Sen. Rand Paul slams ‘petty tyrants’ for COVID lockdowns, mask mandates
Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., reacts to the former Department of Homeland Security arguing there should be a no-fly list for unvaccinated people.
Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., told "Fox & Friends" Thursday that there’s nothing more "authoritarian" than a no-fly list for unvaccinated people.
