Senator Ron Johnson on Friday evening fired off a warning to Dr. Fauci after he refused to appear for a private, transcribed interview.
Senator Johnson invited Fauci to appear for a private interview after the former NIAID director pleaded the Fifth Amendment 111 times and refused to answer questions.
Ron Johnson said his subcommittee will continue to obtain Fauci’s records and warned his team will explore legal options.
Full statement from Ron Johnson:
Dr. Fauci’s attorney has just notified us that Fauci refuses to appear for a private transcribed interview.
The American people deserve answers to legitimate questions regarding our miserably failed response to COVID-19. Some of those questions can only be answered by Dr. Fauci. He arrogantly once stated that he was “very happy to testify before any congressional oversight committee. I have nothing to hide.”
Apparently, he has a lot to hide.
Since Fauci refuses to talk about his role and decisions related to COVID-19, my Subcommittee will continue to obtain his records and request to speak with key individuals that he worked with. We will explore our legal options before deciding our next steps.

Last Monday, Senators Ron Johnson and Rand Paul released the first batch of text messages from Dr. Fauci’s Covid-era iPhone.
The text messages revealed that Fauci privately knew that the Covid vaccine caused miscarriages in pregnant women.
Fauci covered up the data that revealed an 82% miscarriage rate in women vaccinated during the first trimester.
The first batch of texts was between Dr. Fauci, former CDC Director Rochelle Walensky, and Biden’s Surgeon General, Dr. Vivek Murthy.
Fauci said a second dose of the mRNA Covid vaccine “theoretically could be associated with miscarriage in the 1st trimester.”
