Yep.

Fauci accuses Rand Paul of having an "unhinged obsession with calling for my prosecution" and of making "repeated slanderous comments," then says "although it pains me to do so... under advice of my attorneys, I will invoke my right under the 5th Amendment to refrain from answering your questions."

I guess, more important, is what is taught in our schools. Let's all work to protect that. ...in my notes, When Christopher Columbus "discovered" America, the world was 22% Christian...

Thanks for the article. Most Americans, sadly, will never get to visit the Smithsonian in person, I'm sure there is lots available on line now though. Eight graders around here do get to visit Washington, D.C. but I'm sure many don't have the time or take the time to study much during their trip.
