It makes no sense to continue the status quo. It's bad policy to borrow money from China to send to Ukraine. It’s bad policy to bankrupt our own country to send money to Ukraine. Like I said last week, I will not consent to easy passage of any spending bill that includes funding for Ukraine. Those in charge of this bill need to either take it out or will have to fight me every step of the way.

“It makes no sense”
Yes it does make sense when you realize our government is under enemy occupation
Rand, RAM the bill back down their throats!!
Well that’s one vote for no. I’d imagine it will pass somewhere around 65-35. And the house will round up 7 votes to replace the 7 holdouts and the president will sign. On to the next drama.
The Senate legislation will fund the federal government until Nov. 17, the week before Thanksgiving, and provide approximately $6.15 billion in funding for Ukraine and $5.99 billion in disaster assistance.
The legislation will also temporarily extend the expiring authority of the Federal Aviation Administration.
We shall see if Rand actually does fight or gets bought off like the others.
They have 77 votes according to The Hill.
He can stop quick passage but if they have 77 votes it’s going pass at some point
Sucks but we should cheer on Rand as he will expose them...
The Ukraine policy is void of logic. Thry are all crooks, stealing from their countrymen
Senators are out of touch
What will the House do? They’re usually more attuned to public opinion
I’m with Rand.
To hell with Ukraine and the congressional laundry and finish the damn wall.
I love Rand Paul.
Yeah, for a whole week and it will pass. Tough talk with nothing to back it is nothing more than talk. He’s up for election.

One of perhaps two handful of actual representatives. The rest are grifting scum who destroyed the nation for personal gain.
Only 77 criminal scumbags? I think it’s closer to 93-95.
