Senator Rand Paul joins Liberty + Leadership for a wide-ranging conversation on his investigation into the government’s COVID-19 response, his fight against federal waste and overreach, and a question that could have major implications for 2028: could Senator Paul make another run for the White House?

Paul discusses his ongoing investigation into Dr. Anthony Fauci and gain-of-function research, including his efforts to obtain testimony and records related to the government’s handling of the pandemic. He also explains why he believes the lack of transparency during the pandemic damaged public trust in health institutions and what reforms he wants Congress to pursue.

Roger and Senator Paul also examine fraud and waste in federal programs, presidential emergency powers, tariffs, free trade and why Paul believes constitutional principles are hardest to defend when members of the same political party hold power. He argues that Republicans have moved away from traditional positions on limited government and trade and explains where he believes the party should go next.
