A lot of crookedness, as I suspected, was going on in Fauci Land. The guy is an egomaniac (his home office being plastered with photos, paintings, and articles about himself).
He has lied under oath to Congress, lied to President Trump, and made millions for himself, family, and friends. All the while aiding the CCP.
The bombshells from the Congressional investigation into the lab leak coverup by top federal health bureaucrats just keep coming.
Now Dr. Anthony S. Fauci is squarely in the inquiry’s crosshairs.
Yesterday, the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic released a 35-page report showing Dr. David Morens, a top advisor to Fauci, went to extraordinary lengths to evade laws on federal record-keeping and transparency.
Morens tried to hide his discussions with Peter Daszak, the British zoologist whose non-profit group had received federal funding for risky coronavirus research at the Chinese lab that is the likely source of Sars-Cov-2.
Over and over, Morens told Daszak and other scientists not to use his federal email account at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), which was subject to Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests from the public and journalists.
Morens was not shy about his motives, either. In November 2021, he even explained to Dr. Gerald Keusch, a Boston infectious-disease researcher and confidante, that he deliberately sent news articles using his official account. Why? Morens told Keusch that doing so would interfere with FOIA requests by filling his government email with useless and irrelevant documents:
You may have noticed that I have intentionally forwarded you news clips I get daily, sent from my govt email, but that is ok as long as you don’t reply to that email. I have done this because this should not show up in a FOIA [and] is innocuous as it’s just forwarding a third party item already in the public domain…
Please pass this on to Peter [Daszak] and I ask you both NOTHING gets sent to me except to my gmail, and make sure that what gets sent to my gmail doesn’t have a cc to another government employee who could be FOIA’d.

But Morens wasn’t just protecting himself.
He wanted to help Fauci, whom he appears to have revered. Morens made clear Fauci also wanted to evade federal transparency and recordkeeping rules.
In April 2021, he emailed Daszak he would “either send stuff to Tony on his private gmail, or hand it to him at work or at his house” because Fauci “is too smart to let colleagues send him stuff that could cause trouble.”
A month later, he referred to a “‘secret’ back channel” he and others used to communicate with Fauci.
And in July, Morens wrote that:
…today, to my total surprise, my boss Tony actually ASKED me to speak to the National Geographic on the record about origins. I interpret this to mean that our government is lightening up but that Tony doesn't want his fingerprints on origin stories.
Fauci comes off as a scientific version of Louisiana governor Earl Long, Huey’s lesser-known but equally corrupt brother, who told his henchmen:
Don't write anything you can phone. Don't phone anything you can talk. Don't talk anything you can whisper. Don't whisper anything you can smile. Don't smile anything you can nod. Don't nod anything you can wink.
As the committee wrote in the memo, the emails raise “serious questions of whether Dr. Fauci took part in a conspiracy… to hide official records regarding the origins of COVID-19.”

A top deputy to Dr. Anthony S. Fauci hid his contacts with Peter Daszak, the conduit for the federal money that went to the Chinese lab that's Covid's likely source. Will ANYONE be held accountable?

FOIA, lies, and subpoenas
