Declassified ODNI files fuel renewed scrutiny of Fauci, COVID origins

Jul 5, 2026

The segment reports on newly declassified ODNI documents released June 18, 2026, by DNI Tulsi Gabbard alleging Anthony Fauci's role in funding gain-of-function research at Wuhan Institute of Virology, interactions with the intelligence community to shape COVID origins narratives toward a wet market, and early private knowledge of lab-leak indicators. It covers Sen. Rand Paul's subpoena for Fauci's public testimony and Sen. Ron Johnson's comments on biolabs, pardons, and media coverage. The broadcast also briefly addresses broader COVID response failures and unrelated legislative topics like the filibuster and Save America Act. Sourcing draws from the senators' statements, ODNI releases, and prior reporting; no independent experts or opposing voices appear.

Gutfeld segment revives lab-leak claims, Fauci criticism amid new DNI documents

Jun 23, 2026

The segment features Greg Gutfeld and guests (Tom Shillue, Brian Kilmeade, Joe DeVito, Kat Timpf) discussing the COVID-19 pandemic as the result of a lab leak from gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, allegedly funded or enabled by Anthony Fauci. They criticize Fauci for influencing intelligence assessments and the 'Proximal Origin' paper to suppress the lab-leak theory, media censorship, and lasting societal impacts, while calling for accountability and noting new declassified documents. The discussion relies on panel opinions, analogies, and references to congressional testimony and recent DNI releases under Tulsi Gabbard, with no outside experts or counter-sources presented.
