Dr. Anthony Fauci has been held in contempt by a Senate Committee led by Senator Rand Paul (R-KY). Senator Paul is also personally filing papers recommending the DOJ file criminal charges against the doctor. Paul stated, “We will hand deliver it today to the attorney general and we will hand deliver it today to the District of Columbia, to the U.S. attorney there, and from there, we’ll find out. But this way we don’t sit a month waiting to determine whether to bring it to the Senate floor.”
Sen. Paul Says He Will Refer the Committee-Approved Resolution to the DOJ – C-SPAN

EXCERPT:
Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), the chair of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Government Affairs, says he will directly refer the committee-approved resolution to hold Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt to the Department of Justice, but he has not ruled out bringing it before the full Senate. This unusual move to send the referral directly to the Justice Department without it first going before the Senate could undercut prosecutors’ ability to bring charges against Dr. Fauci and would likely start a court battle over the limits of witnesses’ Fifth Amendment rights. “We will hand deliver it today to the attorney general and we will hand deliver it today to the District of Columbia, to the U.S. attorney there, and from there, we’ll find out. But this way we don’t sit a month waiting to determine whether to bring it to the Senate floor,” he says
