Despite Biden Pardon, Fauci Still Faces Legal Perils. Here They Are. | RealClearInvestigations

With Republicans running both the Senate and House, investigations of Fauci will likely continue as members resume digging into any NIH culpability in funding research that started the pandemic. Trump s CIA nominee, John Ratcliffe, told House members during a 2023 hearing that classified intelligence points toward a lab accident. Ratcliffe is likely to be confirmed, and a Trump transition team source said he would likely then declassify that information, further undermining Fauci s claims that the pandemic started from a natural spillover.

Ongoing investigations of Fauci, RCI has been told, will only further erode his credibility, even if criminal charges can no longer be filed. This pardon means he can no longer be brought to justice, said an adviser to the Trump transition team. But it guarantees he will be further exposed.

I trusted everything Fauci said during the pandemic, and I did everything he told me, said Bri Dressen, a former preschool teacher in Saratoga Springs, Utah. I masked, wiped down my groceries with alcohol, kept my kids away from other kids so they wouldn t catch the virus, and then I got vaccinated.  Dressen ended up injured by AstraZeneca s vaccine as a volunteer in the company s clinical trial, and founded React19.org, whose 36,000 members advocate for victims of COVID vaccine harm.

It was the steepest learning curve in my entire life. The people in authority like Fauci are the ones I shouldn t have trusted, Dressen said. It s been a huge paradigm shift to see a hero actually turn into a villain.
