Biden Chief of Staff Jeff Zients Who Also Served as Biden’s COVID Response Coordinator Pardoned Dr. Tony Fauci with an Autopen

Jeff Zients, former Chief of Staff for Joe Biden and former COVID Response Coordinator before that.

Jeff Zients is a former Obama and Biden official who served as the Chief of Staff for Joe Biden.

In December 2020, Zients was named as the presumptive coordinator of the COVID-19 response team and counselor to the president.

Jeff Zients was later promoted to Joe Biden’s Chief of Staff from February 2023 until the end of his failed presidency in January 2025 when Joe Biden left office.

In May 2021, Jeff Zients was pushing for COVID boosters ahead of the Biden FDA approval for the shots.

Then FOX News host Chris Wallace roasted the Biden administration for pushing the dangerous COVID boosters early as the Biden team insisted “we will listen to the scientists and we are not going to get ahead of the science.”

Now, according to emails leaked to The New York Times, we discover that Biden Chief of Staff and former coordinator of the COVID-19 response team, Jeff Zients, was a key official in the pardon of Dr. Tony Fauci!

Zients approved of the use of the autopen to pardon Dr. Fauci and others.

From the NYT article:

“At the Jan. 19 meeting, which took place in the Yellow Oval Room of the White House residence, Mr. Biden kept his aides until nearly 10 p.m. to talk through such decisions, according to people familiar with the matter.”

“The emails show that an aide to Mr. Siskel sent a draft summary of Mr. Biden’s decisions at that meeting to an assistant to Mr. Zients, copying Mr. Siskel, at 10:03 p.m. The assistant forwarded it to Mr. Reed and Mr. Zients, asking for their approval, and then sent a final version to Ms. Feldman — copying many meeting participants and aides — at 10:28 p.m.”

“Three minutes later, Mr. Zients hit ‘reply all’ and wrote, ‘I approve the use of the autopen for the execution of all of the following pardons.’”

The same guy who made millions off of the government healthcare policies pardoned Dr. Tony Fauci. What a surprise!

So Fauci was pardoned by the White House Covid-19 coordinator, who made tens of millions of dollars off financial bets exploiting federal government healthcare policies. https://t.co/UJdJ0vbuHm pic.twitter.com/Fp61yt7ex5
