‘Sucking His D*ck!’ Adam Carolla Goes Nuclear on CNN Stars for Being Friends With Fauci

Adam Carolla went nuclear on CNN stars Dana Bash and Wolf Blitzer for being “compromised” fake journalists who were more interested in being Dr. Anthony Fauci’s pal than asking him tough questions during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Carolla skewered both anchors during the Friday episode of his podcast with Dr. Drew Pinsky. The veteran comic ranted after Fauci’s diary revealed he was obsessed with his media coverage and traded gossipy text messages with Bash and other prominent mainstream journalists.

“F*ck you! all of em were just texting back and forth with Fauci, sucking his d*ck,” Carolla vented. “So don’t tell me you’re f*cking journalists, you’re hacks. You’re partisan hacks.”

Carolla said a diary entry from April 2021 proved his point, where Fauci wrote about Bash texting him about Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH). She sent the text two days after Fauci got into a shouting match about Covid restrictions with the Republican lawmaker during a House hearing. Bash was on Team Fauci.

“I just watched the whole Jordan thing. Again, you’re a better man than I…. As our friend Wolf Blitzer said to me yesterday – no one would have blamed you if you said simply ‘Mr. Jordan, go f— yourself,’” Bash texted Fauci, according to his diary.

Fauci wrote the next day, “I received a text from Dana Bash pointing out that Vanity Fair recently had a headline that said: Jim Jordan trips over his own a**hole trying to debate Anthony Fauci.”

Carolla was disgusted by the chummy texts.

“That’s journalism,” he said sardonically. “Nobody wanted to know the origins of covid. they were too busy sucking Fauci’s d*ck.”

He added, What kind of interview can we expect ‘journalist’ Wolf Blitzer to conduct with Fauci during Covid? Or Dana Bash, for that matter. And the answer is softball b*llshit.”

Carolla’s scorched earth take comes a week after Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) published Fauci’s pandemic diary. Paul also spearheaded the congressional hearing last week where Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment more than 100 times.

Fauci’s diary included a passage where he speculated he had morphed into “the most famous and talked about person” in America — thanks to the press going “wild” over him. The doc also wrote about a “relaxed” dinner he enjoyed with CNN star Jake Tapper in October 2020, one week after he told Americans to “sacrifice” Thanksgiving.

Carolla ripped Tapper a bit as well during his podcast, saying you could easily make a montage of Tapper and Bash being wrong on Covid and a bunch of other topics over the last decade.
