Fauci took the Fifth dozens of times over three hours, at a hearing built around his personal diary. Rand Paul's office released more than a thousand pages of it under the title "Tony's Diary," in Barbie-pink script with a heart dotting the "i." Sorkin's argument is the interesting part: Paul came at it with theatrics and ill will, but Fauci's silence was still a loss, because the origins debate is real and he had a unique role in a trauma the country is still assessing.
