Dr. Fauci thought Biden’s stroke of a pen would protect him from public scrutiny and from ending up behind bars, but his get-out-of-jail-free card is worthless. We can’t let this opportunity slip away. We MUST prosecute Dr. Fauci.

Each name opens the page’s Vipima page, with its own figures and its link to Meta’s Ad Library.
Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
