1:19Now PlayingAnthony Fauci, the former top U.S. infectious disease expert, declined to answer questions at a Senate hearing, invoking his constitutional right against self-incrimination and accusing Republican Senator Rand Paul of an "unhinged" campaign to see him imprisoned.
Fauci declined to answer 15 questions from Paul, invoking his Fifth Amendment rights for each of them.
Paul said Fauci was not allowed to plead the Fifth, that a pardon issued by former President Joe Biden would not protect him and that there would be consequences for his refusal to answer the questions. Paul then had one of Fauci's lawyers removed from the hearing after refusing to recognize his attempts to speak.
