Washington Post columnist Josh Rogin, who stood out in the media over the past year for his reporting on the possibility the coronavirus pandemic may have leaked from a Chinese lab, said Tuesday that Dr. Anthony Fauci was wrong to deny the National Institutes of Health ever funded "gain of function" research in Wuhan.
Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky. and Fauci had a fierce exchange on the issue again Tuesday, as the White House medical adviser angrily said Paul didn't know what he was talking about. But Rogin said Fauci was playing word games.
"Hey guys, [Rand Paul] was right and Fauci was wrong," he tweeted. "The NIH was funding gain of function research in Wuhan but NIH pretended it didn't meet their "gain of function" definition to avoid their own oversight mechanism. SorryNotSorry if that doesn't fit your favorite narrative."
As the lab-leak theory has gained credibility after being widely dismissed in the press last year, there's more attention being paid to monies given to the Wuhan Institute of Virology, known for its bat coronavirus research, and so-called "gain of function" methods, which involves manipulating viruses to make them more infectious for research.
Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, has repeatedly denied any NIH money went to such research in Wuhan, but his organization has given millions of dollars in grant money to the EcoHealth Alliance, a research nonprofit that funneled at least $600,000 to Wuhan coronavirus research.
Paul cited during his questioning of Fauci that Wuhan researcher, "bat lady" Dr. Shi Zhengli, wrote in 2017 that she took two bat coronavirus genes and "combined them with a SARS-related backbone to create new viruses that are not found in nature."

He is on CNN often
Usually paired up with a “natural origin” scientist to debate
The Host lately has been taking Rogins side it seems
The tide may be turning
Fauci has been caught in a major lie, and he cannot talk his way out of this, unless there is no further investigation into his apparent involvement in this World Wide crime against humanity. So, if the Republicans are beginning to actually stand up and fight, this is a good place to start. Rand Paul should be able to get this rolling, to the point that at least Fauci is forced to resign. But I think there is a lot more to find out, and the Democrats are not fully aware of what it is. This will get interesting.
Disgraceful!

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”
Does Fauci follow the A. Hitler style of lying?
“His primary rules were: never allow the public to cool off; never admit a fault or wrong; never concede that there may be some good in your enemy; never leave room for alternatives; never accept blame; concentrate on one enemy at a time and blame him for everything that goes wrong; people will believe a big lie sooner than a little one; and if you repeat it frequently enough people will sooner or later believe it.”

We are being lied to every day by.these communist totalitarians.
The tide is NOT turning.
It’s called COVER YOUR COLLECTIVE ASSES!
Fauci outright LIED to Congress.
Bill Clinton was impeached for lying to Congress!
Fauci needs to be arrested and thrown in solitary until he decides to tell all!
He’s a traitor.
Charge him with aiding and abetting the CCP’s bio weapon.
No one in their right mind believes covid simply leaked from the Wuhan lab.
