Republican Sen. Rand Paul released more than a thousand pages of journal entries from Dr. Anthony Fauci, teeing up what is likely to be a contentious hearing on Wednesday.
Sen. Rand Paul has released a tranche of Dr. Anthony Fauci's diary entries from the COVID-19 pandemic. Fauci is set to appear before a Senate committee Wednesday on the origins of the coronavirus.
Former chief White House medical adviser Anthony Fauci was keenly aware of the media’s interest in him early on in the COVID-19 pandemic, and considered some of the attention “flattering,” according to diary entries released by Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.). Over the weekend, Paul published more than a thousand pages of Fauci’s diary entries as…
President Donald Trump doesn't seem to have much sway in the negotiations to end the war against Iran, but there is someone else who may hold the key, insiders revealed on Monday. Axios reported, citing multiple anonymous White House officials, that Iranian officials seem more afraid of the U.S. Treasury than of the Department of Defense. The insiders argued that Iranians are more afraid of sanctions now because of the country's economic conditions. "The Iranians want to stop being bombed, and they want money," a senior administration official told the outlet. "But that's almost in reverse order. They really want the money first."That seems to give Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent significant leverage over how the war negotiations proceed, according to the officials. "They're in danger of runs on banks. There are gasoline shortages in this giant oil-rich country," one official told Axios. "They're more scared of Treasury than the War Department.""The president has a win-win optionality. The U.S. is capable of prosecuting this militarily to the fullest extent. And the U.S. is capable of exerting economic sanctions that cripple Iran," another official said.
Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky.) is letting Dr. Anthony Fauci speak for himself through a massive collection of "diary" entries during the peak years of the COVID pandemic — and the results have been potentially disastrous for Fauci's apparently carefully curated public image and for some of his associates. And those associates, it appears, extend well into the fourth estate. 'Jake clearly believes that Trump is totally nuts.'Blaze News previously reported on the damning new documents exposing Fauci as an apparent fame-obsessed megalomaniac.However, a name from the mainstream media also continued to appear in the more than 1,100 pages of documents: CNN anchor Jake Tapper."Had dinner at my home with Jake and Jennifer Tapper. Relaxed, good time. Jake clearly believes that Trump is totally nuts," reads an entry dated October 23, 2020.RELATED: Diaries expose Fauci obsessing over his own fame during height of COVID as millions died Jamie McCarthy/Getty ImagesA review of the documents revealed a disturbing pattern of cooperation between Fauci and Tapper. For example, Fauci wrote a similar entry dated July 1, 2020, in which he explicitly describes their association as a "friendship.""Had dinner over Jake Tapper and Jen Tapper's home in D.C. Terrific couple. Friendship building," Fauci wrote, according to the documents released by Sen. Paul. And, of course, as is the nature of many friendships in politics, this friendship apparently served some utility during the pandemic. In the April 13, 2020, entry, Fauci recorded that he had a phone call with Jake Tapper. He wrote that "Jake wanted to make sure the interview did not cause me any problems." Fauci had appeared on Jake Tapper's show, "State of the Union," the day before. Almost exactly a month later, on May 14, 2020, Fauci recorded that there was some "confusion" related to vaccines and school closure. With regard to his messaging in the media, Fauci wrote, "Chris Cuomo and Jake Tapper are trying to clarify this in my defense on their shows." In another surprising entry, on July 26, 2020, Fauci appears to say that he fed questions to Jake Tapper to correct the narrative about testing as COVID deaths spiked. The entry is worth quoting at some length: 5th Day in a row for 1000 deaths/day. Brett Giroir on Tapper (State of the Union) talking bulls**t about testing with Jake pressing him. I gave Jake some questions to ask him. Mark Meadows on This Week with George Stephanopoulos saying that public health measures are not working and we will have to rely on interventions such as vaccines and therapeutics. This is his way of backing out of a failure and trying to get an “October Surprise.” Heads up for him trying to push an early approval of vaccine or even influencing the decision about convalescent sera, which actually do not look too good right now.Fauci is scheduled to give testimony before the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs on Wednesday morning. CNN declined to provide a comment to Blaze News. Representatives for Jake Tapper likewise declined to comment. Like Blaze News?

In preparation for Anthony Fauci’s subpoenaed Senate testimony on COVID origins and response set to begin this coming Wednesday, Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) released portions of the embattled doctor’s personal diaries and related emails/documents, highlighting his private doubts about a natural origin, discussions of deleting records, and personal reflections on fame.On today’s episode of “The Glenn Beck Program,” Glenn dove into the diaries of the “egomaniac monster” and shared what he believes will happen in the upcoming hearing. Glenn’s head writer and researcher Jason Buttrill begins by reading some of the most jaw-dropping quotes from Fauci’s diary, starting with his admission that the virus, contrary to what the public was told, was not of natural origin. “On January 26, 2020, Fauci writes in his diary, ‘Now, we know the market was not the source ... it was the amplifier,”’ Jason reads, recalling how “anyone that disagreed with natural origin was [called] an idiot and ... shamed.”“A week later, he convenes a call with 12 scientists. You want to know how many of them thought that it was natural origin spillover from animals? Out of those 12, only two,” he adds, noting how despite the heavy skepticism, “the consensus ... from all the academic papers was that no, this is natural origin.”Glenn and Jason both speculate that Fauci’s public insistence on a natural origin was self-protective because U.S. funds (under his watch) had gone to the very type of research that could have caused a lab leak in Wuhan.“We had a law that said you can't do [gain of function research]. ... Come or hell or high water, he would find a way to do it, and then he covered it all up,” says Glenn, “so the guy who is literally, I believe, responsible for millions of dead ... knew it, and he just felt it was too important to let the law stop them, so he found a way around it.”But perhaps the most shocking entries from Fauci’s diary highlight his inflated ego despite the growing global death toll.According to the released files, at one point Fauci wrote, “One person said that Tyra Banks was sexy, but that I was even more sexy than she was.”“Another 1,200 dead this morning ... but on the bright side, I'm the sexiest man alive,” Glenn mocks. “I mean, it’s just horrible.”Jason follows with another cringeworthy entry: “Press still hot and heavy about me. Multiple stories per day directly or indirectly involving me.”Glenn highlights another entry where Fauci wrote about being invited to participate in the reality show “Dancing with the Stars.”“Can you maybe pay attention to the millions that are dying?” he scoffs.Glenn and Jason then recall the InStyle magazine cover from the magazine’s September 2020 issue, featuring Fauci sitting by a pool, wearing sunglasses and a smug look on his face.“It's absolutely grotesque,” says Glenn.“And now reading these diaries and knowing how infatuated he was with all the attention and fame,” Jason sighs.Glenn notes that since Biden’s broad pardon already shields Fauci from any prosecution for past actions or false statements, he cannot be charged for what he did or said years ago. However, if he is asked the same questions again this week and simply repeats his old answers — now contradicted by new evidence — that would constitute a brand-new false statement under oath, which the pardon does not cover.Glenn speculates that Fauci’s enormous ego will not allow him to admit he previously lied (even though such an admission would be legally safe under the pardon), leaving him only one practical option: “plead the Fifth.”“If he pleads the fifth, we know he was lying,” he says.To hear more, watch the video above.Want more from Glenn Beck?To enjoy more of Glenn’s masterful storytelling, thought-provoking analysis, and uncanny ability to make sense of the chaos, subscribe to BlazeTV — the largest multi-platform network of voices who love America, defend the Constitution, and live the American dream.
