Former Director of National Intelligence says Fauci testimony under oath was 'inconsistent'

Former Director of National Intelligence agrees with the former CDC Director that Fauci was inconsistent under oath. Republicans are now pouncing on Fauci and accusing him of lying. The Former Director of National Intelligence didn't say the word LIAR, but probably wanted to. National Review had the details and reported the following in a news article:

Former director of national intelligence John Ratcliffe told Congress on Tuesday that Anthony Fauci’s testimony under oath on gain-of-function research did not comport with the available intelligence at the time.

Appearing before the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic, Ratcliffe was asked by Representative Nicole Malliotakis (R., N.Y.) about Fauci’s sworn testimony before the Senate in November of 2021. In that hearing, Fauci told Senator Rand Paul (R., Ky.) that the NIH did not fund gain-of-function research. Malliotakis said this was despite the fact Fauci had been told in an email in January of 2021 that NIH had a monetary relationship with the Wuhan Institute through the EcoHealth Alliance. Malliotakis then asked Ratcliffe if he thought Fauci had lied under oath.

“Some of Dr. Fauci’s testimony is inconsistent with some of the intelligence that we have that remains classified as well as inconsistent with some information that is publicly available,” replied Ratcliffe.
