Rand Paul is just as stupid as his weak, low T father

The next time the Senate meets a "point of order" needs to be raised and the "Byrd Rule" needs to be invoked. Democrats are clearly trying to expand Medicaid/Medicare payments under the Social Security Laws and add over $1.5 trillion to the National Debt. These attempts are in violation of the Byrd Rule and the filibuster is ended. A typical majority vote will pass the CR!!! DO IT! That is an ORDER!!!! Oh yeah, Rand Paul should be the Senator to call for the point of order!

Rand Paul is stupid ,with his help the Democrats are holding America hostage and putting the Democrats 1 vote closer to getting the 1.5 trillion dollars of waste or cutting money to military and needed programs

I'm very disappointed in Rand Paul.

@jasminecrandall2262 October 8, 2025 - 7:47 pm

The blame game is beyond nauseating.
Too many hands in the cookie jar.
Turns out Americans aren’t actually living longer anymore Rand.

The worst republican senator

He is a clown

@ilect1690 October 8, 2025 - 7:47 pm

thats not true btw, the sticking point is the fact that the biden era healthcare credits were supposed to expire in 2025, the democrat plan continues the 2024 plan as it was exactly word for word whereas the republican plan cuts that out. The plan democrats want is ironically the exact same plan that we had been using in all of 2025

@stroudm25 October 8, 2025 - 7:47 pm

This news is easy to understand.

@Gadfly247 October 8, 2025 - 7:47 pm

Rand Paul prolonging the shutdown requiring an additional Dem to vote for the CR. Paul is an ideologue who either gets his way or no way.

Foreign aid should be zero dollars until the United States is able to take care of its own citizens instead of the world 😂

The biggest pingpong game ever!!! Only, this time, it's a game that they are playing with people's lives. Thanks politicians for absolutely ruining the country. Either side, they just can't do their jobs!!! Take a paycut 😅😅😅,right.

At least the conservatives are bringing in some money not just putting it all in their pockets

It's not the spending. It's what it's being spent on. Democrats only want Obama care extended

Rhino, ,get over it,,,look at long term with what is being done..NEVER cared for you Rand Paul…Dont hate you,, just dont care for you..Id like to hear your specific resolution

@christiansmakingmusic777 October 8, 2025 - 7:47 pm

A voice of reason on this issue. Why not get a bipartisan plan to reduce the debt and reform entitlements? Balance the budget? Instead we get this blame game. Maybe we need laws governing the process that ensure such disruptions would be rarer?

@Gregoriosplace October 8, 2025 - 7:47 pm

The whole two party system is defunct. Most do not even know what they are supposed to stand for, and even more do not follow it. I don't belong to any party. I vote for who has best ideas and proposals and gets the most done. The childish rich clowns do not care about he average American. They care about their money and their power. The weakest and most vulnerable among us get used as pawns in their games. And lets face it, this President has to be the worst in the history of our country. He is unhinged. So spoiled his whole life, he has become a monster and has been for most of his adult life.
