Ted Cruz Goes After Dr. Fauci Because He Has ‘Done More Damage Than Any Bureaucrat In The History Of The United States’

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) has once again slammed Dr. Anthony Fauci while speaking during an interview this past Monday for the immeasurable damage that he has done to the nation because of the numerous policies that he championed throughout the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Fauci officially retired this past December after working as both the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases from 1984 to 2022 and the chief medical advisor to the president from 2021 to 2022

The comments from Cruz were issued on Fox Business in the wake of a report from this past weekend which revealed that the Department of Energy has stated with “low confidence” that the pandemic originated from a Chinese lab in Wuhan.

“Dr. Fauci’s behavior on this has been abominable,” stated Cruz. “I think he has done more damage than any bureaucrat in the history of the United States. He has championed policies that have hurt millions of Americans, hurt millions of school kids in particular.”

“And he has also done more to damage the credibility of the United States government when it comes to medical and scientific advice because Dr. Fauci allowed his advice to be politicized,” he went on. “We know Dr. Fauci in writing asked Mark Zuckerberg at Facebook to suppress references to the origin of COVID being from a Chinese government lab.”

Cruz stated that he thinks that Fauci did so most likely because “there’s a very real possibility that Fauci himself bears culpability.”

“I believe Dr. Fauci has lied to Congress, which is a felony, when he has stated that the federal government did not fund gain of function research in in the Wuhan Institute of Virology,” stated Cruz. “Since then, the National Institutes for Health in writing has contradicted that. And if the Biden Justice Department were enforcing the law, they ought to be investigating Dr. Fauci for lying to Congress, which is a federal crime. To date, the Biden DOJ has been too political to hold Dr. Fauci accountable.”

TRANSCRIPT:

SEN. TED CRUZ (R-TX): Well, Dr. Fauci’s behavior on this has been abominable. I think he has done more damage than any bureaucrat in the history of the United States. He has championed policies that have hurt millions of Americans, hurt millions of school kids in particular. And he has also done more to damage the credibility of the United States government when it comes to medical and scientific advice because Dr. Fauci allowed his advice to be politicized. We know Dr. Fauci in writing asked Mark Zuckerberg at Facebook to suppress references to the origin of COVID being from a Chinese government lab. And he did so I think in part, because there’s a very real possibility that Fauci himself bears culpability. I believe Dr. Fauci has lied to Congress, which is a felony, when he has stated that the federal government did not fund gain of function research in in the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Since then, the National Institutes for Health in writing has contradicted that. And if the Biden Justice Department were enforcing the law, they ought to be investigating Dr. Fauci for lying to Congress, which is a federal crime. To date, the Biden DOJ has been too political to hold Dr. Fauci accountable.
