Senator Ron Johnson is warning that HHS insiders are obstructing RFK Jr.’s transparency efforts, as newly-released texts from Anthony Fauci raise questions about vaccine safety during the COVID-19 pandemic.

❓ WHAT HAPPENED: Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI), accused longtime Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) officials of obstructing efforts to uncover information about the federal government’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, saying “career bureaucrats” appear to be working against investigations led by HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Johnson and Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) recently obtained a government-issued phone previously used by Dr. Anthony Fauci as part of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee’s investigation into the former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) director and Joe Biden advisor. 📺 DETAIL: The phone contained more than 34,000 text messages and 522 voicemails, with the committee releasing an initial batch of messages Monday involving Fauci, former CDC Director Rochelle Walensky, and former Surgeon General Vivek Murthy. Among the messages, Fauci raised concerns in early 2021 that fever and inflammatory reactions following a second mRNA vaccine dose could theoretically be associated with miscarriage during the first trimester. Johnson described those disclosures as potentially only the “tip of the iceberg.” Johnson also said Kennedy may not yet have complete access to information within HHS, alleging that some longtime agency employees involved in pandemic-era policies are resisting efforts to increase transparency. 💬 KEY QUOTE: “Remember, most of the people serving in these agencies have been there a long time, and they were involved in the cover-up. They were supposed to be surveilling for vaccine injuries, and they weren’t… Bobby Kennedy has people in those agencies sabotaging his efforts at radical transparency.” – Sen. Ron Johnson 🎯 IMPACT: The release of Fauci’s texts raises significant questions about vaccine safety and the transparency of government agencies during the pandemic. Johnson’s warnings on internal sabotage could further erode public trust in public health bureaucrats and their handling of COVID-19 and vaccine-related matters. |
