Last night and this morning, Rand Paul made the rounds on Fox News and NBC's Today to talk about his concerns with emails and national security. Below is a response from DNC Spokesperson Ian Sams to Sen. Paul's comments:

"If Rand Paul wants to talk about national security, let's talk about national security. Paul voted to shut down the Department of Homeland Security. He wants to eliminate all U.S. foreign aid, even to our allies like Israel - a move which would make the world less prosperous, stable and secure. In Guatemala last year, he criticized the President on foreign soil, and this week he joined 46 other Republican senators to undercut the United States abroad by seeking to sabotage our multilateral negotiations with Iran. He wants to shrink the military and has been all over the map on how to combat the threat of ISIL.

"Rand Paul's agenda would shrink America's influence in the world, promote instability and invite aggression from our enemies. Under a President Paul, we wouldn't have to wonder if our nation would be less secure - he's already telegraphed how it would be."
