Dr. Fauci got called to a Senate committee that Rand Paul put together to question him on COVID-19 after publishing his personal diary. The Republicans tried to do anything to make Dr. Fauci look bad and publicly insulted him over and over to his face. It was all an attempt to get him to say something they could construe as perjury. So, because he’s not some idiot, he invoked his Fifth Amendment rights over and over. Now, the Republicans want to hold him in contempt for…using his constitutionally protected rights. The same constitution, by the way, they swear to support and defend.
Rand Paul yelling “Who the fuck do you think you are?!!” In a congressional hearing should embarrass all Americans, but we’re well past that point, I guess.

I’ve been embarrassed since he turned our politics into reality tv.
