Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) loves Festivus,a holiday that was the focus of a 1997 episode of Seinfeld that features a ceremony known as the Airing of Grievances.

Every year, Paul takes to twitter for the Airing of Grievances, complaining about some of his colleagues in Congress, the media and more.

This year, Paul set his sights on former Texas Gov. Rick Perry, who was recently tapped by President-elect Donald Trump to lead the Department of Energy.

Yes, thats the department Perry famously forgot in a 2011 presidential debate while trying to name three departments hed eliminate as president.

Paul also took a swipe at tech billionaire Peter Thiel, a member of Trumps transition teamwho helped ex-wrestler Hulk Hogan sue Gawker earlier this year, effectively shutting down the website.

Paul also expressed concern over the rise of fake news in 2016, while taking a jab at MSNBCs Brian Williams.

Dan OKeefe, the Seinfeld writer who penned the episode about Festivus, told HuffPost in 2015 he wants Paul to stop using the holiday as a way to make warmed-over 10-year-old talking points.

I hate the guy, OKeefe said. I think hes some sort of lizard that somehow crawled into a suit and somehows been allowed into the Senate.
