Rand Paul

Rand Paul is a US Senator from Kentucky who has been making headlines recently due to his opposition to President Trump's war powers resolution regarding Iran. In April, the Senate rejected another war powers resolution to limit Trump's authority to wage war with Iran for the fourth time since Trump threatened to destroy Iranian civilization. This comes as public polling shows dismay over war and petrol prices in the US. Additionally, Paul faced criticism for his opposition to Markwayne Mullin's nomination to lead Homeland Security, a role that will oversee the nation's immigration enforcement agenda under Trump's administration.
