Rand Paul has come out against a special counsel being appointed to investigate Hunter Biden:
FOX NEWS – Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., said Thursday that Hunter Biden “deserves the same justice that Paul Manafort got” but opposed appointing a special counsel to oversee the investigation into his tax affairs.
“Hunter Biden deserves the same justice that Paul Manafort got. Nothing less, nothing more,” he said, referring to President Trump’s former campaign chairman who was imprisoned for various financial crimes.
Some Republicans have called for the Justice Department appointing a special counsel before Biden takes office to look into the matter, but Paul said he opposed it because those kinds of prosecutors were “too powerful.”
