Fauci’s Wife Responds With Profane Message After Husband Faces Contempt Vote

The committee voted 8 to 7 along party lines after Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment 111 times during questioning.

  • On Thursday, a Senate committee led by Sen. Rand Paul voted 8 to 7 to hold Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress, alleging he obstructed oversight by refusing to answer questions during a recent hearing.
  • Fauci, the former head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases , invoked his Fifth Amendment rights 111 times, stating his legal counsel advised that answers to GOP questioning could be twisted for weaponized prosecution.
  • Paul accused Fauci of funding Chinese research that may have created the virus, a claim lacking evidence, while Fauci accused Paul of having an "unhinged obsession" with him during testimony.
  • Hours after the vote, Fauci's wife and Georgetown University colleague Christine Grady was photographed outside their Washington home, where she flipped off the camera before driving away.
  • The committee's vote will be submitted directly to the Justice Department for potential prosecution, bypassing a full Senate vote, as the contempt effort passed strictly along party lines.
