Ted Cruz Puts ‘Unelected Technocrat’ Fauci on Notice ‘for Making False Statements to Congress’

Republican Senator Ted Cruz has dropped the hammer on Dr. Anthony Fauci after the two feuded on social media and in television interviews.

“Anybody who’s looking at this carefully realizes that there’s a distinct anti-science flavor to this, so if they get up and criticize science, nobody’s going to know what they’re talking about,” Fauci said.

“But if they get up and really aim their bullets at Tony Fauci, well people can recognize that there’s a person there, so it’s easy to criticize, but they’re really criticizing science because I represent science.”

“What happened on January 6th, senator?” he said later when asked about Sen. Cruz saying Fauci may face prosecution for lying to Congress.

Ted Cruz fired back: “Fauci is an unelected technocrat who has distorted science and facts in order to exercise authoritarian control over millions of Americans.

“He lives in a liberal world where his smug “I REPRESENT science” attitude is praised.

“Here are the facts:

“On May 11, Fauci testified before a Senate Committee that “the NIH has not ever and does not now fund gain-of-function research in the Wuhan Institute of Virology.”

“On October 20, NIH wrote they funded an experiment at the Wuhan lab testing if “spike proteins from naturally occurring bat coronaviruses circulating in China were capable of binding to the human ACE2 receptor in a mouse model.”

That is gain of function research.

“Fauci’s statement and the NIH’s October 20 letter cannot both be true. The statements are directly contradictory.

“18 USC 1001 makes it felony, punishable by up to 5 years in prison, to lie to Congress.

“No amount of ad hominem insults parroting Democrat talking points will get Fauci out of this contradiction.

“Fauci either needs to address the substance—in detail, with specific factual corroboration—or DOJ should consider prosecuting him for making false statements to Congress.”
