Senator Rand Paul had his question blocked by Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts during the Senate impeachment hearings Wednesday night and Thursday. After a day of unsuccessful arguments behind-the-scenes, Paul eventually took his frustrations to Twitter.

Wednesday night, Paul was heard becoming heated on the floor as his question was ignored. And he got nowhere forcing the issue Thursday.

On Twitter, Paul’s spokesman Sergio Gor said Paul is insistent on asking his question because the “American people deserve to know how this all came about.”

“Paul believes it is crucial the American people get the full story on what started the Democrats’ push to impeach President Donald Trump,” his office said in a statement.

On Twitter, Paul revealed his question:

“My exact question was: Are you aware that House intelligence committee staffer Shawn Misko had a close relationship with Eric Ciaramella while at the National Security Council together and are you aware and how do you respond to reports that Ciaramella and Misko may have worked together to plot impeaching the President before there were formal house impeachment proceedings.”

Roberts will not read out loud a question that names the whistleblower, an unnamed source said. Sources confirm that it is not GOP leadership blocking the question, but Roberts himself.

Ultimately this may mean that although senators are supposed to be able to ask questions by sending them up to Roberts to read, Paul’s may not be asked.

Other senators’ questions, which included details of the whistleblowers’ identity, were read aloud. Senators Mike Lee (Utah), Ted Cruz (Texas), and Josh Hawley (Mo.) asked for details on who the whistleblower might have worked with, and Cruz, Hawley and Senator Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) asked the House managers if the whistleblower had ever worked for former vice president Joe Biden.

Only Paul’s question has been blocked, according to a source.
