Following the Food and Drug Administration's warning advising people not to take the horse dewormer drug ivermectin, Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., claimed the agency refused to study the drug as a COVID-19 treatment due to hatred for former President Donald Trump.
At a meeting Friday in Kentucky, Paul reportedly told constituents that the FDA was refusing to research drugs like ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine, an anti-malarial drug that was touted by Trump while he was in office.
“The hatred for Trump deranged these people so much, they’re unwilling to objectively study it,” Paul said.
“So someone like me that’s in the middle on it, I can’t tell you because they will not study ivermectin. They will not study hydroxychloroquine without the taint of their hatred for Donald Trump.”
Paul reportedly spent a majority of the meeting criticizing mask and vaccine mandates. However, he did advise elderly people to get vaccinated but noted it was a personal choice.
“I think I’m in the middle ground of the vaccines,” Paul said. “CNN invites me on all the time. They have announcers calling me an ‘ass’ on TV. Then they have doctors saying I’m thoroughly anti-vaccine. You heard me, I’m not against the vaccine. I’ve already recommended if you’re at risk to take it. It’s still your choice if it’s a free country.”
Paul’s comments come after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued an official health advisory warning of the consequences if someone ingests ivermectin.
“Clinical effects of ivermectin overdose include gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Overdoses are associated with hypotension and neurologic effects such as decreased consciousness, confusion, hallucinations, seizures, coma, and death,” the statement read.
Paul, who was an ophthalmologist prior to his career in politics, has pushed back against mask mandates and even had heated exchanges with infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci over the matter.
Could have started with this.

Because they are unthinking sheep who do what they are told.
“Paul’s comments come after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued an official health advisory warning of the consequences if someone ingests ivermectin.”
NOTE how they SMOOTHLY transition from the above “if someone ingests ivermectin” to the below “of ivermectin overdose”. By that standard is there ANY DRUG AT ALL that is safe, considering that anyone can overdose on anything, and die, even water.
“Clinical effects of ivermectin overdose include gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea.
Filthy lucre is why the medical establishment fought ivermectin and chloroquine. Isn’t it always about money?
But we all know that's really going on. As usual, it's all about the money. A disease that's easily treatable with cheap off-patent generic drugs that cost pennies? We can't have that. No, we need diseases that can only be treated with very expensive patented new drugs.
Nope, sorry, he’s wrong. Gotta keep saying this, people need to realize what’s really going on. Yes they hate Trump, but that’s not what is behind this, it’s just a convenient excuse.
These so called “vaccines” were released under the emergency Use Authorization (EUA). EUA specifies that if a known, effective treatment is available, the experimental “vaccines” cannot be used.
Therefore big pharma can’t make billion$ selling their “vaccines” to the government.
If the CDC admits both Ivermectin and Hydrochlorquine are viable, effective treatments, and both do prevent and cure kung flu, then the average person can be treated cheaply and effectively at home, without a hospital stay, and in most cases can even prevent it altogether for about the cost of an office visit or less. Or the cost of an office visit plus the necessary prescription, both are cheap and have been available for many years, including for humans.
Hydrochloroquine has been used for many years to prevent malaria, Ivermectin has been used to eliminate parasites in animals and humans for at least 30 years, maybe more. Side effects of both are few and minimal, overdoses rare.
IT’s not about hate for Trump, it’s about making boatloads of money. And Rand should know that.
“For years commie democrats have been hidden from view in the swamp and that allowed them lie to themselves and live a delusion that they are doing the right thing, that they are good people. They are not good people and they have been forced to see themselves for who they are and the bad things they have done. For this, they hate Donald Trump and they hate themselves.”
That’s a real insight.
deflecting...the real reason is the incestuous relationship between the FDA and the pharmaceutical industry
The useful idiots are indoctrinated and well trained to take their cues from the media where orders come from way up above their paygrade telling them what to focus on.
Most of them never stop to ask themselves why they “believe” what they think they know. Most of them are pretty high on the narcissistic scale so lack introspection and have a high need to protect their self image as being smarter and more righteous than the great unwashed of flyover country.
Trump had a bad habit of puncturing their self congratulatory security bubble.
FLCCC. It’s by weight and in the latest I-MASK protocol published this last week.
