Fauci Solicited Scientists to Nominate Him for Awards

The corruption here is off the charts. Rand Paul has just released a trove of emails showing Fauci soliciting various so-called scientists to nominate him for awards, many of which Fauci then went on to win, receiving substantial prize money in the process.

… forensically dissected, preferably by the DOJ. But even looking at just one example, Barton Haynes of Duke, the questions are staggering. Fauci personally petitioned Haynes to nominate him for an award, which Fauci ultimately won, including $1 million in prize money. That alone raises serious ethical concerns.

But what really knocked me off my chair is that Haynes has received something like $1.2 billion (with a "B") in funding from Fauci’s NIAID. The entire system is totally compromised, with a small circle of elites effectively doing favors for one another, all at taxpayer expense.

This is a mind blowing file dump. Appears to be hundreds of pages of correspondence within NIH and HHS about getting Fauci many paid awards. The focus here is amazing. What a scam! https://t.co/Gf23cVcVle pic.twitter.com/72GD7oi1KD

Just look at the awards for which Fauci lobbied for himself. This is what @SenRandPaul has unearthed pic.twitter.com/crqSdOz4Im
