Dr. Anthony Fauci should face prosecution for testifying under oath before Congress that he did not send taxpayer dollars to Wuhan to conduct gain of function research after his denials were contradicted by the National Institutes of Health, Rep. Devin Nunes said Sunday.
“Our committee did a year-long investigation and we talked about it back in May, when we put out an official report, so he was clearly on notice then,” the California Republican said on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures With Maria Bartiromo,” where he appeared with former acting director of national intelligence Ric Grenell.
But after that, Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, testified twice under grilling by Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., that the funding didn’t happen.
“That’s simply not true,” said Nunes. “He’s long been on notice, he knows this, and now the question is, is will the Department of Justice do anything about it.”
This week, a letter from NIH Principal Deputy Director Lawrence Tabak to the House Committee on Oversight and Reform reveals that EcoHealth, a New York-based non-profit did not comply with a mandated report that would have brought a supplemental review from the agency.
Grenell agreed that Fauci should be held accountable for his testimony, as he has been “unequivocal in denying this.”
“This is a real problem,” he said. “He not only doubled down, tripled down, but he promised that unequivocally this wasn’t even close and it wasn’t a spin. I think this is total deception…we just saw nine Republicans, nine of Devin’s colleagues get so outraged at someone not showing up to Congress in the form of Steve Bannon. They should be at the forefront of now protecting Congress’ integrity.”

Won’t happen.
He is too much of a hero to the left
Not just a hero to the “Left” (whatever that means). He is just plain a hero. A lot more people in the US would have dies from Covid and other infectious diseases over the years if not for him.
Oh Really?
Educate me. Give me SPECIFIC examples of what Fauci did that saved lives during Covid and other infectious diseases over the years?
Again be SPECIFIC.
You mean, like when he told us NOT to wear masks?
When was Fauci elected? I can’t seem to remember.
The microbes are coming home to roost.
Forget Wuhan – he oversaw the torture of PUPPIES!
