'UNDENIABLE ASSET': White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said Thursday that Dr. Anthony Fauci (pictured) had been an undeniable asset to the administrationPressed again on Fauci, Psaki gushed: 'The president and the administration feel that Dr. Fauci has played an incredible role in getting the pandemic under control.' Many emails were redacted, and Fauci was asked during the Thursday morning interview on CNN if he remembers what was said. Fauci also shared a scholar's conclusion in April that there was 'no evidence' the virus emerged from a lab. In response to a Feb. 5 email, Fauci counseled former Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Burwell not to wear a mask on a trip. As the Post noted, there do not appear to emails providing Fauci with concrete evidence of a lab leak theory that he dismissed.
