Sen. Rand Paul refused to speak Thursday with a federal judge whose son was shot by a man who ambushed their New Jersey home almost two years.
US District Judge Esther Salas, whose 20-year-old son, Daniel, was killed in the attack, carried out by a disgruntled attorney who had appeared before her in court, tried to stop the Kentucky Republican outside a hearing.
She wanted to persuade him to stop blocking legislation that would prohibit the publication of the private information of federal judges, such as home addresses, vehicle information and other data that could put them at risk of retaliation.
...
Paul says he supports the bill but is insisting it be changed so the privacy protections would be extended to members of Congress. He has refused to allow it to pass by unanimous consent...
CNN witnessed Salas' effort to confront Paul in the Dirksen Senate Office Building. He shook her hand as he appeared, but he then kept walking down a long hall, saying that if she wanted to talk to him, she would have to make an appointment with his office.
The judge replied, "Senator, you won't talk to me?" and he repeated, "If you've got an appointment. Call the office, please."

It won't work. He will never, ever back down!
How many demoKKKrats have met with the families of those killed by illegals allowed into the country due to their American hating policies??
I missed this part:
“She wanted to persuade him to stop blocking legislation that would prohibit the publication of the private information of federal judges, such as home addresses, vehicle information and other data that could put them at risk of retaliation.”
The irony of this is, at this point in time, is incredible.
How many members of the press do?
Murders
Rapes
Child molestation & worse
There’s a long list of things that just fall off the radar
because the media will not address them.
If it’s a negative on the topic of illegal immigration,
it becomes invisible, unless the public spreads the word.
“She wanted to persuade him to stop blocking legislation that would prohibit the publication of the private information of federal judges, such as home addresses, vehicle information and other data that could put them at risk of retaliation.
”
There are laws on the books protecting SC justices and those are clearly NOT enforced when perpetrators are libtards 🤪
Doesn’t matter how many laws are passed when corrupt democrats only selectively enforce them. FBI barely lifts a finger against their libtard buddies
BTW- this judge was appointed by Obama
So she tried to ambush him outside his office building...
No on privacy laws for a select few. Yes, to ones that apply to ALL of us.
“persuade him to stop blocking legislation that would prohibit the publication of the private information”
There is no doubt in my mind this is a completely misleading article.
He did not refuse to speak - he requested an office meeting to speak. Different issue.
Paul is in favor of the bill - but wants the protections to also apply to him.
Given that he was personally attacked and injured by a crazed democrat.
Well.
The reporter has this article all twisted up.
No sense of irony in these people. In fact, no sense at all.
What would happen if Rand Paul asked for a meeting with a federal judge on a matter before that judge’s court?
Libs like to intimidate in person. This lady is a fed judge? Why wouldn’t she make an appointment other than try to shame him in public.
and biden has not met with kyle rittenhouse who would have been murdered if he hadn’t had a gun to protect himself with- Shall we from now on start all articles about Joe like “Joe biden, who refused to meet with a poor young fella who was almost murdered” etc?
[[So she tried to ambush him outside his office building...]]
rand should get a restraining order against her-
Paul’s request is quite reasonable given that he was personally targeted by the left in the Deep State sanctioned riots during the summer of 2020.
When did Rand Paul kill this guy anyway?
From an outlet that applauded the theft then release of Donald Trump’s taxes and were only sad they didn’t receive them first.
Last time I checked, Rand Paul is Senator of Kentucky.
NJ has two Senators that they can bug.
It’s not clear he even knew who she was, and since when do you have a right to accost someone in a hallway and demand a debate on a piece of legislation or anything else? The woman isn’t even a journalist. Meanwhile, Pelosi gets away with refusing to answer questions from journalists about attacks on pregnancy crisis centers.
