Fauci’s Right Hand Man TURNS On Him – Reveals EVERYTHING!

One line on Fauci’s government phone reads like a confession: “I’m sending this via text messaging to avoid any FOIA issues.”

Story Snapshot

A message attributed to Michael Osterholm says texts were used to “avoid FOIA issues.”
The text was reportedly part of a group exchange with top pandemic officials.
Bloomberg previously obtained dozens of Fauci’s texts, showing such records can surface.
Federal guidance says texts about government work are records subject to disclosure.

What the text says and why it matters

Journalist reports say Michael Osterholm sent a group text to Anthony Fauci and others that included the line, “I’m sending this via text messaging to avoid any FOIA issues.” The same exchange included his view that cloth masks offer limited protection, which he said he had stated since 2020. This wording signals awareness of the Freedom of Information Act and how medium choice can shape disclosure. That is not proof of a crime, but it plants a clear intent to reduce paper trails.

Now we know it was all a ruse. A newly released text by Michael Osterholm, member of Biden's Advisory Board, said masks were not effective, N-95's should be worn. Also said he's sending it via text to avoid FOIA issues. Those saying masks didn't work were mocked and censored. pic.twitter.com/6XFzCVoUUw

Bloomberg reported it obtained dozens of Anthony Fauci’s text messages from his government-issued phone. That fact undercuts any assumption that texts sit beyond reach. It also shows how records systems, subpoenas, or targeted searches can pull mobile messages into daylight. The record that matters here is not a rumor. It is a direct quote presented by named reporters and tied to a specific device and official. That makes the content newsworthy on its face.

What the law expects of federal officials who text

Freedom of Information Act obligations do not stop at email. Federal records rules make clear that text messages about government business are records. Agencies must capture, preserve, and search them when responsive. The Department of the Interior’s own bulletin says employees must collect and process texts, on work or personal devices, if they concern agency business. The Federal Records Act requires forwarding messages from non-official accounts to official systems within a set window. That is the baseline.

Congressional oversight documents and past lawsuits show how this plays out when systems falter. Requesters have forced agencies to preserve encrypted app messages and to define a “record” at the level of each text. Courts have accepted narrow searches when phones were lost, but they still treated texts as records. The pattern is simple: if officials work by text, those texts carry the same duty to be retained and disclosed when the law calls for it. That is not a gray area.

How the Osterholm line fits a larger transparency fight

Oversight material on Anthony Fauci’s circle already flagged side channels and records gaps. A House release quotes a senior adviser saying he “may have” used personal email to avoid the Freedom of Information Act. That allegation widened concerns about back channels during the pandemic. Against that backdrop, Osterholm’s line about “avoid any FOIA issues” reads less like casual phrasing and more like a tactic. It hints at a method to shape what the public can see later. That undermines trust.

Supporters may argue no law was broken and the message still exists, so the system worked. That claim has some weight: the text did surface, and Bloomberg’s earlier trove shows mobile records can be disclosed. Yet the intent signaled by those words clashes with the spirit of open government. American conservative values prize limited government and strong accountability. When officials discuss policy off the obvious record, people paying the bills lose visibility. That is not how trust is earned.

What should happen next and what to watch

Agencies should confirm whether the full thread, metadata, and attachments are archived in official systems. Investigators should ask if all recipients forwarded the exchange to their agency accounts as the Federal Records Act requires. If any used personal devices or encrypted apps, those records should be preserved now and ingested. Congress and inspectors general can press for retention logs and device inventories to close gaps before more data goes missing. That is the minimum standard for credibility.

Public health leaders can still repair trust. They can publish retention policies, audit results, and timelines for compliance. They can commit to using official channels for policy talk, with plain exceptions for personal or classified matters. They can release training records that show staff know the rules. None of that slows real work. It speeds consent. When leaders stop gaming the medium, the message gets cleaner. Sunlight will not fix past choices, but it will prevent repeat offenses.
