Biden Judge Orders Trump To Restore Left-Wing Ideology to National Parks

I was told by a veteran of the Justice Department that there are three viable and somewhat unconventional legal strategies.

One strategy calls for charging Fauci with a crime, with the expectation he would file a motion with the court to dismiss based on the pardon. This could open the door to challenging the sweeping pardon’s viability.

Another strategy involves Congress. The pre-emptive pardon complicates Fauci’s scheduled testimony later this month. Because Fauci has been pre-emptively pardoned against past and future criminal charges related to his NIH work, Fauci has no plausible claim to the 5th Amendment, the right against self-incrimination.

If Fauci tried to take the Fifth at Senator Paul’s hearing, the committee could go to a judge to compel his testimony. A finding of contempt could follow.

Finally, one of Fauci’s closest associates has been criminally charged. With pressure and the right incentives he might be flipped and become a cooperating witness.

Dr. David Morens, who was a senior advisor to Fauci at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, was indicted on multiple charges including conspiracy and obstruction, including destruction, alteration or falsification of federal records.

Along with allegations that personal email accounts were used to evade the Freedom of Information Act, this could be a powerful motivator.
