Katie Miller once turned to Dr. Anthony Fauci for reassurance during a frightening COVID-19 infection. Recently released diary entries now reveal the extent of that private rapport, which she has been trying to explain away as a calculated manoeuvre.
Newly released COVID records describe private interactions between Anthony Fauci and Katie Miller
The records, made public by Senator Rand Paul, show the former White House COVID adviser personally consoling Miller as she battled the virus while 10 weeks pregnant. The exchanges stand in contrast to her present-day attacks, which include calls for the scientist to be imprisoned.
Dr. Anthony Fauci’s journal details frequent, intimate check-ins with Katie Miller at the height of the pandemic in 2020, when she served as communications director to then-Vice President Mike Pence.
In a May 9 entry, Fauci wrote, “I am calling katie frequently to check on her couple time per day. She is very anxious about getting very ill since she is 10 weeks pregnant. Tonight she had an anxiety reaction. I calmed her over the phone.”
The diary, which mentions the Millers multiple times, has led to Katie Miller on the defensive. The conservative podcaster and wife of White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller now insists the friendly dynamic was a deliberate strategy. “He was not my doctor.. was not my friend,” she told NOTUS. “He was a work colleague who called me for work purposes, and in the course of a phone call, you would discuss other things.”
Miller claimed she maintained the appearance of closeness to prevent Fauci from leaking information. “I understood who he was, and I understood how to manage somebody like him,” she said, adding the approach was devised so the doctor “did not leak against me or my husband.”
The diary’s release follows Fauci’s appearance before the Senate Homeland Security Committee. There, he refused to answer questions by invoking his Fifth Amendment rights. Senator Paul had redacted 19 mentions of the Millers before publication.
