Fauci's gain-of-function conspiracy and why I'll continue to hold him, his allies accountable

In January, I asked Dr. Anthony Fauci a pretty basic question: "Do you really think it’s appropriate to use your $420,000 salary to attack scientists that you disagree with?"

Given Dr. Fauci’s theatrical outburst and deflection in response to my question, I think I hit a nerve.

Answering that question truthfully, which he is legally compelled to do when speaking before Congress, would have meant illuminating the deceitful game he and National Institutes of Health Director Francis Collins have been playing about COVID’s origins and their support of the type of dangerous research that could have led to the pandemic.

How ironic that the frantic efforts by Fauci and Collins to label esteemed scientists as "fringe" and "conspiracy theorists" for daring to suggest that COVID came from a lab was actually a sinister conspiracy of their own.
