Paul promises investigation of Fauci if Republicans take Senate | TheHill https://t.co/1jxapbjAo3

— Senator Rand Paul (@RandPaul) February 4, 2022

Via The Hill, “Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) says he plans to subpoena Anthony Fauci‘s records if Republicans retake the Senate in November’s midterm elections and he becomes chairman of a committee.

Paul stands to become chairman of the Senate Health Committee if Republicans flip the 50-50 upper chamber. The committee’s current ranking member, Sen. Richard Burr (R-N.C.), is retiring.

‘If we win in November, if I’m chairman of a committee, if I have subpoena power, we’ll go after every one of [Fauci’s] records,’ Paul said during an interview with conservative podcast host Lisa Boothe. ‘We’ll have an investigator go through this piece-by-piece because we don’t need this to happen again.”

Fear of the fast-spreading Omicron variant of the coronavirus is leading school officials across the country to once again shutter schools. In Cleveland, for example, this first week of school for the new year is entirely remote for public school students. Several districts throughout Ohio are following suit, while others are re-imposing 2020 virus-related restrictions or extending the holiday break into this week.”
