Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Kash Patel said on “The Joe Rogan Experience” Friday that the FBI and Senate investigators have located the communications of Biden White House medical advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci.
Patel confirmed the FBI has “multiple investigations” open on the subject. The FBI has opened investigations at three field offices into the concealment of federal records, efforts by federal scientists to mislead the public about the possible origins of the pandemic and other COVID-related matters, according to Just The News.
Patel said the communications were located by the FBI with the help of Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky and other senators on Capitol Hill who have for years been seeking for documents from Fauci’s former agency, the National Institutes of Health (NIH), related to alleged efforts by his inner circle to evade the law on federal records transparency and his false statements under oath that the NIH did not fund gain-of-function research on coronaviruses in Wuhan, China.

“We just had a great breakthrough this week on Fauci,” Patel told host Joe Rogan. “They had always been looking for Fauci’s original phones … phones and devices he used while he was back in Trump 1.0 during COVID. And nobody had found it until two days ago.”
“Now look, your audience and everyone listening shouldn’t jump to the conclusion: ‘Everything is in there!’ We’ll look at it, we’ll pull it, we’ll rip it as we say, and maybe it’s deleted and maybe it’s not. But at least we found it,” Patel said. “At least now we can tell the American people we’ve been looking. Because it is of public importance to figure out: Did that guy lie? Did he intentionally mislead the world and cause countless deaths?”
“I think a victory for the American people, that we broke with Congress, is that we did find it, we’re not done, we’re still looking, and we’re on the case,” Patel concluded.
Evidence emerged in documents subpoenaed by a congressional committee in 2024 that top advisers to Fauci attempted to delete emails relevant to the Wuhan Institute of Virology and its American collaborator EcoHealth Alliance, signaling the intention to delete so-called “smoking guns,” and used strategic misspellings to evade searches through the Freedom of Information Act.
