was compensated as the most highly compensated government employee. in 2020, his house hold earnings, anthony fauci and his wife made $1.7 million. many people don t know that anthony fauci s wife, christine grady, is the chief bioethicist at the national institutes of health. she makes more than the vice president. north of $235,000. anthony fauci makes more than the president at $456,000. so if you take their salaries, tax on the cost of federal governments at 30%. the two faucis, their house hold income, paid for by taxpayers every year is $900,000. tucker: you described the whole point of journalism, to tell people which their government, which they pay for, is actually doing and randall lane, the kid in the hat, and
the rest you know, of the butt kissers at forbes shut you down. i think it s a shocking story. i really do. at a time of a lot of shocking story. adam, thank for coming on tonight. thank you, tucker. tucker: we ll be right back.
