A handful of brave GOP members of Congress want to put the kibosh on Dr. Fauci’s taxpayer-funded perks, which include a limousine, a full-time driver and a fully staffed US Marshals security detail.

Representative Dale Strong (R-AL) introduced a bill on Thursday which has so far been described as the “No Taxpayer Funded Details for Anthony Fauci” act.

“When I discovered that Dr. Fauci still had a taxpayer-funded driver and bodyguards after his resignation, I felt it was another example of Washington bureaucrats putting themselves above the American people,” said Rep. Strong in a statement.

“Our country is $33 trillion in debt. Taxpayers should not be paying for Dr. Fauci’s security detail, especially when Fauci was one of the highest paid federal employees in the US,” he added.

Fauci’s taxpayer-funded detail is estimated to cost the American taxpayer about $1 million a month, based on comparable previous security details. Contrary to popular belief, the “retired” head of NIAID reportedly remains on the team through a no-show job at NIAID so he can receive his security detail from the US Marshals.

The bill so far has 4 co-sponsors: Rep. Mike Rodgers (R-AL), Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA), Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ), and Rep. Barry Moore (R-AL).

In July, Sen. Rand Paul announced on Fox News that he had confirmed rumors that Fauci had a taxpayer-funded limousine, driver and security detail.

Over the course of the 2019-2021 Covid hysteria years, Fauci became a very wealthy man, seeing his net worth rise from $7.6 million in 2019 to $12.6 million. seconds to revelations

On Thursday, he went on MSNBC with White House stenographer Mehdi Hasan to justify his taxpayer-funded perks.

Much of the 30-minute interview is simply Hasan telling Fauci how great he is, with Fauci agreeing with the sentiment. Finally, in the last few minutes, the issue of his security detail comes up.

Fauci said he receives death threats from “far-right extremists” because he disagreed with President Trump on some things, and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ comments are fanning the flames further because these so-called extremists express their hatred of Fauci.

Then the ever-humble Fauci told viewers, “In my career, I’ve been involved in saving literally millions of lives,” blaming misinformation for the possibility that large swaths of the population might be upset with him.

Please do your best to spread the word about the bill!
