No Indictments Issued
The lack of accountability for those responsible for actions related to the COVID-19 pandemic raises questions about the effectiveness of the Trump administration's Justice Department. Notably, no "COVID" criminal, including high-profile figures such as Dr. Fauci and political adversaries of former President Trump, have been indicted or compelled to testify before Congress. Furthermore, the long-awaited arrests of individuals on the infamous Epstein list have not materialized.
The answer to this conundrum may lie in the COVID-19 national emergency declaration, which was first enacted in 2020 and extended by the Trump administration. This emergency order expedited the approval and distribution of COVID-19 vaccines, including mRNA vaccines. However, the national emergency was not terminated until May 11, 2025, during the Biden administration.
The persistence of the emergency declaration during former President Trump's remaining tenure could potentially explain the lack of indictments of lower-tier "COVID" criminals and the hesitance to call high-profile figures, such as Fauci, to testify before Congress. Indicting these individuals or compelling them to testify may raise uncomfortable questions for Trump supporters, potentially causing controversy and public discontent.
Moreover, government officials who gained prominence during the "emergency," such as Fauci, Brix, Albert Bourla, and various state health officials, have not faced any legal repercussions for their actions during that period. Some argue that these individuals, who effectively acted as health authorities, should be held accountable for their decisions and actions, particularly if those decisions contributed to public harm.
The overall question of government accountability remains prominent as many Americans continue to question the efficiency and transparency of the federal government, especially during a time of national crisis. The end of emergency declarations will not necessarily lead to a decrease in government omnipresence or decreased tyranny, as seen with the proposed federally mandated REAL ID and the potential expansion of warrantless searches.
As we move forward, it is essential to critically examine the actions of government officials during times of crisis to ensure accountability and uphold the principles of democracy. By asking the difficult questions and demanding transparency, we can help prevent similar situations from arising in the future.
- The Trump administration's Justice Department's inability to indict or compel testimony from high-profile "COVID" figures like Dr. Fauci, despite the lack of accountability for those involved in the pandemic, might be linked to the political ramifications such actions could have for the former President and his supporters.
- The long-standing COVID-19 national emergency declaration, still persisting during the Trump administration, could have potentially dissuaded the Justice Department from indicting or compelling testimony from prominent figures like Dr. Fauci, as it could have stirred controversy and public discontent among Trump supporters.
