## Resource

Senate Homeland Security Committee Chairman Rand Paul (R-KY) ordered U.S. Capitol Police to forcibly remove Dr. Anthony Fauci's lead attorney, David Schertler, from a high-stakes congressional hearing on July 29, 2026, after the lawyer repeatedly attempted to speak and object during questioning. The dramatic ejection capped off an explosive, three-hour session regarding the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic and the federal response.
