Fauci May Set Record For Pleading The Fifth The Most
The fifth amendment protects from incrimination, so why is guy pardoned by a president still avoiding honesty?

The world is a little bit of white, or light. It's a little bit of black, or darkness. No, this has nothing to do with race, because there are no white or black people, not really. This is a lesson about our world. And in our world, the gray is getting bigger and bigger, leaving much less of the light and much less of the dark easily identifiable.
Today was one of those banner days, when a man, whom many called a heroic figure, was summoned to testify before a Senate committee. The guy who was supposed to be the hero to lead us from the COVID-19 pandemic was expected to be questioned about the virus's origins.
You all remember him. His name is Dr. Anthony Fauci. He served under multiple presidents, including Obama, Trump, and Joe Biden. He was also the director of the NIH during the COVID pandemic outbreak. Oh, and he's a guy that many believe lied his ass off repeatedly to the people of the United States and, ultimately, the world.
So, with a little history, we also know Dr. Anthony Fauci as one of the many, many, many recipients of a blanket pardon, issued by what we're told was President Biden, but ultimately, was it? Fast forward a few years, and we know that many of Biden's final actions were signed by the now nefarious autopen. There are rules to the use of the Autopen, which may or may not have been followed.
Hmmmmm?
The plot gets more and more murky as time goes on throughout the timeline of events good old Dr. Fauci was going to be questioned about.
Interesting that an educated man such as Dr. Fauci chose to take the fifth on questions after being asked about the day of the week, his tie color, and basically anything having to do with the hearing.
Anybody who understands the Fifth Amendment, which isn't a tough one, understands it's to protect oneself from self-incrimination. As you watch the hearing and the questions by Senator Hawley, it's clear that he's being asked about self-enrichment through his federal time, and the use of federal resources to do so.
Wow, I bet he never expected the truth seekers would eventually have enough to drag him in there and force him to answer questions about violations of federal law during his time as a federal employee. Well, shit, a hearing that actually points out a violation of the law directly to the person responsible.
"No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation."

This is the guy that so many people trusted. They trusted him when he lied about masks. They trusted him when he said the vaccines were safe. And they trusted him when our political leaders, such as Joe Biden, even Donald Trump, and so many others, referred us to his expertise.
Now, we are left to wonder: what's he afraid of? The truth.
Perhaps it's indicative of everybody who was given a blanket pardon during Biden's final hours. Were they all guilty of something? Watching the hearings today, it certainly seems like good old Dr. Fauci will continue to be the subject of investigations.
And while he was pardoned, that too is likely to be challenged. Did Joe Biden pardon him knowingly, or did the users of the autopen do so under Biden's name, and Biden never had a chance to sign it since he was very soon after to leave the White House? If the latter, those pardons become worthless under the use of the autopen policy.
