Rand Paul Urges Trump DOJ to Indict Fauci in Test of Autopen Pardons

KENTUCKY, UNITED STATES, JUL 23 – Senator Rand Paul renewed his criminal referral accusing Fauci of perjury amid controversy over Biden’s autopen-signed pardon, raising questions about presidential authority and legal accountability.

  • On Monday, Sen. Rand Paul announced he would reissue his criminal referral of Dr. Anthony Fauci to the Department of Justice under President Donald Trump, citing concerns over Fauci's potential perjury and the legitimacy of his autopen-issued pardon.
  • That pardon was executed via autopen, raising questions about direct presidential authorization, The New York Times reported.
  • Evidence indicates the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic released a February 2020 email, and Fauci acknowledged concerns about gain-of-function experiments in Wuhan, implying funding disputes and accountability issues.
  • In response, Paul said, `Perjury is a crime,` and called on the Department of Justice to investigate Fauci for lying to Congress.
  • Should the pardon be contested, its legitimacy may be questioned if Biden’s staff acted without direct authority, as The New York Times reported that Jeff Zients approved it.
