Aaron Rodgers: Fauci a ‘coward’ and a ‘criminal’ for taking the Fifth

Rodgers said Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment more than 100 times at a Senate hearing and accused ESPN of giving the issue too little coverage.

  • During a live appearance on The Pat McAfee Show at Steelers training camp in Latrobe, NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers criticized Dr. Anthony Fauci's July Senate testimony regarding COVID-19 origins.
  • Rodgers specifically targeted Fauci's use of the Fifth Amendment during a Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee hearing, where Republicans alleged Fauci helped fund lab research leading to the pandemic.
  • Calling Fauci an "absolute coward," Rodgers claimed he "pleaded over a hundred times at the White House" regarding the 111 responses Fauci gave during the hearing.
