Fauci's rise and legal risks
A Senate committee has voted to hold Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt for refusing to answer questions about his COVID-19 actions, citing his use of the Fifth Amendment. The controversy centers on whether Fauci, who received an unconditional presidential pardon, is ineligible to invoke Fifth Amendment protections, as led by Senate Republicans claiming the pardon grants him immunity. Legal experts disagree on whether the pardon negates his right to remain silent, and potential legal actions include federal prosecutors seeking an indictment for contempt, with the case ultimately likely to be decided by a court.
