Rand Paul: GOP Emasculated’ by Budget Deal – A ‘Lie’ Republicans Fiscally Conservative
Breitbart ^ | 12/14/2022 | Pam Key

Posted on 12/14/2022 7:12:04 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) said Wednesday on Fox Business Network’s “Kudlow” that Republicans had “emasculated” themselves by agreeing to the framework for an omnibus spending bill to fund the government through 2023.

Paul said, “This brings upon us the lie that Republicans really are fiscally conservative. The Democrats aren’t. They will not pretend to be fiscally conservative. Not one of them up here gives a darn about the debt. The Republicans all profess to be, but when you make them vote on the PAYGO resolution, pay as you go, that we can’t have new spending without offsetting it, they always vote to exempt it. So the omnibus will be 3,000 pages. We’ll get it two hours before they want to pass it. No one will read it. But hidden in the 3,000 pages will be we’re going to wave PAYGO.”

Rand is so right the RINO’s that don’t want to talk any social issues call themselves “fiscally conservative” and then when the rubber meets the road they spend wildly too.

It is a game that the group that runs the government plays. They make the public think that there is a real difference between the two parties when there is not. In fact the leadership class goes to the same schools and knows each other very well.

I have said before: McCarthy and McConnell are not the problem. The Republican caucus is the problem.

The US is in danger of bankruptcy.

According to the German publication Spiegel, the US national debt is growing even faster than in countries with lower living standards. So far, only two of the 38 OECD countries have higher debt-to-GDP ratios.

No states will become independent. They will become dependent - upon the Deep State. This is what the DS wants, and are getting CBDC ready. Will it happen? If it does, it’ll be thanks to limp-wristed GOP congress critters.

The same gop who spent how much money paying people and businesses to do nothing during covid.
They were either incompetent or complicit in that and each grandma can’t buy Christmas omnibus passed in my lifetime.

Up until today I was hoping that we would form a MAGA party. We still need an alternate party based on MAGA.
