When the Senate gets to a vote, the measure appears to have enough support to pass.Does it have enough support to override a veto?

Rand is not the bad guy. The entitlements, given by the POS Progressive politicians must be cut. Go to work for your food just like the rest of us....or starve on the streets. You will figure it out.

Deficit spending used to matter to Republicans during Obamas years, not so much now. Go figure.

I’m beginning to think the Democrats are right when they say Republicans don’t know how to govern.

Sheesh, are government is a mess, our agencies are corrupt, our politicians are crooked.
Throw some people in jail before we raise spending because frankly the government hasn’t earned our trust.

Paul, a fiscal conservative, opposes the boost to military... Has Mister Paul ever been a friend of our precious Military?

Aside from no spending caps and an additional $300BN in spending and no wall funding, you mean? 10 year extension of CHIPS, maybe?
