Marshall Urges Fauci Probe Over 111 Fifth Amendment Invocations and 2021 Pregnancy Vaccine Texts

3 articles · Updated · Fox News · Aug 11

Summary

  • Roger Marshall on Tuesday called for a special counsel to investigate Anthony Fauci, saying only an outside probe with subpoena power could examine newly released 2021 texts on COVID-19 vaccination during pregnancy.
  • January 2021 messages show Fauci warning that post-second-dose cytokine storms and fever could theoretically be linked to first-trimester miscarriage, a private concern Marshall says conflicted with Fauci's public assurances.
  • The next month, Fauci told CBS News there were no pregnancy-related red flags among thousands of vaccinated pregnant women, and later said vaccination was extremely important for pregnant women and those planning pregnancy.
  • The Senate Health Committee has already referred Fauci to the Justice Department, while Marshall also floated a 9/11-style commission and accused Fauci of taking the Fifth 111 times in congressional questioning.
