Sen. Rand Paul said he will introduce an amendment to remove Dr. Anthony Fauci as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases — saying no one should be “dictator in chief.”
Paul (R-Ky.), who often feuded with Fauci at Senate hearings over the administration’s response to the coronavirus pandemic, said American ”lives were held captive by petty tyrants and power-hungry bureaucrats.” over the past two years.
“We’ve learned a lot over the past two years, but one lesson in particular is that no one person should be deemed ’dictator in chief.’ No one person should have unilateral authority to make decisions for millions of Americans,” Paul, an ophthalmologist, wrote in an op-ed on Fox News Monday.
”To ensure that ineffective, unscientific lockdowns and mandates are never foisted on the American people ever again, I will introduce an amendment to eliminate Dr. Anthony Fauci’s position as director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and divide his power into three separate new institutes,” the senator continued.
Paul questioned Fauci’s authority to “dictate science” when he wasn’t “following the science.”
“I’ve said that from the beginning, and I’ve been proven right over, and over, and over again. On masks, lockdowns, schools, natural immunity, all of it,” Paul wrote two years after the US began widespread lockdowns in response to the deadly disease.
He said the directors of the three institutes will be appointed by the president and confirmed by the Senate for five-year terms.

Sounds like a good plan from Rand.
TOO LATE!
SEN. RAND PAUL vows to remove ‘dictator in chief’ Fauci from NIAID
Yes, right after his sentencing for life.
Well I like my Senator and his thinking, I don’t see how he can get it done. Democrats can and will will block everything
It wasn’t just fauci, but he was the instigator for all the littler tyrants running different states
ALL gubmint is reactionary...so you will always be correct!
And the position should have an age limit - retire by 65.
Seems this is an uncountable government agency head.
Agreed, that’s a big deal, elections etc fixed, years to get to the bottom of it, by then it’s a new administration and the legal office is owned not independent..
It’s not working
I want the SOB to be given the Death Vaccine that he used to Murder the Public. The same for all the others involved. Or at least as many as we can round up !!!
Rand has been relentless trying to oust that little monster.
