Dr. Anthony Fauci was overheard on a hot mic calling a Republican senator a ‘moron’ after a particularly heated line of questioning during a Senate Health Committee hearing on Tuesday.
Kansas Senator Roger Marshall was demanding that President Joe Biden’s chief medical adviser disclose information about his financial assets, noting his hefty government paycheck.
An exasperated Fauci told him multiple times that his financial disclosures are public knowledge.
After Marshall’s time was up, the infectious disease expert could be heard sighing: ‘What a moron, Jesus Christ.’
He and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Rochelle Walensky appeared before the Senate panel to defend the Biden administration’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic as it nears the end of its second year.
During the contentious hearing Fauci also accused Republican Senator Rand Paul of personally attacking him for ‘political gain, distorting ‘everything’ he says’ and inspiring ‘crazies’ to want to kill him during another tense battle.
Marshall began his off-topic exchange with a blown up check made out to Fauci for $434,312 and demanded he present his already-public financial disclosures — implicitly accusing the longtime medical expert of possible insider trading.
‘I don’t understand why you’re asking me that question. My financial disclosure is public knowledge and has been so for the last 37 years or so,’ Fauci replied.
Fauci, like most senior government officials, is bound by law to disclose his financial information on an annual basis. There have never been any evidence reported that Fauci has run into trouble with the statute or neglected to follow it.
Marshall pressed him again, ‘But the big tech giants are doing an incredible job of keeping it from being public. We’ll continue to look for it. Where would we find it?’
