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.”
During a Thursday interview with FNC’s “Fox & Friends,” Sen. Rand Paul 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.
“And we should not lose sight of the fact that this has never ever happened before — for good reason — because we need to have confidence in the FBI. We need to have confidence in our intelligence agencies that they are there to protect us and not to go after people for political purposes. So, the burden is on them to prove that this is not a politically motivated witch hunt.”

How to Control Your Emotions During a Difficult ConversationWhen you’re in the middle of a conflict, it’s common to automatically enter into a “fight or flight” mentality. But it’s possible to interrupt this response and clear a path towards entering into a more productive discussion. Start by taking a deep breath and focusing on your body. Repeat a mantra to yourself such as “This isn’t about me,” “This will pass,” or “This is about the business.” And try to distance yourself from the negative emotion you’re feeling by labeling it: “He is so wrong about that and it’s making me mad becomes I’m having the thought that my coworker is wrong, and I’m feeling anger.” And don’t forget the value of taking a break. The more time you give yourself to process your emotions, the less intense they are likely to be.
