“I’ve been wanting to come to your show for months. You have been asking me to come to your show for months and months,” said Fauci during an appearance on “The Rachel Maddow Show” on Friday night.

“And he was just blocked. Let’s call him what he is. He was just blocked because they didn’t like the way you deal with things and they didn’t want me.”

Fauci explained that he was opposed by the old government when the opportunity arose to appear on Maddow’s program. He said he does not anticipate these same obstacles in the new Biden government.

“‘Why would you want to go to Rachel Maddow’s show?’ ‘Well, because I like her and she is very good,’ “he said, portraying an exchange during the previous term.

“I don’t think you’re going to see that now,” continued Fauci, referring to the new government. “You will not see deliberately retaining good people when the press asks for them.”

“I can say that I have no pleasure in being in a position to contradict the president, so it was really something that you didn’t feel you could really say and there would be no repercussions on that,” he said at the time. “The idea that you can come out here and talk about what you know, what the evidence is and what science is, and knowing what it is – let science talk – is a somewhat liberating feeling.”
