Dr. Anthony Fauci has responded to Elon Musk's recent broadside against him — despite pledging he would not respond.
What did Musk say?
Over the weekend, Musk ignited a firestorm of controversy when he simultaneously criticized gender pronouns and Dr. Fauci.
"My pronouns are Prosecute/Fauci," Musk tweeted on Sunday.
Even the White House publicly condemned Musk for his tweet.
"They are disgusting, and they are divorced from reality, and we will continue to call that out and be very clear about that," White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said on Monday. "These [remarks] are incredibly dangerous and should be called out."
