Fauci's personal diary, which showed Fauci had lumped Laura Ingraham in with "all of the stooges" at Fox News. She showed up to the hearing anyway — and kept swinging after it."What you saw from Fauci was a little man with a big ego and… deeply insecure," she told her audience on her Fox News program that evening."Umm, if my memory serves me correctly, Laura, weren't you one of the early birds to receive the Covid vaccine that @Dr_AnthonyFauci helped spearhead?!" Curtis Ingraham wrote on X the next day.The tension between the siblings is not new. In 2018, Curtis Ingraham gave a blunt assessment of his sister to The Daily Beast."I think she's a monster," he said. "She's very smart, she's well spoken, but her emotional heart is just kind of dead. And you see it in her face when you see her on TV. She's ready to destroy."At the time, Laura Ingraham pushed back, calling the posts "false and hurtful.""Although we've been estranged from him for many years, we love our brother and miss him very much," she said.The Hill reported the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee has scheduled a vote next week on whether to hold Fauci in contempt of Congress for refusing to testify.
