Paul to push Fauci contempt vote in Thursday showdown
TL;DR Summary
Sen. Rand Paul plans a Thursday vote on a contempt-of-Congress resolution against Dr. Anthony Fauci after Fauci refused to answer questions at a hearing, accusing him of obstructing the pandemic investigation; Fauci denies entrapment and cites Paul’s lab-origin allegations. Republicans are expected to approve the contempt resolution and refer it to the Justice Department for possible prosecution, while Biden’s prior preemptive pardon for Fauci adds legal uncertainty about potential charges.
