We all learned the hard way that Dr. Anthony Fauci had quite the ego.
The former national COVID czar once made the outrageous claim that “attacks on me, quite frankly, are attacks on science.”
This from westernjournal.com.
Of course, that was before he acknowledged the infamous six-foot social distancing rule was made up, and came amid countless flip-flops on masking policies.
As it turns out, our federal government nevertheless decided to massage that enormous ego in perpetuity, specifically by setting aside funds to build Fauci his own exhibit at the National Institutes of Health Museum.
According to the Department of Government Efficiency:
Uncle Sam had allocated a whopping $168,000 for that project.
But DOGE announced on Friday the contract for the exhibit has been canceled.
That came as the Department of Health and Human Services “canceled 62 contracts worth $182 million” in a mere 48 hours.
And none of that spending had anything to do with supplying medical care to the people.
DOGE revealed:
These contracts were entirely for administrative expenses—none touched any healthcare programs.
