Rand Paul Releases Fauci Contempt Resolution
Ahead of Senate Vote
Posted By: earlybird, 8/4/2026 9:11:55 PM
A resolution the Senate is scheduled to vote on this week states that Dr. Anthony Fauci’s repeated invocation of the Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination during Congressional testimony did not apply because the conduct he was questioned about occurred during time covered by a preemptive pardon given to Fauci in 2025 by outgoing President Joe Biden. Fauci, the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases from 1984 to 2022, read an opening statement during the July 29 hearing before saying, in answer to every single question, he was invoking the Fifth Amendment.

When Texas Children’s Hospital’s “detransition clinic” opens in Houston, it will become the first facility of its kind, giving patients who regret life-altering procedures a chance at restorative care.
The facility, which has yet to announce an opening date, is part of an agreement with state and federal authorities to halt “gender-affirming care” at children’s hospitals while offering help to those who transitioned medically.
A 10-page settlement term sheet, recently obtained by The Epoch Times through an open records request to the Texas attorney general’s office, showed that services at the clinic will focus on multidisciplinary care.
Renowned wildlife biologist Forrest Galante erupted during an appearance on Joe Rogan’s podcast, accusing Bill Gates and his foundation of helping destroy one of Africa’s most important freshwater fisheries through a disastrous mosquito-net program.
Galante said the foundation distributed millions of tightly woven nets across communities near the Cahora Bassa Delta to combat malaria.
However, starving residents used the nets to catch fish instead.
Because mosquito nets contain extremely small holes, Galante said they indiscriminately captured juvenile fish before they could mature and reproduce, devastating a fishery relied upon by millions of people.

Microsoft co-founder and private citizen Bill Gates received top security clearance from the Department of Energy (DOE), giving him access to deep government secrets for seven years, according to a letter obtained by Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY).
The billionaire was given “Q security clearance” from 2014 to 2021, beginning during Barack Obama’s presidency and overlapping Dr. Anthony Fauci’s controversial and powerful tenure heading the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), according to the Daily Caller’s reporting of the letter.
Sen. Paul requested the letter be entered into the Congressional record during Wednesday’s committee hearing where the now retired disease doctor evoked Fifth Amendment protection more than 100 times when
Old habits die hard. At least that is the case for our Supreme Court’s Justice Neil Gorsuch, who persists in repeating the erroneous narrative that America was founded as religiously neutral. In a July 24th interview with PBS’ Margaret Hoover, Gorsuch gave his interpretation of the American founding, denying America was founded as a Christian nation:
“We were never supposed to be a nation that was about one race or one religion … It was about those ideas [in the Declaration of Independence] … We have a First Amendment, for crying out loud. No established religion.”
Several people sent me this video with comments about DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin appearing to be hesitant on deporting illegal aliens. I watched ready to chew (in typeset) his head off. However, I don’t see that amnesty aspect as part of his commentary.
On the illegal alien workers, I structurally disagree with every single person who have used that argument for the past 20 years. We do not need illegal alien workers, not even in the agricultural sector. The illegal farm worker argument is a ruse, created by Big Ag, and promoted by smaller Ag to protect their bottom line and themselves from criticism.
Standing against what he calls “selfish” motives of European leadership, Spain’s socialist Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez says tolerance for mass illegal migration must win over the loud voices of short-sighted nationalism. According to Sanchez, these EU regulations and rules against the dreams of sub-Saharan Africans are polarizing and stopping migrants from fulfilling their greatest aspirations.Telegraph – via MSM – Pedro Sánchez has criticised “selfish” EU leaders after 22 European prime ministers and presidents attacked him for the sudden migrant surge in Ceuta. Spain’s prime minister wrote a letter to the heads of the EU institutions after Italy and France ramped up border controls in response to the 60,000 Moroccan migrants
A judge approved Bryan Kohberger's request for a new lawyer in his attempt to secure a new trial, despite his previous guilty plea for murdering four University of Idaho students in 2022. Legal analyst Mehek Cooke discusses the high bar for overturning a guilty plea, while the victim's family expresses the pain of reliving the tragedy.

Luigi Mangione’s radical supporters are leading the charge pushing for a rarely-used legal loophole that could let the suspected healthcare CEO killer walk free — even if the jury believes he is guilty beyond reasonable doubt of the cold-blooded murder.
The December 4 Legal Committee, which has raised more than $1.5 million for Mangione’s defense fund, is raising awareness about jury nullification, a legal power by which a defiant jury can find a defendant not guilty if they believe the law the accused is charged with breaking is unjust, The Times reported.
While rare since the 19th century, it’s used when a jury wants to “send a message about some social issue

The Western world has spent decades being lectured about the glorious wonders and magic of mass migration.“Diversity is our strength” became the left’s go-to slogan that they used to shut down any legit questions about borders, assimilation, crime, social factors, and whether millions of people from radically different Muslim cultures could actually live in harmony with the Western world.Now, after so many disasters, soaring crime, and filth and decay, many people are now realizing the very hard way that it was never that simple, and that slogan has been a death sentence for the West.)snip)appreciating other cultures doesn’t mean we all sit here pretending we’re compatible.

Francesca Hong, current Democrat gubernatorial candidate in the state of Wisconsin, said she once left a Culver’s fast food restaurant after she nearly experienced an “anxiety attack” due to “too many old white people.”
Hong shared her story about the anxiety episode in a 2019 post on X.
“I ate two bites of my kid’s cheeseburger at a Culver’s in black river falls and told him they ran out of ice cream. Mostly just wanted to leave bc I was on the verge of a anxiety attack,” she said.
Hong said the establishment had “to many old white people who didn’t think we spoke english.”
Monday on Fox News Channel’s “America’s Newsroom,” former Vice President Mike Pence said it is time for President Donald Trump to “unleash” the military to “finish the job” in Iran.
Host Bill Hemmer said, “I want to ask you about Iran. We had a Fox poll that came out about two weeks ago. We asked the question on the ultimate outcome with Iran. The U.S. will reach what good deal, bad deal or no deal. And 48% said no deal. What’s your view?”
Pence said, “Well, I have more confidence in President Trump than that. I think the Iranians should be very wary at this moment. Look, I strongly supported

Given the unchecked flood of illegal immigration now taking place across the European continent and Britain, the headline above asks a valid question: Will Europe in the future exist only as a territory, but not as a civilization and a culture?
Spain is the latest flashpoint in Europe’s battle to maintain control over its borders.
Last week’s stunning border break in Ceuta, a North African enclave that has been part of Spain for over 400 years, should be a wake-up call for all of Europe and the U.S., too. More than 60,000 migrants crossed en masse, with at least 57 dying in the violent chaos of breaking through the border and swimming
On Monday, OutKick Founder Clay Travis announced that he is upping the ante and offering a $10 million wager to the WNBA: Your champion team vs. a boys’ high school state championship team.
If the WNBA wins, Travis pays them $10 million. If the boys win, the league pays Travis $10 million.
“Important announcement: I am upping my offer, 10 million dollars for a head-to-head basketball game between the defending WNBA champion Las Vegas Aces and a boy’s [sic] high school state title team of my choice,” Travis wrote. “If the Aces beat my team, I will give them $10 million.”

So New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani has a solution to the obvious problems of his free government groceries going out the door to speculators and out-of-staters who can buy and can resell the discounted foods at a profit.
Here he is: The July 27 exchange, transcribed by Grok and me:
Q: How you gonna keep people from taking advantage of that deal basically, and is there going to be a limit on the number of items that someone can take that are discounted at that level from that essential basket?

A socialist Dem running for Wisconsin governor became visibly uncomfortable and served up a word salad when asked whether she still stands by her call to “cancel Thanksgiving” because it is “celebrating colonialism.”
At the height of the Covid pandemic, Francesca Hong, who is the frontrunner to become the Democratic nominee in America’s Dairyland, said that the beloved holiday needs to be scrapped, and that America “should have done this in 1621.”
She added: “If it takes a worldwide pandemic for us to realize we should stop celebrating colonialism and the original superspreader event that killed Indegenous [sic] folx [sic] and women so be it.”
Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s universal childcare plan will cost 50% more than he advertised, according to a new study. The proposed program is estimated to cost a whopping $9 billion annually, approximately with an average cost per child roughly $27,000, according to the report from the Center for New York City Affairs, a nonpartisan research organization affiliated with the New School. “An estimated $8.7 to $9.3 billion would be needed annually to fund universal child care in New York City,” the report, which was released on Monday, states.
Republican US Senator Darline Graham (R-SC) came out in favor of nuking the filibuster to get the SAVE Act passed.
Graham, the sister of former Senator Lindsey Graham, came out in support of the SAVE Act and says she is in favor of eliminating the senate filibuster to get it to pass. Darline made the comments during the South Carolina Republican US Senate debate.
Graham added that Democrats will abolish the filibuster if they take control of the US Senate anyway.
What a breath of fresh air.
The repatriation of illegal aliens from the United States to wherever they came from is still ongoing, and it seems to be picking up. In July, reports indicate that Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrests broke all previous records: 51,000. Bear in mind that this number also includes people arrested for interfering with ICE operations. Color me skeptical on that last item, especially coming as it does from a nameless immigration attorney.
Here's the interesting part: At least one ally of President Trump on this issue is calling for a change in focus.
The vibrant, east Asian immigrant enclave of Flushing may be New York’s medical fraud capital.
A one-mile radius of the neighborhood boasts 77 Social Adult Daycares (SADCs), which bill Medicaid over $100 million a year, accounting for 14 percent of all daycare spending in the state, a Post investigation reveals.
When The Post visited some of largest — which are private businesses that have claimed between $20 and 40 million from Medicaid over the last six years — many storefronts were shuttered, and those that were open had empty rooms with no patients.
In Northern Ireland, there have been recent protests about the numbers of Muslim migrants being allowed to settle in the territory, and about their placement in public housing ahead of the indigenous poor. Now someone in Northern Ireland has chosen to express his fury at this state of affairs by setting alight an effigy of an Islamic State (ISIS) terrorist and his mosque. For thus expressing his view, he has been charged with “incitement to hatred.” And that has caused quite a stir. More on the resulting uproar can be found here.
