Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) suggested on Thursday that Dr. Anthony Fauci should face perjury charges for “lying under oath” to Congress about the origins of COVID-19.
During the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in National Harbor, Maryland, Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) went off on Fauci.
“There has been no person who has done more to destroy trust in the scientific and medical community than Dr. Anthony Fauci, who told millions of Americans lies willingly, knowingly, glibly and supremely arrogantly,” Cruz told the crowd at CPAC.
“In any sane system, he would be prosecuted for lying under oath, and he would go to jail for lying under oath to Congress,” Cruz said.
Fauci has been accused by Republicans of lying about funding the National Institutes of Health provided the Wuhan laboratory for “gain-of-function” research.
Cruz also vowed the the Republican-led House would investigate Fauci to figure out how he allegedly “misled the American people and the corruption that drove that.”
“We have a majority in the House, and I am confident that we’re going to use that majority and use it to hold Dr. Fauci and the others who lied accountable,” Cruz said.
On Tuesday FBI Director Christopher Wray confirmed the bureau’s reported stance that the COVID-19 virus came from a Chinese lab leak, backing-up the DOE’s reportedly “low confidence” findings.
