  • ‘I’m Not Letting Anything Pass’: Rand Paul Vows To Hold Back Biden Nominees Until COVID Docs Released

    Republican Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul vowed Thursday on Fox Business not to let any of President Joe Biden’s nominees through unless documents pertaining COVID-19 are released first. Paul said on “Mornings with Maria” he’s been trying for three years to obtain records relating to COVID-19 and grants given to the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Paul said the U.S. is still sending taxpayer money to the Chinese “Academy of Military Medical Research,” whose scientists are members of the Chinese military. “That’s inexcusable,” Paul said, adding that it wasn’t just China covering up the lab leak but also the U.S. government. “I...
  • Sen. Paul unveils 'conservative alternative' to Biden-McCarthy debt ceiling agreement: 'Bold actions must be taken'

    Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) announced Tuesday that he will introduce the "conservative alternative" to the debt ceiling agreement reached by President Joe Biden and House Speaker Kevin McCarthy. What are the details? Like other Republicans, Paul believes that McCarthy made significant concessions that essentially kick the can down the road and do not solve the problem of government spending. Paul, therefore, said he will propose an amendment to the so-called "Fiscal Responsibility Act" that would raise the debt ceiling only $500 billion in order to return to the negotiating table. His proposal thus solves the immediate problem of the U.S....

    Sen. Rand Paul’s heated opposition to a TikTok ban startled Capitol Hill last week, but you could look at it as a straightforward case of following the money, according to insiders – in this case, the money of a major GOP donor who has $33 billion on the line. The gentleman from Kentucky – who has made his career partly as a China hawk – surprised colleagues on the Senate floor last week when he blocked Missouri Republican Sen. Josh Hawley’s hopes for fast-tracked legislation to ban TikTok. “Speech is protected whether you like it or not,” Rand said, jumping...

    Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul warned ‘corrupt’ Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg that he could be forced out of office and face arrest after new evidence surfaced in former president Donald Trump’s case. “Wonder if DA Bragg remembers Durham DA Mike Nifong, who withheld exculpatory DNA tests on the Duke lacrosse players,” Paul said. “He was subsequently forced out of office, disbarred, and convicted of contempt of court,” the Republican Senator added, referring to Nifong, the district attorney in the 2006 case accusing Duke University lacrosse players of rape before they were exonerated and escaped jail. In a separate statement...

    Hawley, Paul clash on floor over TikTok ban: Sens. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) and Rand Paul (R-Ky.) clashed Wednesday afternoon over the future of TikTok in a spirited exchange on the Senate floor that shows disagreements over how to regulate the controversial app cross party lines in Congress. The two conservative stars butted heads when Hawley attempted to gain unanimous consent to pass his bill to prohibit TikTok from operating in the United States and ban commercial activity with TikTok’s parent company, ByteDance. Paul immediately slapped down Hawley’s request. “There are two main reasons why we might not want to do...

    As congressional Republicans increasingly clamor for a ban on the popular video-sharing app TikTok, at least one is speaking out against the idea: Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky. In an op-ed for the Louisville Courier Journal, Paul argued that seeking a ban on TikTok was not just bad policy, but bad politics. "Congressional Republicans have come up with a national strategy to permanently lose elections for a generation," he wrote. According to TikTok, the app now has 150 million active monthly users in the United States.

    Republican Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul grilled Moderna CEO Stéphane Bancel on Wednesday over whether the shot is safe for teen boys, citing an increased risk of myocarditis. Bancel testified before the Senate on raising the cost of COVID-19 vaccines. “Is there a higher incidence of myocarditis among adolescent males ages 16-24 after taking your vaccine?” Paul asked. “We care deeply about safety and we’re working closely with the CDC to –” “Pretty much a yes or no,” Paul interjected. “Is there a higher incidence of myocarditis among boys 16-24 after they take your vaccine?” “The data … has shown there’s...

    Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) on Tuesday suggested that the Manhattan district attorney “should be put in jail” amid anticipation that former President Trump could be hit with an indictment today as prosecutors probe payments made to adult-film star Stormy Daniels during Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign. “A Trump indictment would be a disgusting abuse of power. The DA should be put in jail,” Paul tweeted.

    Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), the ranking member on the Senate Homeland Security panel, abruptly walked out of a committee markup Wednesday morning after clashing with the panel’s chairman, Sen. Gary Peters (D-Mich.), over amendments. Paul vented his frustration over Peters’s use of procedural tactics to effectively shield Democrats on the committee from voting on Republican amendments to the Fire Grants and Safety Act. Peters offered second-degree amendments to the Republican-sponsored amendments that completely gutted their content. At one point, Paul suggested that all the Republican members walk out of the committee meeting. “If this is the way you’re going to...

    Adam Kokesh, an American who stars on KGB-TV, otherwise known as RT or Russia Today television, staged a publicity stunt at the Jefferson Memorial on May 28 and is now complaining about his arrest for “dancing.” His video is getting attention from the media, while his followers are insisting that he was the victim of harsh police tactics. But an examination of the video of his arrest shows that the event was a planned provocation by professional agitators arranged in coordination with Medea Benjamin of Code Pink, who was also arrested. Kokesh anchors the “Adam Vs. The Man” TV show...

    The Republican senator wanted to make a point about America’s COVID policies compared to the rest of the world. On Thursday, Sen. Rand Paul wanted to know if the dean of Johns Hopkins School of Nursing was ‘pro-choice.’ ‘Are you pro-choice in regards to patients making individualized medical choices?” Paul asked Dr. Sarah Szanton. “Broadly, thank you, yes,” Szanton replied. Paul was beginning a larger discussion to note that other nations have enjoyed more medical freedoms than most Americans have had. “Are you aware that your university doesn’t allow choice with regard to vaccination, that you require all of your...

    Senator Rand Paul warned Wednesday that over classification of information is being used to avoid oversight and institute cover ups, such as regarding the origins of COVID.Appearing on Newsmax TV’s “Eric Bolling The Balance,” Paul explained “I think there’s an overclassification problem here. Everything’s classified. And in all likelihood, what we’ll find is this is not some sort of organized scheme to have the secrets to the nuclear weapon in [Biden’s] Corvette. I think it’s more likely than not that we’ve classified so many documents that it’s hard to find documents that are not classified.”He continued, “The one problem with...

    Ron Paul is a political hero for me. A glorious voice against the folly of war. As Goldwater laid the foundations for Nixon and Reagan, I see the long-lasting Texas congressman as the guy who built the moral foundation on which the much more theatrical and pragmatic Donald Trump could build a presidency. Rand Paul doesn't seem to me be everything his father was in terms of innovative ideas. But he is very much his father's son. His good-looking, strategically oriented wife is part of the Libertarian EVOLution. God Bless Family. God Bless Freedom.
