Fauci Destroys Ted Cruz: ‘I Should Be Prosecuted?! What Happened On Jan. 6, Senator?!’

Dr. Anthony Fauci, Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, has had quite enough of blowhard Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and he’s fighting fire with fire when it comes to reminding the Texas Republican of the controversial (and possibly illegal) actions he took to try and keep failed, one-term former President Donald Trump in office.

Fauci was interviwed by CBS News and was asked by host Margaret Brennan about some of the contentious hearings the doctor has been subjected to in the Senate. He told her:

“Anybody who spins lies and threatens and all that theater that goes on with some of the investigations and the congressional committees and the Rand Pauls and all that other nonsense, that’s noise … that’s noise. I know what my job is.”

Brennan then asked about something Cruz had said:

“Senator Cruz told the attorney general you should be prosecuted.”

Fauci laughed and replied:

“I should be prosecuted?! What happened on Jan. 6, senator?!”

Brennan then followed-up by asking:

“Do you think that this is about making you a scapegoat to deflect from [former] President Donald Trump?”

Fauci:

“Of course! You have to be asleep not to figure that one out.”

Dr. Fauci is a scientist. He doesn’t have time for politics; he’s too busy trying to save lives and make sure we’re ready for the next COVID variant that may threaten this country.

Ted Cruz, on the other hand, has been called “the most hated man” in the U.S. Senate. He’s a petty, sniveling human carbuncle who needs to be investigated and expelled from Congress.
