In just under 24 hours (13 May 2026, 10:00AM Eastern), according to Senator Rand Paul, the Senate Homeland Security and Government Affairs committee will hear testimony from a whistleblower with something to say about COVID.
Who will the whistleblower be?
Multiple options can resolve to yes (e.g. categories of individuals and the specific individual belonging to a category). Anyone can add a new answer.
The "insider" questions resolving yes does not require direct employment by the agency in question. Anyone having or claiming to have insider information relating primarily to one agency will qualify. Since this might require a judgement call as to what a whistleblower's primary subject is, I will not participate in the market.
Rand Paul has dropped what might be some hints on his personal and official X accounts and may have shared some relevant information elsewhere. Take a look yourself, but here are a couple comments from the last week that jumped out to me as potentially relevant:
Many comments regarding the statute of limitations expiring to bring charges against Anthony Fauci related to May 2021 testimony. For example, "Fauci dismissed the lab leak theory on every major network while his NIH was actively funding gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Scientists who agreed with us were silenced. Careers were destroyed. The COVID cover-up ran straight through our own public health bureaucracy. Today is the final day for the DOJ to charge Fauci."
"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."
"COVID cover-up didn’t begin in 2020. And it didn’t end there either."
"The COVID cover-up goes all the way to the top. Fauci funded the Wuhan lab. Senior intelligence officials hid classified evidence from the president himself. Scientists were silenced. Millions paid the price."
