Legal eagle Alan Dershowitz breaks down Dr. Fauci’s Fifth Amendment tactics in Congress, calling them a savvy, lawyerly shield—not a sign of guilt. Despite President Biden’s pardon covering Fauci’s service up to next January, Dershowitz clarifies it’s not retroactive, leaving room for post-pardon charges if documents or lies are proven. He explains that once you invoke the Fifth, you must keep invoking it to maintain protection—and Fauci’s lawyer likely advised the repetitive refusals as a strategic, legally sound move. Dershowitz also notes that while Congress could grant immunity to force testimony, they may prefer the drama of Fauci’s silence over the clarity it would bring. Ultimately, he reminds us the Fifth Amendment exists to protect all, and any congressional push for contempt over invoking it could spiral into a long, likely winning legal battle for Fauci.
