Fauci flip flops during Congress grilling: Ex-White House doctor ducks more than 100 questions about Covid and admits he approved risky Wuhan coronavirus research proposal without reading it

Dr Anthony Fauci evaded more than 100 questions about Covid, the lab leak theory and his ties to Wuhan during a landmark Congressional hearing Monday.

House Republicans who quizzed the ex-White House advisor said he 'played semantics' to avoid conceding that he funded dangerous research in China that is feared to have started the pandemic.

Dr Fauci, 82, also admitted that he signed off on millions of dollars worth of grants without reviewing the proposals - and appeared to admit his agency had little oversight of the foreign labs it bankrolled.

The all-day probe on Monday will be followed by another seven hours of questioning behind closed doors today.

Republican Congressman Brad Wenstrup of Ohio, who is heading up the hearings, said: ‘Dr Fauci’s testimony today [Monday] uncovered drastic and systemic failures in America’s public health systems.

‘Clearly, the American people and the United States government are operating with completely different expectations about the responsibilities of our public health leaders and the accountability of our public health agencies.’

According to House Select Committee on Coronavirus, Dr Fauci denied remembering key details of the response ‘more than 100 times’.

The GOP also said he backtracked on his earlier insistence that the US did not fund experiments that could make viruses more transmissible or dangerous, known as ‘gain of function’ research.

Dr Fauci’s marathon testimony has been a long time coming. The House subcommittee on the coronavirus compelled him to appear before members nearly a year ago, but the finer details were only finalized late last year.

Congress, particularly Republicans, have criticized Dr Fauci’s policies to tamp down the spread of Covid in the early days, including flip-flopping advice on masks, and advocating for lockdowns, vaccine mandates and school closures.

I don’t believe a real $cientist would fail to read any details of an important document, such as a research proposal.

The Wuhan Cover-Up: Review of Bobby Kennedy’s Crucial Book
MERYL NASS JANUARY 1, 2024

The Wuhan Cover-Up gives you the facts, the history, and the understanding you need to grasp what is actually happening, right now.

If enough of us read it, we will gain the knowledge and strength in numbers to stop and defund the biowarfare industry, revoke these terrible laws, and lay down our deep, unconscious fears regarding contagion.

To think that Fauci was awarded a Presidential Commendation on January 19, 2021.

Deborah Birx should be held accountable too. She knew enough was rotten so she got out.

“...drastic and systemic failures in America’s public health systems.” Well, that might be true, but this gives Fauci a pass. He ABUSED his position, seized power to which he has not authorized/entitled, and lied most every time he was on camera.
And let’s remember, he does not have several of the attributes of the protected classes: he is white; descended from Western Europeans. He will still get treated better than anyone arrested in relation to the January 6 events (with exception of Ray Epps).
“Safe and effective” LOL

Fauchi: I thought the Wuhan coronavirus research proposal was about beagle dogs and orphans being torture so I naturally approved it.
The research turned out better then I had hope. The virus and the lies told on how to combat it killed many and wrecked the economy of many countries.
