Unfortunately years ago, they all made their copies really small, so they could carry them in their pockets. They then proceeded to wipe their @sses with them and throw them out never to be seen again. Now we’re here.

EVERYONE IN THE REPUGNANT PARTY ARE PIECES OF SHIT EACH ONE TRYING TO FLOAT TO THE TOP OF THE CESSPOOL RAND PAUL IS ON TOP RIGHT NOW THE MOST DISGUSTING STINKING TURD IN THE CESSPOOL CONGRESS

FORBES: "HE SAID v. HE SAID" LEGAL COMMUNITY: "RAND PAUL AND THE KKKULT ARE SO FULL OF SHIT ON THIS WE CAN SEE THE TURDS IN THE BACK OF THEIR THROATS WHILE THEY SPEAK."

STOP ATTACKING …one of our premier scientists…Dr. Anthony Fauci! Dr. Fauci kept us safe for decades!! Look at the mess we are in without committed scientists and doctors like Dr. Fauci…

How do you even have a vote whether someone has the right to use their rights? I hope someone is keeping lists of the names of everyone who is walking their blood-soaked boots over the Constitution, in case whoever's in charge next has a backbone.

What the fock is wrong with Republicans? They try to prosecute a scientist who got us out of a pandemic, but won't prosecute a pedophile that raped children who is in the White House?

Yet again, MAGA republicans, those who deny vaccines and defend pedophiles, ignoring the original written constitution. Of course any action will be blocked in the first court, and Trump will accuse the judge of being a radical communist but move on to another scandal. Same, same.

Whiney a$$ Rand is just mad. Should these guys have been held in contempt? Aug 10 2022-trump plead the 5th 440 times in the fraud case in NY 2000-Rick Scott plead the 5th 75 times in his Medicare fraud case

I'm sure Rand Paul remembers all the Republicans who blew off subpoenas from the January 6, investigative committee. They are playing their usual games. And instead of Gym Jordan running a BS investigation, it's Rand Paul.

Honestly, I have NOTHING but contempt for this Congress. The Republican Party has made a mockery of the concept of "the rule of law". I'm not sure I would be able to maintain my composure before these buffoons the way Fauci has. He has my undying respect and thanks for his work.

The hypocrisy of the GOP is utterly disgusting. Dr. Fauci pleaded the 5th and is held in contempt but members of the orange idiot’s administration plead the 5th and get a free pass. Un f’in believable. Vote blue in November!

Rand Paul is such a cunt. He’s incompetent. He’s a liar. He’s not even a real dentist, ( as if that matters, but he does use that, as a little badge to try and prove he’s actually accomplished something if not publicly, but certainly within his fantasy world)

If it wasn’t all just political theater, and they truly thought he had more information, they would give immunity for his testimony. But that’s not why he was called. They’re bringing back an issue that animates their (un- or ill-informed) base because they’re losing on every other issue.

I expect those people to fall flat on their faces. Dr Fauci's reputation stands for his work on saving US All from Covid 2010-21. My family members died during 2020-2021 like many others in the USA. We need MORE people like Dr Fauci and LESS like Ron Paul, Donald Trump and madman RFK, jr.

The self-certified ophthalmologist Rand Paul certainly has a thing for Fauci despite not having ANY type of certification in Fauci's field. Fauci was correct in calling him out on it with his opening statement. But Fauci IS within his right to take the 5th. Certainly beats arguing with a moron!

Leave the fucking man alone. I really wish someone would just solve this problem so our country can move on or I wish for a piece of patriotic plaque to break off.

To what depths US has fallen. A globally respected medical professional who should be thanked for his service in times of unprecedented horror is being dragged through filth by a Committee led by a guy obsessed with punishing him just shows how unhinged the country has become.

Colossal waste of time "Senate Hearing." Rand Paul has always been a horse's ass — persecuting Anthony Fauci is far beyond reason. Rand Paul's obsessions are getting old.

Everyone acts as though he has never testified before Congress and addressed these questions previously. People! There are hours & hours of footage. Go 'do your own research' on C-SPAN. Rand Paul, Josh Hawley, and others = pure evil liars, and i hope the God's justice on them is swift.

🇨🇦 Dr. Fauci needs no defence. He did nothing wrong The same can’t be said about the jackals trying to rip him apart Why? As a distraction of course Hell is waiting for these jackals 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

If I was president, I’d rename the trump ballroom the “Dr. Anthony Fauci Free Clinic”. And I’d turn the ballroom into a fully functioning medical facility for low income DC residents open 24/7

Rand Paul. Same guy who created his own certification board when he couldn’t pass certification via the existing, AMA sanctioned, standards. His jealousy of Dr Fauci’s brilliance and respect has driven him into a towering rage.

Again, I ask: Do Republicans in Congress believe their job is to INVESTIGATE liberals, Democrats, scientists, trump’s perceived enemies? Not be the legislative branch of government? Not be the check-and-balance to the executive branch? Not to appropriate funds? Not their constitutional assignments?

I guarantee Fauci's lawyer knew they'd do this. It's going to be REALLY hard to prove in court that taking the 5th was equivalent to lying to Congress.

That the U.S. Senate thinks this is how it should spend its time, when grocery prices are soaring, and gasoline is very expensive, and we started an unnecessary war, tells you how completely out of touch they are. Going after Dr. Fauci is WASTE, FRAUD & ABUSE.

Is there ANYONE TRUMP REFUSES TO ATTACK, using Todd Blanche to attack Comey for a picture of Sea shell?🤷 Who does this? A trump puppet. GOP Senate BROKE OUR NOMINATION PROCESS BY IGNORING THE CONSTITUTION to please Trump's threats. BLANCHE already proved corrupt. Watch GOP SENATE BREAK DOJ NEXT.

Dr Fauci is qualified and tried to save lives, while Trump ignored warnings HE KNEW WERE DEADLY early on. We paid for Trump's healthcare, he cut MILLIONS OFF ANY HEALTHCARE. #TrumpSpreadCovid by ignoring Science Facts.

Qualified Dr Fauci tried to save LIVES FROM COVID. Trump ignored Science, at #deathrallies with no masks in a WORLDWIDE PANDEMIC killing people and spreading COVID19, and caught it himself. 👉👉👉WE PAID FOR TRUMPS HEALTHCARE, and HE CUT MILLIONS OFF ANY CARE, MILLIONS died B/C of Trump's ego.

I’m really so sick of the ignorance and goldfish memories of Republicans. Why didn’t they all go drink bleach and gulp horse dewormer like their autocratic hero told them to do? We’d be so much better off if they had done so because they’d be dead

What mail order school did Paul get his medical degree from? He and Moreno et al are all 💩. Disgrace. Fauci may have his human faults. But as a scientist and clinician he’s the man I respect and follow. He could have made big money with Pharma but he chose to serve the public.

I dont think we need his lawyers to justify a he said she said, but instead we could recognize the 5th amendment as being idk a gurantee... also if its so illegal why did they and do they get to use it? They cant swing the swords they with were only sharp on one side.
