Can America finally tell Fauci what we’ve been waiting for- that he’s FIRED?
Marjorie Taylor Greene brought forth legislation to get rid of Fauci for good!
The “Fire Fauci Act was introduced Tuesday and supported by Republicans.
This legislation would bring his salary down to $0.00!
It's time to fire Anthony Fauci.
My "Fire Fauci Act" does exactly that.
Thank you to my Republican colleagues for supporting this legislation.#FireFauci pic.twitter.com/z2UenvrBjM

Dr. Fauci’s misguided health “recommendations” have been just as destructive on our country as COVID-19.
That’s why I’m co-sponsoring @RepMTG’s #FireFauci Act. https://t.co/vjkbioNrDn

We have a video below from Rumble where Rep. Greene discusses sponsoring the Fire Fauci Act:
The details of the Fire Fauci Act can be found below from Congress.gov:
A BILL
To reduce the salary of the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, to provide for an audit of the correspondence, financial statements, and policy memoranda within the Office of the Director during the COVID–19 outbreak, and for other purposes.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.
This Act may be cited as the “Fire Fauci Act”.
SEC. 2 FINDINGS.
Congress finds the following:
(1) The Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), Dr. Anthony Fauci, M.D., earned $434,312 in 2020.
(2) Dr. Fauci is not only the highest paid doctor in the Federal Government, but the highest paid of any of the 4,000,000 Federal employees, including the President.
(3) Part IV of the Executive Schedule generally caps government salaries at $172,500, but Dr. Fauci’s salary is much higher due to an exception put in place to make Federal salaries for doctors and scientists more competitive with the private sector.
(4) The role of the Director of the NIAID is to “provide scientific leadership, policy guidance, and overall operational and administrative coordination for the Institute”.
(5) NIAID is funded by American taxpayer dollars and, as part of the National Institutes of Health, seeks to apply scientific knowledge to “enhance health, lengthen life, and reduce illness and disability”.
(6) Dr. Anthony Fauci has continually failed to provide Americans with accurate information about the COVID–19 pandemic and has shown distrust in the American private sector and American ingenuity.
(7) In March 2020, Dr. Fauci told Americans not to wear masks, noting: “There’s no reason to be walking around with a mask. When you are in the middle of an outbreak, wearing a mask might make people feel a little bit better and it might even block a droplet, but it is not providing the perfect protection that people think that it is. And, often, there are unintended consequences—people keep fiddling with the mask and they keep touching their face.”.
(8) Now, more than a year later, he is telling Americans to continue quarantining as much as possible and to wear a mask, maybe even into the year 2022.
(9) According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the vaccines have been “highly effective” at preventing infection. Research from Johns Hopkins Medicine has shown that the vaccine is 95 percent effective, and also works to prevent serious illness in the 1 in 20 people who may contract COVID–19 after being vaccinated. Over 100,000,000 vaccines have now been administered, and some studies show that those who have already contracted COVID–19 may only need 1 dose of the vaccine to prevent reinfection rather than the 2 prescribed. Despite these outcomes and his previous comments, Dr. Fauci has reversed course and is now sounding the alarm on COVID–19 variants, commenting: “The way we can counter [the UK variant], which is a growing threat in our country, is to do two things: to get as many people vaccinated as quickly and as expeditiously as possible with the vaccine that we know works against this variant and, finally, to implement the public health measures that we talk about all the time . . . masking, physical distancing and avoiding congregant settings, particularly indoors.”.
(10) Dr. Fauci also now claims that herd immunity will require 80 to 85 percent of Americans to get the vaccine.
(11) Dr. Fauci did not believe that American companies such as Pfizer, Moderna, and Johnson & Johnson would be able to produce an effective vaccine. In August 2020, he stated that the vaccine might only be 50 percent effective.
SEC. 3. SALARY LIMITATION.
Section 401 of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 281) is amended by adding at the end the following:
“(i) Rate Of Pay Of Director Of NIAID.—
“(1) REDUCTION.—For all pay periods commencing after the date of enactment of this Act, the annual rate of pay of the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases shall be reduced to $0.
“(2) NO ADJUSTMENT.—Paragraph (1) applies only until a new Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases is appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate, excluding Dr. Anthony Fauci, M.D.”.
SEC. 4. TRANSPARENCY AUDIT FOR THE OFFICE OF THE DIRECTOR OF THE NIAID.
(a) In General.—Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the Comptroller General of the United States shall complete an audit of the digital correspondence, policy memoranda, and financial transactions within the Office of the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases during the period of October 1, 2019, through December 31, 2021.
(b) Report To Congress.—
(1) IN GENERAL.—Not later than 1 year after the audit required pursuant to subsection (a) is completed, the Comptroller General—
(A) shall submit to the Congress a report on the results of such audit; and
(B) shall make such report available to the Speaker of the House of Representatives, the majority and minority leaders of the House of Representatives and the Senate, and any other Member of Congress who requests the report.
(2) CONTENTS.—The audit report under subsection (a) shall include—
(A) a detailed description of the digital correspondence (including text messages and emails) of the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases from October 1, 2019, through December 31, 2021;
(B) financial transactions approved by the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases from October 1, 2019, through December 31, 2021; and
(C) any memoranda or policy reports written within the Office of the Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases related to the COVID–19 virus outbreak.
The mainstream media is panicking!
Yahoo called this a “conspiracy-heavy attack on Fauci”:
One after another, some of the most conservative members of the House of Representatives took to the stage at the U.S. Capitol on Tuesday to denounce Dr. Anthony Fauci, the top medical adviser to President Biden, and to air other pandemic-related grievances.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., who was introducing a bill to reduce Fauci’s salary to $0 and have him account for his handling of the coronavirus pandemic, led the attacks. The proposed legislation, called the Fire Fauci Act, stands no chance of passage in a House controlled by Democrats.
Nevertheless, the highly vituperative affair — replete with reminders that Fauci was an “unelected bureaucrat” — was indicative of how the bespectacled, Brooklyn-born immunologist continues to be at the center of every ongoing debate related to the coronavirus, including the economic costs of lockdowns (low, says a new study, though there are, of course, social and psychic costs to isolation) and the efficacy of wearing masks (exceptionally high, the discomfort of masking aside).
Bitter recriminations over the handling of the pandemic continue to fill the national discourse, even as that pandemic ends. Conservatives believe that restrictions were onerous and unnecessary, while liberals and progressives have criticized former President Donald Trump’s response. Trump frequently undermined and threatened Fauci, eventually making Dr. Scott Atlas, a controversial Stanford-affiliated physician, his top coronavirus adviser.
Even as the pandemic ebbs in the United States, the attacks against Fauci have intensified. Critics have used his emails, released recently under a Freedom of Information Act request, to buttress their claims. Those show that he was uncertain about the efficacy of masks in the early stages of the pandemic. So were many others at a time early on when how the virus spread was poorly understood. One email Fauci received in January 2020 did raise the possibility of a lab escape, but there is no evidence he concealed critical information about the origins of the virus. Such information has been exceptionally difficult to come by for investigators outside China.
“Please cover his emails,” Greene said. “Get the truth out.” The emails were extensively covered by the Washington Post and other outlets, but conservatives who have been suspicious of Fauci and the scientific establishment from the start insist that the messages merit more investigation.
Taylor and her co-sponsors on the anti-Fauci bill (Republican Reps. Thomas Massie of Kentucky; Andy Biggs and Paul Gosar of Arizona; Mary Miller of Illinois; Buddy Carter of Georgia; Bob Good of Virginia; Matt Gaetz and Greg Steube of Florida; and Mo Brooks of Alabama) claim that Fauci knowingly funded research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology that made the virus more lethal. Although that laboratory did receive National Institutes of Health funding through a New York-based organization called the EcoHealth Alliance, both Fauci and NIH Director Francis Collins have explicitly said that Chinese grant recipients were prevented from using U.S. funds for so-called gain-of-function research, which makes a pathogen either more transmissible or more potent to see how it might then behave.
Conservatives are unconvinced. Now that Fauci is associated with Biden, not Trump, their attacks are seemingly intended to imply that the new administration is incapable of holding China to account. Biden has, in fact, called for a more complete investigation of how the coronavirus originated.
“Were we all victims of a bioweapon?” wondered Greene, a onetime adherent of the QAnon conspiracy theory who has also mused about “Jewish space lasers” and more recently dismissed evolution. She demanded “reparations” from the Chinese government, which has sought to distance itself from any responsibility for the origins of the virus, going so far as to call for investigations of bioweapons at American facilities. Yet scientists have become increasingly emboldened in arguing that the lab escape theory needs a harder look, with greater cooperation from China. The notion that China unleashed a bioweapon on the world, however, is not considered a credible hypothesis.
Trump was sometimes irritated with Fauci’s media appearances, and by the high degree of trustworthiness he was afforded by the public. Those grievances plainly persist. “Dr. Fauci leveraged his position as a leading figure in the White House to become a celebrity,” charged Rep. Biggs.
Greene and others spoke standing beside a placard that said: “Fauci lied. People died.” The words were accompanied by a photo of a masked Fauci, who is head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. He has been in the federal government for 40 years and has served seven consecutive presidents, including Trump.
Firing him would be difficult, since Fauci is a senior public servant, not an appointed official. Nor are congressional Democrats, or the president, bound to take personnel advice from the most radical members of the opposition party, some of whom called into question Biden’s legitimate victory in last November’s election.
Not only should Fraudci be fired, but he should be charged with crimes against humanity for his mishandling of the pandemic.
Twitter seems happy to see Fauci on the way out:

Is the deep state throwing Fauci under the bus to hide the truth from coming out?
It’s too bad the deep state can’t control the narrative for much longer.
Patriots know the Dems’ playbook and are using it against them.
Marjorie Taylor Greene and the Republicans backing the Fire Fauci Act have shown Patriots are in control.
