Senatul SUA a votat pentru punerea sub acuzare a lui Anthony Fauci pentru sfidarea Congresului după ce a refuzat să răspundă la întrebări despre pandemia de COVID-19

A U.S. Senate committee has voted to hold Anthony Fauci in contempt for not answering questions about COVID-19 management. Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment during his testimony, claiming he was being pressured to incriminate himself. Senator Rand Paul argues that Fauci can no longer claim this protection due to a preemptive pardon from President Biden. The contempt charge requires a full Senate vote, needing bipartisan support, but Paul may bypass this by sending the charge directly to the Justice Department. Fauci has faced criticism from conservatives for his pandemic response measures.
