"He is, they say, currently circulating a petition to go around the Senate leaders and force a vote on defunding Planned Parenthood anyway. Paul is calling pro life leaders to join him in this crusade, and some pro life leaders are already whispering that this may be the perfect time to strike at Planned Parenthood. If he succeeds, it would of course be a massive rebuke of McConnells leadership of the GOP majority in the Senateand that its even come to this is extraordinary considering that McConnell and all Republicans nationwide just last year campaigned on the promise that giving Republicans the GOP majority in the Senate would mean the place would run differently from the way it ran under Reids leadership and Democratic control."
Go Paul! Go Cruz! Hit the WASHINGTON CARTEL hard!
Love this. This boldness may have been keynoted by Mr
Trump. No one can knock what he has done if they want any move at all toward challenging the statist control of our land! Good going, Rand.
Trump has paved the way.
The most corrupt government on the planet. We’re number one ! Whoohoo...
Good for him!
******************

No big fan of Trump or anybody for that matter . Fun to watch and maybe on to something. I am the guy you want to vote in TX PRIMARY. FOR YOUR GUY. Might make a diff this time voting for REAGAN WAS a a great priviledge
FUMM!!
Cruz and Paul have been doing this right along. And yes its nice to see Trump doing it also
I’ve never been a fan of scorched-earth politics but I’m beginning to believe that it’s an idea whose time has come.
Way to go Paul.
Kick some RINO butt.

Following through on his vow to defund Planned Parenthood, Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky.) has introduced legislation to strip the abortion provider of federal funding. The bill is now being fast-tracked after the Kentucky senator invoked Rule 14 on Friday, clearing the way for a floor vote as early as next week, a spokesman for the Rand Paul campaign confirmed to TheBlaze.
Since the inhumane acts of Planned Parenthood have surfaced, I have vowed to defeat and defund this taxpayer-funded organization. I am more appalled than ever by Planned Parenthoods complete disregard for the sanctity of human life, Paul said in a statement. Today, I implemented Rule 14 and fast-tracked legislation to strip every dollar of Planned Parenthood funding. I will continue to lead this charge in defense of the unborn. As the The Hill explains, Rule 14 allows the legislation to skip the committee process and be placed on the Senate calendar so it can be brought up for a floor vote.
Something is afoot. Cruz then Paul. The king is dead, long live the king (or kings)!
Looks like junior did good today.
He might be the third piece of the puzzle. I’m hoping Carly gets some religion on infanticide and joins up. She’d be a fine addition.
Red meat is being served, all u can eat!
Good.
About time the uprising took place
“The most corrupt government on the planet. Were number one ! “
Naah. Not even close. Try central america or subsaharan africa. They’’ve got it down to an art form.
