Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., appeared on ABC News’ “This Week” Sunday to defend the Trump administration from the post-Mueller report, yet the apparently still perpetual Russia investigation. He criticized Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., who had appeared on the program before him. Paul basically said Schiff was a partisan hack who had no problem supporting former President Barack Obama invoking executive privilege, but attacks President Trump for doing the same.

“He’s a hypocrite,” Paul said, approving of a clip host George Stephanopoulos played showing Schiff doing exactly what the senator accused him of.
