As our own Warren Squire reported Friday, President Donald Trump revoked Dr. Anthony Fauci's taxpayer-funded 24/7 security detail. A reporter asked Trump, "Would you feel partially responsible if something were to happen to Dr. Fauci?" to which Trump replied that Fauci had made a lot of money and could afford to pay for his own private security team. Fauci has a reported net worth of $11 million, and he was making more than anyone else in the federal government, with a salary topping $480,000 a year.
Laura Powell, who describes herself in her X bio as a "former leftist, still liberal," posted a short video clip of what we were paying for.
Here’s a glimpse of what Fauci’s 24/7 security detail looked like in the real world. A limousine drives him wherever he wants to go. He somehow made a gazillion dollars as a “public servant” so he can afford to pay to continue this lifestyle if he chooses.pic.twitter.com/CbUgiriBMk

Yeah, he can afford security if he thinks he needs it.
In this clip, Fauci talks about how his life is so hard having “permanent” taxpayer-funded security.pic.twitter.com/6CL1OKEEPA

Hey, good news! Now Fauci can have his privacy back and pop into Walgreens for toothpaste whenever he wants.
This is why that little dictator called himself “the science” - taxpayer funded special treatment!

Ridiculous. He can hire his own security. Too expensive? He can move to the country where nobody ever sees him.

Time to get rid of the term “public servant” for government officials who get rich off the backs of taxpayers.

He can lock himself down at home.

THIS is why he thinks he’s the king of everything. 🙄

Maybe he can pump some of those vaccines into himself so he can be taller and stronger to protect himself.

What a disgusting waste of my money.

Not bad for a pardoned criminal

Fauci’s is still making money hand over fist from poisoning the minds of upcoming physicians and scientists aka the lecture circuit and writings. Let’s not forget the generous government pension as one of the highest paid “public servants” in Washington.

Insufferable little weasel.

That’s ridiculous - dude thinks he is a rock star.

He’s like a tiny emperor.

I know a place where there's great security.

Prison.
The best part of this is knowing that January 6 select committee chairman Bennie Thompson tried to yank Trump's security by proposing the Denying Infinite Security and Government Resources Allocated toward Convicted and Extremely Dishonorable Former Protectees Act—or the DISGRACED Act. Get it?
Fauci just received a preemptive pardon from Joe Biden, so we guess he's extremely dishonorable too.
