Sen. Rand Paul revealed that Washington prosecutors declined his request for a probe of who funded the protesters who gathered outside the White House and attacked him, his wife and others as they left an event over the summer.
In a tweet posted Monday, Paul (R-Ky.) wrote, “The DC U.S. Attorney today confirmed to me that they will not pursue an investigation of who is funding the thugs who attacked my wife and me and sent a DC police officer to the hospital.”
The Kentucky senator, along with scores of other GOP lawmakers and other guests, were attacked following the second night of the Republican National Convention, which President Trump moved to the White House as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.
The event, which took place in late August, occurred as protests had swept the nation following the police killings of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor.
On that August night when Paul and the other lawmakers were attacked, crowds also got violent with officers, whom the senator credited with keeping them alive during the incident.

I feel horrified by what Rand has been through.
First his crazy neighbor, then seeing his friend Steve Scalise get shot, then this etc...
Rand Paul has the patience of a saint.
Imagine if Nancy Pelosi was attacked. Oh boy..the investigations that would ensue
There is no rule of law and if Trump does not win it will get even worse. At that point there will have to be covert, vigilante justice on all the domestic enemies.
Need to get the DA’s name out there. Who was the Obama suck that declined to prosecute? Need to get the name out there where it can be mocked and shamed.
Banana Republic
Even worse? Lol....
When Hitler took office, things got EVEN WORSE for Jews in Europe.
There a quite a few more things beyond mocking and shaming. Let’s get the name.
I’m not here to play word games.
It is perfectly acceptable to treat republicans anyway you want, including intimation and beating. But if you even look crosswise at a dem or member of the protected classes, it is a capital offense and they will prosecute and punish you to fullest extent possible. Welcome to bidens america.

Divers weights, unjust measures.
Yet another reminder to stay out of the Blue areas if you possibly can.
This speaks volumes.
Remember, you can’t breathe on them in DC or you will be arrested.
“First his crazy neighbor, then seeing his friend Steve Scalise get shot, then this etc...”
He should write a book.
You missed the humor.
I suggest that we cannot quite fathom how insidious these George Soros led commies may go in the coming months or years. They’ve promised a scorched earth... I tend to believe them.
