Fraudci testified before Congress and denied funding dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Lab.
Rand Paul brought the receipts to support his claims, but the left screamed that he was a liar.
And they groveled at the feet of their savior, Fraudci.
However, a new FOIA lawsuit led to the release of 900+ pages of documents proving U.S. dollars funded the research in Wuhan.
The documents detail the work of EcoHealth Alliance to fund bat coronavirus research in China.
EcoHealth Alliance used funding from grant proposals provided by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.
The institute ran by Fraudci.
The documents raise additional concerns about the virus originating from a lab leak.
Scientists understood the risk of their bat coronavirus research, but proceeded any way.
Fraudci, Peter Daszak, and mainstream media all lied about it.

The documents make it clear that assertions by the NIH Director, Francis Collins, and the NIAID Director, Anthony Fauci, that the NIH did not support gain-of-function research or potential pandemic pathogen enhancement at WIV are untruthful.

2/ But yesterday, the very same @theintercept admits it sought documents about Fauci-funded research by EcoHealth (Peter Daszak's group) that "raise additional questions about the theory that the pandemic may have begun in a lab accident."https://t.co/R4UbfZSCWa

3/ Specifically, the documents the Intercept sought — which I'll bet any amount of money they thought would debunk Paul & vindicate Fauci — instead did the opposite (oops). The docs more than ever link Daszak's research to possible COVID origins. pic.twitter.com/H8JMBUIRNb

Fauci, Collins, NIAID, NIH supported dangerous coronavirus research. And they were “untruthful” about it, documents obtained by @theintercept show. Gain-of-function. Yes, that kind. 👇#FireFauci https://t.co/b1z1IQOPhB

New FOIA documents shows Fauci funded high-risk bat virus research at Wuhan Lab from 2014 to 2020

Sounds like Fraudci committed perjury to me.
We can shout from the rooftops that Rand Paul was right for all the leftists and Faucists to hear.
Surprise surprise – Fauci lied again
And I was right about his agency funding novel Coronavirus research at Wuhan.
Read this thread and the papers released. https://t.co/zQizKXLdbd
— Rand Paul (@RandPaul) September 7, 2021
Rand Paul was right. Anthony Fauci lied to Congress. Media need to run some corrections. https://t.co/Aw713KRFhi
— Phil Kerpen (@kerpen) September 7, 2021
Dr. Fauci literally LIED to @RandPaul about supporting gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab.
This is going to get interesting…
Read the newly released documents: https://t.co/62OyLNZeZv https://t.co/kHhNTEiskl

Based on these documents Dr. Fauci clearly lied about whether American taxpayer dollars were used to fund gain of function virus research in Wuhan, China. https://t.co/8sCpMZ2Qqr

Fauci Lied To Congresshttps://t.co/esPd7w29Gd
— Tim Pool (@Timcast) September 7, 2021
So…new evidence documents that Fauci’s lied (under oath) — US tax dollars did fund Wuhan gain-of-function research.
Think of some of the other major lies we’re supposed to just accept:
Masks work
Biden legitimately won
Inflation is transitoryhttps://t.co/BnXbCtnPle— Steve Cortes (@CortesSteve) September 7, 2021
What’s most shocking is that the far-left Intercept shared the explosive documents.
Whatever their reason for running the story, it’s placed the microscope on Fraudci’s lies again.
From The Intercept:
NEWLY RELEASED DOCUMENTS provide details of U.S.-funded research on several types of coronaviruses at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China. The Intercept has obtained more than nine hundred pages of documents detailing the work of the EcoHealth Alliance, a U.S.-based health organization that used federal money to fund bat coronavirus research at the Chinese laboratory. The trove of documents includes two previously unpublished grant proposals that were funded by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, as well as project updates relating to the EcoHealth Alliance’s research, which has been scrutinized amid increased interest in the origins of the pandemic.
The documents were released in connection with ongoing Freedom of Information Act litigation by The Intercept against the National Institutes of Health. The Intercept is making the full documents available to the public.
“This is a roadmap to the high-risk research that could have led to the current pandemic,” said Gary Ruskin, executive director of U.S. Right To Know, a group that has been investigating the origins of Covid-19.
One of the grants, titled “Understanding the Risk of Bat Coronavirus Emergence,” outlines an ambitious effort led by EcoHealth Alliance president Peter Daszak to screen thousands of bat samples for novel coronaviruses. The research also involved screening people who work with live animals. The documents contain several critical details about the research in Wuhan, including the fact that key experimental work with humanized mice was conducted at a biosafety level 3 lab at Wuhan University Center for Animal Experiment — and not at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, as was previously assumed. The documents raise additional questions about the theory that the pandemic may have begun in a lab accident, an idea that Daszak has aggressively dismissed.
The bat coronavirus grant provided the EcoHealth Alliance with a total of $3.1 million, including $599,000 that the Wuhan Institute of Virology used in part to identify and alter bat coronaviruses likely to infect humans. Even before the pandemic, many scientists were concerned about the potential dangers associated with such experiments. The grant proposal acknowledges some of those dangers: “Fieldwork involves the highest risk of exposure to SARS or other CoVs, while working in caves with high bat density overhead and the potential for fecal dust to be inhaled.”
Alina Chan, a molecular biologist at the Broad Institute, said the documents show that the EcoHealth Alliance has reason to take the lab leak theory seriously. “In this proposal, they actually point out that they know how risky this work is. They keep talking about people potentially getting bitten — and they kept records of everyone who got bitten,” Chan said. “Does EcoHealth have those records? And if not, how can they possibly rule out a research-related accident?”
According to Richard Ebright, a molecular biologist at Rutgers University, the documents contain critical information about the research done in Wuhan, including about the creation of novel viruses. “The viruses they constructed were tested for their ability to infect mice that were engineered to display human type receptors on their cell,” Ebright wrote to The Intercept after reviewing the documents. Ebright also said that the documents make it clear that two different types of novel coronaviruses were able to infect humanized mice. “While they were working on SARS-related coronavirus, they were carrying out a parallel project at the same time on MERS-related coronavirus,” Ebright said, referring to the virus that causes Middle East Respiratory Syndrome.
Asked about the grant materials, Robert Kessler, communications manager at EcoHealth Alliance, said, “We applied for grants to conduct research. The relevant agencies deemed that to be important research, and thus funded it. So I don’t know that there’s a whole lot to say.”
The grant was initially awarded for a five-year period — from 2014 to 2019. Funding was renewed in 2019 but suspended by the Trump administration in April 2020.
The chants should no longer be “Fire Fauci.”
They should be “Arrest Fauci.”
