Fauci’s Fifth Amendment Stand, Biden’s Pardon, and Accountability After COVID [0Q7j81yKgmf]

Todd examines Anthony Fauci’s appearance before a Senate committee and his decision to invoke the Fifth Amendment when questioned about the government’s COVID-era response. He contrasts that silence with Fauci’s earlier public willingness to testify and with diary entries Todd says reveal a larger behind-the-scenes role in school, restaurant, and business closures. The episode explores how Fauci’s broad preemptive pardon from President Biden may interact with the Supreme Court’s immunity doctrine, including whether protected testimony can still be compelled and whether perjury or contempt would remain prosecutable. Todd also raises questions about the pardon’s reported use of an autopen and the accountability of unelected officials who exercised sweeping influence during the pandemic. In the final segment, he turns to WNBA player Sophie Cunningham’s defense of female sports and discusses allegations that a Seattle Storm co-owner confronted teenage fans holding a supportive sign. Across both stories, Todd argues that institutions must answer for coercion, protect open dissent, and respect constitutional limits and common sense.
