On Thursdays broadcast of the Fox Business Networks Kudlow, Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) argued Congress shouldnt have been involved in resolving a potential rail strike or labor contracts in general. And that Congress getting involved will result in both sides expecting Congress to get involved and members in Congress who didnt have time to look at all the details shouldnt override the will of workers.

Paul said, [T]he reason I voted present was sort of an old-fashioned notion that I dont think Congress should be involved with contracts, saying, oh labors right and labor should get this or I also dont think Congress should say, oh, managements right and management should get this. Negotiations in a marketplace take place voluntarily. Congress shouldnt be dictating our will. We didnt have a political election to see what your wages are. And it was my way [of] voting against the Railway Act of 1926 as well.

He added, And the more Congress gets involved, the more the other sides are going to expect this to happen. Now, we have some sort of mediation board, which would be better than Congress. Im not here to say, labor, you dont deserve this. The four unions that rejected this, I think, are half of the railway workers. Should I usurp their will and tell them no, this is what Ive decided? Nobody in Congress has time to sit down and look at every bit of the details of this.

Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul called out Nancy Pelosi's daughter and wished the House speaker's husband a "speedy recovery" after an early morning assault at their San Francisco home left him hospitalized.

"No one deserves to be assaulted," the Republican lawmaker wrote on Twitter Friday morning. "Unlike Nancy Pelosi's daughter who celebrated my assault, I condemn this attack and wish Mr. Pelosi a speedy recovery."

His comments were in response to a March 2020 tweet that said Twitter removed comments made by Nancy Pelosi's daughter, who appeared to endorse a 2017 assault on Paul, in which he was attacked by his next-door neighbor and sustained broken ribs and bruises to his lungs.

The March 2020 tweet included a screenshot of a tweet from a Christine Pelosi tweet, which said "Rand Paul's neighbor was right."

Early Friday morning, someone broke into Nancy Pelosi's San Francisco home and "violently assaulted" her husband.

The House speaker was not home at the time of the incident, and her husband, Paul, is expected to make a full recovery after he was taken to a local hospital.

"The Speaker and her family are grateful to the first responders and medical professionals involved, and request privacy at this time," Nancy Pelosi's office said in a statement Friday morning.

The US Capitol Police said it was helping the FBI and the San Francisco Police Department to investigate the incident.

U.S. Sen. Rand Paul sailed to re-election Tuesday night, promising to subpoena "every last document of Dr. [Anthony] Fauci" and focusing on whether COVID-19 can be traced to lab research in China.

"I promise you this: the COVID cover-up will end" the Kentucky senator told supporters.

Paul won a third six-year term in Congress on Tuesday, scoring a victory that the Associated Press called relatively early Tuesday evening as election results rolled in.

MIDTERM ELECTIONS 2022 ARE UNDERWAY AS VOTERS HEAD TO POLLS, CONTROL OF CONGRESS IS ON THE BALLOT

The libertarian-leaning senator ran on a staunchly conservative ticket, promising voters to investigate the origins of the COVID-19 virus, among other key issues.

"I will not only hold Dr. Fauci accountable, we will finally investigate why your tax dollars were sent to fund dangerous research in Wuhan [in China]."

Paul and Fauci, the White House chief medical adviser and director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, have repeatedly sparred over this issue at several Senate hearings.

The senator then transitioned to call Kentucky supporters to "savor" the victorious race and highlighted his ideals of individual freedoms.

"Liberty should bring people together because each and every citizen is left alone to enjoy their own personal freedoms," Paul said. "Liberty is that great harmonizer that allows us to live together despite our differences."

U.S. Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., once called House Speaker Nancy Pelosi a "petty tyrant" but a "traitor"? A recent Facebook post sharing a 16-minute video featuring Paul suggests that he calls the California Democrat just that.

"Shes a traitor! Rand Paul uncovers Nancy Pelosis dark secrets in public," a description of the video in the Oct. 3 post says.

This post was flagged as part of Facebooks efforts to combat false news and misinformation on its News Feed. (Read more about our partnership with Meta, which owns Facebook.)

The video in the post shows Paul speaking on the U.S. Senate floor in May about a bill to provide $40 billion in aid to Ukraine to help the country fight Russias invasion. But Paul doesnt mention Pelosi, or even utter the word "traitor." Rather, he explains his objections to the legislation, such as using taxpayer money for a foreign war.

U.S. Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, appears in the videoslast two minutes, giving a speech on the House floor. But he also doesnt call Pelosi a traitor.

RELATED VIDEO

Searching online for evidence that Paul elsewhere called Pelosi a traitor, we found none. U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., once called Pelosi a traitor, drawing news coverage of her remarks, but we found no similar media reports about Paul.

We rate this post False.
