The freak Fauci has decided to take the Fifth and not answer questions before Congress today. The response on X is absolutely frenzied.
BREAKING: Dr. Fauci pleads the 5th amendment during his opening statement & says he will decline to answer questions before Congress today!

He's a coward. American already knew that.
I called it yesterday on the podcast that he would evoke the fifth.

Some were oracles.
Wow: Fauci takes the Fifth, and refuses to answer any questions at this morning's committee hearing.

...Fauci's calculus is that his allies in the media will cover and excuse his invocation while he avoids having to address the contradictions from his own diary with what he has previously said.

He's probably right.
It's too bad this hearing isn't happening at 8:30 pm so we could take shots every time Fauci takes the 5th.

That really is a shame.
It’s Fauci’s right to take the 5th but it doesn’t look good to sit there and refuse to answer whether there’s even a folder in front him. Sen Paul asks one incriminating answer after another, while Fauci takes the 5th so Sen Paul warns Fauci further action will be sought since… pic.twitter.com/FLSjvyGaBY

For a guy who used to really care about what the public thought of him, he apparently has decided looking like a fool is the new hotness.

Fauci, much like the rest of the clowns, feels he is above you and me. He’s basically saying let them eat cake. Well let’s get to baking folks…. pic.twitter.com/S1WQZj99a6

He has the right, but it still is wrong.

Watch how many times Fauci takes the Fifth today.
— SULLY (@SULLY10X) July 29, 2026
Each one is a public admission that the truth is worse than the Fifth. https://t.co/5XLnXBG6vP
That's the correct view of his testimony today.
Dr. Fauci is making liberal use of the 5th.
— Macabre Hammer (@HammerMacabre) July 29, 2026
It's his right.
It also looks very bad.
They aren't asking any "Have you stopped beating your wife?" style questions.
A strictly freaking science question was just asked!
And he takes the 5th.
It's his right.
It's also very disappointing to people who deserve answers.
BREAKING: FAUCI TAKES THE FIFTH.

No accountability. No honesty.
Dr. Fauci is a disgrace.
And always has been.
