Fauci Held in Contempt by Senate | Burlington News

Published 1 day, 7 hours ago
Description

A Senate committee just voted to hold Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt after he repeatedly invoked his Fifth Amendment during a pandemic hearing, refusing to answer questions about his role. Now referred to the Justice Department for possible prosecution, Fauci claims he feared criminal charges and that a senator was trying to force him into incriminating statements. His past pardon doesn’t cover state-level charges or false testimony. The Justice Department will now decide whether to pursue action — bypassing a likely failed Senate vote.
