@COVIDSelect announces a subpoena to compel Dr. David Morens — a top advisor to Dr. Fauci — to hand-over COVID-19 documents in his personal email.
This follows recently CONFIRMED whistleblower allegations that Dr. Morens used his Gmail to hide COVID-19 information.
Let's break it down🧵👇
Last week, Dr. Morens’s self-proclaimed “best friend” — @EcoHealthNYC President Dr. Peter Daszak — released four (partial) email threads.
These emails show Morens recklessly providing Daszak with access to internal @NIH COVID & grant process information.
🚨Dr. Morens repeatedly put federal government operations at risk by sharing non-public information about @NIH grant processes with Dr. Daszak.
🚨Dr. Morens divulged internal @NIH conversations to Dr. Daszak about Dr. Fauci protecting EcoHealth.
▪️ "Tony is now fully aware and is...involved in some sort of damage control."
▪️ "Whatever is going on, I very much doubt that Tony...would willfully throw you under the bus."
🚨Egregiously, Dr. Morens used his @NIH email signature to sign off on "personal" emails from his Gmail account when communicating with Dr. Daszak about COVID-19.
🚨Dr. Daszak enthusiastically agreed to communicate with Dr. Morens via unofficial channels. Then, Dr. Daszak shared highly concerning COVID-19 information.
▪️"David – We’ll communicate with you via gmail from now on.”
▪️“...we have 15,000 samples in freezers in Wuhan...”
...and these examples are just the tip of the iceberg.
Dr. Morens purposefully evaded federal transparency laws to give his "best friend," @EcoHealthNYC President Dr. Peter Daszak, non-public, internal information that had the potential to undermine U.S. government operations.
🚨@COVIDSelect is aware of additional correspondence related to COVID-19 in Dr. Morens’s personal email account that has not yet been released.
Today's subpoena requires Dr. Morens to produce this information or face further Congressional action.

Yesterday, @COVIDSelect led a closed-door, transcribed interview of former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo. His testimony centered on New York's issuance of deadly guidance that forced nursing homes to admit contagious COVID-19 patients.
Here's the readout🧵👇
✔️Mr. Cuomo was shockingly callous when discussing New York's nursing home mortality rate.
He testified, "6500 vs. 9000 [deaths] — What is the difference?"
✔️Mr. Cuomo claimed he was unaware of the existence of the disastrous March 25, 2020 "must-admit" nursing home order until nearly a month after it was issued.
Either Mr. Cuomo is rewriting history, or he was unaware as to what was happening under his leadership.
Today, @COVIDSelect released the transcript from Dr. Anthony Fauci's two-day, 14-hour transcribed interview. On Monday, Dr. Fauci will testify publicly for the first time since retirement.
Key takeaways from his closed-door testimony🧵👇
✔️SOCIAL DISTANCING: The “6 feet apart” social distancing recommendation forced on Americans by federal health officials was arbitrary and not based on science.
Dr. Fauci testified that this guidance “sort of just appeared.”
✔️MASKING: Dr. Fauci testified that he did not recall any supporting evidence for masking children.
Mask-wearing has been associated with severe learning loss and speech development issues in America’s children.
Today, @COVIDSelect requested access to Dr. Fauci's personal email account and cellphone records. New evidence suggests that Dr. Fauci used a "secret back channel" to communicate about official COVID-19 information.
New evidence🧵👇
1. Dr. Fauci’s Senior Advisor — Dr. David Morens — wrote to disgraced EcoHealth Alliance President Dr. Peter Daszak...
“I can either send stuff to Tony on his private gmail, or hand it to him at work…He is too smart to let colleagues send him stuff that could cause trouble.”
2. Then, Dr. Morens references the "secret back channel" he would use to communicate with Dr. Fauci outside the public eye...
"I suggested Arthur try to interview Tony directly and connected him to our 'secret' back channel."
Today, @COVIDSelect released a staff-level memo exposing allegations of wrongdoing and illegal activity by Dr. Fauci's Senior Advisor, Dr. David Morens.
New emails included in the memo incriminate Dr. Morens in:
✖️Undermining the operations of the U.S. government
✖️Unlawfully deleting federal COVID-19 records
✖️Using a personal email to avoid the Freedom of Information Act
✖️Repeatedly acting unbecoming of a federal employee.
✖️Likely lying to Congress on multiple occasions
Key takeaways🧵👇
🚨Dr. Fauci may have used his personal email to conduct official business, according to new evidence.
"I can either send stuff to Tony on his private gmail, or hand it to him..."
"I suggested Arthur try to interview Tony directly and connected him to our 'secret' back channel."
🚨Dr. Fauci was potentially aware of, and may have engaged in, undermining U.S. government operations by assisting Dr. Morens’s efforts to backchannel internal @NIH info to EcoHealth Alliance President Dr. Peter Daszak.
"Peter, I will be meeting with Tony about this later on."
Today, @COVIDSelect released the transcript from former National Institutes of Health Director Dr. Francis Collins's transcribed interview. Dr. Collins helped lead America's COVID-19 pandemic response.
Key Takeaways🧵👇
✔️Dr. Collins testified that the “6 feet apart” social distancing recommendation promoted by federal health officials was likely not based on any science or data.
✔️Dr. Collins stated that the COVID-19 lab-leak hypothesis is not a conspiracy theory.
Today, @COVIDSelect released a staff-level report recommending EcoHealth Alliance President Dr. Peter Daszak be formally debarred and criminally investigated as a result of his actions prior to and during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The report also exposes serious, systemic weaknesses at the National Institutes of Health that enabled EcoHealth to fund dangerous gain-of-function research in Wuhan, China.
KEY FINDINGS🧵👇
🚨EcoHealth used U.S. taxpayer dollars to facilitate gain-of-function research on coronaviruses at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China.
Overwhelming primary source documents and credible firsthand testimony confirm this finding.
🚨EcoHealth violated the terms and conditions of its NIH grant by failing to report a potentially dangerous gain-of-function experiment conducted at the WIV.
Evidence shows that Dr. Daszak was aware of this potentially dangerous research, yet he failed to inform the NIH.
