Dr. Anthony Fauci, the U.S. scientist who helped lead the nation's COVID-19 pandemic response, is facing off with a Republican senator probing the origins of the coronavirus. Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky subpoenaed Fauci to appear Wednesday before a Senate committee, part of Paul's yearslong accusations that the now-retired infectious disease expert had lied about the pandemic. Fauci has called that “preposterous” in prior hearings and his lawyers likewise call the allegations “absolutely baseless.” Many scientists believe the coronavirus likely jumped from animals to people in nature. Paul champions a theory that it may have leaked from a laboratory.
The Washington, D.C. Metropolitan Police’s crime statistics collection experienced a “prolonged, systemic breakdown of its internal control system,” according to a report released Tuesday by the city’s inspector general, which reviewed the department’s process after accusations by the federal government that figures were manipulated. The investigation, requested in December by Mayor Muriel Bowser, reviewed MPD crime data from 2015 through 2025. While the report did not indicate any fraud or intentionality in the flaws in the crime stats collection, it recommended a series of steps meant to ensure accuracy in the data gathering going forward.
