US Congressman Ron Paul has been hospitalized after having a medical emergency during a livestream.

On Friday, Ron Paul was holding a livestream for his Liberty Report show and suddenly appeared to be unable to speak.

His mouth appeared to droop and he started slurring words, which are often signs of a stroke, but no official statement about what happened has been released.

The video can be disturbing for some viewers, so please use discretion.

Ron Paul tweeted a picture of himself from the hospital saying that he’s ‘doing fine.’

‘Thank you for your concern,’ the tweet said.

Many prominent figures have been tweeting about Paul, including Texas Senator and former Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz.

‘For many decades, he has been an extraordinary warrior for Liberty,’ Cruz said. ‘May God’s healing hand be upon Dr. Paul, and may God’s Peace and Grace be upon the entire family.’

Ron Paul has gathered a large following from when he ran for president in 2012. He is known as a libertarian and a well-known figure in American politics.
