A Senate panel says it has obtained a copy of Anthony Fauci’s phone from the Covid-19 era, according to the reported development. The acquisition comes as lawmakers consider a contempt vote involving Fauci, placing the device at the center of an ongoing congressional inquiry.
Reports have described the item as Fauci’s Covid-era cellphone or HHS-issued iPhone. The available information does not specify what data or communications the Senate panel received, how the copy was obtained, or whether investigators have begun publicly discussing its contents.
The development is expected to factor into the panel’s consideration of whether further action is warranted. The reports do not indicate the outcome of any contempt vote or provide additional details about the Senate investigation.
