The Friends of Ron DeSantis political committee continues to capitalize on conservative hatred of Dr. Anthony Fauci.
Fauci, a frequent target of Gov. DeSantis, was blasted yet again in the punnily-titled “Gain of Fauci” email, a play on the Gain of Function research conducted at a lab in Wuhan, the Chinese city where the coronavirus is thought to have gotten its start.
The timing is notable, with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention pushing for masks even for the vaccinated, as the delta variant crushes Florida.
The email contends that it has been “known for some time that the most likely explanation for the start of the pandemic is that the COVID-19 virus escaped from the Wuhan Institute of Virology in Wuhan, China.”
“We’ve suspected for some time that Fauci and his bureaucratic brethren may have been involved in funding the Wuhan lab’s work to experiment on viruses in ways that made them more deadly to human beings,” the communication continues, before lauding Sen. Rand Paul for irking Fauci.
“Fauci got agitated because he doesn’t want us to know his role in funding reckless, ethically dubious research that may have precipitated a global pandemic,” the email contends. “Fauci needs to be fired, and an investigation into his role in funding the Wuhan lab must be launched immediately.”
Also needed: small-dollar donations. Even $5 will help “continue my fight,” the letter promises.
“The corporate media is Fauci’s Praetorian Guard, and they are attacking me because I’ve been willing to hold Fauci accountable,” the email contends, somewhat forcing a metaphor to make its point.
But the anti-Fauci push is anything but subtle.
DeSantis’ campaign is already marketing anti-Fauci material, including “Don’t Fauci My Florida” beer koozies and T-shirts released as the delta variant of COVID-19 threatens the limits of Florida hospitals.

No, His Eminence Cardinal Fauci shall not be mocked by heretics with impunity. Wrath and tribulation shall be visited upon them.

I watched the exchange between Dr. Fauci and Rand Paul. I think I understand why Paul’s neighbor knocked him off the lawnmower.

I think he knocked him off the lawn mower because Rand Paul vote for the unconstitutional Obamacare mandate!

Fascist Fred Flintstone is long over due for his comeuppance. Hopefully it happens just in time to “monkey up” his reelection aspirations.

You LIBTARDS are attacking the wrong person. The root cause of all these issues are your brain dead president Biden. If you hate Florida, just get the Fu…ck out of here. Simple as that!

“. . . .as the delta variant crushes Florida.” Hyperbole thy name is FLAPOL.
What verb next? How about “squishes” or “squashes” or “pressures” or, I’ve got it, the phavorite phrase of journal junkies, “oppresses”.
Oh, that’s been used already, eh. Used to death? Yeah, I guess.

I still wonder what DeSantis is really running for. If you check the Florida elections site, he still hasn’t filed to run for Governor.

That’s it Dr. DuhSantis blame the messenger. It’s too bad all these mouthbreathers can’t quarantine themselves & move to MacClenny. That was pretty sweet when Fauci pimpslapped Ron Paul tho. Thx for letting me relive that.

Fauci and the CDC have done nothing but lie and give fake information for over a year. They are fear tactics and most people are waking up. Those that aren’t just don’t have enough brains to think for themselves. Thank God our Governor let’s people make their own choices and isn’t going to allow the government to dictate how we live.

In Tennessee, Arkansas, North Carolina. South Carolina, Alabama, Idaho, Oregon and Washington State minors do not have to ask their ignorant Trumpster parents for permission to get the COVID vaccine.
Teenagers should bring themselves siblings and friends to the nearest vaccine center and do the right thing.
Parents who refuse to vaccinate their children…..the children should report child abuse. We must end stupid.
Join real conservatives at the Lincoln Project.

I reside on earth Tjb.
Fauci has become a victim of his friendly liberal media brown nosing. He’s misspoke so much and talked out of both sides of his mouth and lost all credibility. Fauci had been around to long. He’s clearly guilty on game of function and defends China. DeSantis mocking Fauci is risky but I understand why. Fauci needs to go, DeSantis unlike most had read the science. His efforts hsvd been very strong until the most recent re episode of covid in which he will pull Florida through. It’s a 100 yr pandemic and I don’t ever hear the Dems offer anything except whine. Nothing zero. We’re not doing lockdowns, no mask mandate-optional yes. Get over it.
