As Twitchy reported on Thursday, the Senate Homeland Security & Government Accountability Committee voted 8-5 to refer Dr. Anthony Fauci to the DOJ for criminal contempt of Congress. As you know, Fauci invoked his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination 111 times during last week's hearing, refusing even to answer questions about the tie he was wearing.
Fox News reports that three states are getting in on the action. Attorneys general from Florida, Louisiana, and West Virginia have subpoenaed Fauci. That's going to make his wife even more grouchy.
🚨 BOOM! Dr. Anthony Fauci was just slapped with SUMMONS from THREE STATES: Florida, West Virginia, and Louisiana

Red state Attorneys General are going ALL-OUT to possibly prosecute Fauci, going around the autopen pardon.

And I think Alabama is in the process.

I bet he doesn't show up for any one of them. And then nothing will be done to him, like usual.

That's a safe bet.
They've got victims of an engineered disease funded by lawlessness and arranged by conspiracy, and victims of medical experimentation on an unsuspecting population, the invention of which was similarly lawless. Every state attorney general has victims to represent.

President Joe Biden's blanket federal pardon of Fauci on his way out the door doesn't protect him from state charges.
Follow the evidence. Prosecute if warranted. 🇺🇸

If there’s evidence of wrongdoing, let the facts come out and let the law take its course. No one should be above the law🇺🇸

I’d be happy if they just bankrupted him.

Unfortunately, we have to agree. Fauci's a slippery eel. He won't appear for any of them and won't be held accountable.
