Paul Has One of Fauci’s Attorneys Removed From Hearing Room
Paul ordered the lawyer out after Fauci refused questions 10 times and invoked the Fifth Amendment, escalating the committee dispute.
- Sen. Rand Paul ordered security to remove an attorney for Director Anthony Fauci from a hearing Wednesday after the lawyer repeatedly attempted to speak without recognition by the committee.
- Paul claimed a private pandemic-era diary contained evidence that Fauci made public health decisions contradicting his private knowledge, prompting the hearing to examine these discrepancies.
- Before removal, the lawyer sat at Fauci's table after being directed not to, and Paul warned he was not recognized more than ten times before calling security.
- Citing his Fifth Amendment right, the 85-year-old Fauci repeatedly refused to answer questions while his lawyers remained in the room to provide advice during the proceeding.
- Paul warned there will be repercussions for the refusal to testify, noting it is against the law to obstruct a Congressional investigation into pandemic-era decisions.
