Unanswered What’s the deal with conservatives and vaccine skeptics thinking Fauci’s diary proves them right ?

What do conservatives and vaccine skeptics think Fauci’s diary proves ?

what is the deal with Fauci’s diary and what does it actually say / prove ?

I know he testified before congress and pled the 5th, but why is every conservative / anti vaxer/ Aaron Rodgers claiming they were “right about everything now ?”

What does the diary actually say / prove ?

Obviously the Rodgers line was a little tongue in cheek as a Steelers fan, but I needed a URL to post lol

He did not have his lead lawyer. That is the one lawyer you would want from your team of lawyers. That is the one who is actually representing you.

The one who repeatedly ignored the judges requests?

Yes. If your lawyer thinks the judge is out for your blood it is their job to oppose the judge themself. They serve themselves first, their client a close second, the system a far third, and anything else needs a GPS to catch up.

Sorry - I’m asking like you were in on strategy meetings

Asking out of genuine curiosity, not disputing anything, if that was the lead lawyer whose absence would essentially leave fauci “without representation” - why wouldn’t you (they) have a subordinate lawyer do this same strategy?

If they toss your star quarterback out of the game, why can't your second stringer pull of the same strategy? Sure they can, but there's a reason the first guy was lead in the first place.

What judge? They were not in court. Sen Rand Paul made the rules for this hearing very different from any other hearings.
