Ancheta COVID-19 ia o nouă turnură. Anthony Fauci, găsit vinovat de sfidarea Congresului

The investigation into COVID-19 management in the U.S. intensifies as Anthony Fauci is found guilty of contempt by a Senate committee. This follows his refusal to answer Congress's questions about pandemic handling. The decision, initiated by Senator Rand Paul, highlights Fauci's repeated invocation of the Fifth Amendment during hearings. Fauci, who retired in 2022, was a key figure in pandemic response measures. Although granted preemptive clemency by Biden in 2025, this does not shield him from state-level investigations. The contempt charge requires Senate approval, which may be unlikely due to Democratic support needs.
