The media did what they could to try and down play the left wing extremist Rene Boucher attack on Rand Paul in his own hoem. The media claimed it was just a minor injury and there was nothing to see here. Turns out the media described ‘minor injury’ caused by the left wing extremist on Rand Paul include five broken ribs which could have lead to a life threatening situation for the Senator. But the media doesn’t want to cover that. This could have been James T. Hodgkinson 2.0. Looks like progressive liberal Democrats have come to the conclusion that they can’t win elections anymore with their far left communist policies, so they are going to try and take out as many Republicans as they can.

In a public notice on Saturday, Kentucky State Police cited Paul’s “minor injury.” That echoed word from Paul’s office, which initially said the Republican senator was fine after being blindsided by an attacker. But by Sunday, it emerged that Paul’s injuries are more serious than first thought.
In an update, Paul’s senior adviser Doug Stafford sent a statement to the Bowling Green Daily News that Paul, 54, “has five rib fractures including three displaced fractures.” He added, “This type of injury is caused by high velocity severe force. It is not clear exactly how soon he will return to work, as the pain is considerable as is the difficulty in getting around, including flying.”
Citing Stafford, The Associated Press reports that displaced fractures such as the ones the senator suffered “can lead to life-threatening injuries.”
Paul reportedly told police that Boucher tackled him from behind. But beyond that, details about how the assault occurred, and what might have motivated it, have been scarce. On Sunday, Paul said that he and his wife, Kelley, “appreciate the overwhelming support after Friday’s unfortunate event. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers.”
