An hour before House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff walked two articles of impeachment against President Trump to the Senate, Sen. Rand Paul mocked the California Democrat and the “anonymous whistleblower” who initiated an investigation into Trump.
“An anonymous ‘whistleblower’ informs us that this was found in a hotel room that @RepAdamSchiff recently check out of. Hmmm,” tweeted Paul.
The Kentucky Republican has backed a quick dismissal of the impending Senate trial but has threatened to call Hunter Biden and the anonymous whistleblower if his GOP colleagues vote with Democrats to allow new witness testimony during the trial.
The tweet included a letter that read, “Things to do: 1. Remember to tap Devin Nunes phone!”
Republicans were frustrated with Schiff after learning he published the phone records of the president’s attorneys, several politicians, and a journalist. Republican California Rep. Devin Nunes was included in the records dump and called the release of messages a “gross abuse of power.”
Trump’s Senate trial will begin next week, and Paul has been among the most vocal Washington lawmakers calling for the whistleblower to be revealed.
