House Oversight Committee chairman James Comer (R-KY) recently revealed bombshell findings that millions of taxpayer dollars had been spent toward transgender surgeries and treatment on animals under the leadership of Dr. Anthony Fauci. The report comes as the Trump administration seeks to cut wasteful spending within the federal government.
According to reports, the committee found that over $240 million of taxpayer funds was spent on studying transgender surgeries and other procedures on animals. Furthermore, it is reported that Fauci, the former head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, approved much of this research.
The taxpayer watchdog, White Coast Waste Project (WCW), has led extensive investigation into the bizarre government research, shedding light on the nature of the experimentation. Senior Vice President of Advocacy and Public Policy at White Coat Waste Project Justin Goodman recently testified about the $241 million that was spent on such projects.
Goodman stated, “In a lot of these cases — they involve mice, rats, monkeys, who are being surgically mutilated and subjected to hormone therapies to mimic female to male or male to female gender transitions, gender-affirming hormone therapies, and then looking at the biological, psychological and physiological effects of the gender transitions, looking at the effects of taking vaccines after you’ve transitioned these animals from male to female or female to male, looking at the size of their genitals changing after you’ve put them on estrogen or testosterone therapies to transition them.”
Furthermore, Goodman claimed that over $1 million was specifically given to research the effects of giving “female lab rats testosterone to mimic transgender male humans and then overdose them with this party drug to see if animals who are taking test — female animals taking testosterone.” He explained they “were more likely to overdose on the sex party drug than animals who are not taking testosterone.”
The prominent X news account, Leading Report, covered the news, writing, “BREAKING: House Oversight Committee has uncovered that $241 million in taxpayer funds were used to study transgender surgeries and treatments on animals, with Fauci authorizing 95% of these experiments, according to Rep. Eli Crane.” Rep. Crane replied, “Insane, right?”
Goodman also highlighted the troubling lack of oversight within the federal government. “Mister Goodman, are many of these taxpayer funded animal studies shared with the public, or is there a significant oversight of this research?” Crane inquired. Goodman answered, “You essentially needed a degree in Information Technology to navigate the federal spending databases to find any of this stuff.”

Crane then asked, “So what you found is we’re not being very transparent with what we’re spending these funds on.” Goodman said, “Not at all. And it’s by design.” Crane questioned, “Did you say that Dr Fauci, in your estimation, had funded close to 95% of these animal research projects.” The WCW leader noted, “Yeah, in our analysis, Dr Fauci funded about 95% of the transgender animal experiments.”
