Clay: New Report On Fauci Should Result In Immediate Termination

News website Judicial Watch reported it has obtained records showing that the allergy and infectious diseases department under Dr. Anthony Fauci gave a Wuhan Lab $826,277 for bat-related coronavirus research, and OutKick's Clay Travis says Fauci should be canned immediately.

The report from Judicial Watch revealed 280 pages of documents from the Department of Health and Human Services that showed "from 2014 to 2019, $826,277 was given to the Wuhan Institute of Virology for bat coronavirus research by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), which is headed by Dr. Anthony Fauci."

This truly is enough to take down Fauci, and Clay tweeted that's precisely what should happen.

"Pretty big incentive here for Dr. Fauci to claim there’s no way COVID escaped from a Chinese lab," Clay wrote. "Fauci has to be fired immediately. And we need a 9/11 style bipartisan investigation into how COVID originated and what role our tax dollars paid in that emergence."

It will be interesting to see how the mainstream media reacts to these documents. Given its recent history of Fauci coverage, the story will likely be treated as much ado about nothing.

“This is exactly what a free and independent press should exist for — to investigate major stories like these and inform the public of the truth,” Clay wrote earlier this week. “Instead our press mostly exists now as PR agents for the powerful.”
