Appearing on Newsmax, Paul noted "I think it's this — it's one-size-fits-all and his idea that the regular people aren't smart enough to make these regular decisions. So he just wants to treat everybody the same."

"The one-size-fits-all strategy that everybody must get vaccinated ignores the science," the Senator continued, adding "It's mostly that he's not telling the truth once again because he is an elitist, and he thinks we can't handle the truth."

Paul then highlighted the fact that Fauci knowingly lied about the efficacy of face masks.

"In private, he said in emails last spring that most of the masks you can get over the counter don't work because the virus particles are too small and go right through them. That's still true. They don't work. There's no value. Yet, we're mandating them by law because — and this is where I really have a disagreement with Fauci, one he's not telling the truth, and promulgating bad science, pseudoscience," Paul urged.
