WASHINGTON – Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) said Thursday that he’s worried that he’s a surveillance target of the U.S. intelligence community, while pointing to the events surrounding former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn’s dismissal.

President Trump dismissed Flynn in February after revelations that he misled Vice President Mike Pence, White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus and Press Secretary Sean Spicer about communications with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak concerning U.S. sanctions. Intelligence officials reportedly recorded Flynn’s conversations prior to his taking office, which allowed the administration to discover the contradictions.

Say what you like but his fears may be well founded.
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

Well. He is a bit of a drama queen.  So I'll take his fear with a grain of salt.

Why would he be afraid? He's not doing much of anything, it seems, never mind anything of interest.

Well, we know the prior administration was spying on the incoming administration. And courts have signaled a willingness to tolerate a loosening of protections on privacy, with NSA, FISA, financial disclosure, etc. so what's a little political intrigue if it's for a noble cause. A slippery slope, that's what.

It could be that:


1. That Rand Paul is starting to be whack job like his dad.
2. Rand Paul is just a attention whore.
3. or both.
