The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Next week there will be a vote to hold him in contempt of Congress, which will likely pass. If it does they refer him to the DOJ.


Perhaps. This seems like a bit of a novel theory, so I don't know how well it will hold up. But I think a criminal referral was inevitable no matter what Fauci said, given Paul's stated desire to put him in prison, so this may be the most advantageous strategy.

But again, this is why you and your interlocutors are talking past each other. Not because they're dumb or wrong, but because the legal basis for Fauci's Fifth Amendment assertion is not obviated by the prior pardon.
