Rand Paul vows to oppose any spending package that funds Ukraine

JTN: Kentucky Republican Sen. Rand Paul on Wednesday announced that he would not support any spending package that includes funding for Ukraine’s war efforts against Russia.

President Joe Biden has requested that Congress approve an additional $24 billion in aide to Kyiv amid its flagging counteroffensive operation. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is slated to meet with lawmakers on Thursday.

“Today I’m putting congressional leadership & [President Joe Biden] on notice that I will oppose any effort to hold the federal government hostage for Ukraine funding. I will not consent to expedited passage of any spending measure that provides any more US aid to Ukraine,” the lawmaker posted on X.

  2. Thank you, Rand.
    And thank you, Ron, for raising your son well.

    Giving money to the Yooks is like giving money to the mob so they can think up new ways to rob me and extort money from me all the while they tighten the laces on my straightjacket.

  3. Must be nice to be able to reach deep into the American Taxpayers pocket anytime you dream up some dumb money burning idea and know they’re trapped. Too bad most of Washington has the same mind set.

  4. Good luck with that, Rand, and watch your back. Hillary just cranked up her Clinton Foundation grift to skim off the Ukraine funding. She’s late to the Ukraine game, and she’ll come at you harder than your psycho neighbor if you manage to turn off the spigot before she gets a piece of the action.
