GRAND INQUISITOR SAYS OOPS

Grand Inquisitor Says Oops BY JEFFREY A. TUCKER DECEMBER 28, 2023

Francis Collins was head of the National Institutes of Health – Anthony Fauci’s parent bureaucracy – during the wreckage caused by the Covid response. Ultimately, Dr. Collins bears a huge measure of the responsibility for the disaster, even if he played the role of the stooge.
