I'm really starting to like this guy, calling out everyone and our corrupted government on both sides..
@Steven Belzer To quote another poster: The greatest American President that never was but should have been...Ron Paul.
He does this every year, dog and pony show and nothing ever changes!
@@magaranita Hey that's my line 😂well saying it about his dad for years and then his son. Only "starting to like" tho. Sharpen up America. You have some great leaders you never use. Love and respect from Ireland. Can we have Rand Paul please If your not using him🙏 pleaseeeeeee.. badly needed
@Steven Belzer ♥️♥️♥️
The Greatest American Statesman to ever live -- Dr. Ron Paul of Texas! ♥️🇺🇸💙 Dr. Rand Paul has learned well! ♥️🇺🇸💙
And both sides call him crazy. That should tell everyone how corrupt the two parties have become
Retweet
@Paul 6:23
@Paul Not with RINOs. Hardcore Republicans also don't trust him because he's actually Libertarian more than he is Conservative.
@Paul Yea not so much.
its a 1 party system most people just don't get it.
In the words of his dad Ron Paul "it's easy to give away money when it's not yours "
He gets a minimum 174000 a year and for how many years?
@@garynorthtruro I dont know the exact amount he got when he was in Congress, what I do know is that he returned his full salary to the treasury..so yea your "gotcha" comment has just been flushed down the toilet
Nope… another Q’Annon myth….
It is what gets them the name liberal. Liberal with my money. Or as Newt Gingrich recently said, "they like putting the charges on your credit card", the national debt.

Very true, now incoming bots to attack you.
I have a better question if you offer to fund these studies or if you don't give this agency a raise of 29 billion more dollars and instead end homelessness in america for 600000 people with 9 billion to spare. You can end homelessness for 600,000 people and keep this terrible agency while just not giving them a raise.
Rand Paul you are worth every penny we spend for you Thank You Sir for your service
Amen

Rand has been REALLY solid lately. We need more people like him right now to call out the crap!
Seems like he’s one of the very few with common sense.
He is the Last thing, anyone needs. He has been and remains a senseless bullshit artist. Meanwhile, he takes your tax dollars.
Calling out the crap does nothing

I admire this guy, he has been even physically attacked and received death threats but keeps speaking the truth. Some people criticize senators like him, but it takes guts to keep standing for the truth.
He was attacked for being a dirtbag neighbor. A gadfly in the Senate.
He’s been attacked MULTIPLE times. Tyrants haven’t gotten him yet!
It's good for people to stand for something-- unfortunately he's just a charlatan that knows how to push antigovernment and anti-tax buttons. His representation of the "truth" is not truth.

We need 49 more senators like Rand Paul.
99 more
Uh no we don't. He's a moron. He should list which of those are "required" by law and which are paid out during the republican administration. As for the NSF, that's only ONE of the agencies. He should look at the military spending and billions, yes BILLIONS, on required contracts for planes the military doesn't want. He's right we need to reform the process, but he's talking about the smallest of programs.

@@RKLIFE17 I don't think it's pointless.
@@spocksvulcanbrain "I'm al for this toilet that takes photos of my ass, as long as it was a liberal who voted it in. But national security and military? WHAT A WASTE!"
I would like to have a government grant of 2 million dollars to tell the government they are wasting money.
Nope, you have to qualify it with a study, some form of accredited class so universities get the windfall, you know.. be as shady as possible so folks don’t ask questions. At the end, you have to determine that there is no determination to be made without another grant.
Can we get an AMEN? 😁
Odds are high Rand is distorting the cost of the study. He does that kind of thing all the time.
And I want 2 million to watch you get handed that money to do an extensive study on the look you get when handed the money😜
So sick of our government!! I live on a budget and they spend MY money on WHATEVER they want!!! REALLY?!?!

To bad he wasn't this interested in how the money was being spent when Trump was worried about how many times you have to flush your toilet, and how long your shower had to run.. COME ON TRUMP LITERALLY TALKED ABOUT PUTTING MONEY IN THIS TYPE SHIT AS WELL... He was worried cause his water ran so low... Get the fuck outta here Rand Paul you are a hypocrite

this happens because it is a sham, the actual money is going to pay their buddies. A child could figure this out
These ngo's and non profits, teachers unions, end up contributing to the DNC. So its also a way to get campaign donations from taxpayers. RNC also have their connections. Some of it goes to their pockets like you said, thats how they get rich. Talk about wealth distribution, what about the bailouts to large companies, nobody bails out small business, which as you saw during the pandemic, actually fuels the economy. Big business was open and making more money than ever as our economy dropped while small business was closed. Things are getting better, even if artificially, now that small business is open mostly.

@@davidlewis3072 well, they are politicians.

@@hleedina5567 yes, this is called money laundering, even though that's generally a process used by criminals to turn money from criminal activities into legit money. This money is obtained by skirting the limits of legality, but it undertakes a similar process whereby it ends up in the pockets of those distributing, after paying some tolls, by indirect means.

@@stevedewey4059 No but we can correlate our research and work together to solve this issue,When the results of my study on the profits from studying studies is complete, you will do a study to see if the profits from studying studies can be used to more then the advantage of the studier.Im sure thats gotta cost at least 3.5 million, which you will have to round up to 4 million as well.Then we will combine our accumulated talents, buy a couple condos on the beach and study the effects of study profits on local passers by.That study would be very time consuming and exhaustive and most likely we would need the proper materials which dont come cheap.100 million apiece and we will have conclusions that cannot be disputed and will be a very interesting read in any scientific journal.And who knows, we could see a couple good looking women with very dark glasses on that have sticks in their hands to find their way around, and pull at least a few million more apiece on a double blind study.👍

It was true. Just to get my mail from my family I had to bribe the postal workers. The govt officials took it all before it ever reached a person.
I admired other countries who set up foundations like the Dutch and would make sure they left actual workers there to oversee all operations, therefore all money went to helping the people.

They pass these loans and then get fat kickbacks to line their own pockets. Disgusting.
Well you pay taxes so you can have a functioning society the only issue is people vote for these pieces of garbage who take advantage because they believe everything they are told.

If the Fed prints money for the govt, why do I have to pay taxes?
@@gpintado12 The Federal Reserve (which is neither part of the Federal Government, nor is there any reserve) creates money out of thin air and lends it to government to the tune of trillions every year.

Forget "lock them up", these people need a straight jacket. Let's spend some more money to see if it will cure their insanity.
The corrupt politicians who draft these bills probably have someone else write them,
and have them make up and hide the most nonsensical things so it requires no research, no one looks into it, and it costs the most.
When all that money goes to a "pretend cause," it is easier to preserve the full amount of the funding, which goes directly from the institute back to the politicians in the form of kick-backs, and "campaign donations."
And that's where the theft of our taxpayer dollar really occurs.
@@bentonrp OK, so you have actual evidence?
@@garynorthtruro I said probably. And I didn't name any politicians specifically. But when a billion dollars goes missing, and a billion dollars turns up here instead... it just might be the same billion dollars that went missing.

and they completed That bribe with taxpayer money,

EXACTLY CORRECT !!!
@@bentonrp Where is the statement "a billion dollars missing"? Why would anyone bribe with a billion dollars? First and foremost it has to have a source.

When money is being spent on ridiculous projects, it should throw a red flag and be announced publicly around the country so that everyone knows what stupid pointless thing their money is being spent on and this will immediately prompt a vote to cease funding to that corporation or whomever, and require them to redistribute that money to something else that is productive for our society.

@@toddboothbee1361 doesn't matter. Why is the government making this toilet? I'm not saying capitalism is perfect (always better then socialism) but the free market would develop this device faster and cheaper if it was actually needed in the first place. Its not the governments place or right to do so with borrowed money.
@@jerimiahstephens8580 Corporations aren't willing to risk their money for much R&D, which is why the government and the subsidized university programs are the few willing to do the research for laughably little money. It's not easy getting grants for such work. Corporations do proliferation work, marketing and manufacturing the tech for profit. This is the trend most of the time. The toilet, I believe, is the diagnostic device used to monitor texture and chemical composition of crap and/or urine of the patient. (Waste seems to have important medical and biological info in it.) It would save on nursing and other costs, once it is deployed. I don't think socialism is a choice or a danger in this country, though the whacko far left might dream of it. The European style socialized medicine (safety nets, etc) is not a threat to capitalism. I've yet to meet a Democrat billionaire (I've only met three, all Democrats) who was real thrilled about communism or socialism. Same goes for countries like Norway--capitalists to the teeth. But where that system falls short (as with basic research and with unfortunate), Norway tweeks it in such a way that it benefits everyone, even from the perspective of capitalism. It's not a religion. At least, I don't think it is.

Klaus Schwab, founder of the World Economic Forum (WEF), repeatedly mentions that there’s an incoming “cyber pandemic” which will have a worse impact than covid.
The WEF is the same organization that teamed up with John’s Hopkins and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to run a coronavirus pandemic simulation in October 2019, one month before the outbreak began in Wuhan (czcams.com/video/AoLw-Q8X174/video.html ).
The cyber pandemic will likely take place shortly after their simulation (Cyber Polygon), similar to covid in regards to the Event 201 simulation. The power grid will be disabled and digital financial assets will be inaccessible during this time.
The WEF & other transnational globalist NGOs are trying to intentionally collapse the western world and create a global government.
These globalist elites, who nobody voted in, meet behind closed doors to make long-term decisions for the entire world without your say. They have more capital than you could possibly imagine and they’ve already compromised politicians and infiltrated various federal agencies in the western world to destroy us from the inside out. This is what’s commonly referred to as “the deep state”.
Resist tyranny from government officials & become self-sustaining. The Great Reset is here..
we need this guy in the white house‼️
Rand Paul can you please become the Gov. of CA this state is in dire need of actual leadership please!
"Funded" they developed the toilet with 500k and pocketed the rest.
$500k?? for a cheap motion-sensor camera and a servo glued to a toilet bowl????.
lol
has the Dollar REALLY lost THAT MUCH value??.
And Rand does is make stuff up.
My 11 year old can build it for a few dollars using an arduino
less then 500k
Toto sells a smart toilet that costs less than $1k
Is there nothing that can be done to stop this growing insanity? PLEASE!!
Again, *Rand Paul* is *The Man*

"If you add sugar to a tomato it taste better" That's the kind of research my 5 years old nephew can do himself.
Salt
Does sound like a 1st grade science project.
@@MrThfknsamurai They will need some more money to be sure about salt.
I worked at the USDA library...they would bring their food from their garden and give it to us. I told him I don't want that mess you all been testing. The guy that brought the food said we just testing to see if we can make tomatoes square so they can fit on the bread better. I told him, you eat it, I don't want it.
Let's teach people to live within a budget INCLUDING OUR GOVERNMENT!!!
That's virtually impossible because neither side is on board with it. The last balanced budget by any President was submitted by Democrat Bill Clinton; the Congress of the United States simply ignored it, and both Republicans and Democrats were guilty of that. "Money is power," as a wise man once said, and restricting our Congress to a "balanced budget" restricts those politician's power in ways they refuse to countenance.
Basically teach common sense
Those 2 lines summed it all up Thanks! God Bless.
especially our government!!!
But why? We can print money. It's Modern Monetary Theory!
Ffs
I love this. These agencies are corrupt AF. Go Dr. Paul!!!
Thank you Mr Paul
I love rand. Hes always talking about how much money our goverment wastes. Hes actually looking out for our wallets instead of his own.
Can you people share this on Reddit and Facebook?
A Champion
Just a pity he looks like a fool when he tries to catch out Fauci. Did he not have a big problem with a lawsuit in his previous job as an orthodontist? He has picked out obvious flaws to make himself look clever, it's just hard to take him seriously
Thank you, Senator Paul, for your courageous and persistent fight for sanity in our country! God keep you!
OMG . That's ALL I can say "At THIS TIME.". However, I am so PROUD of SENATOR PAUL!
Unbelievable
why cant this guy be president, speaker of the house, senate majority leader, and on the supreme court
Because he isn't corrupt to the core and so they won't let him
Throw Hag Face Soup Pelosi and friends down the fiery pit!
Not enough people voted for him sadly. I did and do not regret that decision.
His father raised a brilliant son to follow in his footsteps.
That he did and the son manages to be more articulate and garners even more support/backing by his unique turns in phrases which wins folks over that may have thought his father a tad 'too far out there'.
@@beentheredoneization yeah, unfortunately people's eyes glaze over when you start to talk about economics because math is hard
This is so upsetting, I wish we had more control on what our tax payer money goes to....
Just awesome Rand. And this is exactly the type of thing we Conservatives need to exploit. The incredible waste of our tax paying citizens hard earned money.
Thanks Rand Paul. It is crazy what they spend money for. Completely idiotic. Common sense is lost on all these spending for stupid things. Makes no sense whatsoever.
Praying for Senator Paul and all brave leaders that put themselves at risk everyday for us.
Right on!
Rand Paul is a power hungry sociopath.
Lol
@@peterstafford4426 ?????
Thanks Gail, I needed a good laugh. 😅😅😅
Thank you for reporting on this, it's pretty good info that other channels wouldn't bother with 👍
This is truly insane and crazy!!!!
Rand Paul, The Voice of Reason. Thank you for speaking up and representing the American People. The more I hear from you, the more I like and agree.
I don’t know if a lot of people connect these expenses to their own bank accounts. Keep at it Rand Paul!
Could someone please eliminate the use of philabustering in politics. I'm questioning why anyone is getting payed for doing nothing. And why george washington warned everyone about political partys in his fair well address.
I would like a grant to do a study to see if grants are an effective way to spend of taxpayer money..
Senator Paul, I can not thank you enough for your services in our US government. However, as a proud American, I find it ironic that our GOVT and their political spending is out of control. Proud citizen, Captain Glynn
👍👍
They've been promising to tackle " fraud waste and abuse " since I was in grade school - 50 years ago. They weren't serious then and they aren't serious now. It's a spoils system and the kickbacks fund their campaigns .All talk
it's not wasteful spending to the people who keep the money.. anyone ever think of asking for an account of where the money is actually spent? guess no way to track that
Rand Paul! What a fighter for truth! And so many insane things he pick on. Its so good to know that people like him is out there and doing this kind of work. I know its many like him these days and i thank God for that. So thank you Rand Paul! You make me belive its possibale for the human race to get on the right track with dignity and compassion for each other and away from the grusome ego-tripping power wealth.
