Fauci still on the hook!
Attorneys General Demand Greater Accountability in COVID-19 Response Investigation, Targeting Key Figures Like Dr. Anthony Fauci
February 8, 2025 — A group of state Attorneys General, led by South Carolina’s Attorney General Alan Wilson, has issued a formal letter to congressional leadership, commending their efforts to investigate the U.S. government’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The letter, addressed to Speaker of the House Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune, highlights the need for continued transparency and accountability in uncovering potential misconduct during the pandemic response.
The letter explicitly calls for further scrutiny of high-profile officials, including Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, who played a central role in shaping the nation’s pandemic response. The Attorneys General urge Congress to ensure that no individuals are shielded from accountability through executive actions such as preemptive pardons.
“Although President Biden might attempt to shield potential bad actors—like Dr. Anthony Fauci—from accountability via preemptive pardons, we are confident that state laws may provide a means to hold all actors accountable where warranted,” the letter states.
The Attorneys General also reference findings from the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic, commending Chairman Brad Wenstrup and his colleagues for their dedication to uncovering the truth behind government actions during the crisis. The letter suggests that further investigations could reveal violations of state laws, urging congressional leaders to collaborate with state officials to pursue justice where applicable.
The letter cites the December 2024 report, “After Action Review of COVID-19 Pandemic: The Lessons Learned and the Path Forward,” which outlines significant concerns regarding pandemic management. The Attorneys General believe that additional evidence may surface, potentially implicating individuals who played key roles in policy decisions during the pandemic.
While the letter stops short of accusing Dr. Fauci or any specific individuals of wrongdoing, its strong language signals an escalating effort by state and federal officials to hold government leaders accountable for decisions made during the COVID-19 crisis.
As this investigation unfolds, it remains to be seen what legal actions, if any, will be taken against those identified in future findings. The call for transparency and accountability underscores the lasting impact of the pandemic on public trust in government institutions.
