FBI: Fauci Funded ‘Alarming’ COVID Research in Wuhan

From Newsmax:

A new COVID-19 revelation has come about via a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request released Friday.

In the FOIA, internal FBI communications show the Bureau was tipped off in April 2020 that the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), under the leadership of Dr. Anthony Fauci, had funded coronavirus gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

The “alarming” nature of the FOIA draws on a paragraph in the NIAID grant’s “description,” which, in its original form, appears to be erased from the internet. Nonetheless, the paragraph in the FOIA mentions how a “novel” coronavirus would be engineered “to infect human cells” while leaving no trace of its lab origins — thereby misleading future researchers — in the case of a future outbreak — that the novel virus had sprung out of nature.

Judicial Watch released the five FOIA pages of internal FBI communications on Friday.

“These smoking gun documents showed the FBI quickly understood that Fauci’s agency funded the gain-of-function research that could disguise the resulting coronavirus as ‘natural,'” Tom Fitton, Judicial Watch President, said, according to the New York Post.

“These new documents further demonstrate the need for a comprehensive criminal investigation into Fauci’s gain-of-function scandal.”
