Rand Paul came back from Russia with an affinity for the Kremlin

He's "applauding" DT for revoking Brennan’s security clearance. Maybe Rand Paul should have his security clearance removed until we find out what he did in Russia.

And if the choices "proposed" to him were to:
A- help influence mother Russia policy and have access to $$ to keep his career going or

B-"it would be a tragedy if something were to happen to you or your family".....

It's an easy choice to make.

He's knee deep in Russian money or knee deep in little boys. There's no other possibility. And I guarandamntee you the "altercation" with his neighbor is all tied to this.

It's like ideology (communism v. democracy) has fallen away entirely for these people. Russian= Caucasian Central. So they're all for the KGB spy now because he's the white strongman.

It has to be something serious that would either put him in legal jeopardy or sink his reputation and political career(or both). Otherwise, he'd just contact the DOJ and say Russia is trying to blackmail him.
