A federal judge has ordered Dr. Anthony Fauci and other Biden officials
be deposed as part of a lawsuit against the Biden administration,
alleging that the government colluded with social media companies to
censor free speech related to the coronavirus and other controversial
topics.
According to a court order from the United States District Court for
the Western District of Louisiana, U.S. District Judge Terry Doughty
concluded that Fauci’s high-profile public comments have made him a key figure in the lawsuit from the Republican attorneys general of
Louisiana and Missouri who allege that "collusion" between the Biden administration and social media companies to censor coronavirus-related
speech that could be damaging to the White House.
"Plaintiffs argue that even if Dr. Fauci can prove he never
communicated with social-media platforms about censorship, there are
compelling reasons that suggest Dr. Fauci has acted through
intermediaries, and acted on behalf of others, in procuring the
social-media censorship of credible scientific opinions," Doughty,
appointed by former President Trump, wrote. "Plaintiffs argue that even
if Dr. Fauci acted indirectly or as an intermediary on behalf of
others, it is still relevant to Plaintiffs’ preliminary injunction
motion. The Court agrees."
