According to a new report by Forbes, infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci is the highest paid employee in the U.S. federal government.

In 2019, his salary was $417,608, the highest salary out of all four million federal government employees.

In comparison, Speaker Nancy Pelosi will earn $223,500 this year, U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts will make $270,700 and Members in the House of Representatives and Senators will make $174,000, Forbes reports.

Dr. Fauci even made more than the salary of the President of the United States, which is $400,000.

In a ten-year period between 2010 and 2019, Fauci made $3.6 million in salary. Since 2014, Fauci’s pay increased from $335,000 to the current $417,608.

In an Instagram interview in August 2020, actor Matthew McConaughey asked Fauci if he had millions of dollars invested in the vaccines.

Fauci laughed and said, “Matthew, no, I got zero! I am a government worker. I have a government salary,” failing to mention that his “government salary” was the largest in the entire federal government.

Oklahoma Mother Sues School District After Alleged Assault by Trans Student

An Oklahoma mother has filed a lawsuit against her local school district after her 15-year-old daughter was allegedly “severely beaten” by a 17-year-old transgender student in the girls bathroom at Edmond Memorial High School. The incident, which occurred on October 26, 2022, has prompted legal action seeking $75,000 in damages for the victim’s physical and mental injuries, pain and suffering, and emotional distress.

The lawsuit claims that the transgender student had made threats of violence against the victim in the past. He was even searched by police after another student reported the threats. It also references a recently signed Oklahoma law that requires students in public schools to use restrooms corresponding to the sex listed on their birth certificates.

According to the report obtained by Fox News Digital, the transgender student, identified as “A,” entered the girls’ bathroom and engaged in an argument with the victim, referred to as “V.” The confrontation escalated into a physical fight, during which “A” allegedly punched, kicked, and pulled “V’s” hair. The victim and a friend who tried to intervene both sustained injuries, with “V” suffering potential concussion and facial injuries.

Following the incident, Edmond Public Schools Superintendent Angela Grunewald addressed the matter in a YouTube video, explaining that if a parent enrolls their child as a certain gender and the child presents themselves accordingly, it is not something that would be questioned. Grunewald also mentioned that the transgender student’s birth certificate did not indicate a gender, and at the time of enrollment, birth certificates were not required for high school students.

It’s worth noting that in May, Oklahoma agreed not to enforce a ban on sex reassignment surgery and care for minors.

This lawsuit raises important questions regarding school safety, transgender rights, and the responsibility of educational institutions to ensure a secure environment for all students. The case will likely contribute to the ongoing discussions surrounding policies related to transgender students in schools.
