Fauci invokes Fifth at Senate hearing, Rand Paul threatens contempt
Rand Paul, a man deemed unscrupulous and appalling by people who sift through celebrities’ garbage cans to opportunistically cash in on their most personal secrets.
Cassiopeia🇵🇹🇩🇪21I’m so sick of the Monday Morning Quarterbacking on Fauci’s work. There was a lot we didn’t know about COVID starting in Nov 2019 through July 2020. This is why Americans can’t have nice things. Short memories and even shorter attention spans.
MyRomanEmpire21Rand Paul needs another neighborly visit.
karenski1.bsky.social19Does America NOT understand that this was a worldwide event ? That it was a once in 100 year event ? That it was NOVEL coronavirus so Science started at 0?
hummingbirdhill.bsky.social17Disagree with him that Covid was not handled maliciously, but not by Fauci, by Trump.
razzledazzil.bsky.social13Harvey is an attorney. He may not be the best guy in the world but he does know the law. Letting them throw Fauci’s lawyer out is sketchy as hell. He’s right that this is a dark time
gandalfintheabyss.bsky.social11We are in strange times when TMZ is the moral compass.
To be clear, American hero Dr. Fauci pled the fifth in order to protect himself from republicans using anything he says to produce propaganda against him, unlike the orange felon who pled the fifth 450 times because he’s guilty AF, but they were more than okay with that. Scumbags.
andigetupagain3.bsky.social3My take on Fauci is he runs circles around anyone in the Trumpy Dumpy regime. His failure was to not extract himself when he could have. He liked the limelight. Like most folks embedded/embroiled w Trump.
Tia3During the congressional investigations surrounding the January 6 attack, five House Republicans REFUSED to comply with OFFICIAL SUBPOENAS issued by the House January 6 Committee: Kevin McCarthy, Jim Jordan, Scott Perry, Andy Biggs, and Mo Brooks.
veggieman*2It’s all performative. They’ve got to rile up their base someway or another.
Rebel Della 🟧 💜💙2They want to erase all of his accomplishments.
Christy🌵🌻1It was an awful show of ignorance and incompetence and stupidity just listening to the way they all berated Dr Fauci made me want to 🤮
Chez Chatz1It takes all of the fun out of it when he wont play along
Josh Hawley just posted “no honest person pleads the Fifth” while dunking on Fauci. Meanwhile his party’s leader, tRump, did it 440 times. These guys really think we all forgot. The selective amnesia is wild. www.huffpost.com/entry/sen-jo...
karenski1.bsky.social2Josh hawley just do what you do best
Ferlin21No honest person pleads the 5th again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and ...440!
Hansine Ilse of the North Shore1Gggguuurrll only knows one thing … legging it ….🤷🏻♀️
Watching Dr. Fauci today, having to plead the Fifth, will remain one of the most heartbreaking things I have ever witnessed. And then hearing Sen. Moreno ask him, “Who the fuck do you think you are?” To me, it reflects a profound loss of respect, for both public service and the office he holds.
slindquist.bsky.social7Moreno is a stain on Ohio and those who voted for him. Plus, I’m glad he’s not my father; he can’t even defend his own daughter and call for her ex to resign. Party over family.
Inbtwnthedarkandthelight6The Senator was more out raged with Dr. Fauci than what he was with his daughters abuser.
DebbieLynn (she/her)4This Colombian immigrant car salesman is asking Dr Fauci who he thinks he is? 😂
Midnitestork.bsky.social 🇨🇦4These elected officials are a national embarrassment.
fatimap72.bsky.social2Does Moreno up for election in 2026?
ƬӨЯᄃΉIΛ2Absolutely insane. Moreno is a clown. I’d love to slap him across the face as hard as I possibly can.
Another opportunity to note that Ron Johnson was among the senators who went to Moscow for the 4th of July in 2018. One year earlier, John McCain stood on the Senate floor and said Rand Paul, leader of today's witch hunt, said “The senator from Kentucky is now working for Vladimir Putin." 🧅
quesera2u.bsky.social2Ron Johnson has the Audacity to question anyone after participating in Jan6. Moscow R Johnson is an empty vessel bowing down to Felon47.
anglospud.bsky.social1Bless my heart he's an idiot. As research shows COVID vaccine provides protection against heart attacks here's hoping these %"#@ refused them. Buh-bye bozo.
Senator Rand Paul had Dr Anthony Fauci's lawyer, David Schertler, removed from the 29 July Senate Covid-19 pandemic hearing after he repeatedly tried to interject during questioning
lindaisee.bsky.social2And you wonder that Dr. Fauci had to take the 5th out of protest against this insane revenge persecution of someone who helped save lives over decades of public health service? Rand Paul and Republicans showed their true colors today and they are repulsive.
Raffy2Was this waste of taxpayer $ just a diversion from the fact we lit a firestorm in the Middle East? We may have caused a global economic collapse… plus we have nearly depleted our munitions supply which might take years to replenish. Let’s bash the Dr who spent his life helping others. Vote them out!
Liberty and Justice For All2Rand Paul has always been 99% despicable. Now he's trying to get back in the good graces of his dear leader from the few times he went against him.
