I will have to politically flip with regards to my recent criticism of the Rs in Congress.
More comments later but Anthony Fauci blatantly lied about the origins of COVID to cover up their experiments which CREATED IT and accidentally let it escape from the lab in Wuhan.
Here are some previous threads on Fauci.
Again, Fauci lied about numerous items related to COVID, including the most important item. Where COVID came from. He came out with his lies to cover his tracks and the culpability of the scientific community. Then when all the evidence and studies made it crystal clear that it came from the Wuhan Lab, he refused to come clean and doubled down on his lies.
Fauci lied about a few other things (including the cloth masks early on that did NOT protect people) but he also did a great job helping push GOOD information to fight COVID, including encouraging people to get vaccinated.
His battle with the anti science, anti vaccine crowd was a sad example of what the anti vaccine crowd feels was a crime by Fauci.

Keep in mind that in 2020, before we learned these facts about Anthony Fauci, I was his biggest cheerleader:

Keep in mind too, that Rand Paul is actually a Libertarian at odds with most of the R supported, Donald Trump ruinous agenda(like the war in Iran and tariffs). He is a medical doctor and although this is personal for him and it is political, it's also very justified based on all the authentic facts.
And this experimenting with virus's that CREATED COVID, then allowing it to escape from the Wuhan Lab was ENTIRELY RESPONSIBLE for tens of trillions in damages to the world and millions of lives of people that did not need to die!!!
So this is much more than James Comey copying an image of numbers formed with sea shells on a beach and putting it on the internet and the Rs/Trump persecuting him for that.
It's actually in a complete, justified class of its own as opposed to Trump's weaponizing the criminal justice system to seek vengeance on his enemies and the Rs being part of it.
Let's make no mistake about this. Anthony Fauci knew from the get go that they created this virus in the Wuhan lab and they (accidentally) let it escape and this was 100% responsible for this horrible global epidemic.
Instead of telling the truth, he and his scientific partners in crime manufactured a huge lie about how it came from nature and focused all their resources on pushing the lie to cover up WHAT THEY DID!!!
Accidents happen, right? If he/they had just fessed up, it wouldn't have changed the course that COVID took, once it escaped. However, knowing the truth is a key to understanding it and AVOIDING A REPEAT. Using this accident as profound evidence to BAN future experiments like this.
The huge cover up was as intentional of a crime as it gets.
You might remember that Nixon didn't resign over the initial act, which started with the Rs breaking into and bugging/wiretapping the DNC headquarters which many think he didn't even know about.
He resigned because after he found out, he played a key role in trying to COVER UP THE CRIME!
Fauci not only played a role in the initial, risky experimenting with dangerous virus's which was not a crime because it was legally authorized and funded.
His crime was playing such a huge role in the covering up of their accident.
Pleading the 5th had to be excruciatingly painful for Fauci.
He has testified before Congress over 100 times and is one of the best, convincing communicators on the planet........even when he blatantly lied about the origin of COVID.
He almost always makes those questioning him look bad and him look good.
Not testifying, allowed his attackers to just provided 1 sided, convincing sounding attacks and information without any rebuttal and him refusing to respond because his response might incriminate him.
It made the Rs look justified and Fauci look extremely bad and this was an intentional strategy, apparently from the advice of his attorney to protect him.
When Biden pardoned Fauci it was only for offenses thru January 2025. Rand Paul and the Rs wanted Fauci to tell some of his previous lies UNDER OATH in July 2026 so they could show the evidence of them being lies to charge him with perjury.
Even if 96% of what Fauci stated was the truth and made the Rs look bad, the other 4%(arbitrary %) that he lied about, even 1% would be lying under oath that they can show to be a lie and charge him with.
Based on what Fauci did and has said in the past there was no way for Fauci to tell the truth about everything unless he admitted to lying before under oath. The 5th amendment was his only choice. That just have been very tough for him.
But he didn't do it for anything else except protecting Anthony Fauci. If he REALLY wanted to help Americans and the world in July 2026, he would tell the truth about the lab leak and several other ethics violations that he either knew about or played a role in but again, that would require admitting that he lied for many years about them in the past.
Aside: I’m glad to see he’s still healthy and sounding looking for his age (~85.5)!
For sure, Larry!
Anthony Fauci is a freak of nature and looks younger than another freak, non aging brain Bernie Sanders.
Both of them are still near the top of their game an example that it isn't age that should disqualify candidates but HOW they age.
The images we get of Mitch McConnell make him LOOK great but age and the polio that he suffered as a youth have, unfortunately taken a toll on his body.
