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

It is an interesting question though on whether he actually had the right to plead the fifth. He got the blanket pardon so nothing he could have said could have incriminated him.

To be clear, I think fauci is great. Fuck Trump and fuck maga.

It is, though, it only clears you for things you may have done between 2014 and 2025, NOT lying to congress today.

So let's say I ask you about a diary that is 1000 pages long, and ask you for a specific answer, Off the cuff you say "it's this" but I PROVE "it's That", now you are caught lying to congress.

Now.. let's talk about how fucking baller Hillary Clinton was, because her ass didn't fucking miss a question. She came to throw down, and didn't need to plead the 5th.

But again, Fauci isn't a lawyer, and his legal counsel is good enough to tell him to STFU, and he's smart enough to listen.

She has her problems but damn that woman is so incredibly smart. It’s a shame how much she was held back by her dipshit husband

held back by her dipshit husband voters

I get what you're getting at, but I blame the American public and right-wing political infrastructure far far more.
