Senate Republicans are set to vote on holding Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress after he declined to answer lawmakers’ questions during a fiery hearing last week. Fauci, who has long been a target of the right since he served as a top health official during the Covid pandemic, repeatedly invoked the Fifth Amendment right during the hearing, explaining in his opening remarks that he believed Republicans would have tried to use his testimony to prosecute him.
Republican Senator Ron Johnson said "We've invited Dr. Fauci for a transcribed interview. OK, he doesn't want to do it in front of the American public. Come in front of our committee! We'll go through detail and detail. You say you have nothing to hide. Good, we'll do it behind closed doors."
