Episode Details

Dr. Fauci’s legal maneuvering has ignited a firestorm: invoking the Fifth Amendment before a Senate committee, despite a presidential pardon covering federal crimes from 2014 to 2024. Republicans argue the pardon should erase any incriminating risk, but legal experts clarify that perjury remains a violation — and some say his opening remarks may have already waived his privilege.

Meanwhile, state prosecutors remain a wildcard — and Fauci insists he did nothing wrong, even as the constitutional lines blur in real time.
