| Subject: Rand Paul on fellow libertarian Amash's impeachment call: Russia probe was 'un-libertarian' Thu May 30, 2019 9:34 pm | |
| ... Paul, R-Ky., said on "America's Newsroom" Thursday that he takes the opposite view from Amash, seeing the origins of the Russia investigation as being "un-libertarian." He explained that the powers, specifically FISA surveillance, utilized in the FBI counterintelligence probe are the kind that libertarians have long warned could be abused by the government.
"I see an abuse of power from Comey, Clapper, Brennan, from all these guys," Paul said. "I think they took this great power we entrusted with them to spy on foreigners and they directed it against Americans for partisan reasons. So, I think this has to be investigated and I think it’s wrong for any Republican to think, 'Oh gosh, this is a legitimate investigation.' I think it’s a very partisan investigation." Paul then said he does not see any other Republicans joining with Democrats' "partisan" impeachment push.
