Senate

Paul turns 51, gets drone

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) says Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) gave him a drone for his birthday this week, and joked he might use it to spy on Democrats.

{mosads}“The senator, my good friend, Sen. Mike Lee from Utah, gave me a drone,” Paul said Wednesday night on Fox News’s “On the Record.”

“You may wonder, what am I going to do with a drone? Well, it’s got a laser. And I’ve been trying to get invited to the Democrat lunch for about a year now and they won’t invite me. … So you know what? I think I’m going to send my drone in.”

Host Greta van Susteren asked Paul if it carried a camera and audio capability.

“We haven’t installed that yet. We have to check on the rules. But we’re hopeful.”
