Let me tell you something about being a mother in 2021. You sat in a pediatrician’s office, pregnant, and they looked at you like you had two heads if you so much as hesitated on the COVID shot. You got the lecture. You got the pressure. You got the forms shoved across the desk. And if you asked a single question about what this thing might do to the baby growing inside you, you got a smile that didn’t reach the eyes and a line about “following the science.”
Well. The science just came out on Dr. Anthony Fauci’s own phone.
Sen. Ron Johnson released the first batch of texts from Fauci’s old government iPhone this week, and here is what the man who lectured America for two straight years wrote privately to CDC Director Rochelle Walensky and Dr. Vivek Murthy in January 2021: “Since many people have significant cytokines storm and fever after the 2nd dose, this theoretically could be associated with miscarriage in the 1st trimester.”

The man who went on every television screen in the country and told pregnant women to get the shot was texting his buddies behind closed doors that he was worried it could cause miscarriages. And we are supposed to believe this is the guy who just wanted what was best for our families?
Johnson put it perfectly. “We tell pregnant women don’t even have a glass of wine and yet we coerce them, convince them, sometimes mandated them, to get an experimental gene therapy as early as the first trimester.” He called it “truly sick.” He is being polite. I have four kids. I know exactly what kind of woman gets told she is selfish for asking questions. That woman is me. That woman is every mother I know.

The study tracked 827 pregnancies exposed to mRNA vaccines. 104 ended in what the authors called “spontaneous abortions.” But here is the part that made me set my coffee down: 700 of those women got their shots in the third trimester. The 104 miscarriages happened among the 127 women who got injected in the first or second trimester. Johnson did the math that nobody at the CDC apparently wanted to do. 104 out of 127. That is not a rounding error. That is a number somebody buried.
“They knew it,” Johnson said. “They’re not that stupid. They’re just that devious to play with the statistics that way to misinform, to lie to the American public.”
And where is Fauci now? Hiding behind a law firm that did not even bother to respond to Fox News Digital for comment. His old pal Sen. Rand Paul already held him in contempt of Congress for pleading the Fifth like some mob accountant, and that referral is now sitting at the Department of Justice. Fauci pleaded the Fifth. Let that sink in. The man who told you to trust him with your body invoked his right against self-incrimination the second someone with subpoena power came knocking.

Because every mother who got called a conspiracy theorist for asking basic questions about what was going into her body and her baby’s body deserves to hear every single word on that phone. We were not crazy. We were not ignorant. We were paying attention while the people in charge were hoping we would not.
They thought we were too busy packing school lunches to notice. We noticed.
