But the hearing quickly became a letdown for Paul and Republicans on Wednesday. The former NIAID head repeatedly took the Fifth Amendment and refused to answer questions from both Republicans and Democrats.
While Joe Biden issued a preemptive pardon to Fauci at the end of his presidency, citing concerns about “unjustified and politically motivated prosecutions” by the incoming Trump administration, that pardon would not shield Fauci from any alleged crimes committed after it was issued — including perjury before Congress.
How did RFK Jr get them? Wtf?
Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. said during an appearance on Fox News that he gave the entries to Paul and his Republican colleague Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin in the lead up to the hearing.
Fauci probably used a work laptop and these were recovered from it.
Ya think? I would like an official statement about how they got them.
I assume he used Hunter Biden’s laptop.
I assume by diary they mean his personal notes. Those might have been preserved. Usually government laptops are wiped and reissued or given away to some random school.
“Given Sen. Paul’s obvious obsession with calling for my prosecution, his repeated slanderous comments about me, and recently his publicly releasing my unredacted personal diary aimed at embarrassing and intimidating me, the only conclusion I can reach is that the sole reason he is calling me before this committee is to get me to say something that could vindicate his repeated public pledges that I end up, in his words, ‘behind bars,’” Fauci said Wednesday. “Any reasonable person who has followed his unhinged obsession with me would readily come to the same conclusion.”
Poor man Fauci. Stop harassing the guy trying to keep the country alive.
Fauci is no stranger to this. He had to deal with that bigoted but Reagan too.
Rand Paul is a pissy cunt and should be tar and feathered
