The Senate Committee on National Security and Governmental Affairs approved a resolution to declare the doctor Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress for refusing to answer senators' questions last week. Democrats fought to block this initiative, but in the end, the vote followed party lines and ended 8 to 5.
In a hearing that went viral and exposed Fauci's crimes during the COVID pandemic, the former Biden health official invoked his Fifth Amendment right over 100 times while Republican senators questioned him about his numerous lies over the years.
The Democratic doctor even refused to answer basic questions posed by Missouri Senator Josh Hawley, such as what day of the week it was, what color his tie was, and what color the carpet was.
The new legal landscape for Fauci is as follows: since the resolution has already been approved by the members of the Governmental Affairs Committee, the Senate will send the criminal complaint to the Department of Justice and ask it to proceed with the formal charges against the Democratic doctor.
