“I represent science,” said Fauci, adding that it was “dangerous” to criticize scientists working on addressing COVID-19.

GOP Senator Answers Fauci’s “Moron” Comment By Releasing Fauci’s Undisclosed Financial Records

We already knew that Dr. Anthony Fauci was the highest-paid federal employee, banking an yearly salary north of $434,000.

The public also knows that Fauci is set up for a $350,000 annual pension if, or when, he retires.

But thanks to Sen. Roger Marshall, we now know that the nation’s top infectious diseases expert is fabulously wealthy.

Marshall, a Kansas Republican, released Fauci’s federal financial disclosure forms, which previously were not public, on Saturday, revealing the doctor holds an investment portfolio worth $10.4 million.

The revelation about Fauci’s wealth came after a spat earlier this week between Fauci and Marshall, who is also a medical doctor.

During a Senate hearing, Marshall asked about Fauci’s finances, which others outside of government had also been seeking.

“I don’t know why you’re asking me that question,” Fauci said as he got angry over the grilling. “My financial disclosure is public knowledge and has been so for the last 37 years or so.”

“All you have to do is ask for it,” he added. “You’re so misinformed, it’s extraordinary.”

At one point, Fauci was caught on a hot mic calling Marshall a “moron.”

Marshall responded by asking for Fauci’s financial records. The senator sent Fauci a letter on Wednesday demanding that he turn over his records by 5 p.m. Friday.

He also announced plans to file the Financial Accountability for Uniquely Compensated Individuals, or FAUCI, Act that, according to The Washington Times, would require the Office of Government Ethics to release any unpublished financial records for certain government officials.

The Times noted that while Fauci’s financial reports are public records, the Center for Public Integrity has said the process to get them can take months.

Breitbart News reported on Saturday that Fauci’s records show his portfolio includes investments in a Chinese fund that backs pharmaceutical firms in China.

In a statement on Saturday, Marshall added, “Dr. Fauci lied to the American people. He is more concerned with being a media star and posing for the cover of magazines than he is being honest with the American people and holding China accountable for the COVID pandemic that has taken the lives of almost 850 thousand Americans.”

“Just like he has misled the American people about sending taxpayers dollars to Wuhan, China to fund gain-of-function research, about masks, testing, and more, Dr. Fauci was completely dishonest about his financial disclosures being open to the public – it’s no wonder he is the least trusted bureaucrat in America,” Marshall added. “At the end of the day, Dr. Fauci must be held accountable to all Americans who have been suing and requesting for this information but don’t have the power of a Senate office to ask for it. For these reasons, I will be introducing the FAUCI Act so financial disclosures like these are made public and are easily accessible online to every American.”
