Jeanine Pirro Bizarrely demands Anthony Fauci with Biolabs Ukraine

The day after the Fox News national security reporter Jennifer Griffin corrects Sean Hannity on the subject of biological research facilities in Ukraine, another opinion presenter tried to tie Dr. Anthony Fauci to them without giving any relevant fact to support the strange line of speculation. hers.

On Thursdays roundtable broadcast Fiveco-host Jeanine Pirro wondered if Fauci’s occasional appearances in the media over the past few weeks could be related to coverage of Ukrainian biolabs.

Fauci, the target of many right-wing conspiracy theories Over the past two years, there hasn’t been much on cable TV lately, probably due to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the easing of legal restrictions in the US.

“What I think is interesting about these biolabs… we deny, we deny, we deny. “It’s absurd. Pirro said. “And, isn’t it interesting that we haven’t heard or seen Fauci for weeks?” she said, eliciting laughter from a few of her hosts.

Russia has accused the United States of supporting the development of biological weapons in laboratories in Ukraine – an assertion without evidence that has nevertheless attracted the attention of a number of affiliated media outlets and Republicans – which is likely what Pirro was referring to when she said she’s heard people say don’t “waste any ink on it.”

US officials and independent experts called the Russian statement a textbook example of disinformation from the Kremlin and a possible reason for Russia to use chemical weapons in Ukraine as well as in Syria.

“Why did he disappear?” Pirro asked, adding, “I wanted to ask him if he knew anything about that.”

“Give Fauci a break, for goodness’ sake,” said Geraldo Rivera.

“No, I don’t want to,” Pirro replied. “Now it’s time for him to face some questions.”

A few hours later, Tucker Carlson seems to increase his attacks against Griffinwho reported for Fox News for nearly 25 years, accused the journalists of repeating lies from the Pentagon without “doing any reporting”.
