Although it is easy to get caught up in the "Dear Diary, I am so pretty. And popular," stuff (hundreds of the things), on his tweet announcing the drop the Senator leads with one of the more disgusting entries:
1/9 — My investigation uncovered that Anthony Fauci kept a diary.
— Senator Rand Paul (@SenRandPaul) July 25, 2026
What he wrote privately and what he told the country are two different stories.
Today I'm releasing his entries from December 2019 through December 2022. 🧵 pic.twitter.com/58LvmeYkCN
2/9 Jan. 26, 2020. Fauci writes in his diary: "Now we know the market was not the source, it was the amplifier."
— Senator Rand Paul (@SenRandPaul) July 25, 2026
That is January of 2020. The wet market was already off the table in his own private notes. pic.twitter.com/mz0OzcPHgg
3/9 Feb. 1, 2020. The call that produced Proximal Origin. Twelve scientists.
— Senator Rand Paul (@SenRandPaul) July 25, 2026
Only 2 concluded it was natural. Per Fauci's own notes, "the rest felt that deliberate insertion was possible."

Tony's Diary: What He Wrote Privately vs. What He Said Publicly
July 25, 2026 – Fauci’s personal diary reveals that as early as January 31, 2020, he was told by top virologists that the virus’s furin cleavage site raised real doubts about a natural origin, with about half the scientists on that initial call believing it looked “constructed.” Despite this early private uncertainty, Fauci spent the following years publicly and confidently dismissing the lab leak theory while insisting the science was settled. The diary also documents his private frustration and defensiveness over gain-of-function funding questions tied to EcoHealth Alliance and the Wuhan Institute of Virology — even as he told Congress under oath that no such research had occurred.

Fauci's Side Hustle: How NIH Lined Dr. Anthony Fauci's Pockets with Prize Money
July 24, 2026 – Records released today reveal that Dr. Anthony Fauci, the highest-paid federal official in the U.S. government, stacked up cash prizes worth hundreds of thousands of dollars during COVID, with NIH’s number two official serving as his personal awards manager and his taxpayer-funded staff writing the nominations for him. Some of the prizes came from American institutions, but the largest came from a foreign institution that wired him $900,000.

NEW: Federal Officials Intercepted Undeclared Biological Materials Tied to a U.S. – China Coronavirus-Research Network as Early as 2018
July 24, 2026 – Undeclared coronavirus materials moved between U.S. and Chinese labs as far back as 2018 — years before COVID-19. A courier was caught twice, three years apart…first with a few hidden vials, then with 132 more and a laptop that wasn’t his.
