Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) humiliated himself while trying to smear Dr. Anthony Fauci during a congressional hearing. Marshall demanded to see Fauci’s financial records while insinuating that Fauci was involved in “shenanigans.”
Fauci reminded the Republican that his financial records are, and have been, open to Congress:
Senator, what are you talking about? My financial disclosures are public knowledge and have been so. You are getting amazingly wrong information.
Sen. Marshall also brought up a DARPA conspiracy theory video promoted by the right wing group Project Veritas, but got shot down again by Fauci:
It really pains me to have to point out to the American public how incorrect you are … once again, you are completely and unequivocally incorrect.

Fauci also slammed Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) for engaging in fundraising by attacking him.

Fauci went on to school Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL), who supports using a horse dewormer, Ivermectin, as a “cure” for COVID-19 because it’s cheaper than a new Pfizer pill that is proven to help COVID-19 patients:
