If anyone's wondering why Rand Paul doesn't press Fauci as hard as you would, it's because there are certain procedures when you're grilling someone under oath.

Anything you accuse them of is fully susceptible to scrutiny in the courts. You have to know 100% what you say is backed up by the evidence and isn't a personal attack against the individual, but rather their actions.

Leading questions or accusations of the obvious before their appropriate time can actually screw the case against the one under questioning.

Fauci is trying to get himself in a position where he can claim Rand Paul has a personal vendetta against him, which would give him the benefit of the doubt for any statements made under oath.

If Rand Paul gets too adversarial, and says something like "you're just evil, aren't you?" it would feed Fauci's defense in proving Rand Paul has a vendetta and that Fauci's defensive statements were emotionally given because he was being verbally accosted.

Under that pretense, he would hope to have his lies under oath overlooked, because he was under "mental duress" on account of Rand Paul's grilling.

It's a lousy defense, but that's all you need when the courts are rigged.

Rand Paul has to thread the needle and not let Fauci get too far away from the truth. If Paul comes out and states the truth too bluntly, he could risk letting Fauci slip through the fingers of justice. Double Jeopardy would sink the ship for good.

It's a delicate dance being played here, and, unfortunately, the home-field advantage goes to Fauci because he is innocent until proven guilty. Public Officials probably should be an exception to that rule, but that's a fight for another time.

We have evidence he lied under oath. We don't have proof. There is a difference. For proof, you'd have to show beyond a shadow of a doubt that he knew exactly what he was doing, that he knew it was wrong, and did it anyways. That's the general prerequisite for manslaughter and reckless homicide, which is the least of what Fauci is guilty of, but it is a foot in the door.

That's the only way to nail the little rat, bastard.
