Rand Paul announced today that he will be filing a class action lawsuit against the President and others tomorrow on behalf of the American people. Paul explains that the president has, “publicly refused to stop a clear and continuing violation of the 4th Amendment.” Others named in the suit include, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, Director of the National Security Agency Keith Alexander and FBI Director James Comey, according to Bridgette Johnson of PJ Media. Paul believes the case will go to the supreme court:
“The Bill of Rights protects all citizens from general warrants. I expect this case to go all the way to the Supreme Court and I predict the American people will win.”
Former Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli and FreedomWorks president Matt Kibbe join Paul on his legal team. Cuccinelli will act as lead council:
“We have assembled a legal team and we expect to be opposed by the vast resources of the federal government, yet I am optimistic that we will prevail, because we are seeking to protect a cornerstone of the Constitution.”
Kibbe adds:
“This class action suit isn’t about Republican versus Democrat, or progressive versus conservative. This is about defending the basic civil liberties of every American from a government that has crossed the line. FreedomWorks is participating in this suit on behalf of our community of 6 million citizens nationwide, along with any American who has a phone. If you use a phone, you should care about this case. Never in American history has there been such a warrantless gathering of citizens information. We believe it is time to put this before the courts.”
We at Post Scripts are here to help. Those who may not recall the Fourth amendment can review courtesy of Find Law:
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
I support Rand Paul and his fine legal team…how about you?
I agree.
THANK YOU Senator Paul!
Well, well, well one of the the Autocrat In Chief’s policies has made the water boy nervous.
LOL
You can not sue the president for official activities
come on now!
LOL just a failed Tea Party Campaign effort…lol hilarious!
you have to impeach a president for official duties…….Epic fail!
Now beyond that fact Rand Paul is an idiot! He knows darn well he can not sue the prez and thinks Americans are dumb enough to think ya can!
There are just not enough dumb Americans who will fall for this campaign trick for attention.
I realize tea partiers will but they are the only ones who will fall for the trick! LOL
Not only that once again Rand Paul Plagiarized the suit. That boy seems to lack skill and integrity. He was busted foe plagiarizing wikipedia for speech material and now a lawsuit? LOL

and Ted Cruz was shutdown in the senate yesterday…lol
Seems like that last shutdown made republicans mad and Ted got his axe handed to him…lol
Good bye Tea Party we all are tired of it!
Better and better it gets. Turns out this complaint is not the work of either Rand or Cuccinelli … and the lawyer who did write the complaint is pisssssed.
Dewey, I think the suit is more symbolic than anything else. Which is true of most things Republican congressmen do these days, but at least this time I think they have a point.
I didn’t know that lawsuits could be plagiarized, but I guess it makes sense. It seems the lawyer whose work was taken is pretty upset over his work being copied and passed off as someone else’s. Can you bring a lawsuit against someone for plagiarizing a lawsuit? Weird.
Chris that is odd, especially since much of what lawyers do is copied from text that has become standard verbage for contracts, policies, etc.
