Despite Biden Pardon, Fauci Still Faces Legal Perils. Here They Are. Despite Biden Pardon, Fauci Still Faces Legal Perils. Here They Are. https://www.realclearinvestigations.com/articles/2025/01/20/despite_biden_pardon_fauci_still_faces_legal_perils_here_they_are_1085875.html , President Biden’s pardon of Dr. Anthony Fauci may protect the former National Institutes of Health official from immediate criminal prosecution, but some critics say he is not completely out of legal jeopardy and that public sentiment might still condemn the man who became known during the COVID-19 pandemic as “Mr. Science.” https://cms.zerohedge.com/s3/files/inline-images/675617_6_.jpeg.jpg?itok=ovfqEnd6 In the days before Biden offered the pardon to Fauci, along with other critics of Donald Trump, some experts who have followed Fauci’s career and handling of the pandemic, as well as members of the Trump transition team, reiterated their assertion that Fauci perjured himself on several occasions during the pandemic – especially regarding his agency’s links to the lab in Wuhan, China, that might have created the virus that causes COVID-19. The https://x.com/HansMahncke/status/1881374058161594846/photo/1 any COVID-related offenses, and is backdated to 2014—the year a U.S. ban on so-called "gain of function" virus research took effect -- research Fauci is accused of outsourcing to China. Despite reporting that https://www.nytimes.com/2025/01/14/opinion/trump-retribution-revenge.html , the appetite among MAGA appointees for holding Fauci accountable hasn’t been particularly vocal. But former Senate investigator Jason Foster, who now runs the whistleblower nonprofit Empower Oversight, says that Biden’s pardon creates new legal jeopardy for Fauci. Sen. Rand Paul has vowed to continue investigating the COVID origins question, and sources tell RealClearInvestigations that Sen. Ron Johnson and House Republican investigators plan to do so as well. When testifying in those inquiries or answering written depositions, Fauci will be unable to dodge questions by invoking his Fifth Amendment protections against self-incrimination. “They can ask him if he lied before, replough old ground,” Foster said. “And if he lies about any prior lie, he can be prosecuted for that or held in contempt.” https://publichealth.uci.edu/faculty/noymer-andrew/ , associate professor of population health and disease prevention at the University of California, Irvine, said such hearings are necessary for scientific and historical reasons. “I’m hopeful that he will now come clean about everything he knows about the origins of the virus,” Noymer said. “For the sake of public trust in science – explaining what killed 20 million people – that a complete account is much more important than speculation about what criminal penalties he may have avoided.” “These pardons will not stop Department of Justice investigations,” said one adviser to the Trump transition team, who spoke on the condition of anonymity. “We expected this and look at it as a predicate to get truth from people who can no longer use the Fifth Amendment. Now we can bring every one of them in front of a grand jury.” https://cms.zerohedge.com/s3/files/inline-images/675637_5_.jpg?itok=ykW_eRPe There is no consensus on Fauci’s handling of the pandemic. Legacy media outlets have promoted Fauci throughout the pandemic as “https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2020/04/20/how-anthony-fauci-became-americas-doctor , citing his own accomplishments. Numerous social media outlets have provided a polar opposite perspective. Several X accounts have uploaded videos that show Fauci’s inconsistencies. For example, Fauci https://x.com/thackerpd/status/1866811410614981115  that show Fauci claiming he kept an “open mind” about how the pandemic started while alleging in others that the evidence points against a lab accident and “strongly” in favor of a natural spillover. As Fauci’s flip-flops generated attention in Republican circles and on social media, he charged that such criticism was “totally preposterous,” adding, “Attacks on me, quite frankly, are attacks on science.” Fauci’s many contradictory statements even caught the attention of a New York Times contributing opinion writer, Megan K. Stack, who chastised Fauci for “https://www.nytimes.com/2023/03/28/opinion/covid-lab-leak-theory-disinformation.html ” about the possibility the pandemic started from an accident at a lab his agency had helped fund – the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Initially, Fauci dismissed as a “conspiracy theory” the possibility of a Wuhan lab accident on a Feb. 9, 2020, podcast hosted by Newt Gingrich. Afterward, Fauci reversed himself, stating in several interviews that he had always kept an open mind. Later reports zeroed in on Fauci’s secret involvement in prominent March 2020 research, called the “https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-020-0820-9 ” paper, that turned public and scientific sentiment against the possibility of a lab accident. “Our analyses clearly show that SARS-CoV-2 is not a laboratory construct or a purposefully manipulated virus,” the paper concluded, adding, “We do not believe that any type of laboratory-based scenario is plausible.” Published in the prestigious Nature Medicine journal, “proximal origin” is the most-cited scientific paper of 2020. Subsequent https://disinformationchronicle.substack.com/p/in-sworn-congressional-testimony .” Distancing himself from his own emails, https://www.nytimes.com/2023/03/28/opinion/covid-lab-leak-theory-disinformation.html  to having received and read several drafts of the paper. But while dissembling to the media is not a crime, lying to Congress is illegal. And the Department of Justice has two referrals from Congress already requesting that Fauci be prosecuted for lying under oath. Lies as Legal Jeopardy https://cms.zerohedge.com/s3/files/inline-images/675647_5_.jpg?itok=1o82aCxE Fauci’s habit of bending the truth, as some see it, was notably on display at a July 2021 Senate hearing when Rand Paul, the Kentucky Republican, bore into the funding Fauci approved for gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. While Fauci attempted to downplay his financial involvement with the Chinese government lab, reports were already percolating. In April 2020, https://www.newsweek.com/dr-fauci-backed-controversial-wuhan-lab-millions-us-dollars-risky-coronavirus-research-1500741  into EcoHealth Alliance, a nonprofit funded by the Fauci-run National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases. With this grant, EcoHealth subcontracted research to the Chinese, the Post noted, to do experiments involving “modifying viral genomes to give them new properties, including the ability to infect lung cells of laboratory mice that had been genetically modified to respond as human respiratory cells would.” Fox News reported Sunday that the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has barred EcoHealth Alliance Inc. and its former president, Dr. Peter Daszak, from receiving federal funds for five years. EcoHealth allegedly failed to report dangerous gain-of-function experiments to the government, which eventually led to the five-year ban.  A month prior to Fauci’s hearing with Paul, Columbia University professor Jeffrey Sachs https://www.project-syndicate.org/onpoint/finding-the-origins-of-covid19-by-jeffrey-d-sachs-2021-06?barrier=accesspaylog  a commission formed by a British medical journal, The Lancet, to investigate how the pandemic began. But when Paul began grilling Fauci about these details and called him out for what he characterized as evasive answers, Fauci pointed the finger back at Paul. “If anybody is lying here, senator, it is you,” https://www.cnbc.com/2021/07/20/if-anybody-is-lying-here-senator-it-is-you-fauci-tells-sen-paul-in-heated-exchange-at-senate-hearing.html  to the Department of Justice requesting they investigate whether Fauci had committed perjury. “He definitely misled the senator,” said former Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Robert Redfield. When Redfield looked at all the evidence, including still-classified information, he said the weight falls in the direction of a lab accident. “Fauci manipulated the public to believe there was only one possible cause for the pandemic, a natural spillover.” Months after Paul’s referral to the Justice Department, liberal news nonprofit ProPublica released new documents confirming the Wuhan lab had conducted such studies. “Grant money for the controversial experiment came from the National Institutes of Health’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, which is headed by Anthony Fauci,” https://theintercept.com/2021/09/09/covid-origins-gain-of-function-research/  on September 9, 2021. “NIH admits funding risky virus research in Wuhan,” https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2021/10/nih-admits-funding-risky-virus-research-in-wuhan?srsltid=AfmBOoof1RmiSNrVUyfVdNGxCXyCrOLekm9iwPqGdWXI3ve7HpdGUjrZ  a week after ProPublica, referencing a letter NIH sent to Congress. Paul sent a second referral to the Department of Justice in July 2023, reiterating his demand that Fauci be investigated. At that time, https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12355213/rand-paul-dr-fauci-covid-criminal-referral.html  showing that, in early 2020, Fauci admitted that scientists were concerned the COVID virus had been engineered and researchers in Wuhan were engaged in gain-of-function research.   “Everything he has been telling us from the very beginning has been a lie,” https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12355213/rand-paul-dr-fauci-covid-criminal-referral.html . “We have documented it’s a lie and it’s a felony to lie to Congress.” Biden’s pardon negates the two Senate referrals for criminal activity. But future hearings could still require Fauci to respond to evidence that he might have perjured himself, and open him up to future prosecution if he stands by statements that can be proven to be false. Hiding Use of Private Email https://cms.zerohedge.com/s3/files/inline-images/675639_5_.jpg?itok=iT9G0s2C Another area of potential inquiry is Fauci’s congressional testimony last summer denying his use of private email to conduct official business,  “Let me state for the record that to the best of my knowledge I have never conducted official business via my personal email,” Fauci wrote https://oversight.house.gov/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Fauci-Testimony.pdf . This testimony seemed to contradict evidence in a 35-page memo compiled by Republican investigative staff. One email showed Fauci’s second-in-command, https://www.newsweek.com/inside-fauci-morens-coronavirus-emails-1904099 , Morens wrote that he would contact Fauci on Gmail. After Fauci’s testimony, the writer of this article reported in https://disinformationchronicle.substack.com/p/why-is-kff-health-news-helping-hide  that Morens had connected KFF Health News reporter Arthur Allen with Fauci on Fauci’s private email back in May 2021. The NIH did not respond to comment about Fauci’s use of private email to conduct government business with reporters.  In a second example, the New York Post https://nypost.com/2024/07/29/us-news/dr-anthony-fauci-used-private-email-to-correspond-with-journalist-denies-it-was-government-business/  that the watchdog group White Coat Waste Project accused Fauci of lying to Congress about his private email use after they released documents showing Fauci was backchanneling with a Washington Post reporter on his private email. “I will send you an e-mail via my gmail account,” Fauci wrote in an email dated Oct. 29, 2021, to Washington Post reporter Yasmeen Abutaleb. Fauci’s lawyer told the Post https://nypost.com/2024/07/29/us-news/dr-anthony-fauci-used-private-email-to-correspond-with-journalist-denies-it-was-government-business/  a personal matter with the Washington Post reporter, although he did not explain what this personal matter was.  Justin Goodman, senior vice president at White Coat Waste Project, said the evidence is clear that Fauci contacted the Washington Post about issues regarding his NIH work and then denied it to Congress. “He should be prosecuted, not pardoned.” Follow the Money https://cms.zerohedge.com/s3/files/inline-images/675640_5_.jpg?itok=1KNM-1cu Congressional hearings might also delve into Fauci’s involvement in research misconduct with the “proximal origin” paper and a grant he approved for the paper’s lead author, Scripps Research Institute’s Kristian Andersen. “There needs to be a criminal investigation of this grant and paper,” said a former law enforcement official who has worked with congressional staff investigating Fauci and his grants. “Nobody inside the executive branch has taken ownership of this.” Shortly after the COVID virus outbreak, Fauci began discussing with several virologists, including Andersen, how the pandemic started. In a Feb. 1, 2020 email, Andersen wrote to Fauci that he had analyzed the COVID virus genetic sequence and “some of the features (potentially) look engineered.” https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/21049568/farrar-fauci-comms.pdf#page=121  that, while opinions could change, he and other virologists felt the virus was not natural or consistent with “expectations with evolutionary theory.” Later that same day, Fauci https://disinformationchronicle.substack.com/p/the-wuhan-cover-up-scientists-lied  that his funding for research in China may have led to the COVID virus. Despite their initial suspicions, Andersen and other virologists reversed course six weeks later and published the “proximal origin” paper on March 16, 2020, that absolved Fauci of funding research that led to the pandemic. Fauci then promoted the Andersen “proximal origin” paper to reporters https://web.archive.org/web/20200419014134/https:/www.whitehouse.gov/briefings-statements/remarks-president-trump-vice-president-pence-members-coronavirus-task-force-press-briefing-april-17-2020/  without disclosing that he had helped marshal the study into publication. A month later, Fauci signed off on an $8.9 million grant to Kristian Andersen. Both Andersen and Fauci have denied the grant was quid pro quo for Andersen publishing the “proximal origin” paper that absolved Fauci, but the https://biosafetynow.substack.com/p/covid-origins-proximal-origins-retraction-daf  for the paper to be retracted.  “It is imperative that this clearly fraudulent and clearly damaging paper be removed from the scientific literature,” https://www.change.org/p/retract-the-proximal-origin-of-sars-cov-2  signed by over 5,000 scientists. Richard Ebright, a professor of Chemistry and Chemical Biology at Rutgers University and co-founder of Biosafety Now, said that Fauci should have been prosecuted for “criminal conspiracy” for his secret involvement in the “proximal origin” paper. Ebright added that the grant Fauci gave to Andersen after he published the paper likely also involved criminal behavior. With Republicans running both the Senate and House, investigations of Fauci will likely continue as members resume digging into any NIH culpability in funding research that started the pandemic. Trump’s https://www.nytimes.com/2025/01/15/us/politics/john-ratcliffe-cia-trump.html  that classified intelligence points toward a lab accident. Ratcliffe is likely to be confirmed, and a Trump transition team source said he would likely then declassify that information, further undermining Fauci’s claims that the pandemic started from a natural spillover. Ongoing investigations of Fauci, RCI has been told, will only further erode his credibility, even if criminal charges can no longer be filed. “This pardon means he can no longer be brought to justice,” said an adviser to the Trump transition team. “But it guarantees he will be further exposed.” “I trusted everything Fauci said during the pandemic, and I did everything he told me,” said Bri Dressen, a former preschool teacher in Saratoga Springs, Utah. “I masked, wiped down my groceries with alcohol, kept my kids away from other kids so they wouldn’t catch the virus, and then I got vaccinated.” Dressen ended up https://www.science.org/content/article/rare-cases-coronavirus-vaccines-may-cause-long-covid-symptoms  as a volunteer in the company’s clinical trial, and founded React19.org, whose 36,000 members advocate for victims of COVID vaccine harm. “It was the steepest learning curve in my entire life. The people in authority like Fauci are the ones I shouldn’t have trusted,” Dressen said. “It’s been a huge paradigm shift to see a hero actually turn into a villain.” https://cms.zerohedge.com/users/tyler-durden Mon, 01/20/2025 - 22:35 https://www.zerohedge.com/political/despite-biden-pardon-fauci-still-faces-legal-perils-here-they-are
