When Dr. Anthony Fauci appeared before the Senate last week, the biggest story wasn’t merely that he invoked the Fifth Amendment 111 times. That reversal comes as newly released Fauci files, declassified documents and congressional investigations show an increasingly troubling picture of how Americans were misled during the COVID-19 pandemic. Meanwhile, Americans were expected to accept policies that defied common sense:Masks required while walking to a restaurant table, but unnecessary once seated. Today, the question is no longer whether Fauci made mistakes. The question is whether Americans were denied an honest scientific debate while those policies were being imposed.
