Kash Patel Reveals FBI Has Found Fauci’s Phones and Devices Used During COVID, Now Analyzing Hard Drives for Evidence
In a bombshell revelation made during his appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience, FBI Director Kash Patel confirmed that the bureau has secured the phones and devices used by Dr. Anthony Fauci during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic. Patel stated that investigators are now scrutinizing the hard drives tied to Fauci’s communications for evidence of misconduct or cover-ups.
The devices reportedly date back to Fauci’s time as the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) during the first Trump administration, when sweeping COVID mandates were issued, and questions about the virus’s origins began to emerge.
Long-Sought Breakthrough
Patel described the find as a major breakthrough in the ongoing investigation into COVID-19 origins, federal deception, and public health policy manipulation.
“We just had a great breakthrough this week on Fauci… They had always been looking for Fauci’s phones and devices… and nobody had found it until two days ago,” Patel said.
He cautioned the public not to jump to conclusions yet, as the contents of the devices are still being examined. However, he emphasized the significance of finally gaining access to what could be a crucial piece of evidence.
“We owe those answers to the American people,” he added. “And the best evidence ever is always the people’s evidence who created it.”
Fauci’s Credibility in Question
Dr. Fauci’s credibility has come under intense scrutiny in recent years. He admitted in 2023 testimony before the House Coronavirus Subcommittee that key COVID guidelines, such as social distancing and child masking, were not grounded in solid scientific research. Additionally, emails and documents have since surfaced contradicting Fauci’s prior sworn statements that the NIH did not fund gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
Fauci’s agency, NIAID, has also been accused of suppressing early treatments like hydroxychloroquine and pushing vaccine narratives that later proved flawed.
“Fauci lied, people died,” critics have said—now echoed by those hoping that his devices might finally provide clarity about what he knew and when.
Protected by a Controversial Pardon
Adding fuel to the fire, Fauci was reportedly granted a preemptive autopen pardon by President Biden on his final day in office—sparking outrage from those demanding accountability. Fauci publicly thanked the administration, saying he was “very appreciative.”
A Broader Mission
Patel highlighted that the effort to retrieve and examine Fauci’s devices is part of a larger mission by the FBI under new leadership to restore transparency and public trust. He cited ongoing efforts into COVID origins, Russiagate, and the Richmond Catholic memo as other key fronts in exposing politically motivated misinformation and abuse of power.
“This is a victory for the American people,” Patel said. “We’re not done, we’re still looking, and we’re on the case.”
The next steps will likely involve digital forensics, potential congressional hearings, and a public reckoning over the federal government’s COVID response. And if the hard drives confirm what many suspect—that Fauci knowingly misled the nation—it could mark one of the most significant scandals in modern American history.
