Dr. Fauci's Diary Entries Released

**Nigel** (0:00)
Oh, man, is this going to be tailgate-worthy, Hammer, Fauci?
The good Dr. Fauci expected to be brought back to DC to testify under oath after his private diary entries were released, showing how much he bragged about himself and behind the scenes, manipulating the public, getting favorable press coverage. And Rand Paul, Senator of Rand Paul, who loves him some Rand Paul, obviously, is the one that obtained Dr. Fauci's pandemic diaries, although I guess it was through some Senate investigation. We still don't know the mechanism for which they used to get to obtain those diaries. We don't know how exactly they got them. I picture Fauci on his bed, laying on his stomach with his legs up in the air across, like some little girl writing in his diary.

**Hammer** (0:55)
As much as Rand Paul loves Rand Paul, Rand Paul hates Dr. Fauci. Yes.

**Nigel** (1:01)
And so this is going to be tailgate worthy for sure.

**Hammer** (1:03)
Yes. Hate isn't a strong enough word. Like, do you hate anybody as much as Rand Paul hates Dr. Fauci?

**Nigel** (1:11)
I mean, besides you, no.

**Hammer** (1:12)
Besides me?

**Nigel** (1:14)
No, it's a joke. I don't know.
I don't think so.

**Hammer** (1:17)
I mean, Rand Paul is doing everything and he can possibly do to make his life miserable. And I'm here for it. I am here for it. I love this level of pettiness. You know me. So Fauci, you're right, Nigel. It's like a teenage girl writing in a diary, talking about all the cool things that are happening to him on that day. Like Barbara Streisand talking about how great he was. That was mentioned in one of Fauci's diary posts.
Some other stuff.
At one point, he's bragging about having a dinner with Jake Tapper and then how Donald Trump's mad. Now, mind you, this is during COVID. Fauci was telling people, you're not allowed to see your grandparents and you might not have Thanksgiving. But he was hanging out playing grab ass with the Tappers.

**Nigel** (2:08)
They all were doing it. They all were a bunch of hypocrites.

**Hammer** (2:12)
In one entry, Dr. Fauci wrote, quote, it's not hyperbole to say I'm the most famous and talked about person in the country right now.

**Nigel** (2:20)
Oh, what an egomaniac.

**Hammer** (2:24)
He says the situation with my national fame is explosive. Yeah, we know my diarrhea just got explosive. How will you focus on that, Dr. Fauci?
Fauci claimed that he didn't shut down the schools in a hearing, but he bragged in this diary that California and New York shut down their schools based on his recommendations.

**Nigel** (2:48)
Now, you know, I mean, that sounds like perjury to me. Like if he really testified that, no, no, I didn't have anything to do shutting down schools, then he's bragging about it in his diaries that he had total influence over California and New York. Now, the key here is old pudding brains Biden, old executive pen, executive pardon Biden, pardon this guy preemptively.

**Hammer** (3:10)
He did.

**Nigel** (3:10)
So unless they catch him in new lies during this testimony this week, then, you know, he's going to be pleading. I wonder how many times he's going to be pleading the fifth.

**Hammer** (3:22)
Oh, that's a good question.

**Nigel** (3:24)
Over or under?

**Hammer** (3:25)
We'll have to set a betting line for that. Now, keep in mind, January 26th of 2020 This is January. This is before players, I believe, were getting pulled off the court for March Madness stuff. This is the beginning of it.
Fauci writes in his diary. Now we know the market was not the source. It was the amplifier.

**Nigel** (3:46)
Whoa, that's awfully early to admit the wet market wasn't the source of COVID.

**Hammer** (3:51)
They ran with that wet market story for how long? Well, after January of 2020

**Nigel** (3:57)
Oh, long after, and they knew it. They knew it.

**Hammer** (4:02)
February 3rd, 2020, from the diary, Fauci calls the head of China's CDC and confirms asymptomatic people can transmit COVID. And then Fauci writes that Wuhan health officials, quote, did not tell him this, and he thus gave out information, a lapse that likely allowed the outbreak to take hold.

**Nigel** (4:27)
Yeah, I remember that.

**Hammer** (4:28)
Just a complete dropping of the ball from somebody more interested in doing magazine covers and being a celebrity.
Fauci recorded in his diary that he was able to make a stock market drop with that statement that COVID was 10 times more deadly than the flu. But at the same time, in the same diary, Nigel, the same damn diary, he wrote that COVID wasn't any more deadly than the seasonal flu. So he's going back and forth and debating himself all on these pages.
