Despite repeated denials by NIAID Director Anthony Fauci that his agency used American taxpayer money to fund Chinese gain-of-function research on bats infected with coronaviruses, the National Institutes of Health – which oversees NIAID – admitted in a letter to House Oversight Committee ranking member James Comer, R-Ky., that a "limited experiment" was indeed conducted.
Comer's fellow Kentuckian, Sen. Rand Paul, joined "Fox News Primetime" to react to the bombshell, as well as further reflect on his often-viral sparring with Fauci during Senate hearings on the matter.
Earlier this year, Paul accused Fauci of "obfuscating the truth" and at one point asked if he wished to rescind prior remarks given that it is a felony to lie to Congress.
The Brooklyn-born doctor responded that "if anyone is lying, it is you."
Paul told host Will Cain the story should not be about him, but about America's health and national security:
"Five million people died from a virus that came out of a lab -- wouldn’t we want to know, wouldn’t we want to prevent this from happening again? This virus is very deadly, what if we had a virus that had a 15% mortality rate?"

Rand killing it as usual...
Mitch supports Fauci.
(that a “limited experiment” was indeed conducted.)
So limited, in fact, that Obama and Fauci did a photo op. 🤔🤔🤔

Fauci is a prevaricator of the first order. He may actually have avoided perjury when he said the NIH/ALPHASWAMP “did not fund gain of function”. Because they didn’t. They funded someone else, who then went to fund gain of function.
See how it works?
Hillary did not pay a foreign spy to write up the phony Russian Steele Dossier Hoax. She hired lawyers, who hired a consultancy, who hired Steele, who spread it to the FBI, who spread it to the media.
All their crimes they do at arms-length with several cutouts or intermediaries who would take the fall if there is ever any accountability for these crimes at all.
Biden honchos are worried that there is political organizing going on that may hurt their 2022 mid-term chances the way Obama got crushed in 2010. So they call up some teachers group, who writes a letter to the DOJ, who then attempts to suppress parents from speech and political organizing. All hands off. But 100% orchestrated from those at the top.
Summit News: CORONA VIRUS: 10/22/2021
Senator Rand Paul, who was again proven right after the National Institutes of Health admitted it did fund gain of function experiments on bat coronaviruses in Wuhan, has blasted Anthony Fauci for lying for a year and a half about research that “could destroy civilization.”
Appearing on Fox News Thursday, Paul urged that Fauci has intentionally “been parsing words” as a way of never admitting that gain of function took place in NIH funded Chinese labs.
“They still to this day are trying to get around the truth,” Paul said, adding “They say ‘well it was unexpected that it gained function’.”
The Senator continued, noting that Fauci’s “declination is this: it’s inadvertent, we didn’t know they were going to gain function. That is what a gain of function experiment is,’” Paul explained.
“You don’t know when you combine two viruses that they will be more deadly, but it might be if you have half a brain you know if you combine two viruses it might be more deadly,” Paul proclaimed.
The Senator also noted that while he has referred Fauci to the Justice Department for investigation, Attorney General Merrick B. Garland is more concerned with targeting “moms complaining about what they are teaching in school.”

ARREST FRAUD, COLLINS and the ECO HEALTH CREEP!! NOW!!!!
Fauci and company have been playing Fast and Loose with the Truth since this began, how Many Thousands of Innocent people died because of his Deliberate False Information regarding treatments that he then had OUTLAWED??
They should all be Tried, Convicted and Hanged
I wonder if Rand Paul is the only physician in Congress.I’ll bet that Fauxi would want there to be none.
Fauci is the Godfather of COVID
One of our senators from Louisiana is a doctor - Bill Cassidy. The rat RINOvoted to impeach President Trump. It seems there are more. Funny that Rand is the only one questioning fauci, isn’t it?
The Brooklyn-born doctor responded that "if anyone is lying, it is you."Did the pretend reporter from Fox News think we need to know where Fauci was born? Does that make Fauci more, or less relevant to the story?
BTW, RandFan I can't believe you got suspended...Too Much Rand
Thanks for your kind words. I just need to be more careful :D
Suspended from where?
