Sen. Rand Paul led a majority of the Senate GOP conference in condemning the trial against former President Trump as a violation of due process in a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland.

FIRST ON FOX: Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., led 28 other Republicans in a scathing rebuke of Attorney General Merrick Garland and the New York 'show trial' against former President Trump. 'The conviction of President Trump in Manhattan is nothing short of the evisceration of the American judicial process,' the lawmaker wrote in a Wednesday letter.

Yet, even after the jury rendered its verdict, we do not know what constitutes that specific second crime,' Paul wrote.
