WASHINGTON — A lawmaker who made headlines for grilling Dr. Anthony Fauci on the House floor shared what Americans should keep in mind Wednesday when the public health official faces Congress for the first time in two years.
Fauci will testify in front of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee — chaired by his longtime critic, Republican Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul — marking the first time the face of the government-led U.S. medical establishment’s COVID-19 response has appeared on Capitol Hill since June 2024. Republican Georgia Rep. Rich McCormick — one of just 20 physicians in Congress — told the Daily Caller News Foundation that, due to receiving a preemptive pardon on President Joe Biden’s last day in office, Fauci may not feel like he even has to answer any of the senators’ questions.
“Anybody who realized what happened in the political Biden era — he [Fauci] got basically a pardon, so he doesn’t feel pressured,” McCormick told the DCNF in an exclusive interview. “He can plead the Fifth on anything. He’s never been forthcoming or honest about what his opinions were.”
WATCH:
The congressman — who served as a Marine Corps helicopter pilot and emergency room doctor — said that the Fauci-endorsed “one size fits all” push of the COVID vaccine on Americans may have been a way to cover up the fact that U.S. taxpayer money was used to fund “gain of function” research at a lab in Wuhan, China, the city where the COVID virus originated.
“He tried to cover it up. He tried to make everybody get a vaccination, thinking ‘one size fits all,'” McCormick told the DCNF. “You had people who already had immunity that you’re giving vaccinations to that had hyper immune responses that caused real harm. That was by government design — not that they wanted to harm people, but they thought, ‘one size fit all.'”
“You forced people in order to live a normal life to do that,” he emphasized. “Shame on you.”
The last time Fauci appeared in front of lawmakers, the Georgia Republican grilled him for having appeared to called hesitancy to get the COVID vaccine “ideological bullshit.”
“[Y]ou’re going to have schools, universities, and colleges [that] are going to say, ‘You want to come to this college? Buddy, you’re going to get vaccinated,'” Fauci said in the summer of 2021. “And it’s been proven that when you make it difficult for people in their lives, they lose their ideological bullshit and they get vaccinated.”
