That's what Fauci said, in response to being asked about research which was very similar to what would be called 'gain of function'.
Good thing he's got that broad, sweeping pardon. Just in case someone was doing it with his money, behind his back.

well, I'm not gonna weep for them, they most certainly are wealthy enough to replace what was stolen, and what can't be replaced, that will be a lesson for them.
but he really is a dictator...and your can detect FEARWhile the vast majority of scholars surveyed say Trump is pushing the country toward autocracy, other professors strongly disagree. James Campbell, a retired political scientist at the University at Buffalo, SUNY, says Trump is using legitimate presidential powers to address long-standing problems. Campbell points to Trump's use of tariffs to try to push companies to bring manufacturing jobs back to the United States. In recent decades, economic globalization led to catastrophic layoffs of everyone from furniture makers in North Carolina to auto assembly-line workers in the Midwest as firms sent work overseas, especially to China.
"I think they've done an excellent job," Campbell says of the Trump administration.
Campbell adds that he thinks many political scientists may see Trump as autocratic because they don't like him or his politics.
But many democracy scholars say the Trump administration is using tactics employed by autocrats, and they point to specific actions. For instance, Trump's Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is investigating all the major broadcast outlets — except for Rupert Murdoch's Fox, which owns the pro-Trump Fox News Channel.
Trump White House seeks tighter grip on message with new limits on press
The FCC is questioning how CBS edited an interview of Trump's 2024 rival, Kamala Harris, and whether NPR and PBS are complying with regulations on corporate underwriting spots. The FCC can revoke local broadcast licenses, which could damage the networks financially.

Scheppele says Orbán also targeted universities that had been critical of his government.
"In the first two years, Orbán cut the university budgets by 40%," she says.
Another way to measure authoritarianism, according to Levitsky, is whether publicly opposing the government comes with a cost. He says — under Trump — it does. For instance, Trump has issued executive orders barring lawyers with firms he doesn't like from entering government buildings and representing government contractors.
Fear of government retribution is now spreading through society. A scholar who spoke to NPR for this story later asked not to be quoted, saying he feared the Trump administration might try to punish him by slashing research grants he's working on. In a recent NPR series on free speech, many people did not want to be identified by name.
Lovely how the "dept of education" is pared down to a debt collection office, and no longer helps providing people with an educationTero wrote: ↑Tue Apr 22, 2025 11:47 amYou went to college and studied woke things like science and history? MAGA and Trump must punish you.

He left enough of the department education to collect money. Once all the money is collected, all of the federal govt. is cut off from colleges.
