Rand Paul Latest Republican Attending 'Summit' Hosted By Group Behind Jan. 6 Rally
WASHINGTON — Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul has become the latest and biggest-name Republican to be appearing at next month’s “Save America Summit” hosted by the group that staged the Jan. 6 rally that fed into the attack on the Capitol.
Women for America First leader Amy Kremer announced Paul’s appearance at the April 8-11 event she is hosting at former President Donald Trump’s financially troubled property near the Miami airport. “He’ll be discussing his common sense #Electionintegrity plan to make sure Nov 2020 NEVER happens again,” according to a post on the group’s Twitter account.
“Election integrity” is the phrase many Republicans have been using to describe their efforts across dozens of states to impose new voting restrictions, typically based on the lie started by Trump that “massive voter fraud” had allowed Democrats to “steal” the election from him.
In fact, Trump’s own attorney general at the time, William Barr, said there was no evidence of that, and Trump’s own Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency declared the Nov. 3 election “the most secure in American history.”
