Rand Paul Unleashes Twitter Rant: 'The Decision Is Astounding'

Sen. Rand Paul went on a blistering Twitter rant slamming FBI Director James Comey's decision not to prosecute Hillary Clinton in the email scandal.

The Kentucky senator, a former 2016 Republican presidential candidate, was the lone dissenter when the Senate voted to confirm Comey in 2013.

He had opposed the FBI's drone surveillance policy. The final vote was 93-1.

Here are Paul's tweets:

Today the FBI announced @HillaryClinton violated classified procedures and recklessly endangered national security - over 100 times...

The FBI then announced she would face no charges. This is an outrage and the rule of law has been turned upside down.

This weekend, we learned former President Clinton met with the Obama Administration Attorney general - the FBI director's boss - in private.

Three days later the FBI director announces no charges are being brought against Hillary Clinton.

The appearance is terrible. The decision is astounding. Ppl have gone to jail for less severe classified breaches and national security.

Today Comey & Obama's DOJ made it clear to the American people there's no accountability no justice & the Clintons live by different rules.

— Dr. Rand Paul (@RandPaul) July 5, 2016

This is a loss for the rule of law and further degrades Americans' faith in the justice system.
