Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) took on House Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) in the wake of today's embarrassing defeat for Democrats' open borders bill and a funding boom for Ukraine.
Senator Paul joined Laura Ingraham to recap today's vote on funding for Ukraine – the brutality of open borders.
Rand Paul accused McConnell of working with Biden and Schumer to send your tax money to Ukraine!
late. Rand Paul: From the beginning I thought this was a hoax. It was never about boundaries. That was a symbol, that was a bone to be thrown to conservatives. But they were always concerned that if conservatives knew that this was a hoax, that it wasn't real border reform, and if people like Laura Ingraham or Hannity somehow knew about this, you would debate the bill, look at the bill, and it would be destroyed. So the game all along was to keep this a secret from usBut also in secret from anyone who might look at him and might criticize him. This has been an orchestrated plan from the beginning by our leadership to keep this out of the hands of any conservatives who might criticize it.
LAURA INGRAHAM: Well, we got our hands on it. Then they said it was an internet rumor. Langford kept saying these were internet rumors. Then you open the bill, it says 5,000 people.
late. Rand Paul: Yes, it will be an emergency after 5,000 people. What about a state of emergency after 700,000 people have already arrived in the last two months?
Laura Ingraham: Senator, go ahead. Senator McConnell was asked about the criticism he has faced over this bill debacle. I had a small collection of,” he told Politico Constant critics All this time I was at work. The reason we talked about borders is because the constant critics wanted to. You can't pass a bill without dealing with a Democratic president and a Democratic Senate. What about that? I mean, Democrats seem to get a lot done when they have a Republican President or a Republican Senate?
late. Rand Paul: It's completely separate from Kentucky Republicans, where conservative Republicans are calling for all this money to be sent to Ukraine. We are not for that. I mean, no one in Kentucky agrees with that. His acceptance rates at Kentucky are almost zero. They are the lowest of any elected official in the United States. He works with Biden and Schumer to funnel your money to Ukraine, but he doesn't work with governors. Therefore, he is in the minority in his party caucus. There are probably ten of them who will vote with all the Democrats. He's using the minority of top Republicans in government here to work with Democrats to send your money to Ukraine.
