Rand Paul issues subpoena for Anthony Fauci
Paul says Fauci must answer questions on COVID-19 origins, gain-of-function research and a pardon after months of negotiations.
- Senate Homeland Security Chairman Rand Paul subpoenaed Dr. Anthony Fauci on Monday afternoon, forcing the former top immunologist to appear before his committee.
- The subpoena marks Paul's first since taking over as committee chairman, escalating a years-long feud after Fauci reportedly agreed to testify this month but then backed out.
- Paul stated he reached a breaking point over months of delays, telling reporters that Fauci has been "slow-walking information to us for six months or more" and that it is finally "time that we bring him in."
- The July hearing will target several highly contentious areas, with the committee set to grill Fauci on his controversial late-2024 presidential pardon, allegations of record destruction, and the funding of gain-of-function research.
- The legal mandate sets up a high-stakes constitutional showdown, as Paul expressed full confidence that the action will withstand any legal challenges by relying on the courtroom precedents established by the January 6th committee's subpoenas.
