- Senate panel votes to hold Fauci in contempt after pleading the fifth during COVID-19 hearing

- Date posted
- 13 hours ago
- Description
- A Senate committee has voted to hold Dr. Anthony Fauci in contempt of Congress after he invoked the Fifth Amendment 111 times during questioning about the COVID-19 pandemic, federal research funding, and the Wuhan laboratory.
Sen. Rand Paul argues that Fauci’s presidential pardon removed his grounds for refusing to answer. Fauci’s attorneys maintain that he was exercising his constitutional rights and call the contempt effort politically motivated.
The committee vote is not a criminal conviction, and the Justice Department must decide whether further action is warranted. In this video, we examine what happened, why Fauci invoked the Fifth, and what could come next.

- Vice President JD Vance on Wednesday called on Congress to help codify a broader federal anti-fraud effort, arguing that stronger data-sharing rules, steeper penalties and more resources are needed to stop waste, fraud and abuse in government programs.
Speaking at a roundtable event with lawmakers focused on fraud prevention, Vance said the Trump administration’s fraud task force had identified $230 billion in fraud and stopped $56 billion in fraudulent payments since it was created.
He said the effort, which has involved agencies across the federal government, should now be backed by legislation to make the changes permanent.
This effort will fundamentally always have a limitation unless our colleagues in the House and the Senate are working with us," Vance said. "In order to make this really work, we need our colleagues in Congress to really codify some of this stuff, to make sure that it becomes law."

In a new report, Sand said Iowa has made the largest improvement of any state in nursing home inspections over the past two years. He pointed to inspection times shrinking from about once in every 17 months to every 12 months. Of Iowa's 398 nursing homes, just 2.8% did not receive their individual inspection on time. Sand said that's a major improvement from 85% in 2024.
