Anthony Fauci invokes 5th Amendment right not to testify at Covid hearing, calls Sen. Rand Paul ‘unhinged’
Fauci said he invoked the Fifth on advice of counsel as lawmakers pressed him over COVID-19 origins and released more than 1,000 diary pages.
- The Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee will vote Wednesday on whether to hold former NIH Director Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress, escalating Republican scrutiny of the federal government's pandemic response.
- Fauci invoked his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination during a contentious Senate hearing last Wednesday, declining to answer questions about federal research funding and the government's pandemic response.
- Committee Chairman Sen. Rand Paul said, "I really did want to hear from Dr. Fauci," and plans to refer the matter to the Justice Department for possible prosecution if the committee approves the resolution.
- Republicans argue President Biden's federal pardon does not exempt Fauci from congressional questioning, while his legal team contends investigations are politically motivated as Louisiana, Florida, and Alabama pursue separate state-level inquiries.
- Former White House COVID-19 response coordinator Ashish Jha recently stated a lab leak is "more likely," emphasizing that evidence remains inconclusive and transparency from Chinese officials is needed.
