Yes you are wrong.
A senator cannot direct the DOJ to charge anyone with a crime. That would be a blatant breach of the principle of separation of powers.
It's fucking hilarious that you believe that this is possible. Holy shit.
OK, so what Rand Paul doing by referring Fauci to the DOJ for criminal charges?
What happens? Do you actually know, or do you just take pleasure in belittling people who are not as smart as you?
It's posturing to make him look relevant to ignorant people.
Are you actually aware of the concept of Separation of Powers?
Do you think that some random senator is able to order the DOJ to charge someone with a crime?
Seriously?
So lying to Congress is illegal, but "who cares?!" ...because no one can do anything about it ... is what you are saying?
i.e., no one has ever been punished for lying to Congress??
Seriously?
What makes you think I believe any of this nonsense?
Or do you want to know how someone can get prosecuted for lying too Congress? Are you just ignorant about how this works?
Do you think that the normall process is that a Senator forces the DOJ to charge a person?
Do seriously want Senators to have that kind of power?
