Rand Paul: ‘Burden Is on the FBI to Justify’ Mar-a-Lago Raid, Prove It Wasn’t ‘Politically Motivated Witch Hunt’

During a Thursday interview with FNC’s “Fox & Friends,” Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) called on the FBI to “prove” its raid of former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home was “not a politically motivated witch hunt.”

According to Paul, “the burden is on the FBI to justify” its raid since the agency had a history of spying on Trump.

“You know, I think the burden is on the FBI to justify this raid. This is extraordinary,” Paul outlined. “This is also the same FBI that used a foreign intelligence warrant to snoop on and spy on the Trump campaign, to investigate them for over two years. So, I think the burden really is on the FBI. They’ve been wrong in the past. They’ve broken the law in using these foreign intelligence warrants; now, they use a domestic warrant. But I do think they need to release the justification for this because this is extraordinary.”
