Sen. Rand Paul has promised to uncover the truth about the COVID-19 pandemic as he prepares to take over the chairmanship of the upper chamber’s Homeland Security Committee.
“I chose to chair this committee over another because I believe that, for the health of our republic, Congress must stand up once again for its constitutional role,” Paul (R-Ky.) said Wednesday.
“This committee’s mission of oversight and investigations is critical to Congress reasserting itself.”
“I think we’re on the cusp of, really, the beginning of uncovering what happened with COVID,” he added.
Paul said his new potion under President Donald Trump will help him uncover what happened with COVID.
“We are going to, hopefully, have a friendlier administration, and we’re hoping that there will be a friendly person at [the Department of Health and Human Services], and we’re hoping they’ll be friendly at [the National Institutes of Health],” he said.
