Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) used the Heimlich maneuver to save Senator Joni Ernst’s (R-IA) life.
Ernst began to choke during a GOP lunch, prompting Paul to step in.
Ironically, Ernst provided the meal for senators.
Journalist Liz Goodwin shared on X, “Rand Paul used the Heimlich maneuver on Joni Ernst who was choking in senate lunch, according to senators, and is now getting unusual praise from his colleagues. ‘God bless Rand Paul,’ said Sen Lindsey Graham. ‘I never thought I’d say that.'”

Ernst referred to the incident on social media, sharing, “Can’t help but choke on the woke policies Dems are forcing down our throats. Thanks, Dr. @RandPaul!”
