Former National Institute for Allergies and Infectious Disease (NAIAD) Director Dr. Anthony Fauci and a dozen other directors of the National Institutes for Health (NIH) appear not to have been legally appointed to their offices, according to a year-long investigation by House Energy and Commerce Committee Republicans. ...

Among the $26 billion in grants now in question is the latest to Eco-Health Alliance, the New York-based non-profit through which the NIH sent at least $1.7 million to the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China. ...

In a July 7, 2023, letter to Mr. Becerra, Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-Wash.), the energy and commerce chairman, said his “failure to follow the law and ensure accountability of billions of dollars in taxpayer funding at [NIH] … could have grave implications for the validity of actions taken by 14 NIH Institute and Center (IC) Directors during their unlawful tenure, including former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease (NIAID) Director Dr. Anthony Fauci.”

Also signing the letter to Mr. Becerra with Ms. McMorris Rodgers were Rep. Brett Guthrie (R-Ky.), who is chairman of the energy and commerce panel’s health subcommittee, Rep. Morgan Griffith (R-Va.), who heads the panel’s oversight and investigations subcommittee.

The heart of the problem, according to the signers, is that Mr. Becerra failed to appoint the 14 to new five-year terms by Dec. 13, 2021, as required by the 21st Century Cures Act, which was approved by Congress and signed into law by former President Barack Obama. The Cures Act also requires the appointments to be made by the HHS chief, not the head of the NIH. ...

The House Republicans also accused HHS and NIH officials of spending “15 months obstructing the committee to cover up your failure only makes matters worse. HHS and the NIH should have known within days of receiving the committee’s March 14, 2022, letter that the reappointments as legally required had not occurred.”

If the signers are correct that all of the decisions made by the IC officials after Dec. 14, 2021, were illegal, the impact on the NIH will be all but incalculable because, in addition to putting nearly $26 billion in research grants in limbo for what could be years of costly litigation, contracts signed, personnel actions taken, including hiring and termination, and policy decisions will be thrown into turmoil.

Good.

I'll bet by penis that nothing will be done even if everything above is absolutely 100% provably true.

I think you're right.

It's probably just more virtue signaling from RINOs. I hope to be surprised though.

We have a president whose son is selling kindergarten art for 1/2 million dollars so his father can take bribes. We have a set of intelligence agencies directly interfering with the 1st amendment who framed 800 people to make up a fake insurrection. We had a fake pandemic and were forced to take "vaccines" that have 0 therapeutic effect and have killed people.

To the surprise of no one, the recently released House Energy and Commerce report on the approximately one billion dollar “indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity” (IDIQ) federal contract awarded by the Biden/Harris Administration’s Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to the “Beltway Bandit” Fors Marsh Group (FMG) has received approximately no coverage by corporate media - and hardly on social media, for that matter. The notable exception being the New York Post.

The report documents that what Fors Marsh Group delivered to HHS for the 991M $ in taxpayer dollars it received was to deploy a massive Psychological Warfare campaign on American Citizens, one which employed a wide range of proven disinformation. Disinformation as defined by spreading falsehoods for political purposes. Those following along closely will recall that the Mayorkas Department of Homeland Security defined the spreading of disinformation during the COVIDcrisis as domestic terrorism.

I see we now have a Soviet style Ministry of Propaganda.
