Republican Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul on Tuesday jokingly called for an investigation into Russian ties with environmentalists to needle liberals who pushed the narrative the Kremlin colluded with the Trump campaign.
“Maybe we should get a special prosecutor,” Paul said during an appearance on Newsmax Tuesday. “Maybe we need to spend about $100 million investigating Putin’s contributions to the green alarmists in our country.”
“I don’t know if it’s true,” Paul added. “But can you imagine, there’s probably more truth to that than any of the BS they put forward about trying to connect the Russians to the Trump campaign.”
Accusations about Russian funding of anti-fossil fuel groups have been around for years. https://t.co/EGVIKhZmjo

Environmental groups opposed the Keystone XL pipeline and have also pushed for restrictions on oil and gas drilling. Many environmentalists also opposed hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, claiming it contributed to climate change and harmed water supplies. Critics say these efforts, coupled with current Biden administration policies, contributed to high oil and gas prices, which means more revenue for the Russian government.
“From Day 1, Biden and the Democrats’ actions and statements pushed gasoline prices steadily higher,” conservative commentator Deroy Merdock recently wrote in The New York Post.
There is currently no evidence that American environmentalists are in cahoots with the Kremlin. Likewise, the narrative that former President Donald Trump’s campaign was in league with Russian President Vladimir Putin has also been discredited.

Dear Rand…Class action suit from American people who lost 57 million over this Hillary and left media stunt. I want paid back.
Too bad he’s still a compromised Russian agent himself, and takes Russian money to interfere with sanctions against a Russian tyrant
Omg don’t be ridiculous! The more you say this, the less it means and it is not even believable. Speak to your pal Brandon. He’s the real Russian agent along with Hillary and company. He’s with Her -> haha!
What I fear, is that if Republicans do somehow take back both houses of Congress, they will do what they did last time, virtually nothing. I remember all the NEVER ENDING House and Senate investigations into Benghazi, Obama admin and all the rest by Trey Gowdy, and others that had absolutely NO effect, and nobody was punished. WHY? Because Congress has NO power, none whatsoever. All the power lies in the FBI and DOJ and IRS, which are controlled from top to bottom by loyal Democrats-just like all our corrupt government agencies and lower courts. Democrats control all the real means of investigation and prosecution-that is why top Democrats are never held accountable.
yes, that is why when arrests finally take place, it will in the tens of thousands!
There may not be any evidence yet but keep digging. Given their track record, the dems are so stupid that just the mere suggestion that something is wrong with the planet that they will pursue that to the end of time. Their so stupid that Putin doesnt have to be in cahoots with them. Just roll out the rumors on twitter. Thats enough to get them worked up into a feeding frenzy like a school of bait fish.
