Trump's basal has blamed the 84-year-old doc for strict COVID-19 restrictions, including societal distancing, disguise wearing and harsh vaccine mandates that led to members of the equipped forces being forcibly discharged. 

Fauci is also accused of lying to Congress astir the U.S. sending wealth to money gain-of-function probe astatine the laboratory successful Wuhan, China, wherever the microorganism is thought to person originated and leaked from.

Biden was already going retired successful shame and disgrace, but this is simply a caller low.'

Another pro-MAGA relationship with 3.4 cardinal followers wrote: 'Biden's pardon of Fauci is his worst 1 yet. He deserves situation for life.'

'Fauci is the astir prolific American serial slayer of the 21st Century,' podcaster Eric Matheny wrote connected X. 'He's not a leader nor a respected antheral of science. He funded the instauration of COVID, knew astir its origins successful a lab, and lied to the American people.'

'Of people Biden pardons him,' helium concluded.

But Biden defended his determination to contented pardons, not lone for Fauci but besides for each 9 members of the January 6 Committee, earlier helium near bureau connected Monday morning.
