Senior advisor to Dr. Anthony Fauci, Dr. David Morens, is under scrutiny for allegedly deleting federal records, using personal emails to evade FOIA requests, and backchanneling information. Legal actions, including lawsuits and suspensions, have been taken against individuals involved in the cover-up. Congressional hearings and investigations are ongoing to uncover the extent of the misconduct.
"EcoHealth Alliance–the disgraced research firm…using taxpayer funds to conduct gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab before the COVID-19 pandemic began–received nearly $100 million from the federal government over the past decade and a half." https://t.co/IEQZsgzBVY
“Federal officials suspend funding to EcoHealth Alliance, nonprofit entangled in COVID-19 origin debate.” https://t.co/M0SpagVwCb https://t.co/A6oxBpJb3D
“It appears as though Dr. Morens and maybe others at NIH sought to circumvent, if not violate, the law by using personal email accounts and deleting emails,” Judicial Watch senior attorney Michael Bekesha in @DailyCaller. READ: https://t.co/2KErAeWBjq
It can’t be repeated enough that Fauci’s chief concern when realizing that his organization may have funded research that led to the release of COVID wasn’t learning the truth, it was protecting himself and his reputation And then the media called him a hero for 3+ years
A top NIH adviser deleted records critical to uncovering Covid origins & used back channels to help Fauci fund shady gain-of-function research in Wuhan. Clearly, the NIH was stacked w/ bureaucratic goons eager to mislead Americans for their secret schemes.https://t.co/hknTeUlqku
COVERUP: Even the Democrats are shocked how obviously corrupt Dr. Fauci's 'fixer' was. He claims not to have known that the NIH had an ethics office as he advised his colleagues delete emails and move sensitive communications to Gmail to avoid FOIA. h/t @TexasLindsay_ https://t.co/ZSunJTEQQm

What’s remarkable is that we just got a massive release of new emails showing that Fauci, his top advisor and outside collaborators worked to avoid FOIA requests, deleted information and conversations and repeatedly, purposefully misled the public on the lab leak to protect…
The most important knowledge that we learned is that David Morens, 20-year assistant to Fauci, was purposely evading FOIA, which is the law. More than that, he was also destroying evidence. https://t.co/l72etLO43R
A single email by top NIH/NIAID official got caught in @JamesCTobias FOIA. Resulting subpoenas uncovered a conspiracy to avoid legally mandated oversight by deleting all emails “relating to origin”. The ranking Democrat called this a “stain on the legacy”. It’s not partisan. https://t.co/HmF1NZYkxW https://t.co/zgja2JPqAb
Why would a top Fauci advisor use personal emails to avoid FOIA requests? #diamondandsilk #covidorigincoverup #fauciliedpeopledied #drdavidmorens https://t.co/tGz4ljofio
A main goal of the @NIH during the covid era was the reputational protection of Tony Fauci and Francis Collins against the accurate charges that they funded dangerous research that likely caused the pandemic and dangerous lockdowns and social distancing without evidence.
