Breitbart:
Thursday, during an appearance on FBN’s “Mornings with Maria,” Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) downplayed the possibility of passing an all-encompassing national security package in the U.S. Senate.
According to Paul, putting aid for Taiwan, Ukraine and Israel, along with money to bolster the U.S.-Mexico border, was “dead on arrival.”
“Florida Senator Rick Scott says Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer does not have the votes to pass President Biden’s $106 billion national security package,” host Maria Bartiromo said. “Scott told Fox News Digital, the only way we’re going to get results is if we will not give Ukraine money unless it’s completely tied on a month-to-month basis to a reduction in the number of people crossing the border. Senator, where does this stand? I know this is a priority now in terms of getting that money to Ukraine and to Israel and perhaps try to change policy at the border.”
“I think the kitchen sink approach of putting all the aid Israel, Ukraine, the border, Taiwan all into one enormous $100 billion bill,” Paul replied. “I think that’s dead on arrival. I don’t think the House will accept that. more
stand-alone, assholes
Anything good for the American people is DOA.
There should never be any more bills that try to encompass anything. They should be single purpose only. Put these a-holes in Congress on record for voting for the individual bills, not all encompassing anything where they can excuse their vote by saying, “but if I didn’t vote for the whole ten trillion dollar bill, then there wouldn’t have been any funding for the National Spoon museum.”
How about slipping term limits into all bills?
