Rand Paul Tells Joe Rogan He Can’t Get Trump DOJ To ‘Do Anything’ About His Fauci Criminal Referral

Republican Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul expressed frustration about President Donald Trump’s Justice Department (DOJ) not acting on his criminal referral for Dr. Anthony Fauci on a Tuesday episode of “The Joe Rogan Experience.”

Paul renewed his 2023 criminal referral to the DOJ on July 14 after details emerged about Fauci receiving a pardon via an autopen used by former President Joe Biden’s staff. He told Rogan on his podcast that Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has assisted him, but that the DOJ has not.

“Under the Biden administration, I sent criminal referrals for Anthony Fauci to Merrick Garland twice. And I sent them evidence that he had lied to Congress, which was a felony,” Paul said. “They just ignored me. I’ve been working with Bobby Kennedy. And he’s been very helpful on this. I have good relationship with him. He’s given us a lot of information. And we’ve looked at the communications.”

“And in Anthony Fauci’s communications, we now have evidence that he was telling people like Francis Collins, ‘Read this and destroy it.’ Well, you can’t do that,” he continued. “The executive branch, when they communicate, they’re required to keep their communications. And they’re required to do it on government devices. So, we have this evidence. And I’ve summarized it again in a criminal referral to Trump’s attorney general. And I still haven’t gotten action.”
