A shirtless, sunglasses-wearing Rand Paul is ready to take on President Obama, aka “The Head of Washington Spy Machine, as well as Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas, aka “the Capitulating Canadian,” in an epic “brawl for liberty” this Sunday.

That’s at least according to a newly released ad being put out by a pro-Paul super PAC ahead of the U.S. Senate’s return this weekend, promising a pro wrestling-style showdown over the NSA and the Patriot Act this “Sunday, Sunday, Sunday.”

Replete with images and sounds of screeching bald eagles, one of which appears to spit fire, the announcer in the minute-long spot from America’s Liberty PAC urges America to get ready for “the biggest brawl for liberty of the century.”

After failing to reach an agreement over extending key parts of the Patriot Act, including the NSA’s phone-snooping program, the U.S. Senate is returning Sunday with just hours to go before a deadline to renew the provisions.

Mr. Paul helped block extensions of the act and is also opposed to a House-passed bill that ends the agency’s bulk collection of data under Section 215 of the law, saying it doesn’t go far enough.

He is identified as “The Rand Man” just before an image of his head, presumably Photoshopped, on a muscular shirtless body comes on screen accompanied by two bald eagles and a ball of fire.

The ad pits Mr. Paul, a 2016 GOP presidential candidate, against “Obama the email reader,” whose image is accompanied by infamous pictures of Secretary of State and 2004 Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry wind-surfing and 1988 Democratic presidential nominee Michael Dukakis riding in a tank.

The ad, first reported on by The Washington Post, also includes an image of Mr. Cruz, one of Mr. Paul’s rivals in the 2016 presidential race, and Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, a potential rival who could be seen rolling his eyes during Mr. Paul’s recent speech on the floor against the law.

Mr. Cruz, who was born in Calgary and has co-sponsored a Senate version of the House-passed USA Freedom Act, is accompanied by a Canadian flag.

The announcer also previews Mr. Graham trying “to read your emails while doing donuts in a 1997 Geo Metro.”

“Whoa, it’s on fire!” he yells as the car, with Mr. Graham inside, bursts into flames.

The ad will be backed with a five-figure digital buy over the weekend.
