Staff Reports
In a startling development, it has been reported that Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former head of the National Institutes of Allergy and Infectious Disease, made an undisclosed visit to the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) headquarters. Allegations suggest that the purpose of this covert mission was to exert influence on the CIA's investigation into the origins of the COVID-19 virus. These claims, brought to light by The National Pulse, imply that Fauci was "escorted into Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Headquarters—without a record of entry—and participated in the analysis to 'influence' the Agency's review."
These concerning accusations have raised the alarm for Rep. Brad Wenstrup, who chairs the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic. He has obtained information that has prompted him to express the need for a fair and impartial scientific examination of COVID-19's origins. Wenstrup has formally requested documents and an interview with Special Agent Brett Rowland, who collaborated closely with Dr. Fauci.
Because of the DOJ’s inaction regarding Fauci’s lies to congress, I’ve now sent a criminal referral to D.C. U.S. Attorney Matthew Graves. I’m demanding an investigation. Read the full letter here: https://t.co/HLEySLgfkv pic.twitter.com/ih2b7pgcqm

From a conservative Republican perspective, these revelations cast doubt on the integrity of the scientific investigative process and the potential for external influences on the determination of COVID-19's origins. The American public rightfully expects transparency and seeks to understand whether public health authorities may have suppressed the lab leak theory for political or national security reasons. It is imperative that a thorough investigation occurs to reveal the truth and hold accountable those responsible for any potential misinformation.
It's important to consider that a recently declassified report from the U.S. intelligence community did acknowledge "biosafety concerns" and "genetic engineering" at the Wuhan lab. However, the report also indicated that most agencies assessed the virus was not genetically engineered. The CIA has admitted its inability to pinpoint the exact origin of the pandemic due to conflicting reports and assumptions.
The emergence of this news about Dr. Fauci's covert visit to the CIA further intensifies the scrutiny surrounding his actions and statements. Republican Senator Rand Paul has escalated his criminal referral of Dr. Fauci, citing alleged falsehoods in his Congressional testimony. The Department of Justice's lack of action on this matter has raised concerns about its commitment to holding public officials accountable. A comprehensive investigation into Dr. Fauci's actions and statements is long overdue, particularly considering the potential implications for public health and the well-being of the American population.
