President Biden's chief medical adviser, Anthony Fauci, is the highest-paid employee in the entire federal government.
The nation's leading infectious disease expert made $417,608 in 2019 and is projected to net approximately $2.5 million in salary from 2019 to 2024, according to Freedom of Information Act requests obtained by Forbes. Fauci, whose salary is funded by taxpayers, received a pay bump in 2014 when his paycheck increased from $335,000 to the current $417,608. Fauci raked in $3.6 million from 2010 to 2019.
The United States's 4 million federal employees are usually subject to a pay cap, dubbed level IV, which is $172,500. However, Fauci and other doctors and scientists employed by the government are exempted from the cap to make their salaries more competitive to the private sector.
Fauci, who has been the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases since 1980, outearned former President Donald Trump ($400,000), former Vice President Mike Pence ($235,100), Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts ($270,700), and Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi ($223,500). Three other doctors, all from the Health and Human Services Department, earned more in federal salary than the president but fell short of Fauci's pay.
The health authority appeared almost daily during the beginning stages of the coronavirus pandemic. Trump sparred with Fauci over the handling of the COVID-19 crisis and even retweeted a message to "#FireFauci" in April after the virus was spreading on U.S. soil.
Fauci, who now answers to Biden, reflected on his time with Trump and called the 45th president "the skunk at the picnic" who was "saying things that didn't make any scientific sense."

Fauci’s analogy missed the mark —— President Trump was the skunk at the public trough pissing on the ravenous swine already there.
Parenthetically, Fauci rakes in a lot more than his tax dollar salary.

Fauci doubled his mask kickback with this one:

Why stop at two? Three masks, four masks, five masks is even more profitable. The sky is the limit.
Aside from Fauci mandating masks, he does okay with the hypodermic needles needed to inject vaccines —— on top of the profits he scoops up from his patents:
Biotech companies are racing to patent vaccines and profit from disease. Dr. Anthony Fauci has been a dedicated vaccine advocate at N.I.H. for 36 years. He demanded billions to create an HIV vaccine. It never materialized…. Dr. Fauci has little interest in treatments that can't be patented. Is it because NIH stands to make hundreds of millions in royalties when they partner with pharma on blockbuster global vaccines? Dr. Fauci delivers billions of taxpayer dollars to pharma to promote vaccine schemes while public health declines. Dr. Fauci secured $2 billion for a future coronavirus vaccine while N.I.H. partnered with biotech giant, Moderna, to share in the profits.

There is an army of parasites living a might better than real well on tax dollars.
“If each employee used 13 sick days and took 20 vacation days in addition to the 10 federal holidays, it would cost taxpayers an estimated $22.6 billion annually,” the report said.
'Mapping the Swamp' report finds 30,000 feds earn more than any governor

The Parasite Class is absorbing the nation’s without contributing anything of value. The XVI Amendment created the largest —— and the highest paid —— Parasite Class in the history of the world.
If the income tax is not repealed before Scummy Joe Biden & Company are stopped, Americans will find themselves living in a Third World country before 2024.
NOTE: Illegal aliens and UNITED NATIONS ECONOMIC REFUGEES brought in for cheap labor are absolutely necessary in order to maintain the existing wealthy Parasite Class’ lifestyle. Steve Cortes talking to Tucker Carlson is correct in laying the blame on Democrats insofar as he goes, while he fails to include the systemic implications of a destructive wealthy Parasite Class protected and funded by both parties:

Finally, the number of parasites the Smithsonian feeds does not compare with education and medical industry parasites, but Smitty is one of the largest second tier of public troughs built to date. In 2007 Oliver North reported on just one group of entrenched parasites:
Lawrence M. Small, the Smithsonian's top executive, was paid $884,733 last year -- more than twice the compensation of the president of the United States.

A month later:
Smithsonian Secretary Lawrence M. Small, the banker who took over the world's largest museum complex seven years ago, has resigned under pressure following revelations regarding his housing allowance and office and travel expenditures.
God only knows how much Smithsonian executives earn today. I could look it up but why bother. I never heard of federal government parasites taking a pay cut:
. . . Sen. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) called Small's "Dom Perignon lifestyle." Thursday the full Senate voted to freeze a $17 million increase in the institution's proposed 2008 budget.
The measure, sponsored by Grassley, would have remained in effect until the Smithsonian reformed how business is done in the secretary's office and would have capped salaries for Smithsonian executives at $400,000, the current pay for the president.

Let me say it again for the umpteenth time. Talking about tinkering with the tax code is a waste of time as long as the XVI Amendment replenishes the public purse with the nation’s wealth.
