Fauci Just Humiliated Rand Paul In Front Of The Entire World
Five years led to this. Trump’s Supreme Court threat died in silence. Comey called it revenge. A teachers union froze NVIDIA cold.
Rand Paul has spent five years hunting one man, and Wednesday he finally got him in the room. It didn’t go the way he planned.
That’s the story of this whole edition. The regime keeps building traps, and this week almost none of them closed. A Supreme Court deadline expired without so much as a filing. A federal indictment came back for round two and immediately got called out as revenge. A city that Big Tech assumed was already bought froze the deal cold.
Moments like that usually get forgotten by tomorrow unless people like us keep them alive. Hit the ❤️ like button and restack this before you keep reading. A like tells the app more people should see this. A restack sends it straight to someone who’s never heard of us.
Paid subscribers get something else today too. Right below, I’m putting twenty-three years of campaign experience into breaking down exactly why the Senate map just got easier for us—the kind of read you won’t find anywhere else. If you’ve been on the free list for a while, this is a good day to fix that:
COMEY CALLS OUT TRUMP’S REVENGE MACHINE
Seashells. James Comey is facing a federal indictment because of a photo of seashells on a beach arranged to read “86 47”—posted to Instagram in May 2025, which the Justice Department has decided constitutes a threat against Trump.
Late Tuesday his lawyers filed 54 pages in North Carolina federal court asking a judge to throw the whole thing out, calling it payback. Their argument leans on the regime’s own words: “Ample objective evidence—much of which comes directly from government officials’ own public statements and admissions—establishes that the President’s animus toward Mr. Comey led to this vindictive and selective prosecution.” They also allege Trump had the Secret Service watching Comey over the post.
The former FBI director has beaten this once already. A judge tossed the first indictment in November after ruling prosecutor Lindsey Halligan was never lawfully appointed. Rather than take the hint, the regime went back and got a second one.
FAUCI REFUSED TO WALK INTO PAUL’S TRAP
GOP Sen. Rand Paul subpoenaed Dr. Anthony Fauci, published a thousand pages of his private pandemic diaries, and told anyone with a microphone he wanted the man behind bars. Wednesday morning Fauci sat down at the witness table and declined to answer a single question.
He explained why first. Paul’s “obvious obsession with calling for my prosecution” and “repeated slanderous comments” left him one conclusion, he said: “the sole reason he is calling me before this committee is to get me to say something that could vindicate his repeated public pledges that I end up, in his words, ‘behind bars.’” Then he took the Fifth.
Paul had spent Tuesday insisting there was no danger to the retired immunologist. “There’s no risk to perjury if you tell the truth,” he told a reporter, before helpfully listing everything Fauci could confess to instead. Fauci gave him none of it.
TRUMP’S BIRTHRIGHT FIGHT DIED IN SILENCE
Nothing appeared on the Supreme Court’s docket Monday—which was the last day Trump had to ask the justices to reconsider killing his birthright citizenship order. The deadline simply came and went with no filing at all.
He’d made a lot of noise about it on July 8, announcing in capital letters that he would be seeking a rehearing IMMEDIATELY and calling the ruling a miscarriage of justice that would destroy America.
The ruling itself came June 30 in Trump v. Barbara, six votes to three, holding that he can’t strip citizenship from babies born on American soil—the executive order behind it had already been frozen by lower courts before it ever reached a single family.
Reporters asked the White House and the Justice Department what happened. Neither answered.
HILLSBORO STOPS BIG TECH’S LAND GRAB
Oregon’s largest teachers union sued Hillsboro last month over $84 million in tax breaks the city quietly handed NVIDIA, CoreWeave, and a handful of other tech giants to build 17 data centers. Monday night the city council caved in front of everybody.
They called a special meeting and voted a 120-day pause on new data centers into effect on the spot. Any project that hadn’t already filed is locked out, and the council can extend the pause another six months when the clock runs out.
Mayor Beach Pace didn’t dress it up as anything but surrender to public pressure. “The Hillsboro City Council has heard the questions and concerns from our community about data centers in Hillsboro,” she said.
Big Tech treated this town like a zoning department with an open cash drawer, and a teachers union slammed it shut.

IN THE COMMENTS—Describe Dr. Fauci in 5 words or less:
I think Rand Paul humiliated himself by asking stupid questions and trying to make Fauci look bad which is impossible to do. That show was not worth anyone’s time except to show how desperate the Republicans are.
Fauci: unshakable even under absurd pressure!
