And we have the kids too. Harris, AOC, Adam Schiff, the Psaki Bomb, and so on.
It is so damn nice to have grown ups back in charge.

(16,984 posts)At the same time that they're fighting vaccination and mask mandates, the Republicans are going after a public servant who has not only worked for decades to better lives and also to save them but has been willing to talk to his critics. It's shocking to see this in a pandemic, when the focus should be on working together to take whatever reasonable decisions will protect and save human beings.

(1,950 posts)But OTOH, it infuriates me how he is disparaged, disrespected, and pilloried in the media by the know-nothing assholes on the right.
Dr. Anthony Fauci has served with distinction under every U.S. president as an advisor since the Reagan administration. He was awarded the Medal of Freedom by George W, Bush in 2008.
Thank you, Dr. Fauci for your dedication to this country and for caring about your fellow citizens.

(790 posts)When the Former Guy was spouting disinfectant and sunlight, Dr. Fauci was a ray of common sense and science. I often quote Dr. Fauci in my posts regarding Covid. He is a God-send blessing.
Prof. Toru Tanaka
(1,950 posts)He has a heart and he cares about us. And I know the Biden administration appreciates his efforts.

(8,709 posts)And fuck Rand Paul, Bang Bang Bobert and Marginal Trailer Queen, with Honey Locust branches, thorns included. The investigatin needs to be on those two female idiots for conspiring with Nazis and ole Randys trip to Moscow after his boys went July 4th. I am sure they care less now, but one Day History books Must show they attacked a world Hero, along with All our True History of Racist murder. Fauchi is an amazing man, saving thousands while being hammered by idiots like those three. And Fux.
Botany
(70,483 posts)... that now lets people with HIV not die from AIDS, worked on the zeki and ebola virus,
chief medical advisor to the President, head of NIH, and from a friend who has a relative
who works in the sciences in France and knows Dr. Fauci personally told me that he is a
very nice guy too.
The man needs the nobel prize.

(11,587 posts)Dr. Fauci is a national treasure.
Peppertoo
(435 posts)He is also not the head of the NIH. Francis Collins holds that job. Fauci is head of NIAID, which is part of NIH.
Botany
(70,483 posts).... scientist took credit for it and Fauci was fine with that because he said something like the
important thing is that it had been discovered.
Peppertoo
(435 posts)but he did not discover the virus.

Hopefully those guys are at least grabbing the 10 min power naps after lunch because if they aren't that kind of energy all day is just ... I couldn't do it, that's for sure.

(81,194 posts)Then he probably couldnt be a Republican. Because Republicans dont want to help people. They dont want to help ANYBODY (but their own not-so-sweet selves).
And they tend not to be interested in science or facts, either. Only interested in the furtherance of an agenda.
Loge23
(3,922 posts)The idiots who have demonized a person who has literally dedicated his life to public health.
Hillary's pronouncement of "deplorables" has been made moot by the deplorables' ever-increasing efforts to out-deplorable themselves.
FoxNewsSucks
(10,429 posts)that he's a liar who doesn't know what he's talking about. I thank Fauci greatly for that too.
