Chief Medical Advisor to the President Dr. Anthony Fauci will be deposed alongside nine other federal officials as part of an ongoing lawsuit brought by a pair of Republican state attorneys general alleging that the federal government colluded with social media companies to suppress protected free speech about COVID-19, according to a court order granting the deposition request.
The depositions would require Fauci, alongside other top White House officials such as former Senior COVID-19 Advisor Andrew Schlatt and former Press Secretary Jennifer Psaki,

“[P]laintiffs argue that even if Dr. Fauci can prove he never communicated with social-media platforms about censorship, there are compelling reasons that suggest Dr. Fauci has acted through intermediaries, and acted on behalf of others, in procuring the social-media censorship of credible scientific opinions,” wrote the Trump-appointed Judge Terry Doughty of the Western District of Louisiana. “Plaintiffs argue that even if Dr. Fauci acted indirectly or as an intermediary on behalf of others, it is still relevant to Plaintiffs’ preliminary injunction motion. The Court agrees.”
“For the first time, Dr. Fauci and seven other federal officials responsible for running an unlawful censorship enterprise will have to answer questions under oath about the nature and extent of their communications with tech companies,” said Jenin Younes, litigation counsel for the New Civil Liberties Alliance, who represent four individual plaintiffs that joined the states in the lawsuit, in a statement to the Daily Caller News Foundation. “We look forward to learning more about just how far these government actors went in ensuring that Americans heard only one perspective about Covid-19: the government’s.”

Uh, Is this going to be first real chink in Fauci's armor? Certainly he has an idea that he's going to spend a ton of time sitting in a chair in a Congressional judicial committee meeting....and not as guest speaker....— Thomas Weaver (@ThomasW39947729) October 22, 2022
It's grounds for impeachment. Blatantly violating the Constitution to censor speech of political opposition by the government colluding with corporate power as an agent. That's fascism.#1A— 𝔹𝕝𝕦𝕖𝕣𝕚𝕕𝕘𝕖𝕎𝕍 - Gov't Overreach Monitor (@Blueridgewv) October 22, 2022

Talk is cheap and it is easily passed.
Follow the money.
Being under oath is totally irrelevant to these leftwing communist so expect lies and more lies.
They will lie and get away with it. And if they are caught, who is going to prosecute???
Yep....leftists of all colors are the protected class

Fauci is a criminal and he belongs behind bars.
But of course he will never serve any time in prison. That has become the American way. Only Republicans are indicted and sent to prison.
