New documents released Thursday by Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) reveal that Dr. Anthony Fauci used deep connections to the intelligence community to influence key national security agencies in the debate over the origins of COVID-19.

Paul, chairman of the Senate homeland security committee, published nearly 90 pages of emails and other documents on Thursday detailing how Fauci steered the National Security Council and other bodies in the intelligence apparatus to downplay the theory that the virus came from a biomedical research lab incident in China.

The multidecade document dump demonstrates the degree to which the national security community depended upon Fauci’s expertise as the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases for 20 years prior to the pandemic.

More than 1 million Americans died during the pandemic following the spread of the novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, from Wuhan, China, in late 2019, and Paul has increasingly used his committee chairmanship to investigate Fauci’s alleged role in obscuring the origins of the virus.

Never forget.. Fauci is an alleged criminal. Test that pardon

He’s always been a scumbag. I met him back in the first wave of AIDS. About the time the government started allowing the “partnering” with industry. Of course that also allowed government scientists to profit.

When will they find Fauci floating in the Potomac ?

Someone needs to Introduce Fauci to Carmelo.

Never. His hands were always clean. There’s lots of other folks
I bumped into stuff throughout my career, at several companies. I could always tell when he was involved. From AIDS to anthrax vaccines to resterilizing masks during COVID. His sticky little fingers were always there.
