Fauci, former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, faced the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee on Wednesday and invoked the Fifth Amendment again and again. The open record is blunt: one hundred eleven refusals. No soft landing. America heard every one.

Left-wing cable still calls him “the science.” The science took the Fifth 111 times. Maybe update the lab coat.

Murrill did not treat the marathon as theater. She shared reporting noting that a federal pardon from former President Joe Biden (BIDENJ) does not automatically erase exposure under state law. Presidential paper covers offenses against the United States. State courts write their own docket. That distinction is why this story moves the politician ticker board beyond a single capital hearing — and why America-first power still runs through the states.

Murrill’s line: records, memory, and state courts

On X, Murrill put the charge in plain English: “Fauci lied.” She said Louisiana and Missouri had already deposed Fauci, that he claimed not to recall many key details of his own actions, and that contemporaneous records he kept are now surfacing. “Louisiana will join Alabama & Florida in investigating Fauci and whether he committed any other offenses that could be pursued in our State courts,” she added.

That is a sitting AG expanding a multi-state legal front. On PolitiCap, MURRIL owns the probe announcement. Players tracking virtual stakes in dibs (virtual DutchBud credits) can read the print: after a federal Fifth marathon, a state AG answered with a file number on the way.

Landry backs the stack; Florida and Alabama already in

Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry (LANDRJ) weighed in hard. As a former attorney general who, alongside then-Missouri AG Eric Schmitt (SCHMIE), deposed Fauci, Landry wrote that he is “happy to have Louisiana join Alabama and Florida.” Governor-level air cover matters. It tells the tape this is not a lone prosecutor chasing a headline — it is stacked American state power.

Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier (UTHMEJ) announced Thursday that his office would investigate Fauci after the Senate hearing, with “any and all potential violations of Florida law” under review. Sen. Tommy Tuberville (TUBERT), Republican of Alabama, told Fox News Digital that Fauci’s federal pardon does not shield him from state prosecutions because presidential pardons apply only to “offenses against the United States.” Tuberville, running for Alabama governor, said that if elected he would look into state accountability options and encouraged civil claims by Alabamians.

Stack the symbols: MURRIL, LANDRJ, UTHMEJ, TUBERT, SCHMIE, BIDENJ, and subject listing FAUCIA — a multi-state, multi-office cluster, not a cable segment that dies at the break.

Why the Fifth marathon reprices attention

Politi Market Cap on this site is a game measure of how much crowd attention and declared virtual stakes sit on a symbol. A former federal health chief taking the Fifth 111 times is pure attention fuel. A state AG answering with a formal investigation is the second candle. Together they form a classic accountability print: Congress could not force answers; states say they still can try under their own statutes.

PolitiCap is a civic participation layer — closed-loop credits, not cash-out, no claim a ticker is a security or a verdict. The board question is narrower: when the highest-profile pandemic official refuses to answer under oath federally, do American states still act like sovereigns? Louisiana’s open-record answer is yes. Federalism with a pulse — the design the coastal lecture circuit keeps underestimating.

What the source wire establishes, and what this desk will not invent:

• Murrill announced a Louisiana investigation after the Senate hearing.
• Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment 111 times before the Homeland Security panel.
• Murrill asserted he lied, cited prior Louisiana/Missouri depositions and newly discussed records, and said Louisiana joins Alabama and Florida.
• Landry publicly backed the move; Uthmeier’s Florida probe was already announced; Tuberville argued the Biden pardon does not cover state crimes.

What remains for courts and further open reporting — and is not asserted as proven here — includes any specific state charges, venue, timeline, or ultimate findings. Strength is not the same as a conviction. American power still runs through process, even when the process finally gets teeth.

Civic market tape and national scope

For players watching live quotes of political capital, the hierarchy is clear. BIDENJ owns the pardon in the legal frame. LANDRJ amplifies as governor. MURRIL opened Louisiana’s file. TUBERT and UTHMEJ extend the map into Alabama and Florida. FAUCIA sits under the microscope. Pretty-links keep every officeholder on the tape.

The dual IPO calendar still points at global headliners on 11.11.2026, but domestic accountability weeks do not wait. Play credits on the virtual floor can reprice around any officeholder who owns a hard public act. Opening a state investigation after a Fifth marathon is about as hard as it gets without a grand jury bill. America’s strength has always included stubborn state independence — and this week it showed up with a docket number on the way.
