| Fauci memos expose instructions to delete emails, steer spy agencies during COVID-19 pandemic |

| [Just The News] On at least five occasions during his final two decades in government, Dr. Anthony Fauci asked recipients of emails to delete the contents after reading them, according to newly released evidence from Senate Homeland Security Committee Chairman Rand Paul that chronicles a culture of secrecy under America's former top doctor that extended to his dealings with U.S. spy agencies. Fauci's contacts with the intelligence community included efforts to steer the CIA and the Director of National Intelligence's office toward scientists who were advocating that COVID-19 emerged naturally even as the FBI developed evidence that the deadly virus was man-made and may have leaked from a Chinese lab where research was funded by Fauci's agencies, the memos show. For instance, a CIA memorandum stated that Fauci urged the agency to contact Robert Garry, Kristian Andersen and Eddie Holmes, "all three of whom have advocated for features of the virus that they judge to be consistent with a natural origin," according to a summary of the memos released this weekend by Paul. Likewise, a July 12, 2021, email from ODNI states that Fauci had emphasized a scientific article and identified "the authors whose views he thought were particularly important." That article was written by Anderson, Holmes and Andrew Rambaut, the scientists who advocated the natural-origins theory of COVID. The documents also show that the CIA struck an inter-agency contract with Fauci's agency, the National Institute for Infectious Disease and Allergy, on bioterrorism research, permitting the transfer of funds between the two agencies that would be unclassified but restricted from public release. The undated contract released by Paul was to "conduct work to support BTC [biological threat characterization] relevant forensic research needs and focus on comparative genomic analysis of organisms considered agents of bioterrorism." Some of that work appeared to focus on viruses that could kill humans. For instance, one memo shows the CIA, on Sept. 4, 2015, asked Fauci's agency "for a paper outlining the rate of mutation, the number of passages from human to human to lock in these mutations (or to generate them), and the molecular genetic means through which this is likely to occur." |
