The COVID-19 Lab Leak Theory Investigation is the subject of a FOIA request that the Heritage Foundation is suing the CIA for not complying with.
“This is an action under the Freedom of Information Act (“FOIA”), 5 U.S.C. § 552,to compel production of CIA records relating to allegations that members of the CIA’s COVID Discovery Team, a group of employees tasked with analyzing the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic, received monetary incentives to change their position on the origins of the virus,” the complaint read.

“On September12, 2023, COVID Select Subcommittee Chairman Brad Wenstrup and Rep. Mike Turner, Chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, wrote a letter to CIA Director William Burns requesting documents and information related to alarming allegations brought to their attention by a whistleblower about the CIA’s assessment of the origins ofCOVID-19,” the complaint added.
As per the grievance, the correspondence mentioned:
A senior-level current Agency officer with many decades of experience has come forward to offer the Committees information on the Agency’s investigation into the COVID-19 origins. The Agency put seven officers on a COVID Discovery Team (Team), the whistleblower said. The team was made up of seasoned, multidisciplinary officers with strong scientific backgrounds. The whistleblower claims that when the Team’s evaluation was complete, six of the seven members thought there was enough science and intelligence to conclude with low confidence that COVID-19 originated in a Wuhan, China, laboratory. The only other officer who thought COVID-19 was a virus spread via zoonosis was the seventh and senior member of the team. The whistleblower also claims that the other six members had a large financial incentive to alter their stance in order to reach the final public judgment of ambiguity.
According to The Daily Caller:
Discover the real story behind the creation of COVID-19 by using Heritage’s FOIA request. We are looking for documents from the discovery team’s inception, including any correspondence and bonuses that were sent back and forth between team members and federal representatives from various agencies.
In order to guarantee complete disclosure of non-exempt records sought under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), the Heritage Foundation files lawsuits. Come fight with us for accountability and transparency as we demand that the CIA pay for the expenses expended.
A whistleblower told the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic in September that six agents on the COVID discovery team received financial incentives from the CIA to resign from their positions and deny that the virus originated in a lab in Wuhan, China.
Republican senators Ron Johnson, Rick Scott, Lindsey Graham, and Rand Paul have made a bold move by requesting an explanation. In their September 12 letter to CIA Director William Burns, they request important details about the claims made by the whistleblower. Come along with us as we explore this extraordinary search for the truth.
“The Biden Administration has refused to be transparent with Congress and the American people over the origins of COVID-19,” According to the New York Post, Kyle Brosnan, head lawyer for the Oversight Project, made this statement.

“A CIA whistleblower has made serious allegations that the agency bought off employees of the agency to further obstruct efforts to get to the truth of the virus’s origins. This obstruction cannot stand and we’re fighting in federal court to get to the bottom of this,” he added.
The New York Post also mentioned:
On September 20, the Heritage Foundation’s Oversight Project submitted a FOIA request for materials pertaining to the internal CIA study. According to the complaint, the project has not yet received the requested papers or an explanation for the hold-up.
Since then, Wenstrup has claimed that Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, was once surreptitiously “escorted” into CIA headquarters in order to “influence” the conclusions of those analysts.
The FBI was the first US intelligence agency to establish in February that a lab breach was most likely the source of the coronavirus epidemic.
That following month, the Energy Department released the same assessment, citing fresh intelligence.
However, those agencies and the rest of the US intelligence community declassified their COVID origins conclusions, which comprised most of the evidence, in a 10-page report published months later “agencies assess that SARS-CoV-2 was not genetically engineered.”
However, the research discovered that “genetic engineering” and “biosafety concerns” occurred at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, where a number of scientists experienced symptoms in the fall of 2019 “consistent with but not diagnostic of COVID-19.”
A Government Accountability Office audit states that $2 million in hazardous coronavirus research at a Wuhan lab was paid for by taxpayers. This was made possible by grants from the United States Agency for International Development and the National Institutes of Health, including Fauci’s NIAID.
