In a rare five minutes of logic displayed in the halls of power, Sen. Rand Paul went to town on leftists for their impeachment of Trump when they don’t hold their own members to the same standards.
After Sen.

“No Democrat will honestly ask whether Bernie Sanders incited the shooter that nearly killed Steve Scalise and a volunteer coach. The shooter nearly pulled off a massacre.
“No Democrat will ask whether Maxine Waters incited violence when she literally told her supporters and I quote, ‘If you see a member of the Trump administration… any place, you create a crowd and you push back on them.’ Is that not incitement?”
“Kamala Harris famously offered to pay the bill for those who were arrested [in the BLM riots].
