“Sen. Rand Paul says Anthony Fauci can expect consequences for the former Covid czar’s decision to exercise his Fifth Amendment rights against self-incrimination to avoid testifying before Paul’s Senate committee on Wednesday,” Politico reports.
Said Paul: “It’s against the law to obstruct an investigation of Congress. There will be repercussions for your refusal to testify.”
Threatening “repercussions” for invoking the Fifth also helps explain why Fauci believed he needed to do it.
