Rand Radio

No one in Washington has pursued Dr. Anthony Fauci for his potential criminal involvement in the global coronavirus pandemic.The creation of the virus. The funding. The cover up. The silence as the pandemic grew.Paul says he has the evidence that only grows over time and now he just needs cooperation from the Justice Department to seek… justice.The senator recently released some new information that reveals how deeply Fauci was involved with intelligence agencies.Which recently led to Paul even comparing for Fauci to longtime FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover.It definitely wasn’t a compliment.Rand Paul Review is a reader-supported publication.

What did you learn, and what can we do to hold him accountable?”“Because we’ve talked about this for so long,” Henry asked. “Can we take action now that you’ve gotten these documents?”Sen. Paul replied, “You know, the closest thing I can use in comparison would be J Edgar Hoover, who was in charge of the FBI for 70 years, had secret files on people, pressured people, gave money, threatened to expose people.”“That was J. Edgar Hoover,” Paul said. “And we were so upset by it that we tried to reform it in the 1970s because of what he had done to our country.”On what would have been Hoover’s 100th birthday in 2024, Matthew Harwood wrote for Reason, “Presidential administrations throughout the 20th century—likely fearing Hoover and his secret files—left him unchecked and either actively supported or tacitly approved of his methods. Presidents from Franklin Delano Roosevelt to Richard Nixon found Hoover’s capabilities useful for their political agendas, thus embedding a culture of surveillance and political manipulation that Hoover masterfully orchestrated.”Hoover manipulated the system for his own agenda, breaking laws, pressuring and circumventing some of the most powerful people in government. For decades.Sound familiar?Paul continued with Newsmax, “Fauci was there for 40 years. He was paid more than the president. He abused his office. He had his tentacles into the community. And he basically changed the narrative.”“The narrative that he didn’t want out was that he had funded gain-of-function research and that this dangerous research led to a pandemic that killed 15 million people,” Paul said. “He didn’t want out.”Fauci was fine with what he was doing. Until things began to unravel.So the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) started making up his own reality - one in which he conviently wasn’t guilty of anything.‘He Changed the Truth’The Kentucky senator explained, “And so what he did is he changed the truth. He obscured and covered his tracks, and he got scientists to say, oh, no, this came from the wet market when the science was already known. We have e-mails from him in January of 2020 admitting that it didn’t come from the market, there were lineages of this separate and before the market, and that the marketplace with the unusual animals they eat was an amplifier event. It wasn’t the origin of it.” “He knew this early on and yet promoted a different narrative,” Paul noted.In another interview with Real America’s Voice, Paul elaborated further.Host John Solomon said to Sen. Paul, “I looked at that timeline and you start to understand the master manipulation of Dr. Fauci. He makes all these friends in the intelligence community so that the day when his own experiment blows up in the Wuhan lab, he’s got the ability to bamboozle them.” “Is that what we think was probably going on in early 2020?” Solomon asked. “He was calling on old relationships so he could mislead the intelligence community about what he really was doing?” Paul basically affirmed this.“One of the most incredible timelines, I think, is January 26th or 27th, 2020,” Paul observed. “He’s getting phone calls all day long, but he’s still exchanging phone calls and emails at three in the morning. One of the last ones at three in the morning is to Bob Kadlec, who I didn’t know at the time what his job was, but he was in charge of the committee that oversaw dangerous research. Fauci’s sending him a note at three in the morning.”Dr. Robert Kadlec worked with Fauci at the time the pandemic was emerging, was part of the government’s response to COVID-19 and helped him discredit the lab leak theory.Kadlec would later testify before the House. He told Sky News in 2023 that he would lay awake at night “agonizing” over his actions and those of others involved in the cover up.Paul said, “You must have trouble sleeping if you’re sending something at three. Something must be bothering you if at three in the morning you’re sending him an email that says, oh, just wanted you to see this.”Paul has so much evidence against Fauci on the corruption, crimes, cover ups and more than it would be one of the greatest injustices of this century if Anthony Fauci isn’t prosecuted, given the gravity of how the coronavirus pandemic changed America and the world.But so far, Fauci has been a free man. He’s played the system and bent the rules for his own benefit as much - and probably more - than most federal government actors.The tentacles of Anthony Fauci’s power and his alleged crimes sprawl far and wide.And run through the intelligence community.J. Edgar Hoover would have been proud. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit www.randpaulreview.com/subscribe

LIMITED TIME DEAL: 60% OFF FOR CHRISTMAS It would make a good slug for a screenplay:A CIA director works with a sitting president to undermine his opponent and help steal an election. When the opposition returns four years later and wins the presidency, heads must roll.Welcome to the show.This screenplay could have been written by Sen. Rand Paul, who saw Brennan as a villain years earlier.Paul was the only Senator who strongly opposed Brennan’s confirmation as Obama’s CIA Director in 2013.“When I filibustered his nomination for nearly 13 hrs,” Paul posted on X, “I never imagined the degree of his deceit. I am proud to have been the only U.S. senator to have voted no.”Paul used the filibuster when you had to pay a price: he talked for 13 hrs in the Senate.That’s how bad he wanted to stop Brennan, who voted for Gus Hall for president in 1976. Hall was a member of the Communist Party.The question becomes: How on earth did Brennan get confirmed as CIA director? Who would vote for a Communist sympathizer to head one of the world’s most powerful spy agencies?After all, once a Communist, always a Communist.Sen. Paul VindicatedChairman of the House Judiciary Committee Jim Jordan doesn’t like Communists or other ne’er-do-wells who seek to subvert the Constitution.In late October, Jordan referred John Brennan to the Department of Justice for criminal prosecution.Brennan is accused of knowingly making false statements during an interview before the Committee in 2023.According to a press release from the Committee, “While testifying, Brennan made numerous willfully and intentionally false statements of material fact that were contradicted by the record established by the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) and the CIA.”Denying that the CIA relied on the discredited Steele dossier in drafting the post-2016 election Intelligence Community Assessment is a bold-faced lie.Brennan’s claim that the CIA was not “involved at all” with the Steele dossier should land him behind bars.The fact that Brennan said the CIA opposed including the Steele dossier in the Intelligence Community Assessment should tack on some more years to his sentence.According to the press release, newly declassified documents show that:* A CIA officer drafted the annex containing a summary of the dossier;* Brennan made the ultimate decision, along with then-FBI Director James Comey, to include information from the dossier in the ICA; and* Brennan overruled senior CIA officers who objected to the inclusion of the dossier material.Open and shut. Brennan lied to Congress.Federal criminal law holds that a person who makes any false material declaration “shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than five years, or both.”How many times did Brennan lie to Congress? That’s up to the court system to find out. It could add up to quite a bit of jail time for Comrade Brennan.How could Brennan be so stupid?Sen. Paul knew over a decade ago that anyone who would vote for a Communist for President of the United States had to be stupid.Paul has a knack for seeing what, in retrospect, appears obvious. If it was so obvious, why didn’t more people see it then?Rand Paul should run for president. We could use a common-sense seer behind the desk in the Oval Office when Trump’s term is over.Group Think StupidBrennan isn’t the only one in hot water over an attempted coup via the Russian Collusion Hoax.Along with Brennan, “ex-Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and former FBI officials Peter Strzok and Lisa Page were among more than two dozen people subpoenaed” as part of a DOJ investigation into the infamous 2016 Russian Collusion Hoax.Thirty federal grand jury subpoenas related to the “Russiagate” investigation were issued, according to the New York Post.According to The Post’s star reporter, Miranda Devine, it is a “WORST NIGHTMARE” scenario for the perpetrators of the conspiracy to take down Trump.How could the conspirators go so wrong? According to Divine, it was because they never considered the fact that Trump could become president again.They thought he’d be broke, in jail, or so demonized that he’d be forever politically ruined.Put another way, they’d never thought he’d rise from the ashes like an avenging Phoenix.And that’s just what he did.Imagine if Rand Paul had succeeded in blocking Brennan’s nomination over a decade ago. The Russian Collusion Hoax may never have made it out of the gates. Without CIA approval, the coup conspiracy might have been dead in the water.A man with that kind of foresight would make an excellent president. He’s a staunch Constitutionalist who works to protect individuals from an increasingly weaponized government. This is a public episode.

Senator Rand Paul is unequivocally right. The government shouldn’t be spying on Americans. It’s an abuse of power that’s protected by our Constitutional rights. Privacy is outlined clearly for Americans. It is protected by the Fourth Amendment. From the FBI to the Patriot Act, we’ve had enough.The 4th Amendment specifically states that we have. . .”The right to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause...”. This amendment is a foundational quote for privacy, as it establishes a right against unwarranted government intrusion, even though most of it is talking about warrants and snooping on us in our homes.Yet, the government often ignores the 4th amendment. They claim national security to abuse it. They say it’s for our safety. But at what cost?Senator Paul spoke up for Americans on “The Benny Show.”How FISA is MisusedThe government has broad surveillance powers. They use tools like the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). FISA allows them to collect data. They can spy on communications. This includes emails, phone calls, and more. But here’s the problem. They often target Americans. They do this without warrants. This violates the Fourth Amendment. It’s not hard to see, and people like Edward Snowden made it abundantly clear that we’re being spied on with programs like PRISM. Our own National Security Agency (NSA) paid millions of taxpayer dollars to make sure a private company could spy on Americans without impunity.And Paul points out another key issue. The FISA database is huge. It’s filled with information. Law enforcement can access it easily. They don’t need probable cause. They just need a hunch. This is beyond dangerous. It leads to fishing expeditions. Innocent people get caught up. Our privacy is invaded. This is not what the Founding Fathers of the United States of America intended for its citizens.Who is Really a Domestic Terrorist?What’s more, they’ve even called people who stood up to tyranny on Jan 6, domestic terrorists. They’ve called people who called out COVID domestic terrorists. All they have to do is label you one, and all your privacy rights disappear.The government argues it’s necessary. They say it’s to catch terrorists. They claim it’s for national defense. But Paul disagrees. He says you can spy on foreigners. That’s different. There’s no constitutional protection for them.But Americans have rights.These rights must be respected.The government should get warrants. They need to present evidence. Judges should decide. This is how it’s supposed to work.Spying on Americans Isn’t Right: Abuse of PowerPaul is not alone in this fight to protect our 4th Amendment Rights. Others agree. The Patriot Act is a prime example. It expanded surveillance powers. It was passed after 9/11, but then abused again and again to snoop on Americans’ private lives. One could argue that 9/11 was carried out, at least in part, to give the government more control over its people. They people THEY should serve.As The LastRefuge on X points out, TSA was created to follow our whereabouts, the FBI can surveil at will, with no warrant, and other agencies within the government can threaten citizens with jail or worse since 2016 and the Patriot Act. Our voices are not meant to be heard, but to be observed so that we can be controlled like animals in a cage.Privacy is not just a legal issue. It’s a moral one. Americans deserve trust. They deserve respect. The government works for us, not the other way around. When the government spies on its own citizens, we’re inches away from becoming an Orwellian dystopia, and we’re already 80% there. This is not a free society. It’s a surveillance state.Paul’s message is simple. Protect civil liberties. Don’t sacrifice them for security. Both can coexist. You can fight terrorism without spying on citizens. It’s about balance and ethics.The government shouldn’t be snooping on Americans. Privacy matters, and it’s a Constitutional right. Even the Patriot Act should be repealed. The government must respect our privacy. It’s not just a suggestion. It’s a requirement. It’s what makes America great. This is a public episode.

Celebrate Rand and Kelley Paul's 35th anniversary as well as the end of Fauci by getting 35% off today!Anthony Fauci scrambled to bury his fingerprints on dangerous gain-of-function experiments, all while spinning a convenient fairytale about COVID’s origins. As the world was fed the narrative of animal transmission, the real story was buried to protect power and reputations.Rand Paul Review is a reader-supported publication.

RAND PAUL: One of the things I liked about President Trump was that he opposed regime changes during the first Iraq war and in Libya. Both of those pursuits cost us trillions and led to decades of violence, instability, and chaos.RAND PAUL: Washington’s spending addiction is out of control. I refused to support the $2T GOP deficit or the $3T Democrat deficit. I don’t want a shutdown, and I’ll support legislation to ensure our troops are paid, but I won’t rubber-stamp reckless budgets from either party.Rand Paul Review is a reader-supported publication.
