Fauci: I’ll “Fully Cooperate” With Any GOP Investigation

The Insider reports:

White House chief medical advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci said Tuesday that he’s ready to face Republicans in Congress next year as they gain control of the US House and have pledged renewed COVID-19 oversight. “I absolutely will cooperate fully and testify before the Congress if asked,” Fauci told reporters during the White House press briefing.

“I have testified before the Congress a few hundred times over the last 40 years or so, so I have no trouble testifying. We can defend and explain and stand by everything that we’ve said. I have nothing to hide.”

The appearance at the White House was likely Fauci’s last. Fauci, who has been director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases since 1984 and is turning 82 next month, will be leaving his post in government in December.
