Fauci diary excerpts spark new accusations as Senate hearing approaches

Senator Rand Paul has released over 1,100 pages of Dr. Anthony Fauci’s private notes from 2020, revealing his internal assessments of COVID‑19 mortality, the Wuhan market’s role, and personal opinions about political figures. The diaries have been cited by former CDC chief Robert Redfield and others to argue the government misled the public, while Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment repeatedly during a recent Senate hearing. Additional commentary links the entries to claims of vaccine injury and personal fame‑seeking behavior.
