Democrat presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., said Monday during an appearance on “Jesse Watters Primetime” that if elected president he would approve the prosecution of Dr. Anthony Fauci for his actions during the coronavirus pandemic.
Fox News host and show namesake Jesse Watters referenced Kennedy’s book “The Real Anthony Fauci, Bill Gates, Big Pharma and the Global War on Democracy and Public Health,” commenting that his guest sees Fauci as “the devil” before asking if he would prosecute the man often described in the media as the top infectious disease expert in America.
“If there were crimes that he committed, of course, I would tell the attorney general to prosecute him, not hold off,” Kennedy replied. ” I think that he caused a lot of injury.”

Kennedy, who is challenging President Joe Biden in the Democratic primary, is reviled on the left for his outspoken opposition to the Covid-19 vaccine and believes Fauci’s actions contributed to the coronavirus death rate.
“I think that he particularly, by withholding early treatment from Americans, we racked up the highest death count in the world,” Kennedy said.
‘We only have 4.2 percent of the globe’s population, but we had 16 percent of the COVID deaths in this country and that was from bad policy,” he explained. “There are countries that did the opposite of what we did that provided Ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, other early treatments to their populations and had 1/200th of our death rate.”
Not only did authorities in the U.S. avoid any attention on treating Covid-19, the media attacked and ridiculed those who called attention to the possibility that there were medicinal options available. Joe Rogan stands out here, as he was widely criticized for touting the benefits of ivermectin after he got the virus — CNN ridiculed him by portraying the drug as a horse dewormer, ignoring the common human application.
“There are many, many things we did wrong in our country and some of those were I would say … some of the things that were done by health officials at that time, that they knew they would be harmful,” Kennedy added.
The widely held belief is that the goal all along was to push the Covid-19 vaccine as the only real option.
Here’s a quick sampling of responses to the story from Twitter:

Many suicides can be attributed to Fauci. Classroom disruptions can be attributed to Fauci. Many elderly died isolated due to Fauci. It goes on and on. I did not fall for any of it. Thank God that RFK, Jr. is speaking for people like me.

The criminal elements of Fauci are that he knew precisely what was going on in Wuhan, lied about it and didn’t lock it down. He wanted it to spread around the world.
