The damage caused by Dr. Anthony Fauci’s COVID-19 lies is immeasurable: more than $2 trillion lost in economic output during the lockdowns, trillions more lost in future earnings of displaced workers, and still trillions in education lost due to the prolonged school shutdowns. Thanks to Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), who recently released over 1,000 pages from Fauci’s diary, and another 100 pages of his internal emails, we can now see what motivated this wanton destruction: it was Fauci’s own thirst for fame and power.

“Big front page article about me appeared in the Washington Post,” Fauci wrote on May 21, 2020. “Very flattering. The situation with my national and international fame is explosive and really unimaginable.”
