A Giddy Dr. Fauci Just Threw Trump Under The Bus After Finally Being 'Liberated' To 'Let The Science Speak' Under Biden
C-SPAN 3

After President Joe Biden chose the nation's top infectious disease expert, Dr. Anthony Fauci, to head his pandemic response team, Fauci reappeared at the White House for a press briefing after many months away.

Looking noticeably happier than he did while appearing for the Trump administration, Dr. Fauci described how different it felt to be working for a President who prioritized science.

Asked about the difference between the two administration's approach to the virus, Fauci replied:

"I take no pleasure at all in being in a situation of contradicting the President ... The idea that you can get up here and talk about what you know, what the evidence, what the science is, and know that's it - let the science speak - it is somewhat of a liberating feeling."

Fauci also added:

"One of the new things in this administration is if you don't have the answer, don't guess. Just say you don't know the answer."

In other interviews, Dr. Fauci stated confidently the Trump administration's avoidance of hard truths lead to unnecessary deaths.


Many people online noticed Fauci's change in mood and felt the same way.



The contrast between Fauci's past and present appearances was stark.



Twitter was quick to turn cheerful Fauci into a celebratory meme.


It seems Fauci has had the last laugh.


Dr. Anthony Fauci, hopefully, has a bright future ahead of him working for an administration that takes his analyses a little more seriously than the last one.

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves.
