Rand Paul is making history today! Will history notice?
He could have read the dictionary, but instead he is requiring of himself to expound on the principles of our Constitution, Bill of Rights, separation of powers, posse comitatus, habeas Corpus, the sloppy bills Congress passes, etc, etc. Now approaching his 4th hour.
By word count, I can’t remember the last time I heard the words “Constitution” and “Republic” repeated so often-— just not repeated, but explained!
The criticism that he repeats himself... thumbs up to Paul! Anyone else care to intelligently filibuster for 4 hours? Moreover, repetition is a well-tested educational device.
Any Senators not joining Paul are being exposed for the self-interested anti-Constitutionalist cowards that they are.
Reminds me of Newt’s after-hours monologues. Those were the days.
