Did we make the right decisions? Mistakes in public policy often do, if leaders can set aside their egos long enough to seize it. On a rare day off this week, I watched the July 29 Senate hearing with Dr. Anthony Fauci in its entirety. Fauci had every constitutional right to remain silent, and invoking that right is not an admission of guilt. The more than 1,000 pages of private journals released before the hearing show why the questions before the committee mattered.
