A Senate committee votes to hold Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress. The move comes after the former White House COVID advisor invoked the Fifth Amendment and refused to answer lawmakers' questions last week after he was subpoenaed. The contempt vote did not go to the full Senate, but sent instead to the Department of Justice.
Chad Pergram 2:20
Box is Chad Pergram. Anytime you have contempt of Congress, it usually bubbles up from the committee level and then it goes to the floor, and you have to have the entire body, be it the House or Senate, approve contempt of Congress and then make the referral to the Department of Justice.

Why did a Senate committee vote to hold Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress?

Chad Pergram 2:33
That is not what Rand Paul is doing here. This vote was a party line vote in the committee, eight to seven, all Republicans for contempt, all Democrats against. And Rand Paul is going to do this unilaterally and just send this down to the city. the DOJ for possible prosecution. The reason is because if you put it on the floor in the Senate you need sixty votes to break a filibuster. If you get sixty votes you only need a simple majority to then uh have DOJ uh you know take this up and then it's up to DOJ whether or not they want to move or not.
