The Jab Troll is feeling the heat!

White House chief medical advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci and Sen. Rand Paul traded barbs in a heated exchange at a Senate hearing Tuesday over whether the National Institutes of Health funded controversial research Paul claims could have contributed to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Paul grilled Fauci about an NIH funded study that he says qualifies as gain-of-function research, the process of altering a pathogen to make it more transmissible in order to better predict emerging diseases. Fauci previously denied in previous Senate testimony that the NIH has directly funded the research at a lab in Wuhan, China that has come under intense scrutiny as a possible source of the virus.

Paul asked Fauci if he would like to retract that statement from the May 11 testimony, “Fauci, as you are aware it is a crime to lie to Congress.”

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

AFAIK, both NIAID funding and the far greater Pentagon funding went to EcoHealth Alliance and through EHA to WVI and other labs. IOW, Fauci's claim was true, but a weasel-worded deception. Laundering NIAID and Pentagon $$ through EHA does not change the fact that US taxpayer $$ went to WVI.
I am not and never have been a leftist.

If The Vaccine is deadly as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, millions now living would have died.

'The little troll is one huge POS.'

Liked the way Fauci got in the dramatic finger point at the end.   Seemed planned.
