He says Fauci knew about long-running funding for dangerous research

What was said

"I think Anthony Fauci was fully aware that, um, the funding that had gone on for various types of dangerous research, dangerous gain-of-function research, had been going on for a very long time. Okay, different viruses, different bacteria."

He offers personal opinion (explicitly calling it “supposition”) that Anthony Fauci was aware of long-running funding for “dangerous research” including “dangerous gain-of-function research,” and suggests Fauci understood how it could look if ties between financing and Wuhan became public. He then says that, based on what’s “out there,” Fauci got the “Proximal Origins of SARS-CoV-2” paper written “with his buddies.”
