Government watchdog sues for Fauci's financial disclosures

He 'wields unrivaled political power in our federal government'

A government watchdog has sued the federal government on behalf of OpenTheBooks.com to obtain access to Anthony Fauci's financial disclosure records as well as royalties paid to employees of the National Institutes of Health.

Fauci has been in the news almost constantly since the pandemic began, but not necessarily in a good way all the time.

"Anthony Fauci wields unrivaled political power in our federal government, so it is urgent the American people have full access to his financial disclosures," said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton.

Fauci is the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease, a part of the NIH, and in that position advised President Trump first on COVID issues, then Joe Biden.

Last January, OpenTheBooks discovered that Fauci makes more money, $434,312, than any other federal worker, including the president, and a large portion of that came in a special "Permanent pay adjustment" to "Compensate him for the level of responsibility especially as it relates to his work on biodefense research activities."

Explained OpenTheBooks, "In other words, Fauci was paid to prevent future pandemics."

In June 2021, Judicial Watch revealed that the NIAID under Fauci gave the Wuhan lab $826,000 for bat coronavirus research from 2014 to 2019.
