A bombshell revelation from FBI Director Kash Patel on “The Joe Rogan Experience” Friday confirmed that the long-sought communications of former White House medical advisor Dr. Anthony Fauci have been located.
This significant breakthrough marks a central turning point in ongoing investigations into the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic and alleged efforts to conceal federal records.
Patel revealed that the FBI, aided by efforts from Republican Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky and other Senate investigators, finally pinpointed Fauci’s “original phones and devices” used during the critical early days of the Trump administration’s COVID-19 response.

For years, senators have been relentlessly pursuing these documents from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Fauci’s former agency, amid concerns about transparency and potentially misleading statements.
“We just had a great breakthrough this week on Fauci,” Patel told host Joe Rogan, highlighting the seismic significance of the discovery. While cautioning against premature conclusions about the content, Patel emphasized, “At least we found it… Because it is of public importance to figure out: Did that guy lie? Did he intentionally mislead the world and cause countless deaths?”
The FBI has now opened “multiple investigations” across three field offices, according to Just The News. These probes are targeting the concealment of federal records, alleged attempts by federal scientists to mislead the public about the pandemic’s origins, and other COVID-related matters.

This development comes after evidence emerged in 2024 through congressional subpoenas, suggesting that top Fauci advisors attempted to delete emails related to the Wuhan Institute of Virology and EcoHealth Alliance, even resorting to “strategic misspellings” to evade Freedom of Information Act searches. These actions ignited widespread alarm about potential “smoking guns” being intentionally hidden.
The discovery of Fauci’s devices reignites the intense debate over his past sworn statements regarding NIH funding of gain-of-function research on coronaviruses in Wuhan, China, which he vehemently denied under oath.
Patel hailed the breakthrough as a “victory for the American people,” asserting that the FBI, in collaboration with Congress, is “on the case” and continuing their thorough investigation.
