The Ten Ugly Faces of Anthony Fauci

By Peter Navarro | The Daily Caller | October 10, 2026

Dr. Anthony Stephen Fauci has had everything the American establishment could bestow upon a bureaucrat: magazine covers, prayer candles, presidential medals, the highest salary in the federal government, a record pension, and finally a sweeping presidential pardon. What Tony Fauci has never had is you, the jury.

In my new book, Why Fauci Must Rot in Prison, I’m the prosecutor; you will render your verdict, and I show that the most damning witness against Fauci is Fauci himself, speaking privately in a diary he never expected you to read.

The case I make against Fauci begins with a simple proposition. There was never just one Tony Fauci. There were many.

Playing God Tony thought he could first create deadly viruses and then create the vaccines that would contain them — playing God indeed.

To execute this Frankenstein vision, Fauci’s agency funded EcoHealth Alliance, which in turn sent American taxpayer money to the Wuhan Institute of Virology. In effect, Fauci offshored a dangerous gain-of-function technology that, in the hands of Chinese scientists — including bioweapons experts — resulted in the pandemic virus.

Then came Cover-Up Tony. In January 2020, at the dawn of the pandemic, a dozen of the world’s leading virologists told Fauci the COVID virus was likely from the Wuhan lab. That was behind closed doors.

Realizing his own possible culpability, Fauci set in motion the cover-up. He “prompted” several scientists awaiting grant funding to pen an academic paper called Proximal Origin, making the “virus from nature” case. Fauci then waved that propaganda to the world from the White House podium without ever acknowledging his own role in its manufacture.

Then came Lockdown Tony, who earnestly told us to hole up at home to stop the spread.

Schools closed. Businesses died. Children lost classrooms — and development. Families watched loved ones die through glass.
