Rand Paul Claims Biden's Infrastructure Plan Infringes on Bridges' Right to Crumble

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—Senator Rand Paul said that he is opposing President Joe Biden’s infrastructure plan because it “infringes on bridges’ constitutional right to crumble.”

“Decay, deterioration, and collapse are all a part of the natural process of entropy,” Paul said. “It is not the job of government to play God and interfere with that.”

Warning of the “slippery slope of government overreach,” Paul said that the Biden plan is “threatening our infrastructure’s precious freedom to disintegrate.”

“First they came for our bridges, then they came for our potholes, and then they came for our lead water pipes,” he said.

Obviously Rand Paul would never tell the truth like this, he'd just chortle to himself thinking he's killing libs so thats fewer votes he has to get to win.
