If you have been sickened about #BeagleGate and the cruel and wasteful experiments on dogs funded by Dr. Anthony Fauci’s agency, the National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases, you are not alone. People across the political spectrum have been horrified to learn that their tax dollars are being used to subsidize animal cruelty.

Details of NIAID’s puppy tests uncovered by the White Coat Waste Project are disturbing. Fauci’s division spent $1.68 million in taxpayer funds on experiments involving 44 beagle puppies as young as 6 months old. The puppies were force-fed experimental drugs before being killed and dissected. NIAID has admitted that the puppies’ vocal cords were barbarically cut in order to prevent them from barking in the lab.
