Rand Paul and Dr. Anthony Fauci have become enemies.

He accused Fauci of lying about whether the COVID-19 virus had its origins in a lab in China. Fauci fought back.<\/p>\n<p>According to NBC News: <em>&#8220;What happens when he gets out and accuses me of things that are completely untrue, is that all of a sudden that kindles the crazies out there, and I have threats upon my life, harassment of my family, and my children, with obscene phone calls because people are lying about me,&#8221; said Fauci during the Senate hearing.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.msn.com\/en-us\/news\/politics\/fauci-says-sen-paul-s-attacks-kindle-the-crazies-who-have-threatened-his-life\/ar-AASEWcB?li=BBnb7Kz\">Fauci says Sen. Paul &#8216;s attacks &#8216;kindle the crazies&#8217; who have threatened his life (msn.com)<\/a><\/p>\n<p>And so it goes. Paul, who also is a physician when he isn&#8217;t stirring up the GOP nut jobs out there, will continue to harangue the good doctor for as long as he is able.<\/p>\n<p>To be candid, I will stand with Fauci. My goodness, he is the nation&#8217;s pre-eminent infectious disease expert. He knows a lot more about this stuff than virtually anyone else, and that includes Sen. Rand Paul. So, for Paul to question the credibility of a man who took an oath years ago to &#8220;first, do no harm&#8221; is laughable on its face.<\/p>\n<p>To put a fine point on it, Rand Paul just pi**es me off.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a href=\"mailto:johnkanelis_92@hotmail.com\">johnkanelis_92@hotmail.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n<div class=\"twitter-share\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?via=jkanelis\" class=\"twitter-share-button\">Tweet<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>U.S. Sen.
