Note to Readers: On the CIA, Anthony Fauci, and Covid-19
Directing readers to a joint Racket-Public investigation, with notes on the story
Yesterday, the House Oversight Committee led by Ohio Republican Brad Wenstrup issued a press release announcing a whistleblower’s claims that Dr. Anthony Fauci entered CIA headquarters “without a record of entry” to influence agency analysis of the Covid-19 outbreak in the direction of zoonotic origin.
Today, Public is publishing many more details, including news that Fauci also made similar visits to the Department of State and the White House. “Fauci Diverted US Government Away From Lab Leak Theory Of Covid’s Origin, Sources Say” is part of a joint Racket-Public project that’s been in the works for months. The story is complex and still evolving, but in the meantime, thanks to Michael Shellenberger, Alex Gutentag, and Leighton Woodhouse for their excellent work on this article. As with previous collaborations, Racket will have its own contribution to this topic in short order. Please stay tuned.
Thank you for your courageous work, Matt.
On behalf of those of us who were branded "killers" by Joe et al, it will be a joy to read how Fauci marked the deck of cards he and others played on the world. What I've never understood is how "health and the CIA" ever belonged together in the same room or the same sentence.
