Fauci hearing should remind Catholics how US bishops betrayed them during COVID-19

 If Dr. Fauci committed crimes against humanity, then those clergy who collaborated with him are likewise guilty, especially of spiritual crimes against faithful Catholics.

The recent Senate hearing of Dr. Anthony Fauci turned into a farce when Republican Senator Rand Paul’s and others’ attempts to get answers on the government’s handling of COVID-19 were met with Fauci invoking his Fifth Amendment right more than 100 times.

Fauci, the former director of the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), appeared before the U.S. Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee this week more than six years after the pandemic began.


🚨 Sen. Rand Paul just DROPPED this bomb on Anthony Fauci: "It is a CRIME to destroy federal records, yet our investigation reveals your assistant diligently reported that she deleted tons of emails!" "In 2024, you testify that you did not delete federal records. Who's telling Show more

Many Americans see Fauci as a villain and as the principal instigator and architect of tyrannical measures, dubious medical treatments, and draconian policies endorsed by the Trump administration. Some commentators have alleged that Fauci got filthy rich through a variety of immoral and unethical practices and engagements during this time.

Contempt of Congress

During the hearing, Fauci refused to answer questions about the origins of the coronavirus and other inquiries on pandemic restrictions, vaccine policies, and internal government communications.  

Senator Paul argued that repeatedly invoking the Fifth Amendment raised legitimate questions about accountability. Republicans on the committee have since voted to hold Fauci in contempt of Congress, which is a federal misdemeanor.

Paul also maintained that the American public deserves direct answers about decisions that affected millions of lives with business closures, education loss, mental health issues, the curtailing of civil liberties, and social upheaval.

US bishops were complicit

Equally important for faithful Catholics is that they cannot blame Fauci or the Trump administration alone. They mustn’t forget the despicable role the US Conference of Catholic Bishops played in the COVID-19 nightmare and how they forsook the spiritual well-being of the millions of souls supposedly under their care.  

Church leaders cooperated with public health authorities’ radical policies and even became cheerleaders for the jab, which Francis said was an “act of love” to receive. Prelates giddily put the sacraments on hold while liquor stores, casinos, and restaurants stayed open, leaving the faithful exposed to all sorts of wickedness and temptations.

One of the most shameful and scandalous directives in the history of the Church occurred when every diocese in the country suspended public Masses in March 2020.
