US Senate Committee Votes to Hold Fauci in Contempt Over Covid Hearing The US Senate committee's decision to hold former top health official Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress has sent shockwaves through Washington.
Beneath the surface, however, lies a complex game of politics and power. As the world grapples with the ongoing pandemic, the debate over its origins and Fauci's role in it has become increasingly polarized.
Fauci invoked his constitutional right against self incrimination more than 100 times during the hearing, effectively sidestepping the committee's attempts to scrutinize his actions and decisions during the pandemic.
