Rand Paul voted to hold Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress and refer him to the Justice Department for potential prosecution. The decision stems from Fauci's refusal to answer questions at a hearing last week regarding his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic. Fauci invoked his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination over 100 times during his appearance before the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs. Paul argued that Fauci's Fifth Amendment protection was invalid due to a pardon from President Joe Biden, which he claimed removed the threat of prosecution. Democrats and Fauci maintained he had a well-founded fear of self-incrimination, citing Republican calls for his prosecution.
