politics @lemmy.world•Anthony Fauci invokes 5th Amendment right not to testify at Covid hearing, calls Sen. Rand Paul ‘unhinged’
20·3 months agoAlright let’s check that first link because that pretty interesting to hear he has a history of being bad. The source is the daily economy? Never heard of it but maybe they’re a reliable source I’m not familiar with.
Let’s look at Wikipedia to see if they’re a trusted source… And they aren’t even listed… Ok I’ll proceed to assume this guy that’s been working on the government for 40 years, working across both D and R admins, who’s work had been some of the most cited in viral infections in the 2000s isn’t actually shit.
I understand that this is BS questioning, but I’m still surprised that Fauci pleaded the 5th. I feel this isn’t the first time we’ve had BS investigations(or investigations into completely valid crimes) by Congress, but I’m uncertain of other times people pleaded the 5th (vs deflecting questions or speaking the truth about the line of questioning).
Am I wrong about that? It’s there a reason Fauci decided on the 5th rather than shutting down they’re BS?
