can transmit from bats to humans before

Republican lawmakers demanded Dr. Anthony Fauci be terminated from his role as the nation’s top infectious disease expert after he was accused of flip-flopping on key COVID-related topics like mask-wearing and the origins of the coronavirus.House Rep. Warren Davidson, a Republican from Ohio, on Tuesday proposed the ‘FIRED Act’ - whose acronym stands for ‘Fauci Incompetence Requires Early Dismissal.’'Dr. Fauci is at odds with the [Centers for Disease Control],' Davidson told Fox News.
'He has repeatedly put political science ahead of the science on COVID-19.'Republicans have criticized Fauci and other public health officials for telling the public to refrain from mask-wearing in the early days
I have to wonder if the Republicans would demand Fauci be fired if Trump was still President.

Fauci should be in jail and nothing less. You tell this to everyone who's lives were destroyed by losing someone close to them by the virus or the effect of the lockdown; their business shut down permanently; children denied other children companionship, etc. This clown needs nothing less than jail. He is an unsensitive beast that could not give a damn about anyone but himself.

I am glad Republicans finally got around to it. It's tardy, but the right decision.

Idiots. Well, now they know how viruses can transmit from bats to humans. What good was it to know, unless you were doing it on purpose? The research certainly didn't learn any way to protect against it or stop it. It wouldn't have happened, unless you purposely subjected the virus to "gain of function" research. It is my hope that fauci finds himself before a tribunal for Crimes Against Humanity.

I will never understand why President Trump didn't fire him when he had the chance.

I don’t think President Trump ever had a chance to fire Fauci. From the very beginning the press was worshipful to fauci and you know as well as I the firestorm that would have erupted over trumps head if he’d gotten fed up and booted the little weasel out. This little worm is a Clinton acolyte and the media all know it.

Something is seriously wrong with our government when we are giving money to a Communist country to conduct nefarious lab experiments.

Did they mop their furrowed brows with scented handkerchiefs after making this call? The courage of many of our Republican leaders combined would not fill a teacup. It appears they have heard the rumblings of the great unwashed masses they so despise. People are fed up with the lies, lockdowns and those darn masks. They want answers and they want them now. It will not go over well with Americans if they find out Fauci has been funding the Wuhan Laboratory through his position in our government. Once again, the government fails the American people and that is not right. Experimenting with bio weapons is extremely dangerous and I would bet this is just the tip of the iceberg. There is no telling what evil our tax dollars are funding. Americans deserve to know where the money is going especially on extremely dangerous projects like bio weapons. If we had even adequate oversight, it would help, but apparently even heinous scientific research can be funded without anyone to oversee what is being done. Who was tasked to hold Fauci accountable for his decisions? No one?

The most shocking revelation was that Fauci had provide funding for "growth of function" research on the bat virus that became Covid-19 even though this kind of research was prohibited for good reason. Even more shocking was that the work was farmed out to a research facility in China giving that adversarial government complete access to the research. Paying China to develop a potentially very deadly biological weapon was so criminally stupid as to defy belief!
To the eternal disgrace of the rest of the MSM in this country, only the UK's Daily Mail and FOX News have investigated and reported this story. The rest of the MSM have portrayed Fauci as some kind of hero.

Assisting a potential enemy, using US taxpayers money, with their biological warfare projects is pretty bad, even for a money grubbing liberal Democrat. In the old days some people with political go-power in the USA would have called those activities treasonous.

Hindsight. When confronted with the now known fake pandemic of the common summer cold President Trump didn't know just like the rest of us then went into action. Fauci was there at the time and you go to war with the weapons you have. Now we know Fauci is just a posing fake with a background of questionable deeds that span back to President Reagan's years. Would Trump have fired Fauci now if faced with it? Knowing President Trump as a man of action probably so.

Does this mean I have to take down my front lawn shrine to St. Fauci?
That would be a shame - - because he looks so cute next to the Holy Family and St. Martin of Tours.

Trump was between a rock and a hard place in naming Fauci when this thing started. Fauci was the head guy at NIH that deals with viruses. Image the MSM's reaction if Trump either didn't pick Fauci, or went in another direction. The media would have immediately said Trump isn't a doctor, or Trump thinks he knows more than the experts. The media would have sought out Fauci for his opinion anyway. My problem with Fauci was his obnoxious behavior displayed behind Trump's back during the briefings when Trump was speaking. There was no call for that kind of behavior from anyone. Now that evidence points to Fauci's hand in this from the beginning, and his outright lies during the past year, a resignation isn't enough for me. This little twit needs to stung up by his feet and spend the rest of his life behind bars.

Not fired or resign. But, arrested, tried, and imprisoned for the senseless deaths of many Americans.

FTA: In April 2012, six miners here fell sick after entering the mine to clear bat guano.
Now there's a job that will never be replaced by computers.

President Trump was faced with a major crisis.. he had to look to the cdc for answers and thus WE got fauci and the scarf lady... BUT.. President Trump got the vaccine moved up four years...which must have frustrated china...because they were hoping to get rid of President Trump and delay vaccinations for four years... that gave them plenty of time to control the markets...their plan failed because...I'm vaccinated and my friends are vaccinated... thanks to President Trump...and that... my friends... is why fauci wants two masks worn for three years...he's on china's payroll...

Were President Trump still in the White House, #1, Fauci would have been gone before the new year began. He couldn’t have been fired since he is a civil servant.
There are many things Trump got wrong, although with the virus most of the missteps came from relying on the experts. Fauci is an expert who had a golden reputation. At the time there was no reason to exclude Fauci from the Corona task force.

The liberals aren’t going to turn on Fauci. They have too much invested. They will just find it more difficult to defend him. Meanwhile the Republicans are ‘calling for his resignation’ knowing full well that it is going to happen, like this will appease conservatives and make it look like they’re doing something. Is anyone here fooled by that?

President Trump put Fauci front and center on purpose, so everyone would know exactly who and what he is.

I know I saw him deny that his organization funded that research. Now he has pivoted to defending the funding.

#7, yes. They have decided that we freedom loving Americans are 'more trouble than we are worth'. And think about what that might translate into, in the way of actions. When you don't believe in God, you have not boundaries whatsoever on what you will do. None.
