Today, a Senate committee led by Rand Paul (R-KY) will vote to send a contempt charge to the full Senate over Fauci’s refusal to testify while immunized last week. That could lead to criminal prosecution by a Department of Justice that’s likely enthused by the prospect. Fauci’s diaries on government servers would get even more attention in a high-profile trial, laying out Fauci’s lies during the pandemic as well as his infatuation with celebrity, his own and others’.
That may not be the last reveal into Fauci’s character, either. The Wall Street Journal reported late last night that another Senate committee now has a copy of Fauci’s iPhone, used during his management of the pandemic. What secrets might that hold?
