Fauci, okay? How many days ago was Fauci, by the way? Was it Wednesday? Was it Tuesday? I don't know what day it was, but we didn't do a podcast.

**Vinny** (0:34)
Or Monday?

**Patrick Bet-David** (0:35)
It was one of the days. And all of a sudden, Tom and I are on a flight back. Wherever we were, we were on a flight. I don't know where we were. We could have been, oh, we were coming back from Tampons. I don't know where we're coming back from. Tom says, Pat, I'm telling you, this guy's going to plead the fifth tomorrow. He says, I'm telling you, he's going to plead the fifth and everything to him. I said, you think he's going to plead the fifth? He doesn't have to do anything. He's got the preemptive, what do you call it, pardon. He's got immunity. He's going to have protection from the people previous to him. He knew he was guilty and he knew this day was coming and he's going to plead the fifth the entire time. And then all of a sudden, we wake up in a highlight reel of Josh Hawley showing the fact that any question he asked, this is how Fauci was going to answer. We got a handful of clips to show you and we'll get into it, go for it.
We need audio, guys.
Can you go back, please?

**Anthony Fauci** (1:29)
Thank you, Mr. Chairman.

**Josh Hawley** (1:31)
Well, nothing says honesty like taking the fifth, hunduck.

**Rand Paul** (1:35)
Let's try something. What day of the week is it today?

**Anthony Fauci** (1:42)
On the advice of council, I respectfully decline to answer based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.

**Rand Paul** (1:49)
What color tie are you wearing?

**Anthony Fauci** (1:52)
On the advice of council, I respectfully decline to answer based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.

**Rand Paul** (1:59)
What color is the carpet in front of you?

**Anthony Fauci** (2:04)
On the advice of council, I respectfully decline to answer based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.

**Patrick Bet-David** (2:11)
Let's just get one thing, thank you, Mr. Chairman. So, this is one clip. Now, one of the guys went scorched earth on Fauci. And when I tell you this, dropped an F-bomb to his face. He says, I was a business guy, I was running my businesses, and then when I saw what you guys did, I let him tell this story. He does a better job at explaining his position. Go for it.

**Josh Hawley** (2:33)
It was about six years ago today that I decided I'm gonna give up my businesses, sell them all, run for office, run for the United States Senate. Here I am sitting in front of you six years later, saying, who the fuck do you think you were for doing that?

**Jeff** (2:49)
Look at Fauci's face, though.

**Josh Hawley** (2:51)
It is a total disgrace what you did to this country. And if my Democrat colleagues are standing there defending you, I hope the voters of the United States of America watch the clips of every one of you doting on a guy who was more interested in being a celebrity than saving American people. I will make it my mission to make certain that every single one of those Democrats who did that will see that clip over and over and over again. Because defending, there is no defense of what you did.
You may have had a 50-plus year legacy of public service, but it ends in total and complete disgrace.

**Patrick Bet-David** (3:40)
And by the way, I think there was a moment later on when he's walking out, he goes onto the elevator, he says, Fauci is a full-on POS.
I think he said that the clip is out there. You may be able to find it. But there was a moment where Fauci and others, probably some of the Biden administration, instructed him to have your lawyer speak on your behalf. Until Rand Paul's like, no, no, no, no, no.
This ain't going to fly. I'm here to talk to you and not your lawyer. I don't know if you have that clip ready or not. This is one of the best clips of Rand Paul asking, this is not it. There's a clip of his lawyer in there, Fauci's lawyer sitting next to him, and Rand Paul says, I need you to get up and please escort this man out of here. Is this the one? Go for it.
