Rand Paul, R-Ky., plans to refer the Senate Homeland Security and Finance Committees' report on their investigation into Hunter Biden's overseas business dealings to the Department of Justice later this week, he told "The Story" Wednesday. "I think riding on Air Force Two and doing business is illegal ... and probably a felony," Paul told host Martha MacCallum.

A seemingly irritated Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease, scolded Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) at a congressional hearing on Wednesday after the senator claimed that COVID-19 cases might not be rising in New York because of herd immunity. Fauci, the country's top infectious disease doctor, told Paul he was wrong to make the suggestion, and he said Paul had also been wrong in other public comments about the concept of herd immunity. "No, you've misconstrued that, senator, and you've done that repeatedly in the past," Fauci said. Fauci also appeared to single out...

The Senate failed Thursday to advance a Republican proposal to address the health and economic crises caused by the coronavirus pandemic, four months after House Democrats passed their $3 trillion plan. But the narrower Senate bill could help Republican senators in tough reelection races by giving them a rebuttal to Democratic challengers attacking their delayed response. The vote, 52 to 47, did not meet the 60-vote threshold. All Democrats and Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul voted in opposition to the bill.

Labor Day has passed, and in most years, the entire country would now be back to school. Kids would be learning, catching up with old friends, and swapping stories from the summer. Teachers would have decorated and readied themselves for a year of struggles and smiles, learning and community. Traffic is always heaviest this time of year, because of school buses full of kids, and parents going to work, returning from summer vacations. But in far too many places, including much of Kentucky, this is not the reality. There are no buses, no kids in classrooms, and few smiles. It...

Sen. Rand Paul: "While the recommendation on vaccines may be appropriate, I think each individual needs to make their decision." Video...

Speaking on Fox News Saturday, Senator Rand Paul demanded that an investigation be started into where money given to groups such as Black Lives Matter is being spent, and if it is being used to spark violence in major US cities. “The question is, who is financing this and who is flying them around?” Paul asked. “It really is a federal crime to incite riot and to fly people around to instigate violence. And I think that’s what’s happening,” the Senator urged. “And yes, we’ve got to get to the bottom of this one person at a time, and once...

A Florida man who was “in the vicinity” of Sen. Rand Paul after the Republican National Convention has been charged with assault for allegedly attacking a DC police officer, according to a report. Brennen Sermon, 27, of Orlando was arraigned in DC Superior Court on one count of assault on a law enforcement officer, according to Fox 5 DC. The cop was holding a police line at 14th and F Street NW about 12:30 a.m. Aug. 28 when the suspect allegedly kicked his bicycle and fled. When the officer caught up with Sermon, he allegedly punched him in the face, requiring stitches, according...

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) told Breitbart News exclusively on Thursday that the leftist mob that surrounded him on his way out of the White House after President Donald Trump’s Republican National Convention (RNC) speech last week, along with other leftist violence in Democrat-controlled cities, could be a game-changer in this election. Asked to reflect on what happened to him and his wife Kelley Paul last Thursday, video of which Breitbart News captured on scene, Paul said that rioters and people who break the law will continue to do so until they face consequences for their actions. “People who act this...

On Wednesday’s “Hugh Hewitt Show,” Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) stated that Washington, D.C.’s home rule should be taken away if the city can’t keep calm and peace in the streets. Host Hugh Hewitt asked, “Should home rule be taken away from D.C. and returned to federal control if they can’t provide protection on the streets of the capital, senator?” Paul responded, “Yes. D.C. is a unique thing set up by the Constitution, taken from the states. It’s not a state. It doesn’t have states’ rights. And a lot of the decisions are made by Congress. But I think really, if...

Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., joined the "The Fox News Rundown" Wednesday to discuss President Trump's visit to Kenosha, Wis., amid violence in Democrat-run cities that he blames on supporters of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, who he said likes the chaos and would rather this be his campaign. The Republican senator who was attacked by a mob on video after Trump's acceptance speech outside the White House Thursday, calls on the former vice president and his running mate, Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., to denounce the people committing acts of violence. "This is their base," Paul told host Jessica Rosenthal. "These...

It has been five days since Senator Rand Paul and his wife were harassed and threatened outside of the White House after President Trump’s acceptance speech. And while most of the attention has been on Senator Kamala Harris’ appalling silence in response to her colleague’s attack, some are wondering why Mitt Romney isn’t out there in the spotlight every day denouncing it as “appalling.”

A super PAC founded by Clinton aides invited the thugs who harassed Senator Rand Paul and his wife after the Republican National Convention at the White House on August 27, 2020. Other prominent Republicans exiting the RNC were also confronted by a leftist rage mob organized by the Party Majority PAC, as well as the Revolutionary Communist Party‘s front group “Refuse Fascism,” whose cult-like leader Bob Avakian endorsed Joe Biden earlier this month, and a Democratic Socialists of America-aligned group called Shut Down DC.

Following the death of George Floyd in May, a bipartisan national consensus emerged that serious criminal justice reforms were needed. This put emphasis on an issue that already had broad spectrum support. Polling shows that a clear majority of Americans support reforms such as ending “no-knock” search warrants, limiting police use of chokeholds, eliminating the civil liability shield for abusive police officers, mandating dashboard and body cameras, and more. In fact, even a majority of police officers support these reforms. So why hasn’t Congress actually accomplished anything? Well, the disturbing saga that just played out featuring Sen. Rand Paul reveals...

You really have to watch the video to see how scary Thursday night turned for Sen. Rand Paul and his companions — surrounded by scores of angry, ignorant goons threatening to kill them. It was one of several mobs of Black Lives Matter “protesters” that freely roamed the streets of our nation’s capital during and after President Trump’s acceptance speech at the White House, besieging attendees as they left. One crew surrounded Paul (R-Ky.), along with his wife and two others, as well as two cops — scores of people furiously screaming in their faces, threatening to kill them and...

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) has called on the FBI to investigate allegations that violent Black Lives Matter mobs are being "paid" to incite riots in America's city streets.The senator says he believes "crazed mobs" are being "hired" to travel from out of town and across state lines to instigate unrest and rioting.

Thursday night felt like being in a terrifying dystopian novel. The mob swarmed me and my husband, Sen. Rand Paul, in a tight circle, screaming expletives, threats, and shouting, "Say her name." We rushed up to two police officers, and I believe that is the only thing that kept us from being knocked to the ground. Even pressed against the officers, we were greatly outnumbered.
