Fauci might be done for. He may finally be held accountable for what he’s done.
And Dr. Fauci could be in massive trouble thanks to this Republican senator.
Sen. Rand Paul is firing back at the last-minute maneuvers of the former Biden administration, zeroing in on the controversial preemptive pardon handed to Anthony Fauci.
The Kentucky Republican appeared on Fox News Channel’s “Sunday Morning Futures” to declare that this move cannot stand unchallenged, especially with fresh details emerging about Fauci’s role in risky gain-of-function research that could have played a part in the COVID pandemic rising up.
Host Maria Bartiromo pressed the senator directly on the matter:
“What about this pardon? What can be done now? Joe Biden gave him a preemptive pardon literally hours before the president, President Trump, took office. Do you believe that can be challenged? Is it legitimate? Was it done by an autopen?”
Paul responded with measured skepticism, insisting on proper legal review.
“You know, lawyers and people from the attorney general’s office will have to determine. I think it’s extraordinary. It’s a pardon that goes over 10 years and doesn’t have specific crimes,” the senator stated.
“The only other pardon like this in the history of the United States would be what Hunter Biden received. And there’s been a lot of questions about that. So, a 10-year pardon on non-specific crimes, I wonder whether or not that is the intention the Constitution had when they gave the pardon power.”
The senator made clear that talk alone falls short. Real action demands court challenges to test the pardon’s validity.
Americans deserve to know if such a sweeping grant of immunity aligns with the Founders’ vision or simply serves as a get-out-of-jail-free card for insiders
Paul went further, raising pointed doubts about Biden’s personal involvement. He questioned whether the former president even grasped the full scope of Fauci’s situation or if staffers pushed through the paperwork without proper oversight.
This uncertainty fuels legitimate concerns about who truly held power in the final days of the Biden era.
“But it has to be challenged. Me saying it’s not enough. You would have to actually go to court and challenge the validity of it. There also is some question, did President Biden — was he aware of who Anthony Fauci was? Did he specifically understand the details of the case and grant Anthony Fauci a pardon? Or did a low-level assistant with an autopen do this without consultation with the president? I don’t know all the facts on that, but I think it’s worth coming out,” Paul said.
“He should be asked about the pardon. If he comes, if he obeys the law and the subpoena, if he comes to my committee, we will ask him about the pardon.”
For too long, the American people have watched powerful bureaucrats evade scrutiny while ordinary citizens suffered through lockdowns, lost jobs, and forced medical decisions.
Fauci’s alleged push for dangerous lab experiments stands at the center of debates over the pandemic’s true origins.
Paul’s push for answers represents a stand against the unaccountable administrative state that has grown far too comfortable shielding its own.
