The House Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic (House COVID-19 Subcommittee) made this allegation in a Sept. 26 letter penned by subcommittee chair Rep. Brad Wenstrup (R-OH). The letter was addressed to Christi Grimm, inspector general of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
Citing information obtained by the subcommittee, Wenstrup wrote that Fauci – serving as the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) at the time – "was escorted to [the CIA's] headquarters" in Virginia "without a record of entry." Moreover, the former NIAID director who stepped down in December 2022 "participated in the analysis to 'influence' the [CIA's] review."
Given this, the Ohio congressman requested documents "sufficient to show any HHS Office of Inspector General authorized, supported or otherwise affiliated movements of Fauci from Jan. 1, 2020 through Dec. 31, 2022." He also requested communications between CIA and HHS employees regarding Fauci's admission to any CIA facility. Wenstrup gave an Oct. 10 deadline for the request.
Aside from the documents, he also asked Grimm to make HHS Special Agent Brett Rowland "available for a voluntary transcribed interview." The subcommittee will be announcing the date when Rowland, who worked closely with Fauci, must show up.
"The select subcommittee … is authorized to investigate 'the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic, including but not limited to the federal government's funding of gain-of-function research' and 'executive branch policies, deliberations, decisions, activities, and internal and external communications related to the COVID-19 pandemic," the letter stressed.
The former White House chief medical advisor has been accused of embarking on a cover-up attempt for the EcoHealth Alliance, led by British zoologist Peter Daszak. He has also been accused of covering up for the Wuhan Institute of Virology, which has ties with the Chinese Communist Party.
The allegation of Fauci's influence peddling came weeks after a revelation that the CIA paid off analysts to bury the laboratory origins of COVID-19. Wenstrup put forward this allegation in a Sept. 12 letter, this time addressed to CIA Director William Burns. The chairman of the House COVID-19 Subcommittee cited the testimony of a whistleblower – in the person of "a multi-decade, senior-level current [CIA] officer" – to back up this claim.
The whistleblower claimed that the CIA assigned seven officers to a COVID Discovery Team, which was made up of "multi-disciplinary and experienced officers with significant scientific expertise." At the end of its review, six of the seven members "believed the intelligence and science were sufficient to make a low-confidence assessment that COVID-19 originated from a laboratory in Wuhan, China." The seventh and most senior member, who insisted that SARS-CoV-2 jumped from animals to humans, was the lone dissenter.
"To come to the eventual public determination of uncertainty, the other six members were given a significant monetary incentive to change their position." (Related: Whistleblower: CIA BRIBED analysts to change their findings on COVID-19 origins.)
Given these accusations, Wenstrup and Rep. Mike Turner (R-OH) – the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee – requested documents and communications regarding the COVID Discovery Team. The two asked for the pay history of all team members, including "any type of financial or performance-based incentive [or] financial bonus" given to them.
The CIA denied the allegations in a statement given to the New York Post.
"At [the] CIA, we are committed to the highest standards of analytic rigor, integrity and objectivity. We do not pay analysts to reach specific conclusions," said Tammy Kupperman Thorp, the agency's public affairs director.
"We take these allegations extremely seriously and are looking into them. We will keep our congressional oversight committees appropriately informed."
