New Dr. Fauci Investigation Launched By State Attorney After He Pleads The Fifth 111 Times In Senate Testimony – Ask Dr. Drew – Ep 651
Dr. Fauci’s preemptive pardon shields him from federal charges – but states can still launch their own investigations. Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment 111 times before the Senate Homeland Security Committee on July 29, declining to answer Sen. Rand Paul’s questions about COVID-19, gain of function research, and Fauci’s diary entries about the pandemic’s origins. Within hours of Fauci’s (lack of) testimony, Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier announced a state investigation – and soon more states may launch investigations of their own. Michael Gates, candidate for California Attorney General, joins to discuss whether a state AG could pursue Fauci, and the medical watchdog organization calling on the American Medical Association to “explicitly condemn transgender genital surgeries on minors.” Investigative journalist Jordan Schachtel of The Dossier argues Deborah Birx should face the same committees as Dr. Fauci, since she holds no pardon. Townhall News Editor Jeff Charles weighs in on Gavin Newsom’s resurfaced affair and how it could affect the election, and Zohran Mamdani publishing NYC property-owner data tied to a proposed pied-a-terre tax. Jordan Schachtel is an investigative journalist and the publisher of The Dossier, covering institutional accountability and public health policy. Follow at https://dossier.today/ Jeff Charles is a journalist and News Editor for Townhall.com. He is also the author of the novel “The Grinning Golly Murders” and his work has appeared on RedState, Daily Caller, and his Substack, Chasing Liberty.

Dr. Fauci Faces Senate Hearing On COVID Origins, Pleads The 5th For Every Question – Ask Dr. Drew – Ep 650
“On the advice of counsel, I respectfully decline to answer based upon my rights under the 5th Amendment to the Constitution,” Dr. Fauci told the Senate and the American people, in response to every question about his involvement in funding dangerous gain of function research in Wuhan, China, and new revelations found in his COVID-era diary released by Senator Rand Paul. “What does the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution say?” Senator Moreno asked Fauci. “On the advice of counsel, I respectfully decline to answer based upon my rights under the 5th Amendment to the Constitution,” Fauci replied, again. Dr. Fauci also pleaded the fifth about communications with Dr. David Morens, the Ecohealth Alliance, the millions of dollars in cash rewards he received in prizes – and even about the color tie he was wearing. Dr. Peter McCullough and Jeffrey Tucker join Dr. Drew to react to Dr. Fauci’s hearing, the bombshells in Sen. Paul’s new documents, and if Dr. Fauci will ever tell the full truth about the pandemic. Dr. Peter McCullough is a renowned internist, cardiologist, and epidemiologist, and serves as Chief Scientific Officer of The Wellness Company. He is co-author of the New York Times Bestseller “Vaccines: Mythology, Ideology, and Reality” and of “The Courage to Face COVID-19.” Follow at https://x.com/P_McCulloughMD Jeffrey Tucker is founder and president of the Brownstone Institute, a 501c3 nonprofit focused on public health, economics, and the philosophical foundations of freedom, with a particular focus on post-pandemic rebuilding.

Andrew Yang: Kamala Harris Says She’s Running for President In 2028 + Dr. Kelly Victory on Dr. Anthony Fauci’s COVID Diary Revelations w/ Tom Renz – Ask Dr. Drew – Ep 649
“Well, this might be unwelcome news,” writes Andrew Yang, “but Kamala Harris is telling people in California that she is running for President again.” Yang, an entrepreneur who ran for President in 2020 as a Democrat, says his sources tell him Kamala’s team is quietly laying groundwork for her to run in the next election – and why the DNC announcing that South Carolina “would be the first primary state in the 2028 Democratic primary” is a clue. “She showed up to a political event last weekend that was a pretty clear step in that direction,” says Yang. “As you might be able to tell, I think this whole thing is a disaster.” Andrew Yang joins Dr. Drew to discuss the next big Presidential election, AI’s impact on jobs, and why he still champions UBI after famously proposing the Freedom Dividend to grant $1,000 per month to every American adult. Dr. Drew and Andrew also speak about their experience after competing together on FOX’s new reality show Nation’s Dumbest. Attorney Tom Renz returns to speak about a “betrayal” of MAHA after the CDC “gave Pfizer $1.24 billion for mRNA COVID vaccines including jabs for kids.” Dr. Kelly Victory reports on explosive new details from Dr. Anthony Fauci’s COVID-19 diaries, recently released by Sen. Rand Paul in advance of Dr. Fauci’s congressional hearing on July 29, 2026. 「 SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS 」 • FATTY15 – The future of essential fatty acids is here!
