Sen. Rand Paul’s son erupts in drunken tirade against ‘gays and the Jews’
NY Post ^ | 05/13/2026 | Josh Christenson

The adult son of Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) launched a vile antisemitic and homophobic tirade at Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY) at a DC bar Tuesday night, saying at one point that the Iran war was “about the gays and the Jews, and I hate them both, and I don’t care if they die.”

In a phone conversation recounting the evening, Lawler told The Post that he was sitting at a popular DC bar with a friend and a reporter for NOTUS, which first revealed the incident involving William Paul.

“So Rand Paul’s f—ing son is sitting next to us at the at the bar … And he just like chimes in on our conversation, f—ing drunk and belligerent, and then starts going off about, you know, if [Rep. Thomas] Massie [R-Ky.] loses [his primary], it’s because of my people,” Lawler recalled.

“I’m like, ‘What people?’ He goes, ‘Jews,’ and I’m like, ‘Do you think I’m Jewish? … I’m Irish-Italian Catholic, buddy,’” the Hudson Valley lawmaker went on.

“He’s like, ‘Wait, you’re not Jewish?’” Lawler recalled the younger Paul asking, to which the lawmaker said he replied: “And even if I was, what’s the problem?”

“And then he got into the Middle East, and he was talking about, like, us trying to steal Iran’s land for the Jews and steal the West Bank, and I’m like, ‘What are you talking about?’”

At that point, William Paul said: “This war, it’s all about the gays and the Jews, and I hate them both, and I don’t care if they die.”

Reps for Paul’s Senate office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Talk like that from his son could curl dad’s hair. Oops. Too late.

I guess being an idiot doesn’t skip a generation.

“about the gays and the Jews, and I hate them both, and I don’t care if they die.”

Not caring is part of being a Libertarian, isn't it?

"Libertarians believe individuals should be free to act as they choose...a concept known as the Non-Aggression Principle (NAP). They oppose regulation of "victimless crimes" such as ...and offensive speech." Wikipedia.

As a non Libertarian I think that speech was offensive.

I stopped watching Gutfeld because after grudgingly accepting that Kat Timpf is one, I wrote the show off when someone on FR told me Tyrus is also a Libertarian. Boycott.

So, he got obnoxiously drunk and stupid at a bar. It’s not a good look but I’m sure it happens somewhere every day. The dude is an adult, Ron can’t babysit him.

Are they big ‘L’ or little ‘l’?

I know Tyrus is a Trump supporter.

In other news, Mike Lawler likes to indiscriminately drop f-bombs.

This is Rep. Mike Lawler’s version of events It may be right, but I don’t know that. I don’t think a discussion at a bar should be shared with a reporter or be printed for broader distribution. Might as well ask what the Kardashians, whoever they are, think.

You know what I meant. A lot of people hold some libertarian views but aren’t idealogues or party members.

Libertarians are total globalists which to me is their biggest fault. IMO none are Patriots.
