Rand Paul to block Biden nominees until COVID documents are released.

“I’m telling you I’m not letting anything pass unanimously, I’m blocking everything until you finally turn over some of these records on COVID,” Paul said on Fox Business.

Sen. Rand Paul (R., Ky.) has made a bold move by pledging to block any of President Joe Biden’s nominees until the White House releases documents related to COVID-19.

Paul’s Quest for COVID-19 Records

Paul has been trying to obtain records related to COVID-19 and grants given to the Wuhan Institute of Virology for three years. He claims that the United States is still sending taxpayer money to the Chinese “Academy of Military Medical Research,” an institution whose scientists are members of the Chinese military.

Paul claims that the U.S. government helped China suppress the theory that COVID-19 emerged from a Chinese laboratory, which he calls “inexcusable.”

“For three years, I keep asking for records. And when they finally send records, they send records that aren’t pertinent to the investigation,” Paul said. “I continue to try to extract these records. We’ve only gotten important records through whistleblowers and leaks. There have been no records turned over by the Biden administration.”
