<p>Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) slammed <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/anthony-fauci">Dr. Anthony Fauci</a> during an interview on Monday for the damage that he has done to the United States through the policies that he championed throughout the course of the COVID-19 pandemic.</p>
<p>Fauci retired in December after serving as the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases from 1984 to 2022 and the chief medical advisor to the president from 2021 to 2022.</p>
<p>Cruz&#8217;s remarks on Fox Business come after a report over the weekend revealed that the Department of Energy now concludes with &#8220;low confidence&#8221; that the pandemic originated in a Chinese lab in Wuhan.</p>
<p>&#8220;Dr. Fauci’s behavior on this has been abominable,&#8221; Cruz said. &#8220;I think he has done more damage than any bureaucrat in the history of the United States. He has championed policies that have hurt millions of Americans, hurt millions of school kids in particular.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;And he has also done more to damage the credibility of the United States government when it comes to medical and scientific advice because Dr. Fauci allowed his advice to be politicized,&#8221; he continued. &#8220;We know Dr. Fauci in writing asked Mark Zuckerberg at Facebook to suppress references to the origin of COVID being from a Chinese government lab.&#8221;</p>

<p>Cruz said that he believes that Fauci did so in-part because &#8220;there&#8217;s a very real possibility that Fauci himself bears culpability.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I believe Dr. Fauci has lied to Congress, which is a felony, when he has stated that the federal government did not fund gain of function research in in the Wuhan Institute of Virology,&#8221; Cruz said. &#8220;Since then, the National Institutes for Health in writing has contradicted that. And if the Biden Justice Department were enforcing the law, they ought to be investigating Dr. Fauci for lying to Congress, which is a federal crime. To date, the Biden DOJ has been too political to hold Dr. Fauci accountable.&#8221;</p>

<blockquote><p><em>SEN. TED CRUZ (R-TX): Well, Dr. Fauci’s behavior on this has been abominable. I think he has done more damage than any bureaucrat in the history of the United States. He has championed policies that have hurt millions of Americans, hurt millions of school kids in particular. And he has also done more to damage the credibility of the United States government when it comes to medical and scientific advice because Dr. Fauci allowed his advice to be politicized. We know Dr. Fauci in writing asked Mark Zuckerberg at Facebook to suppress references to the origin of COVID being from a Chinese government lab. And he did so I think in part, because there&#8217;s a very real possibility that Fauci himself bears culpability. I believe Dr. Fauci has lied to Congress, which is a felony, when he has stated that the federal government did not fund gain of function research in in the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Since then, the National Institutes for Health in writing has contradicted that. And if the Biden Justice Department were enforcing the law, they ought to be investigating Dr. Fauci for lying to Congress, which is a federal crime.
