The Good News: Fauci Says He ‘Will Retire by the End of President Biden’s Term’

If you needed any more reason to anticipate the end of the Biden administration, then I have good news for you.

The godlet who foisted himself on the nation while responding to the covid pandemic says he is retiring.

The bad news: It’s not until January 2025.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, chief medical officer to the president of the United States, said he will retire by the end of President Biden’s term, according to a new report published Monday.Politico reported Monday that Fauci said he will retire by the end of Biden’s term following more than five decades of federal service under seven different presidential administrations.The 81-year-old has been director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) since 1984, Reuters reported. He became the face of the American government’s policies regarding efforts to mitigate the coronavirus pandemic in 2020.

Even scarier is that Fauci will explore other career opportunities rather than return to private life.

Fauci said that he feels like he’s established a good system at NIAID to facilitate a smooth transition at the agency and wants to pursue other career opportunities once he eventually leaves.”Everybody in a position of any influence in my institute, I handpick. So it’s something that I’ve been working on now for four decades. So we have a good system in place,” Fauci told CNN’s Kate Bolduan. “Obviously, you can’t go on forever. I do want to do other things in my career, even though I’m at a rather advanced age. I have the energy and the passion to continue to want to pursue other aspects of my professional career and I’m going to do that some time. I’m not exactly sure when, but I don’t see myself being in this job to the point where I can’t do anything else after that.”

However, there is hope that it could be sooner….if the Republicans take over Congress after the November election.

The bigger question is whether Dr. Fauci will leave before January 2023, when Republicans may well control one or both houses of Congress. Representative Jim Jordan, Republican of Ohio, has already said Republicans will investigate Dr. Fauci if they win control of the House.Some of Dr. Fauci’s friends have been urging him to step down before that happens. But he has said he is not worried about any investigation, noting that Republicans, who have accused him of misleading the public about the origins and severity of the virus, might investigate him regardless of whether he is still working.“My retiring would have nothing to do with avoiding that,” he said in January, adding, “I can’t think of what they would want to investigate except this whole pile of lies that they’re throwing around.”
