Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis called for former White House chief medical adviser Dr. Anthony Fauci"to be held accountable" in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic on Friday.
The Florida governor was visiting Iowa promoting his new book, The Courage to be Free, when he claimed “the elites were wrong" about numerous things pushed during the pandemic, including lockdowns, mask mandates, closing schools, and denying natural immunity. Among the things"the elites" were wrong about, and"indeed they lied," was the theory that COVID-19 originated from a lab leak, according to the New York Post.
DeSantis's comments on Fauci mirror statements he made on Feb. 28 during an appearance on Fox News, when he said Fauci"needs to be held accountable." During his television appearance, one of the things DeSantis said Fauci was wrong about was the COVID-19 vaccine when Fauci said, “you wouldn’t get COVID if you took it."
DeSantis rose to prominence in both the Republican Party and the political landscape amid the COVID-19 pandemic for taking a stand against mandates for both masks and vaccines.On Friday, the House of Representatives voted unanimously on the COVID Origins Act, which would force the Biden administration to declassify all information it has gathered on the origins of COVID-19 as questions remain on whether the virus originated in nature or as a result of a lab leak in Wuhan, China.
DeSantis is seen by many as a strong contender for the Republican Party's candidate in the 2024 presidential elections, though he has yet to announce if he will actually run. As of Saturday, the Republicans who have declared their candidacy include former President Donald Trump, former United Nations ambassador Nikki Haley, and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy.
GovRonDeSantis Can Ron share the scientific data to support his claim?
GovRonDeSantis Odd thing, as nobody has Hard or Factual Evidence on COVID’s cause or where it originated, as China does not have an open door policy. If Lawmakers truly thought China was a threat, they would demand that the 338 American Companies get out of Communist China. $$$ Talks
GovRonDeSantis Trump botched the response to the pandemic, encouraged negligent behavior against safety protocols, and he lied to the American people about its high risk while he told the true risk to his Elite donors, consequently causing the greatest economic/health crisis of our generation.
GovRonDeSantis Make no mistake, DeSantis’ governing style is one of punishment, control, intimidation, economic thuggery and coercion–pure fascism! Yet, Trump will order him to drop to his knees and kiss the ring and beta-male DeSantis will lower his face in total submission and simply obey!
GovRonDeSantis Go Ron Go.
GovRonDeSantis Impeach Biden now.
GovRonDeSantis Hmm
GovRonDeSantis If the House COVID Committee discovers proof of the origin of the virus will MSM conspire to discount the truth?
GovRonDeSantis Biden admin Caught in another lie.
GovRonDeSantis And so they're going to hold hearings with GOP Senators who don't know that a vaccination and an inoculation aren't the same thing.
GovRonDeSantis Also... 'Launched', not 'leaked'.
