A top adviser to Dr. Anthony Fauci, former head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, has been ordered to turn over emails on the origins of the COVID-19 virus amid allegations he used personal email addresses to avoid federal disclosure laws.
Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic Chairman Brad Wenstrup (R-Ohio) announced a subpoena to compel Dr. David Morens. a top advisor to Fauci to “hand over documents from his personal email account related to COVID-19.”
“Morens has also agreed to testify in front of the Select Subcommittee at a public hearing later this year,” the House Oversight Committee reveals.
The subpoena and testimony come after, the Committee reports, “(i)n June 2023, the Select Subcommittee released a batch of emails in which Dr. Morens claims to hide COVID-19 information. Dr. Morens wrote, ‘I always try to communicate over gmail because my NIH email is FOIA’d constantly’ and ‘I will delete anything I don’t want to see in the New York Times.’”
In response, “the NIH removed Dr. Morens from his position and placed him on administrative leave,” the Subcommittee reports.
Congressional investigators now want to see all of Morens’ emails, especially those with EcoHealth Alliance President Dr. Peter Daszak, who reportedly was involved in the gain-of-function research at a laboratory in Wuhan, China which led to the release of COVID-19 virus.
“Recent whistleblower allegations revealed new, additional evidence that Dr. Morens intentionally used his personal email to hide conversations about the origins of COVID-19 and subvert federal transparency laws. Last week, Dr. Morens’s self-proclaimed ‘best friend’ — EcoHealth Alliance President Dr. Peter Daszak — released four document tranches that confirmed the whistleblower’s allegations. Notably, Dr. Daszak is at the center of controversy related to his use of U.S. taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology,” the Subcommittee reports.
“In the emails released by EcoHealth Alliance, Dr. Morens recklessly provided Dr. Daszak with access to non-public information and offered insight into internal conversations at NIAID. In one email, Dr. Morens appears to have disclosed Dr. Fauci’s efforts and provided Dr. Daszak with information about internal deliberations related to EcoHealth Alliance’s grant suspension. Dr. Morens wrote in an email to Dr. Daszak, ‘Tony is now fully aware I think and is I am told involved in some sort of damage control.’ In another email, Dr. Daszak agrees to contact Dr. Morens via his personal Gmail account instead of his government email account to communicate about information related to COVID-19 and NIAID grants stating, ‘David – We’ll communicate with you via gmail from now on’ and then concerningly adds ‘we have 15,000 samples in freezers in Wuhan,’” the Subcommittee adds.
“Dr. David Morens purposefully evaded FOIA laws to give his ‘best-friend’ EcoHealth Alliance President Dr. Peter Daszak non-public, internal information that had the potential to undermine the operations of the United States government. This is not only highly concerning, but it is also likely illegal. Dr. Morens must be held accountable for any abuse of power and his blatant disregard for the law. The subpoena for Dr. Morens’s personal email communication will ensure that the truth about this federal records violation is brought to light. Unfortunately, this pattern of abusing federal power appears to stretch beyond Dr. Morens, Dr. Daszak, or NIH. This subpoena is an important effort to ensure that federal health officials never again feel empowered to duck accountability to the American people and willfully undermine our elected government,” said Chairman Wenstrup.

Sen. Ruben Gallego Moves To Challenge Trump Green Card Policy
Arizona Democratic Sen. Ruben Gallego is launching an effort to challenge a new Trump Administration immigration policy that could require many green card applicants to leave the United States and complete the process abroad.
According to a report from The Hill, Gallego is not only seeking to overturn the policy itself but is also pursuing a procedural strategy that could make it easier for Congress to reverse the change.
The dispute revolves around a recent U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) policy affecting how certain immigrants obtain lawful permanent residency.
