Just in case you can’t read the full text up there:
JUST IN: Rand Paul has referred Dr. Fauci to top D.C. prosecutor for criminal charges for lying under oath about COVID origins. Prosecute / Fauci. The move by Paul comes just weeks after he submitted a criminal referral for Fauci with the DOJ. If convicted, Fauci could face up to five years in prison. “Dr. Fauci testified that ‘the NIH has not ever and does not now fund gain-of function research in the Wuhan Institute of Virology.’ In a subsequent hearing, I warned Dr. Fauci of the criminal implications of lying to Congress and offered him an opportunity to recant his previous statements,” Paul said. “In response, Dr. Fauci stated that he had ‘never lied before the Congress’ and ‘d[id] not retract that statement.’ Dr. Fauci’s testimony is inconsistent with facts that have since come to light.” At least one politician is doing something.
And you may have missed Mock’s post from yesterday, which detailed some of the haps leading up to Paul referring him to the prosecutor. It’s been a long time coming, and it’s nice to see that at least ONE DUDE ON OUR SIDE HAS A SET OF BALLS.
A hearty Chick saaaalute to you, Rand Paul. Now let’s see where this goes, if anywhere.
