anthony fauci almost never talks about them. media almost never talk aboutem them. i don't think that most americans heard of it, this is not a grave disservice. >> you look back how the pandemic was handled there will be a whole host of the cardinal sins, chief will be schoolhi closures, we have schooled still closed in parts of the country, unbelievably, with lockdowns, which that were a disaster, but not focusing on treatment from the beginning was a huge mistake, dr. anthony fauci and people like him are absolutely to blame for this, once we get treatment on-line, to ignore them and put all your eggs in one basket was a fundamental mistake, the question biden mentioned it once after right before they cut our supply, he said we'll ramp up the monoclonal antibodies then he cuts the supply, we have not seen the ramp up. i don't think they will embrace it. i think they have tunnel vision in terms of how they want to handle this, it has not worked. he demma goinged -- demagogue donald trump during the covid. it was a ridiculous thing to say, it. he gets in and now yo

brady is 37 years younger than anthony fauci. but at his age, he seems to have more patients got more perspective, and more clarity about life. imagine if brady was saying that he wanted to hang onto prove his doubters wrong, which is what fauci seems to be telegraphing in some of his public statements. at this point, fauci knows that half the country has tuned him out. but he wants to hang on just to annoy us for a little while longer. how arrogant is that and how sad it is. sync with his current crop of old folkies running the democratic party. they are almost staying on for despite of it at this point. >> i do know why people are saying, you need to step aside for me. no. if you want my seeds, come get it. >> laura: 81 years young. nothing positive to show for the past 13 months. only the wreckage they have left behind by. but they are still hanging on. obviously, being a senior citizen does not disqualify and one from making huge positive contributions. remember, benjamin franklin was at the constitutional convention at age 8
