FAUCI IN THE NEWS, ASSORTED SOURCES, GOOGLE AI AS WELL

Dr. Anthony Fauci just refused a private transcribed interview with Sen. Ron Johnson's subcommittee. The same week, a former ABC News correspondent revealed that the network gutted a 2021 Wuhan lab leak investigation after the script was sent to Fauci for review.......

This was not a conservative activist speaking. Moran is a longtime network journalist. His account directly undercuts years of media insistence that questions about the lab were fringe conspiracy theories while Fauci and allies worked to shut them down.

These latest refusals and revelations sit atop a mountain of prior evidence already documented.

Secret texts recovered from Fauci's government iPhone showed him privately warning in January 2021 that the second COVID vaccine dose "theoretically could be associated with miscarriage in the 1st trimester" because of cytokine storms and fever. Publicly, he and other officials pushed the shots for pregnant women with no such caveats.https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/fauci-hiding-abc-censorship-bombshell-explodes

Context of the Broader Investigation
This standoff follows a highly contentious period between Dr. Fauci and Republican-led Senate panels investigating the pandemic response: [1, 2]The July 29 Hearing: Dr. Fauci previously appeared under a compelled subpoena before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. During that hearing, he asserted his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination more than 100 times, declining to answer questions regarding COVID-19 origins and policies on the advice of his counsel. [1, 2, 3]

Contempt of Congress: Because of his refusal to answer questions during the July 29 hearing, a Republican-led Senate panel voted to advance a measure holding Dr. Fauci in contempt of Congress. Sen. Rand Paul has also officially recommended that the Justice Department pursue criminal contempt charges. [1, 2, 3]

The Phone Records: Sen. Johnson stated that his committee has separately obtained a copy of Dr. Fauci's phone from the Trump administration to review millions of pages of records as part of their ongoing probe. [1, 2]

FAUCI IN THE NEWS--REFUSED SENATE APPEARANCE INVOKING FIFTH AMENDMENT MORE THAN 100 TIMES IN COVID PROBE

 

Dr. Anthony Fauci on Friday declined a request to voluntarily appear before a second Senate panel, opening another front in Republicans’ investigations into the former public health official’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.An attorney for Fauci rejected the request from Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., chairman of the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, arguing that compelling Fauci to testify again after his contentious July 29 Senate hearing would “impermissibly harass or degrade Dr. Fauci for political purposes.” MORE AT Fauci refuses Senate appearance after invoking Fifth Amendment more than 100 times in COVID probe

ETHAN CURRERI --I ARRESTED LAKEN RIKEY'S KILLER IN NYC 8 MONTHS BEFORE HER MURDER--SANCTUARY CITIES FAILED HER AND ALL AMERICANS

Ethan Curreri is a former New York City police office who arrested Laken Riley’s killer for a lesser crime six months before the illegal migrant was released — thanks to New York’s sanctuary policies — and moved to Georgia. Curreri was invited by President Trump to speak at the Angel Family event at the White House in February 2025, where the families of victims of criminal migrants gathered. Curreri is now a an officer with the Juno Beach Police Department in Florida.

I began my law enforcement career with the NYPD assigned to the 113th Precinct in South Jamaica, Queens.

I’ve walked into many difficult scenes as a police officer, but nothing compares to standing in a room full of broken hearts at the White House. MORE AT Sanctuary Cities Failed Laken Riley – and all Americans

FRIDAY'S TPS RULING

President Donald Trump scored a major legal victory Friday after a federal judge cleared the way for his administration to terminate temporary legal protections for thousands of Somali nationals living in the United States.

U.S. District Judge Allison Burroughs in Boston lifted a stay that had prevented the Department of Homeland Security from terminating Somalia's Temporary Protected Status (TPS) designation, citing a June Supreme Court ruling that sharply limited judicial review of similar administration actions.  MORE AT Trump scores major immigration victory as judge clears way to end TPS protections for thousands of Somalis
