Florida investigating Fauci for potential physical and monetary harms to residents during Covid follow-on Senate hearings. So Florida realized maybe the federal government can't do anything about it, but we can. We can do something about it. So the Attorney General, James Uthmeier, which is a heavyweight, this guy's going to get used to this guy's name.
He's going to do some stuff. Announced he is opening an investigation to Dr. Anthony Fauci's following Fauci's decision to invoke his Fifth Amendment right and not answer any questions during Wednesday's Congressional hearing. Fauci's lack of candor to Congress is unbelievable. My office is launching an investigation into Dr. Anthony Fauci. It's past time we get the truth of what happened during Covid. Uthmeier wrote, Our next inquiry will focus on what Fauci knew when he knew it and how he misled the American people and will examine the physical and monetary harms to Floridians that may have resulted from his deceptions. Uthmeier cited revelations published by Rand Paul Fauci's internal notes written on the government computers during his time in NIAID. One February 2020 entry shows Fauci privately discussing the case fertility rate of 0.2 to 0.3 with other CDC director Tom Frieden. Yet a month later in congressional testimony, Fauci pegged mortality rate at 1% calling it 10 times more lethal than the flu.
Ted Cruz said Fauci deliberately lied to the American people over and over again and should go to jail. So, this is the part where if someone wants to go af... By the way, hours afterwards, him and his wife were caught walking outside and people were saying things to them. And he was telling them to F off, I think.

**Vinnie** (1:59)
He said F off to someone that was talking to him.

**Patrick Bet-David** (2:01)
Yeah, he was on the phone with somebody and telling them to F off. So, Tom, what is the likelihood that if Florida goes after him, a state goes after him, more states go after him, that eventually comes down to something like closing that open wound?

**Tom** (2:14)
I now think that we are crossing 90% chance that he will be convicted of something somewhere.

**Patrick Bet-David** (2:20)
You're at 90%?

**Tom** (2:22)
No, let me tell you. Convicted of something somewhere. And I'll tell you why I think that. And by the way, I think it would be...

**Patrick Bet-David** (2:28)
Pull up the calcium numbers as well.

**Tom** (2:29)
He's 85 years old. Already two years old. One or the other. I think he's 85

**Patrick Bet-David** (2:34)
He's old.

**Tom** (2:35)
Yep.

**Patrick Bet-David** (2:36)
He's a healthy 85 year old, too, respectfully.

**Tom** (2:39)
Correct. We've been vaccinated multiple times. I'm surprised he's still with us. The whole, the reason I say that, I think he will be convicted under a plea deal by someone somewhere, and I believe it will be one of the states that gets angry enough about the open wound they still have, number one, and number two, Pat, this hearing did, look at that, up to 32, 32 percent?

**Patrick Bet-David** (3:05)
Can we pull up the latest report that's active? Can we pull up the latest report of being active? Because, and that thing was at zero, then went to 10 when you showed me, Tom, then 20, now 32 percent.

**Tom** (3:20)
So I think there will be a procedural success by Rand Paul in that he will be found guilty in committee of contempt of Congress, number one. Number two, I believe one of the states, and Florida is laying the groundwork, and by the way, Florida has not been idle on this. Ron DeSantis, God bless him, he's been behind the scenes with the state attorney general preparing the case on behalf of the people of the great state of Florida. And he's been on that. So this is, Florida didn't just wake up with this hearing. They've been on it, you know, because Ron DeSantis has been taking shots, you know, since he was the bold governor that stepped out and said, UV, beaches, I'm not closing them, I'm not doing it, you know? If there was a moment, Florida, but then he stepped back from it. And so I believe a state like Florida is going to get something and they're going to get it to the end and he's going to have to plea.
