Dr. David Morens, 78, served as a senior adviser to Anthony Fauci (Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases) from 2006 through 2022. Morens sits at the epicenter of the NIAID coverup to hide the origins of COVID-19.
[Source Legal Documents] – [Plea Agreement] – [Stipulation of Facts]
Today, Fauci’s Senior Advisor Dr. David Morens plead guilty to “Conspiracy to Commit Offenses and to Defraud the United States” in connection with his conspiring with Peter Danzak, President of EcoHealth Alliance, Dr Gerald Keusch, associate director at Boston University’s National Emerging Infectious Disease Laboratory Institute and a recipient of funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), together with others to defraud the public about NIH-funded gain-of-function research and the origin of COVID.
Morens and others plotted to conceal/destroy federal records re: COVID-19 and federal grants to avoid FOIA and the Federal Record Act. Morens admits to using his gmail account to intentionally defraud the U.S. government and conceal communication and records about his activities. In addition, Morens admits to receiving “gifts” of material value in exchange for his efforts on behalf of the co-conspirators.
The conspiracy involved a “kickback” scheme in which Morens accepted and was promised gifts – including bottles of wine and meals at Michelin-starred restaurants – in exchange for performing “official acts that were favorable” to his co-conspirators.
VIA CBS – Washington — A former senior adviser at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases has pleaded guilty to a charge stemming from a scheme to hide federal records during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Under a deal reached with federal prosecutors in Maryland, David Morens, 78, agreed to plead guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit offenses and to defraud the United States. He faces up to five years in prison.
Morens, a senior adviser at NIAID’s Office of the Director from 2006 to 2022, was indicted in April and charged with five counts for what prosecutors said at the time was his role in a scheme to defraud the U.S. by shielding federal records related to the COVID-19 pandemic from the public.
Tim Belevetz, a lawyer for Morens, said, “By pleading guilty today, Dr. Morens has taken responsibility for what he did and will continue to do so.”
Prosecutors said Morens worked with two co-conspirators. The first, “co-conspirator 1,” served as the president and CEO of a New York-based nonprofit that received a grant in 2014 titled “Understanding the Risk of Bat Coronavirus Emergence.” The Wuhan Institute of Virology in Wuhan, China, received a subaward from the New York group on the coronavirus grant, prosecutors said, though the National Institutes of Health terminated the award in April 2020 following allegations that COVID-19 emerged from the lab. The NIAID is part of the NIH.
The second co-conspirator was described in charging documents as a physician, scientist and professor who worked for an academic institute that received federal grants.
Emails made public by the GOP-led Select Committee on the Coronavirus Pandemic indicate that the New York-based nonprofit is the EcoHealth Alliance and co-conspirator 1 is its president, Peter Daszak.
The indictment stemmed from several Freedom of Information Act requests NIAID received between April 2020 and December 2022 that sought communications between Morens, the New York-based nonprofit and its president. (read more)
Is he talking?
Let’s hope so. However, doubt any meaningful will be taken against this lot.
Only until he gets a visit from the Clintonistas
Or the Biden Crime Family!
Praise GOD!!! Fight! Fight! Fight!
Did he agree to plead in return for lesser charges and cooperation against other possible defendants? I guess time will tell but Fauxi does NOT have a pardon on state charges and I believe there are several AGs that are looking into crimes he committed against their citizens.
Florida was talking about it…but like all else, I will believe it when there are arrests, indictments, etc….
True
I have almost lost complete faith in this bunch who call themselves leaders.
I am glad Dr. David Morens pleaded guilty to defrauding the American people. What he did with others is despicable. So many Americans were harmed.
It is a terrible reflection on doctors with a God complex and lust for power and money.
He defrauded only a process; not yet the contents of the entire message.
Fauci’s preemptive pardon, issued by autopen by WH staff on Jan 19, 2025, and highly likely without a sentient Biden’s knowledge or direction, should be challenged and if at all possible thrown out. Don’t know why DOJ is not pursuing such challenges. But it should be done.
I agree on all points! Not sure if all of these info drops are leading up to a point where Fauxi will have to assert his pardon directly and then the DOJ will announce that it was not legally signed and will not be honored.
Hope springs eternal…. 🙏
When Fauci was busy invoking the 5th a few weeks ago, one of those senators should have asked him point-blank if he had refused or accepted the pardon. But none did. The 5th would have been perfectly appropriate if he had refused the pardon. But none of those oh-so-smart senators would go there. Those people can and often are simply infuriating.
Excellent point – had they been told to NOT ask that question or did it just not occur to them? Aren’t many of them attorneys?
Yes, many of them are attorneys and a few very highly qualified, at least before they got to the Senate and got stupid. I suspect it is all about the money, which means protecting big pharma.
It’s just a show. They don’t need to be told.
You can’t expect them to ask a question they don’t want to know the answer to. What has the Senate done recently to earn their overly large salaries besides go on a few vacations? They can’t/won’t even find out if one of them is dead or alive.
It was already known Fauci had aggressively pursued getting the pardon, with panicked follow up on the very last morning of Biden’s term in office to issue it. You don’t ask when you already know the answer is not going to help you.
Pardon doesn’t cover his HIV contributions either….
Yep – Remdesivir in 2021 is what AZT was in the 1980s…a failed cancer drug that was “repurposed” but caused MORE deaths than the banned old school med that actually worked (Ivermectin in 2020/ Bactrim in the 80s) simply because Fauxi held patents on both!
I was a journalism student who worked at restaurants in college, so I had a lot of close friends and co-workers who were gay. There was a LOT of information floating around back then about who this man was and what his role was in both the creation of the “virus” and his refusal to accept alternative options for treatment. No one had more information than Celia Farber of Spin Magazine but much of her work is no longer available. In short, he is, and always has been, a maniacal melomaniac who considers individual rights and lives to be secondary to his inflated ego and desire for immortality!
He doesn’t need a pardon to cover his HIV involvement. The statute of limitations has already run out decades ago on anything that he might have or could have been charged with.
They is value harvesting low hanging fruit first.
Regardless of his criminal sentence, hes getting off to easy
The fact that he lied to the American public and his lies led to crimes against humanity and economic calamity all for a couple bottles of booze and a nice steak is mind boggling.
Speaks to a darker purpose imo
If either you or I did something even remotely like this we’d be put away. Justice is for sale in this country.
It’s a small club and we ain’t in it.
Nor would we want to be in it “the club”. Our power remains in working around it.
Jesus said:
Matthew 10:28 NKJV
And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
There will be justice done on God’s time. Until that day I suggest reading the Word of God.
grrrrr
groan
sigh
eye roll to last week
we already are doing that
Yes, and keep praying that our leadership has the strength and power from God to do the right thing, in the midst of how hard it is and how so many are against them.
✝️🇺🇸🦅🙏🙏🙏
Agree! However, with a guilty plea, no one knows what “conditions” or deals were made in exchange for additional info. While I still don’t believe the doj will do a damn thing, the fact that Mengele Fauci will no longer have “star status”, perhaps Americans will finally wake up to the corrupt and evil goings-on during the covid nonsense.
He plead guilty to conspiracy so there will be his co-conspirators charged with similar or the same crimes. They have stated Conspirator 1 and 2 so they will both be charged.
Dasek, and Eco- Health. The apples are falling from the tree.
Nothing protects him from state courts, and he tainted himself now to ever issue a valid defense for his actions. The diary stands as his primary witness against himself, which he acknowledges as his own private writings in his opening statement. He hung himself in any state court.
This was a only process violation; not an intentional content abuse.
“too” easy… lol
Nothing will ever happen to these people. The only people in this Country who are held accountable now are us “SERFS”
Things are already happening. No reason to feel so wounded.
Bastards got a scape goat
It is about time one of the underlings of leading Branch Covidians goes down. Now how about his co-conspirators?
How about Scarf Lady? How about Mike 30 pieces of Silver Pence? How about the Bill Gates of Hell?
How about all of the Media Whores and Shills?
…and I would be remiss to forget all of the Dictator Branch Covidian Governors and some Mayors…
Don’t forget the Angel of Death here in Ohio who has a good shot of beating Vivek Ganapathy Ramaswamy for our Governorship…
Oh I won’t. But how about the Uniparty teeing up a Governors race between a Pajeet grifter and a Nazi Dr?
I am so sick of lesser evils…
Ohio: even though I went to college there, it is too far afield of my experience under the Branch Covidian jackboot to be aware. How about Cuomo, Charley “Parker” Baker, Gretchen the Witchmer, Phill what’s his name the illegal alien vote stuffer in New Jersey, Newscum, Michelle “CCP” Wu, etc and too many others to list.
Any other nominations?
P.S. I more or less renounced my association with my alma mater when they were one of the last dozen schools in the country with a poison death shot mandate 3 or 4 years on.
I published my letter to the President of Kenyon College, a ‘public health’ academic, on this here Treehouse.
Woof. Kenyon not Oberlin but it’s no Hillsdale either.
Kenyon, an institution, which at one time boasted a proud literary tradition, is now one of ‘diversity and inclusion’, which is so Barack Obomination-esque of them, to the tune of $93K a year.
Lil mikey dewine under advice of Amy “angel of death” Acton was the FIRST state to shut down because of covidiocy.
Therefore I nominate her for special consideration.
Sounds as though she is an Arch-Branch Covidian. Surely, even Democrats won’t vote for her?
Have they not had enough family, relatives, friends and colleagues die from the poison death shot, or, are they simply not aware?
Of course, with the alternative being Swampy…
The first person to talk gets the best deal.
the 1st domino……
Was Morens the guy who said the FOIA lady showed him how to make documents invisible to FOIA searches?
How in the hell do this person receive so many upvotes, all the time. Especially on this kind of statement?
50 lashes with a wet noodle by our government. Don’t hold your breath for accountability.
^ This … sadly
Was it RFK Jr. who was lamenting the fact that no one trusts the CDC any more? Sadly, the same goes for the Justice Department. And, unless we see some high profile scalps (and see them soon), that’s not going to change. I’d like to believe that all of the radical Marxist political operatives have been ousted from the department, but I just don’t. Without serious consequences, these shenanigans are going to happen again and again.
The fact that Kash P. is still in charge of the FBI is an indication of where the FBI is. Do you ever wonder why he stopped the investigation on the Charlie Kirk murder? He is way too involved. Reels on Facebook full of people wondering who the real shooter is and it’s not the one sitting in jail. In fact, some are saying Mossad is involved, that the factory that made the mike or whatever it was that killed him burned to the ground just a few weeks later and 16 or 17 people were killed. Wonder if it was the same factory that made the Blackberries for Israel. So many questions and so few answers – on much.
I have a foil hat I’ll sell you…
I`ll take one.
likely till first week of November…..
… nonprofit that received a grant in 2014 …
Didn’t Fauci’s pardon extend back to 2014?
yes
Chances are the things he destroyed are a LOT worse than the things we know. Anyway, a domino has fallen.
Next?
Well, you mean the written words on documents would appear “worse than the things we’ve read about.
We sure as hell know the devastation suffered by those who were denied proper life-saving medical attention.
Murdered and tortured with ventilators.
For oxygen saturation numbers. Remember this when they clap that finger tool on you now, as one of your “vital signs”.
He may have destroyed paper notes and files but it sounds like they got him on EMAILS and electronic communications have a way of coming back to life. The NSA probably has copies of every single item ever sent by a government employee or contractor.
What a Moren!
What a
MorenMaroon!fify
He’ll skate…
..no honey…he will sing on…high note…..
And I’ve heard that “health” insurance rates are going to go up again. The whole Obamacare scam is going to collapse as more and more people refuse to listen to the “experts” because the “experts” are a bunch of greedy liars.
Everything continues to increase in price, not just as fast (supposedly). You really can’t trust the government on anything.
I had been hungry for a roast so when I was at a locally owned grocery store this afternoon, I put a 2.69 lb. roast in my basket. Walked around getting potatoes, carrots and onions. The more I thought about spending almost $30 for that roast, the less tasty it was for me. So I said, Self, you’re not spending that for a roast so I went around and put everything back where I got it. Everything in my life is getting more expensive. Every recurring bill I have has had an increase, including my yearly rent increase. Thankful I can still live, even with the increases. Thankful for my DH who worked hard and made investments.
Tinned sardines offer superior nutrients and protein. They are not all that bad. Try Trades Joe’s brand.
I agree. They won’t taste as good as a ‘roast’, tho’. They ARE filled with ‘goodies’.
OK…… do not get panicky…we are only in the very beginning of Gold Age…
The drug companies have controlled the medical schools and “The Physicians’ Desk Reference” (PDR) for more than 50+ years. My 46 edition PDR was from 1992. My opinion is the drug companies also control the “health insurance companies”, food/agriculture and many other aspects of our lives. Beware…bill
Everything is so formulaic today, metrics, standard practice protocoal test scores and low touch. That is not health care either. So what are we paying for? A promise, a pretense, a pill and a modern day witch doctor.
The scam was Barry assumed if you had heath care *insurance*, you had “health care”. He committed strategic error. Why did everyone go along with him?
B Hussein Obola didn’t assume that gubmint healthcare was good for our health. He knew exactly what he was doing.
The “maroons” who worshipped him did all the assuming. You know, those people who line up for “free” stuff like poison death shots.
The love of “free” stuff gets them every time!
Dirtbag!
If he floats, he is a witch…burn him!
now, that’s funny right there
And if he sinks & drowns, he is not. Let him go.
” How do you know shes a witch?? ”
” Because she looks like one! “.
Hehe….
“She turned me into a newt!”
“A newt” incredulously
“I got better,” sheepishly.
I cannot get over the fact that “they” conspired to keep secret the adverse impacts of the jab on pregnant women and developing babies. I cannot forget or forgive that. None of us should.
That is where Fauci will finally squirm, in state court. Every clot shot miscarriage and a lower burden of proof for wrongful death.
Make sure the conspirators COVID vaccinations are up to date.
His choice in suits make me question his sanity. Did the Joker dress him?
His wife dresses him.
..you get gooooood laugh if you see his shoes….
On its face, this is fantastic news and should lead to other poisonous fruit. On the other hand, only 5 years in prison?!?!?!
He ain’t lookin’ too healthy in that pic…
I’m not sure a couple bottles of wine and a few fine meals turned his head.
“Co-Conspirator 1 gifted Morens wine for his “behind-the-scenes shenanigans,” and arranged for its delivery to Morens’s Maryland residence.
Morens then allegedly identified an official act that he could perform to “deserve” the gift, which was to author a scientific commentary in a prominent medical journal advocating that COVID-19 had natural origins.
Co-Conspirator 1 suggested he would provide Morens with additional things of value, including meals at Michelin-starred restaurants in Paris, New York, and Washington, D.C.”

DOJ PRESS RELEASE:
…”David M. Morens, 78, of Chester, Maryland, pled guilty to conspiracy to commit offenses and to defraud the United States. Morens served as a senior advisor in NIAID’s Office of the Director from 2006 through 2022.
Kelly O. Hayes, U.S. Attorney for the District of Maryland, announced the guilty plea with Special Agent in Charge Jimmy Paul, FBI Baltimore Field Office, and Special Agent in Charge Marcus L. Sykes, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General (HHS-OIG).
According to his guilty plea, Morens, Co-Conspirator 1, Co-Conspirator 2, and others conspired during the COVID-19 pandemic to defraud the United States after NIH terminated Co-Conspirator 1’s grant. NIH terminated the grant, Understanding the Risk of Bat Coronavirus Emergence, based on allegations that COVID-19 emerged from the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) in Wuhan, China. NIAID awarded the grant to Company 1 and Co-Conspirator 1, who made a subaward to the WIV. “….

Will someone actually go to jail?
He’s 78. If that was me, I would be a lot more worried about where I’m going shortly!!! But yeah, he needs to pay for it on earth also!
P.S. Ditto for all the others!
Is this a trick question?
Over educated and thought he could fool everyone. No doubt he has made a plea deal to stay out of prison…bill
Arrogant, with a god complex, bill.
Fauci, Dazak, Baric, Collins, Birx…the list of names is never ending.
People were nothing to them but millions of amoeba in a Petri dish to be experimented upon.
The most hideous crime ever committed.
And he’ll (Morens) will get a slap on the hand by some Marxist black robe parading as a judge because, “Mr. Moren has contributed much to society besides making this one mistake, and because of his age the court has determined the defendant most likely would not survive time in prison (completely ignoring the fact that his repetitive illegal behavior contributed directly to the death of millions) and as such, imposes upon him … a term of 5 years PROBATION.”
Wait for it.
Prison MAY be the least of his worries when has to answer to God for what he did.
The mRNA injections have forever polluted the human gene pool. Our God-given, human DNA is really what’s at stake here.
Lucifer is coming for our souls. I knew that right away. When will everyone else catch on?
No doubt Lucifer has a special place in hell reserved for these people. Imagine destroying the human genome for a couple bottles of wine.
And his sentence is …
Gonna be hellacious!
It’s a start.
Now, let’s get on with prosecuting the criminals involved in the democrat / RINO’s 2021 coups d’état against our Constitutional Republic, our Constitution and our President Trump.
The planning started two years earlier.
Let their march to the gallows begin …… from the lowest member to the leaders …….. they all must be charged, tried, convicted and sentenced to die for their treasonous acts.
No stone must be left unturned to get them and the message for future generations must be strong …… never, never get involved in such treasonous crimes against the USA! You will pay the ultimate price.
MAGA / America First isn’t just our motto, it is our duty!
Yes! Cactus, your post is so right on! Similar to the Nuremburg Trials, ALL of the treasonous heathen need to be rounded up, charged, and tried – letting the chips fall where they may.
Why this has not yet happened is beyond me and that of MANY American citizens.
The attempted coup de’tat has been so clearly laid out and outlined over the last 8-9 years that even a blind man can see it, yet nothing??
IMO, in order to restore and salvage our country, and The People’s belief in the same, each and every one of those arrogant, self-serving traitors need to be brought to justice – or – we’re just experiencing a “pause” before the same schitt roars back to life once again because surely it’s still smoldering.
Or we can continue to pretend it never happened.
Where is that worthless, little worm, Dr. Tony (“I am Science” and I love to torture Beagle puppies to death) Fauci ???
Fading into the mist as his talismans captivate the crowd.
Unfortunately
When Fauci went on an extreme begging tour with Brain-dead Biden for an eleven year plenary pardon for all crimes and criminality, he forgot to get the same sweeping pardon for all his henchmen and all of their henchmen, etc.; so there will plenty of heads to roll.
Let’s see them heads roll.
Fauci,the angel of death should rot in hell, we can’t for get cuomo he killed he murdered alot senior citizens. All these greedy evil sons of bitches. May be it we get serious about punishing these evil type of people. We can get our country and our people back in GODS FAVOR. WE NEED TO GET BACK TO THE RULE OF LAW AND PUNISH ALL THESE SCUMBAGS !!!
Will this get mentioned on mainstream news???
If he is a prelude to Fauci rather than a substitute for Fauci, fine. Otherwise, “accept no substitutes” for the Gain-of-Genocide man – thank you Gipper for that fabulous descriptor.
Prelude.
I do not understand how, in Fauci’s case, a “pardon” creates a super citizen immune to justice and consequences to all illegal acts he committed? That’s NOT a PARDON.
Should’ve been charged one count for each email deleted or used outside of the official email system.
Whether or not Fauci’s pardon is upheld, nothing prevents him from civil suits. Every woman that miscarried can sue. Every one of us can sue for mental anguish due to the shutdown, the masks, the 6 feet rules, etc. all of which he lied about. Sue him into bankruptcy
The guy is not only a crook he’s a cheap crook.
Finally accountability! Yeah Todd!
Want to stop corruption?
Downsize the federal govt to DOD, State, and ICE.
DOI, IRS, EPA, USDA, DOE, NASA, and most others can be eliminated.
But how will our politicians launder our taxes?
No honor among thieves…
FraudXi made sure that he got a pardon for himself & left everyone else hangin in the breeze. Including his wife.
Now the 1st domino falls…
https://www.thefocalpoints.com/p/niaids-david-morens-pleads-guilty
https://www.thefocalpoints.com/p/president-bidens-preemptive-pardon
Good.. now where is the cash he gained in this grift.? I want all of the fortunes made from their fraud returned to the taxpayer coffers…
I had to work for a living, scrimp and save for too long to be on the quickly vanishing low end of the middle class economic scale while taxpayer employees steal because they can..
Classic democrat legacy.. they lie and people die..
Waiting for the coward Fauci to off himself.
Narcissists at his level can’t handle the public humiliation and shame of being convicted and sentenced to prison.
Hope he gets right with God before he does it. But I hope he does it.
I hope he never gets right with anything but his master.
the whole rotten bunch followed orders from holocaust central command and will be protected. the same reason all government officials are protected, they followed orders. the only ones that get nailed are the ones that strayed from the path.
I have ZERO confidence in our judicial system.
We have a functioning Judicial system?
Who knew
He had to lie because the Vaxx is just too safe and effective.
A step in the right direction! Get a finger out of the dyke and it may turn into a flood!
A step in the right direction! Get a finger out of the dike and it may turn into a flood!
When are they going after Mrs. Fauci. Bet she was ridin’ dirty too.
NIAID is a part of NIH.
Who at NIH canceled NIAID’s grant?
And let us not forget all of those people, friends of ours, who were fired by all those companies, for refusing to take the bogus vaccines. When will they find their justice? The company I worked for before I retired sent us all home to work remotely. While working at home the company did a review of all job categories and deemed some as fully remote. Employees were told even when the lock down was over their jobs would be fully 100% remote. They would not be required in the office at all. Test the company mandate to take the first two shots for Covid was still required and people who refused were terminated. Friends of mine with 20 years or more with the company kicked to the curb while they worked 100% remotely and were told they could do so by the company. I know, makes no sense but that was the scary world that we were all forced to live in. Those people deserve compensation for their unfair and what I would call illegal termination.
Co-conspirators 1 and 2 must have names, along with co-conspirators 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8……………………………………..?
The remorse pouring out of all these scumbags , ……… why it’s just too much to witness. They all make me want to vomit.
Please, God, Grant us some mortal justice.
Amen.
If you haven’t seen the video David Morens testimony before the congressional subcommittee, you should watch it on YouTube. To see him squirm and play dumb was astonishing. How this imbecile made it to the highest level in US government is a question for the ages. Hoping he does time and has his medical license and his government pension revoked.
