Here's one of those cases where deleting a post is just a good idea. John Pavlovitz, author of "If God Is Love, Don't Be a Jerk," is sticking up for his man, Dr. Anthony Fauci. Never mind that Fauci just pleaded the Fifth 111 times before a Senate committee, despite having a blanket pardon from President Joe Biden. Fauci is a doctor. Do you know who's not a doctor? Sen. Rand Paul.
You know who isn't a doctor?

Rand Paul isn't, and RFK Jr isn't, you stuporous dope. https://t.co/bICmflrCuF
I’m literally an MD. I operate on eyeballs.

Pavlovitz got hit with a Community Note on this one:
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Rand Paul earned an MD from Duke University School of Medicine. RFK Jr. is not a medical doctor. Anthony Fauci earned his MD from Cornell University.
I love it here

Love the ratio

This is from the guy who insisted we call the former first lady Dr. Jill Biden.
I’m sure Palvovitz probably thought “Dr.” Jill Biden should have been Surgeon General.

How did Pavlovitz not see that one coming?
— David Blinn (@DLBlinn61) August 8, 2026
Maybe he should see an eye doctor.

You are certainly opening people’s eyes. Thank you for being the one Senator brave enough to challenge Fauci from the start, and thank you for not letting it go.

Rand Paul is a teacher as well.

He just taught @johnpavlovitz the meaning of ophthalmologist
Please do keep your eye on the ball: making sure the truth comes out. And thank you for your work.

A Community Note plus a rebuttal by the man himself. Pavlovitz should get his eyes fixed, read Fauci's diary, and compare it to his previous testimony.
