Summary
CannCon and Alpha Warrior dig into the full fallout from Anthony Fauci's congressional hearing, replaying his repeated invocation of the Fifth Amendment on everything from funding conflicts to a pointed line of questioning about Bill Gates and NIAID's overseas partnerships. They also revisit Senator Ron Johnson's methodical breakdown of pandemic era studies that were buried at the time, and a sharp Stephen Miller clip crediting President Trump for pushing back on COVID orthodoxy from the very beginning. There is a fair amount of dark humor about calls for a real accounting this time around, plus some genuine frustration about how many of the same players are already resurfacing elsewhere. Expect a mix of righteous anger, gallows humor, and a healthy dose of I told you so energy from two hosts who have been covering this story for years.
