Dr Fauci held in contempt of Congress and could be PROSECUTED after refusing to answer any COVID questions under Fifth Amendment

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the former U.S. government's top infectious disease expert, was found in contempt of Congress by the House Senate Homeland and Governmental Affairs Committee after refusing to answer over 100 questions during a Senate hearing. This led to potential legal action by the Department of Justice. Republicans argue that Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment to avoid testifying, despite claims by Senator Rand Paul that Biden's pardon for Fauci might affect his constitutional protections. Democrats criticized the move as a 'witch hunt.' The controversy highlights ongoing tensions between public health experts and political figures regarding pandemic-related policies.
