The House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus grilled Anthony Fauci for 14 hours over two days this week as part of a closed-door deep dive into the origins of COVID-19, the rollout of novel vaccines, and controversial pandemic protocols.

The former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases claimed over 100 times just in the first day of questioning that he could “not recall” possibly damning information. Nevertheless, what Fauci ultimately willed himself to remember or admit was revelatory.

“Dr. Fauci’s transcribed interview revealed systemic failures in our public health system and shed light on serious procedural concerns with our public health authority,” wrote Committee Chairman Brad Wenstrup (R-Ohio). “It is clear that dissenting opinions were often not considered or suppressed completely. Should a future pandemic arise, America’s response must be guided by scientific facts and conclusive data.”
