Fauci Cover-up!
[INSIDE JW]
JUDICIAL WATCH FILES LAWSUIT FOR OPENTHEBOOKS.COM FOR
EMPLOYMENT/FINANCIAL RECORDS OF CHRISTINE GRADY, SPOUSE OF ANTHONY
FAUCI

A lot of money flows
[[link removed]]
through the National Institutes of Health, including dollars that
benefit its scientists, and American taxpayers should know the details
because they are subject to the bureaucrats’ edicts.
At the center of many controversies is Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of
the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, part of the
NIH. Few know that his wife, Christine Grady
[[link removed]],
also works for the NIH. She
serves as chief of the Clinical Center’s Department of Bioethics.
What is her role? How much are we paying her?
The NIH won’t say, of course, so we filed a lawsuit on behalf of
American Transparency (OpenTheBooks.com) against the Department of
Health and Human Services. (_American Transparency, d/b/a/
OpenTheBooks.com v. U.S. Department of Health and Human Services_
[[link removed]]
(No. 1:22-cv-02021)).
We sued after HHS failed to respond to an April 8 FOIA request from
OpenTheBooks.com to the NIH asking for records regarding Grady:
* All employment contracts, modifications and addendums regarding
Christine Grady, MSN, PhD, since her hiring as Chief of the Department
of Bioethics.
* Any confidentiality agreements/documents, conflict of interest
waivers or documents, ethics disclosures, and financial and/or
economic interest disclosure documents.
* Grady’s current job description.

is the
largest private repository of records of United States public-sector
spending. Its mission is to post online all publicly available
government spending: “every dime, online, in real time.”
Our lawsuit asks the court to require the department to search for and
produce all responsive records and order the department to stop
withholding non-exempt records related to the FOIA request.
“Once again, NIH is using taxpayer dollars to avoid transparency,
and leaving us no choice but to enter litigation that will also burden
the taxpayer,” said Adam Andrzejewski, CEO and founder of
OpenTheBooks.com. “It’s time for NIH to stop routinely hiding
information as simple as a job description and embrace basic
transparency. We thank our friend at Judicial Watch for helping us get
the answers we deserve.”
An October 2021 lawsuit
[[link removed]]
we have for
OpenTheBooks.com against HHS asks for Anthony Fauci’s employment
contracts; financial, conflict of interest, and confidentiality
disclosure documents; and job description, as well as royalties paid
to NIH employees by outside entities. In May 2022, the lawsuit
uncovered
[[link removed]]
that over a 10-year period, Fauci and others at NIH received more than
$350 million in secretive “royalty” payments from drug companies
and other third parties.
So, you can see why we have good reason to believe that these
financial disclosure records will give Americans a more complete
picture of the conflicts of interest that have compromised NIH—and
Dr. Fauci. That our client had to file a federal lawsuit to gain
access to this basic information speaks volumes.
JUDICIAL WATCH SUES SECRET SERVICE FOR HUNTER BIDEN TRAVEL AND
SECURITY RECORDS
The Secret Service is covering for Hunter Biden.
We just filed a FOIA lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Homeland
Security (DHS) for Secret Service hidden records on Hunter Biden’s
travel and security costs. (_Judicial Watch, Inc. v. U.S. Department
of Homeland Security_
[[link removed]]
(No. 1:22-cv-02097)).
We sued after the Secret Service (a component of DHS) failed to
respond adequately to three separate FOIA requests in March and April
2022 for:
* All records concerning the use of security and/or other services
to Hunter Biden and any companions; and
* All records concerning the use of U.S. Government funds to provide
security and/or any other services to Hunter Biden and any companions.
The Secret Service is violating FOIA law by slow-rolling and hiding
Hunter Biden records. What are they trying to hide?
We have some idea because in June 2020, we received records
[[link removed]]
from the U.S.
Secret Service showing that during the first five-and-a-half years of
the Obama administration, Hunter Biden traveled extensively while
receiving a Secret Service protective detail. During the time period
of the records provided, Hunter Biden took 411 separate domestic and
international flights, including to 29 different foreign countries. He
visited China five times.
The Secret Service records showed that countries and territories
visited by Hunter Biden, between June 2009 and May 2014, included:
* Ethiopia and India on June 14-22, 2009
* Argentina on September 14-17, 2009
* France and Spain on November 9-13, 2009
* Canada on February 12-15, 2010
* Dominican Republic on February 18-22, 2010
* Puerto Rico on March 20-27, 2010
* China on April 6-9, 2010
* Belgium, Spain, and the United Kingdom on May 5-8, 2010
* UK, Egypt, Kenya, South Africa, Ascension Island, U.S. Virgin
Islands on June 6-13, 2010
* Denmark and South Africa on August 9-24, 2010
* Hong Kong, Taiwan and China on April 16-22, 2011
* Mexico on May 15-17, 2011
* Colombia, France, United Arab Emirates and France again on
November 1-11, 2011
* UK and Russia on February 15-18, 2012
* Germany, France and UK on February 1-5, 2013
* UK and Ireland on March 20-22, 2013
* China on June 13-15, 2013
* Switzerland and Italy on July 26-August 7, 2013
* Japan, China, South Korea and the Philippines on December 2-9,
2013
* China and Qatar on May 7-14, 2014
According to reports
[[link removed]],
then-Vice President Joe Biden and Hunter Biden flew on Air Force Two
for an official trip to Beijing in December 2013. The records obtained
by Judicial Watch from the Secret Service show Hunter Biden arrived in
Tokyo on December 2, 2013, and departed for Beijing two days later.
While it is typical for the families of the president and vice
president to travel with them, questions have been raised about
whether Hunter Biden used the government trip to further his business
interests.
I’ll report back to you if and when we get documents on Hunter’s
latest activities!
HHS PAYS $40K TO STUDY WHY KIDS “FAVOR WHITENESS AND MALENESS”
Critical race theory is everything in the Biden administration, and
showering taxpayer dollars on academics to push is exposed by our
_Corruption Chronicles_ blog -- which reports
[[link removed]]
the latest use – and abuse -- of your money.
In yet another racial equity venture funded by American taxpayers, a
private university is getting tens of thousands of dollars from the
U.S. government to study the “developmental trajectory of
children’s beliefs that white males—more so than black males,
white females, or black females—best exemplify a person.” The
three-year research project, to be conducted by academics at New York
University (NYU), seeks to uncover why kids “favor Whiteness and
maleness over other identities,” according to the grant announcement
[[link removed]]
issued
by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the agency
doling out the cash for the study.
The project is part of a broader HHS Equity Action Plan
[[link removed]]
designed to transform how the agency does business in order “to
concretely advance equity.” Under the overhaul a Minority Health
Social Vulnerability Index was launched to help identify racial and
ethnic communities at the greatest risk for disproportionate impact
and adverse outcomes due to COVID-19 and a Racial Equity in Postpartum
Care Challenge was created to reduce disparities and improve outcomes
for postpartum “Black or African American” women enrolled in
Medicaid, the government’s insurance program for the poor. HHS has
also doled out millions of dollars
[[link removed]]
to “minority-serving institutions” charged with strengthening
COVID-19 vaccine confidence among racial and ethnic minority groups as
well as underserved communities.
In the agency’s latest racial equity endeavor, researchers at NYU
will receive more than $40,000 to study “societal assumptions
regarding typical personhood and their effects on reasoning
development.” The HHS grant announcement further specifies that the
goal is to “uncover the development processes by which children
acquire the belief that white males represent the default person—a
pattern rooted in ideologies of androcentrism (centering the
experiences of men) and ethnocentricism (centering the experiences of
white people) prevalent in the United States.” The document goes on
to state that “despite national rises in racial and gender
diversity, white men remain vastly overrepresented across a host of
domains within the U.S., from media, to politics, to clinical
research.” That overrepresentation poses severe costs to the rest of
society, the nation’s health agency writes, identifying the victims
as “women of all races, men of color, and gender-nonconforming
individuals.”
The Biden administration is particularly concerned with embedded
disparities in health, where clinical trials have historically
prioritized the experiences, perspectives, and health outcomes of
white men. “To address this issue, we must understand when and how
the tendency to view white males as default people develops across
childhood, as well as the environmental factors that underlie this
phenomenon,” the HHS grant document states. Specifically, the
government wants to know the developmental trajectory by which
children’s default representations of people begin to favor
whiteness and maleness over other identities, the domains across which
children activate a white male default to guide social reasoning, and
the sociocultural and ecological factors that can prevent the
development of those beliefs. “Young children actively construct
knowledge to make sense of their social environments,” according to
the grant document. “As part of this process, children absorb
complex streams of information from the sources around them, including
parents, peers, and broader societal institutions (e.g., media).”
HHS proceeds to explain that the beliefs children acquire tend to
reflect the dominant ideologies embedded in their specific cultural
contexts. In the U.S., those ideologies include the previously
mentioned “androcentrism and ethnocentrism.”
The taxpayer-funded researchers are expected to clarify the scope of
children’s beliefs about who best exemplifies a person by testing
the consistency of the belief across domains and uncovering the
features of children’s sociocultural and ecological environments
that underlie beliefs about who best exemplifies a person. “The
diversity afforded by this platform allows us to capture a holistic
picture of the phenomenon in question and the mechanisms underlying
it, broadening both the empirical rigor and real-world impacts of our
findings,” according to HHS. It will only cost American taxpayers
$40,391, though the agency could obligate more funding at any time.
Until next week,
