On Saturday, Florida Politics ran an encouraging story headlined, “Ron DeSantis thinks James Uthmeier could prosecute Anthony Fauci.” Mr. Uthmeier replaced former Attorney General Ashley Moody after the Governor appointed her to Marco Rubio’s senate seat.
Last week interest grew on social media related to prosecuting the human cockroach under state law. Biden’s infamous pardon of the deep-state doc does not extend to any potential state-law crimes. “We have got a new Attorney General coming in. I think he’s of the mindset to look at this to see what the jurisdictional hooks are, to see what if any state statutes may have been violated,” DeSantis told Yale’s Federalist Society on Saturday.
DeSantis added it was possible that “some other states would also do it.” Wouldn’t that be the most wonderful reversal of all? Florida’s Governor might have been on to something. On Saturday, Must Read Alaska ran a wonderful story headlined, “18 state Attorneys General launch investigation into Dr. Fauci’s role in Covid-19 response.”
In a letter addressed to Speaker of the House Mike Johnson and Senate Majority Leader John Thune, the 18 attorneys general commended current congressional efforts to uncover potential misconduct. They also requested state-level cooperation in investigating any violations of state laws.
“President Biden’s blanket pardon of Dr. Fauci is a shameful attempt to prevent accountability,” said South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson, who drafted the letter. “If any of these findings indicate violations of state laws, we are fully prepared to take appropriate action to ensure justice is served.”
See how far we’ve come? You can scuttle under the retirement refrigerator, Fauci, but you can’t hide from the exterminator.
In more Fauci news, yesterday Newsweek reported, “Fauci museum exhibit funding canceled: DOGE.” Friday afternoon, DOGE posted on X that Health and Human Services had canceled 62 contracts worth a total of $182 million in the previous two days, including a $168,000 award to build an exhibit for Fauci at the NIH museum.
Paradoxically, Biden’s inglorious pre-emptive pardon of the highest-paid federal employee in history may have only inflamed anti-Fauci sentiment, leading to what may be a stunning reversal of fortunes for the disaster-prone doctor.
This Fauci thing isn’t over. Not by a long shot. It’s just getting started.
