EXCLUSIVE: The Beast has learned an anonymous RedState writer who has spent months trashing U.S. health officials combating the coronavirus works for the agency that Dr. Anthony Fauci runs https://trib.al/z4mxqA5 
Through our research, we determined that the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases public affairs specialist William Crews, is behind a series of shocking posts in which he called Fauci a “mask Nazi” and the COVID response a “fraud.” https://trib.al/JsoGz2l 
Crews claims the fight against COVID-19 is part of an anti-Trump conspiracy and intimated that those waging it should be executed:

In other words, a civil servant paid to promote sound science is undercutting measures to contain the pandemic. He’s contributing to the disinformation campaign that his superiors at the NIH say is hampering the government’s ability to control the virus. https://trib.al/JsoGz2l 
Crews declined an interview with The Beast and did not respond to a written list of questions. The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, where he works, also did not respond.
