CARLISLE, PA—Professor Stanley Brand was recently quoted in Politico. He weighed in on the merits of Senator Rand Paul’s threat to expedite prosecution of Dr. Anthony Fauci after the former COVID czar pleaded the Fifth during his Senate testimony.
Rand said he would go to the attorney general in his attempt at holding Fauci in contempt of Congress. “This is just another example of boys gone wild, tearing loose from the mores of procedure, regular order, constitutional doctrine to vindicate some political vendetta. And it’s going to fail like all the others have failed,” Brand is quoted as saying.
