If anyone had any doubt left about Fauci's culpability, here you go.
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.
"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
His exchanges with Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel reflect the high stakes.
Emanuel, an oncologist, bioethicist, and vice provost of the University of Pennsylvania, sent Fauci an email on Feb. 25, 2020, asking for an updated assessment of the virus and noting that he was having a “hard time seeing this as serious as everyone else.”
“Am I blind? Yes very transmissible but low mortality like flu in many ways – the elderly, those with comorbidities, and total impact is likely to be less than flu,” Emanuel wrote.
Later, in April, Emanuel sent Fauci an email saying he was “perplexed” by his “seeming strong endorsement” of the antiviral drug remdesivir to treat COVID-19.
“Was it just a bit forced?” Emanuel asked. “My reading was the data was weak and in normal times for normal disease it is not enough to approve. And very unlikely to really impact disease pattern–regardless of supply issues.”-- excerpt, rest at link above --

The doctor who thanked Dr. Fauci for dismissing the Wuhan lab leak theory is the same guy who gave $600k to the lab, “investigated” it for the WHO and then acted as a Facebook fact checker censoring info on the Wuhan lab leak theory.

Dr. Anthony Fauci advised Obama-era Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Burwell against wearing a mask – even slamming the practice as “not really effective” – in private emails obtained via a Freedom of Information Act request.
Burwell, also the former Director of President Barack Obama’s Office of Management and Budget, emailed the National Institue of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) Director on February 4th, 2020 inquiring about the necessity of wearing a mask for a forthcoming trip and advice on the direction of a donation to China from investor Ray Dalio.
BURWELL EMAIL.
The following day, Fauci’s response included a declaration that “I do not recommend that you wear a mask,” adding that the “typical mask you buy in the drug store is not really effective in keeping out virus.”
In full, Fauci’s response read:
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.
"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
Kristian Andersen – the head of the Andersen Lab at Scripps Research Institute in California – told Dr. Fauci in late January 2020 that “unusual features” of the COVID-19 virus led him to believe it was “potentially engineered.”
The bombshell release from Dr. Fauci’s e-mails goes to disprove the political and media establishment’s claims that lab-leak or bio-weapon concerns were “conspiracy theories.”
In fact, Andersen is a government-funded scientists backed by Fauci’s own colleagues at the National Institutes for Health (NIH).
He wrote, on Friday, January 31, 2020 at 10:32 PM:
“On a phylogenetic tree the virus looks totally normal and the close clustering with bats suggest that bats serve as the reservoir. The unusual features of the virus make up a really small part of the genome (<0.1%) so one has to look really closely at all the sequences to see that some of the features (potentially) look engineered.”

Former State Dept investigator on leaked Fauci emails: 'I don't trust these scientists' about Wuhan lab Former State Dept investigator on leaked Fauci emails: 'I don't trust these scientists' about Wuhan lab David Asher says some scientists in China's 'pocket' By Nikolas Lanum | Fox News https://www.foxnews.com/media/leaked-fau...-lab-scientists
David Asher on Wuhan lab controversey: Some scientific experts are in China's 'pockets'
Former State Dept. investigator David Asher discusses Dr. Fauci’s leaked emails and the media's dismissal of the Wuhan lab leak theory on ‘America’s Newsroom.'
Former State Department investigator David Asher weighed in Wednesday on leaked emails of Dr. Anthony Fauci, including correspondence with a key figure linked to the Wuhan Institute of Virology who thanked Fauci for using his voice to "dispel the myths" that the COVID-19 pandemic may have been a product of a lab leak.
"I just wanted to say a personal thank you on behalf of our staff and collaborators, for publicly standing up and stating that the scientific evidence supports a natural for COVID-19 from a bat-to-human spillover, not a lab from the Wuhan Insitute of Virology," said Ecohealth Alliance President Peter Daszak in April of 2020.
"From my perspective, your comments are brave, and coming from your trusted voice, will help dispel the myths being spun around the virus’s origins..."
During an "America’s Newsroom" interview with Bill Hemmer, Asher was asked why the Wuhan lab leak theory was dismissed early in the pandemic by scientific experts. -- excerpt, rest at link above --
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.
"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
In a trove of newly leaked emails, one seems to show that Dr. Fauci was in a panic that the NIH, where he was deeply involved, might have ties to the coronavirus leak in China revealed.
Here’s the first email from Fauci to Hugh Auchincloss at NIH on February 1st, 2020:
There’s definitely a sense of urgency and alarm in Fauci’s email.
Below is the reply from Auchincloss:
The response from Auchincloss is key, where he says “The paper you sent me says the experiments were performed before the gain of function pause but have since been reviewed and approved by NIH. Not sure what this means since Emily is sure that no Coronavirus work has gone through the P3 framework. She will try to determine if we have any distant ties to this work abroad.”
Other emails have shown that Fauci was trying to downplay the Wuhan lab leak at the same time.
Phil Kerpen pointed out how the “fact checkers” were quick to cover for the NIH with this article from Nature Medicine:-- excerpt, rest at link above --

Fauci's upcoming book scrubbed on Amazon, Barnes & Noble amid backlash https://justthenews.com/politics-policy/...e-amid-backlash Book will allegedly offer "universal advice to live by." By Daniel Payne Updated: June 2, 2021 - 1:00pm
White House coronavirus adviser and long-time U.S. infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci's upcoming book has been scrubbed from and altered on online listings, amid criticism that he is profiting from the deadly COVID-19 pandemic.
The book, "Expect the Unexpected," was earlier pegged for a November release, according to its Amazon listing. As of Wednesday morning, the book's listing had been entirely scrubbed from Amazon. However, a cached version of the listing, still displayed the book's promotional description and preorder status.
A cached website also shows the book's listing on Barnes & Noble's website, though by Wednesday morning that listing was no longer live anymore.
The book appeared to still be available for preorder on some lesser known vendors such as Booktopia.
The scrubbing of the book comes after backlash from critics who accused Fauci of profiting off of the deadly pandemic the U.S. response to which he has overseen. -- excerpt, rest at link above --

The White House is actively looking to dump Dr. Anthony Fauci amid recent flip-flopping and released emails that show further contradictions on the pandemic response.
Jack Posobiec shared on Instagram the Biden administration is “discussing an exit strategy” for the highest-paid federal employee, and who the Democrats have praised as a “truth-teller.”

Breitbart’s Political Editor Matt Boyle was also interviewed on America First with Sebastian Gorka on May 27 in which Boyle said he would not be surprised if the Democrats would sacrifice Fauci to save their credibility on the issue of the origins of coronavirus.

Dr. Anthony Fauci quietly worked behind the scenes to help cast doubt on the Wuhan lab leak possibility in favor of the natural origins hypothesis during the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, newly released emails show.
Fauci, the head of the National Institutes of Health’s National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, appeared to provide guidance to scientists who pushed back against the lab leak hypothesis, and he shared articles with reporters and other health officials that critiqued the possibility that COVID-19 may have escaped from a Chinese government lab. The communications by President Joe Biden's chief medical adviser, who has led NIAID since 1984, were part of more than 3,200 pages of emails obtained by BuzzFeed through the Freedom of Information Act.
Bill Gertz, a national security reporter for the Washington Times, messaged then-Vice President Mike Pence’s communications director, Katie Miller, on April 19, 2020, saying, “Dr. Fauci on Friday said he would share a scientific paper with the press on the origin of the coronavirus. Can you please help me get a copy of that paper?” Fauci himself responded to Gertz the next day, sharing three sources that argued in favor of a natural origin for COVID-19.
The first article shared by Fauci, which he appeared to have given some sort of input on, was a piece published in Nature on March 17, 2020, by Kristian Andersen, a microbiologist at Scripps Research, Andrew Rambaut, a professor of molecular evolution at the University of Edinburgh, W. Ian Lipkin, a professor of epidemiology at Columbia University, Edward Holmes, a virologist at the University of Sydney, and Robert Garry, a virologist at Tulane University. The piece argued in favor of COVID-19’s origin being a “zoonotic event” and would be widely cited to dismiss the lab leak hypothesis in the early months of the pandemic. The article contended that “our analyses clearly show that SARS-CoV-2 is not a laboratory construct or a purposefully manipulated virus” and that “it is improbable that SARS-CoV-2 emerged through laboratory manipulation of a related SARS-CoV-like coronavirus.” -- excerpt, rest at link above --

Facebook fact-checker for COVID-19 content cited major Wuhan lab funder https://justthenews.com/politics-policy/...ker-cited-major Scientist has been at center of controversy and speculation for the past year. By Daniel Payne Updated: June 2, 2021 - 10:19am
A Facebook fact-checker, as part of the social media platform's efforts to weed out misinformation about the origins of the coronavirus, cited as an expert a major funder of the Wuhan Institute of Virology, the lab over which speculation has swirled for the past year that the virus potentially originated.
Science Feedback, one of Facebook's chief fact-checking platforms, in a February 2020 "fact check" cited Peter Daszak as an expert source in its ruling that there was "no evidence" to support the theory that the COVID-19 virus leaked from the lab.
Daszak has become well known as a major bankroller of coronavirus experiments at the Wuhan lab in the years leading up to the pandemic. At least one major virologist has claimed that Daszak's nonprofit, EcoHealth Alliance, helped fund lab experiments that were then used in risky "gain-of-function" virology research.
Facebook over the past year aggressively censored various journalistic inquiries into COVID-19, including most prominently allegations that the SARS-Cov-2 virus may have arisen in the Chinese lab.
Last month, amid heightened scrutiny and increasing scientific inquiry into the theory, the social media company said it would no longer censor such articles.-- excerpt, rest at link above --

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
