Marjorie Taylor Greene grills Fauci at COVID hearing: ‘You belong in prison!’

‘You know what this committee should be doing? We should be recommending you to be prosecuted.’

Firebrand Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene grilled Dr. Anthony Fauci during a House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic Monday. At one point, she said he deserves to be in jail for committing crimes against humanity.

Fauci’s testimony was his first appearance on Capitol Hill since stepping down in disgrace as the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases in 2022. While Democrats praised him for “saving lives,” Republican lawmakers criticized him for his social distancing ban and mask mandates for schoolchildren, among other COVID policies.

Greene began her line of questioning by recalling that Fauci green lit an experiment on sedated dogs in Tunisia where their heads were placed in cages while flies ate them alive.

“As a dog lover, I want to tell you this is disgusting and evil what you signed off on!” Greene exclaimed. “The type of ‘science’ that you are representing, Mr. Fauci, is abhorrent, and it needs to stop!”

Greene then noted that Fauci told the Committee in January that there was no scientific data to back up his recommendations.

“You confess that you made up the COVID rules, including six feet social distancing and making of children,” she stated.

Fauci attempted to clarify his previous remark that the ban “sort of just appeared” by alleging that the Centers for Disease Control came up with it.

A visibly upset Greene then drew attention to a story from the New York Post published on Sunday alleging that scientists from the National Institutes of Health made over $700 million in royalties from Big Pharma.

She also highlighted one of Fauci’s emails from 2020 that showed he didn’t believe masks were helpful in preventing the spread of COVID.

“Healthy children forced to wear masks and muzzled in their schools. And then they were forced to learn from home because of your so-called science and your medical suggestions while you and all your cronies get paid from Big Pharma,” she stated.

Throughout her line of questioning, Greene did not refer to Fauci as a doctor. Democrats on the committee called for a point of order demanding she do so. She refused and said his medical license should be revoked.

“You’re not a doctor, you’re Mr. Fauci in my few minutes.”

Greene concluded her remarks by stating that Fauci should be in prison.

“You know what this committee should be doing? We should be recommending you to be prosecuted. We should be writing a criminal referral because you should be prosecuted for crimes against humanity.”

Following the hearing, Fauci appeared on CNN complaining about alleged death threats that came about as a result of Greene’s “vitriolic” comments.

No one should get death threats and I get them ALL THE TIME.

But lucky for Mr Fauci, he has Secret Service Protection at the tax payers expense.

I DO NOT, and have to pay for my own security and am a gun owner.

It’s not my comments that have people furious at Mr Fauci, it’s… pic.twitter.com/UcEBTh0JGa

Greene replied in an X post that no one should be treated that way but that the reason the American people are “furious” with Fauci is because his “tyrannical policies DESTROYED people’s lives.”

Freedom Convoy’s Tamara Lich shares heartfelt letter from children: ‘God will be by your side’

Ahead of the announcement of the verdict from her trial in Canada, the Freedom Convoy co-leader posted on X the ‘beautiful letter’ from a 4-year-old and 8-year-old.

With a few weeks until a verdict is released, Freedom Convoy leader Tamara Lich shared a heartwarming letter she received from a child, who told her to “keep fighting” for everyone and that “God will protect” her from the “enemy.”

Lich shared an image of the letter Thursday on X, writing, “Feels like a good day to share this beautiful letter I received from some very wise children.”

The letter, which was handwritten and sent to Lich by 4-year-old Zavier and 8-year-old Alanis, has the title “God loves You.”

“Thank you for fighting for everyones FREEDOM. God will be by your side and God will protect you from the enemy,” the letter reads.

“With God everything is possible. Stay strong we are praying for you every step of the journey.”

Lich was arrested on February 17, 2022, in Ottawa. Co-leader Chris Barber was arrested the same day.

Lich and Barber’s trial concluded in September 2024, more than a year after it began. It was originally scheduled to last 16 days.

As reported by LifeSiteNews, Lich and Barber’s verdict will be announced on March 12.

They both face a possible 10-year prison sentence. LifeSiteNews reported extensively on their trial.

As reported by LifeSiteNews, Lich recently spelled out how much the Canadian government has spent prosecuting her and Barber for their role in the protests. She said at least $5 million in “taxpayer dollars” has been spent thus far, with her and Barber’s legal costs being above $750,000.

In early 2022, the Freedom Convoy saw thousands of Canadians from coast to coast come to Ottawa to demand an end to COVID mandates in all forms. Despite the peaceful nature of the protest, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government enacted the never-before-used Emergencies Act (EA) on February 14, 2022.

During the clear-out of protesters after the EA was put in place, one protester, an elderly lady, was trampled by a police horse and one conservative female reporter was beaten by police and shot with a tear gas canister.

Trudeau revoked the EA on February 23.

The EA controversially allowed the government to freeze the bank accounts of protesters, conscript tow truck drivers, and arrest people for participating in assemblies the government deemed illegal.

Red Deer Freedom Convoy protestor Pat King given 3 months of house arrest

Ontario Superior Court Justice Charles Hackland ruled that Pat King must serve three months of house arrest and dedicate 100 hours to community service for his participation in the 2022 Freedom Convoy

Freedom Convoy participant Pat King has been given a 3-month conditional sentence for his role in the 2022 Freedom Convoy protest against COVID mandates.

On February 19, Ontario Superior Court Justice Charles Hackland ruled that King must serve three additional months of house arrest and dedicate 100 hours to community service for his role in the Freedom Convoy. King’s sentence would have been 12 months, but the court gave him credit for time served prior to his trial.

“In the court’s opinion, there is a social harm to unduly elevating the sentencing rules of denunciation and deterrence in the context of political protests to result in punitive sentences at the top of the sentencing range,” Hackland wrote, explaining why he did not opt to sentence King to a whopping 10-year prison sentence, as the Crown prosecutors had advocated for.

“The risk is that an overly severe sentence of imprisonment in the context of legitimate, constitutionally protected activity can have the effect of creating a chill or fear of participation in political expression,” he continued.

In November, King was found guilty of two counts of disobeying a court order, one count of mischief, one count of counselling others to commit mischief, as well as one count of counselling others to obstruct police.  

King’s charges are in relation to his role in the 2022 Freedom Convoy which featured thousands of Canadians camping out in downtown Ottawa to call for an end to the COVID regulations and vaccine mandates in place at the time.

Despite the peaceful nature of the protest, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government enacted the Emergencies Act on February 14, 2022, to put an end to the popular convoy. Trudeau revoked the EA on February 23, but only after using the powers granted by the legislation to freeze the bank accounts of protesters, conscript tow truck drivers, and arrest people for participating in the assembly. 

The two main Freedom Convoy leaders, Tamara Lich and Chris Barber, are still awaiting their verdicts for their involvement in the 2022 protests. Like King, if convicted, they face a maximum prison sentence of 10 years.

While some of the most notable people involved in the protest, like Lich and Barber, face a slew of charges that come with potentially harsh sentences, other protesters charged for participating have seen their charges dropped.
