By Washington Examiner Staff | Washington Examiner

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) teased that a CIA whistleblower will testify at a Senate Homeland Security Committee hearing on Wednesday and will provide intricate details of an alleged “deep state” cover-up regarding the origins of COVID-19 and other information related to the pandemic. 

Paul announced the whistleblower’s testimony in multiple social media posts and a press release issued on Monday. 

The DOJ may never act, but the American people know the truth: Fauci misled and defrauded this country. I won't stop uncovering the truth around the great COVID cover-up. That's why I will have a whistleblower testify before my committee this Wednesday. https://t.co/z5zxHIrx2M

“Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee Chairman Rand Paul (R-KY) will convene a full committee hearing to receive testimony from a whistleblower who will expose the coverup over the origins of COVID-19 and the lack of transparency from government agencies,” the release read. 

The whistleblower’s identity was not revealed ahead of the hearing. However, he is supposedly a CIA veteran with over 20 years of service who worked in the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the New York Post reported. He reportedly was on a detail for a “director’s initiative group,” which analyzed and assessed the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic. He is expected to claim the CIA restricted available information to the public about the virus, according to reports.
