'Republicans Are Emasculated': Rand Paul Furious Over Bipartisan Spending Deal

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) declared that Republicans have “emasculated” themselves by agreeing to a major spending deal and complained Republicans aren’t fiscally conservative.

On Tuesday night, leading congressional Democrats and Republicans agreed on a framework to fund the government through most of 2023. The House is expected to vote on the measure Wednesday night. Meanwhile, the Senate could take up the measure as early as Thursday.

Some Republicans have called on their leadership to wait until the next Congress convenes, when the GOP will control the House.

Paul stated he is staunchly opposed to whatever deal emerges. Instead of one large omnibus package, he said Congress should pass 12 separate appropriations bills and that Republicans should temporarily block one or two to gain leverage to enact policy changes

It's called doing your job Randy. You might try it sometime.

Why do today's Republicans consider sitting on their lazy dead ass to be a virtue?

[Skittles]

1. ENOUGH WITH THE "FISCAL CONSERVATISM"

you fascist fuckers wasted TRILLIONS on wars with ZERO FAVORABLE RESULTS

[ITAL]

15. Well, to be fair

Paul is a skeptical of basically every foreign entanglement.

[SharonAnn]

22. Not mention unending tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations

[treestar]

2. There are female Republicans in

Congress. Rand is a misogynist creep.

[FelineOverlord]

3. Rand throwing hissy fits

He’s really upset that the Repigs didn’t win the Senate and he can’t chair a committee to go after Fauci.

[IA8IT]

4. The billions for billionaires party fiscally conservative???? Are you taking a piss Rand?

go away

[Mr. Evil]

20. Into the wind.

[DET]

5. Sick Of It

Why does everything with these people have to be expressed in terms of their so-called manhood? Any form of rational compromise is considered weakness (‘emasculation’), which is intolerable to these arrogant aholes.

[Cha]

6. FO you Stupid Ayn Rand Paul thing. Russia

Emasculate you right past the bone.

[machoneman]

12. Man, if ANYBODY was emasculated it was Rand Paul by his neighbor who beat him to a pulp! LOL

[Cha]

13. That, too.. I don't advocate

violence but come on!

[Coventina]

7. Good Goddess I'm so sick of toxic masculinity.

Go away, Rand.

Far, far away.

[Mr. Evil]

21. Like, Rand Paul is the epitome of masculinity.

[TheBlackAdder]

8. I think Rand's nextdoor neighbor pretty much did the Joni Ernst on him already.

[JHB]

9. The last time a Republican was actually "fiscally conservative", he was crucified by his own people

That was GHW Bush, giving that last, wheezing gasp of "fiscal conservatism" when he made a feeble attempt to staunch the deficit floodgates opened under the Reagan administration.

That was over 30 years ago. Rand Paul was 27 years old and was still in the early (and legitimate) phase of his medical career.

And old enough to have noticed.

[House of Roberts]

10. Rand is pissed that Republicans don't want to use extortion to rip off

American taxpayers this year.

[Takket]

11. Democrats actully watch out for spending. it is rethugs that blow up the deficit 3x faster

[Maraya1969]

14. 'Republicans Are Emasculated' I think that statement stands on its own merit. eom

[Ocelot II]

16. The word "emasculated" suggests they had something to lose in the first place.

[hadEnuf]

17. The little freak Rand Paul can piss off.

He's a waste of skin.

[Ford_Prefect]

19. ...and oxygen.

[Mr.Bill]

18. They are indeed emasculated.

I hear one of them got the shit beat out of him by his neighbor.

[quaker bill]

23. McConnell gets

that McCarthy cannot gather a functional majority. Shutting the government down because the republican majority cannot function from day 1 with no end in sight, is simply not a good look. So, he prefers to cut a deal that gives the house a year to get their crap in one sock.
