As we've reported recently, entertainment site TMZ has been getting more and more involved in political issues, such as ICE. The outlet seemed particularly fascinated with Spencer Pratt's run for mayor of Los Angeles, doing what it could to stir up scandals around the candidate (and seeing its efforts backfire in a big way).
We're seeing a lot of Democrats coming out of the woodwork today to defend Anthony Fauci, who pleaded the Fifth 111 times at a Senate Homeland Security Committee hearing on Wednesday. But we were honestly surprised to see TMZ's Harvey Levin come out so strongly to defend Fauci, whose diary provides damning evidence that he lied in previous testimony. Levin called the hearing "heartbreaking" and compared it to the Joseph McCarthy hearings in a video he shot and posted to TMZ.

McCarthy was right. So is Rand Paul. He's got the receipts.
To be expected from a newsroom that cheered when Charlie Kirk was murdered.

Seriously you’re delusional

Harvey needs to look at Fauci’s entire career and wake up.

So you didn’t read Fauci’s diary & all the shady facts coming out? How many dinners were you at with Fauci while we were locked down?

That little elf man harmed our kids. He destroyed businesses. He wrecked the country. And he lied repeatedly about it, under oath.
What right did he even have to do that?
He is a despicable criminal POS, and he deserves everything that's coming his way.
TMZ is used to covering celebrities, and as Fauci noted in his diary on his government computer, “It is not hyperbole to say that today I am the most famous and talked about person in the country and one of the most recognizable person in the world.” TMZ is very protective of its relationship with celebrities.
We have an actual successor to Mengele and people are crying about a threat to put him in jail.

There are not enough 5-gallon buckets on the entire planet to hold all of the COVID infested goat dicks Harvey Levin can eat.

What Fauci did to my children is one of the most heartbreaking things I’ve witnessed

You're an idiot Harvey, not a journalist.

Look what the man did during the AIDS crisis...
Where there's smoke...
He wasn't just "wrong" on COVID, he was purposefully lying to Americans, which negatively affected millions.
He should be sent to The Hague.
Fauci will, no doubt, record your tongue bath in his diary entry for today.

Has Levin read any of the diary entries, or did he just go on camera completely ignorant? If he's heartbroken, he can go cry in front of his little Fauci shrine with the Fauci bobblehead and the Fauci prayer candles he has set up in his home.
