House Republicans Pressure Attorney General Pam Bondi to Sue Fauci and Others

House Republicans are urging U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi to file a lawsuit against Dr. Anthony Fauci and others, accusing them of conspiring to undermine former President Donald Trump. The pressure follows allegations that Fauci misled Congress about U.S. funding for gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, which some claim is linked to the origins of COVID-19.

Senator Rand Paul has formally referred Fauci to the Department of Justice for a criminal investigation based on newly released emails.

Republicans are also demanding prosecution of Democratic officials like New York Attorney General Letitia James and certain mayors for offering sanctuary to undocumented immigrants, which they say is politically motivated against Trump.

Bondi has faced criticism over releasing heavily redacted documents related to Jeffrey Epstein, with accusations of lacking transparency.

These developments underscore ongoing partisan disputes over the pandemic’s origins and the legal accountability of public officials.
