'Giving Dr. Fauci taxpayer-funded US Marshal protection after he is no longer an employee of the federal government sets an expensive precedent for future former employees,' David Williams, President of Taxpayers Protection Alliance told DailyMail.com.
' On Thursday, Fauci was pictured with his security detail arriving to and exiting from the ABC studios in New York for an appearance on 'The View' to talk about his book.
Paul has been outspoken in accusing Fauci of obfuscating the origins of the virus.
'Dr. Fauci spent years lying to the American people about the origins of COVID-19 and what practices would keep us safe, and now he has left taxpayers to foot the bill for his security? That's unacceptable.
' Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton told DailyMail.com that Fauci having a detail is 'extraordinary' as he is not employed by the government and pointed out how Independent presidential candidate Robert Kennedy has been denied federal protection.
'It's extraordinary for the government to be providing security for former government official such as Dr Fauci,' Fitton said.
' 'Dr. Fauci was the highest paid employee who now has a very generous pension estimated at more than $400,000, now he continues to cost taxpayers money.
With an estimated net worth of more than $11 million, Dr. Fauci can afford his own security detail.
