Sen. Rand Paul against approving an aid package for Ukraine; the measure passed 14-3. To License This Clip, Click Here: collection.cnn.com/content/cli...
#corruption is rife in Ukraine yet just give them $$$. No doubt that most of that money will disappear, the #corruption in USA politics will ensure they all get a commission. Thank God for honest Americans, thank you Rand Paul
@@nankerphelge3771 you do realize we had a hand in starting this too right? Go look up Victoria Nuland and her leaked phonecall regarding Ukraine and Crimea, this was years in the making
@@nankerphelge3771 who's .alot an excuse I'm just calling out the hypocrisy on both sides including the US and Ukraine. However if you're just ok with the simpleton version of what's happening I guess that's ok too. It's just sad that no one called out Ukraine for shelling INTO the Donbass during the time the Minsk cooperations we're in play.
We have already given Ukraine enough Aid they're what's up to 100 billion now and no one is expected to pay that back they could have given a million dollars to everyone in America and still had billions left we have to focus on America first
@Really? Well! You think it's smart to send billions to the Ukrainian money laundering operation when we can't even provide formula for our babies? Idiot.
@@jrocks6969 thank you for your support of appeasement policy. It's just fine Japan attack pearl harbor. Hawaii was not a states. We are totally fine not do anything.
@@JohnnyLai lol that’s different, Hawaii is a US State part of our own country. Pearl Harbor is a completely different situation in which our nation was attacked and we responded by defending our own nation. We are not defending our own nation by funding the war in Ukraine. I am completely against the Russian invasion of Ukraine don’t get me wrong, however I firmly believe the west could’ve been more willing to prevent this war in the first place. Why not promise Russia that Ukraine will not join nato? Until Ukraine started their nato bids the relations between Russia and Ukraine were fine. People act like they never got along before this, they were part of the Russian Empire and Soviet Union, and maintained decent yet not perfect relations after the fall of the Soviet Union. It wasn’t until the West got involved in 2014 that things unfortunately changed. I care about the civilians that have been affected by this war, and would’ve rather it not have happened than being part of the escalation. Follow the money, the rest of Europe is still buying Russian oil for gas. That says everything to know about what they really want.
@@truthseeker6306 with your line of SILLY thought we're condemned to repeat our mistakes again and again...because apparently, we can't learn anything from our past. Anyway you can sleep well...count sheep etc. You're obviously not in harms way...
So you're really cool with them getting $40 billion of our tax payer money, adding on to the $30 trillion dollar debt, instead of helping people here? There's a shortage of baby formula and you want Ukraine to get help. Good grief, YOU need help.
@@rickyhyppa7960 Ukraine does not complain about a shortage of formula. They complain about Russia dropping mortars and bombs on hospitals and schools.
@@nankerphelge3771 These are all Ukraine's problems that the Ukrainian government is responsible for addressing. Our elected representatives are elected to represent this country, not Ukraine. But tell me more how great it is to take money from poor people in this country and give it to rich people in Ukraine.
@@rickyhyppa7960 Yes Ricky, it is true that we don't elect the government of Ukraine, you got that part right. Other than that, it seems you are getting your world view straight from garbage spewed by Tucker Carlson. The very first two articles of our constitution gives our elected officials in congress and the White House the power to engage other countries in war and peace time. That is part of their job. Most Americans don't pay any income tax if they make less than $19,000. The average income in Ukraine is around $ 11,000. So, I can't tell you how great it is to take money from poor people in this country and give it to rich people in Ukraine, because that doesn't ever happen.
@@nankerphelge3771 Nah, it's a gentleman by the name of George Washington. We're ignoring his advice of avoiding entangling alliances. Same with Israel. It does us no good and it creates animosity from other countries or groups to us. Your math is absolutely incredible. You're telling me that if I make $22,000 per year, I'm "rich". Buddy, if you make $33,000 per year I don't know how you could survive. I'd rather help people at these income levels get baby formula for their children, as they are my neighbors, then send money to rich people in the Ukraine government. We are $30 trillion in debt and the only thing you can think of is adding on to that. Is this how you run your household? Make $23,000 per year but go out and spend $500,000 per year donating to the red cross?
This is 5 years ago. Which only means he was consistently against Ukraine's fight against russia. If that doesn't tell you that he is on russian payroll, nothing will.
Maybe you should offer up more taxes from you. Like he said how much are you willing to pay? I consider cnn clueless or not willing to talk about the full scope of this situation. It's whay we have people like you that only know what they want you to. Stop being so lazy with that label machine comrade! Lord knows we have heard from the Marxists enough in the west.
Can't imagine a more obnoxious and nauseating person than Rand Paul. Little wonder his neighbor scuffed him up. If I had been there I would have gotten a couple licks in myself.
Hes right..Hes been right and hes still right.
I Totally Agree with Rand,, Totally
After 6 years, we could tell Rand Paul did right thing, but US government kept making mistakes.
A worthy son of a worthy father!
Some things aren't about money, but hey try to tell that to a Republican.
#corruption is rife in Ukraine yet just give them $$$. No doubt that most of that money will disappear, the #corruption in USA politics will ensure they all get a commission.
Thank God for honest Americans, thank you Rand Paul
Ahead of his time, look where we are now!
It's incredible that the same shxt was there already 5 years ago..
Wow CNN shows someone making some sense for once. Thanks senator
Watch some footage of how Russia is conducting this war. Then try to have an ounce of human compassion.
@@nankerphelge3771 you do realize we had a hand in starting this too right? Go look up Victoria Nuland and her leaked phonecall regarding Ukraine and Crimea, this was years in the making
@@RedGreenLugar That is a terrible excuse for the naked aggression and warmongering of Putin and you know it.

Great point
And here we are sending billions more overseas in 2022
Back then, they were still talking about loans, not "aid". How about that?
Aged very well
Anyone asked the Big Guy, what's his cut of that 40B?
Based
Then a Paul president in 2028
A real man of people Rand Paul. . Thanks for ur public service
We have already given Ukraine enough Aid they're what's up to 100 billion now and no one is expected to pay that back they could have given a million dollars to everyone in America and still had billions left we have to focus on America first
Preach Rand Paul ! 👍👍👍
Smart man.
@Really? Well! You think it's smart to send billions to the Ukrainian money laundering operation when we can't even provide formula for our babies? Idiot.
lol CNN was so angry when writing this title
Why does this say it from 5 years ago
Ouch
joe biden should pay the ukraine aid from his wallet, america needs this money for needs here in us
I wonder how much the big guy gets 10% 15%
I admire his consistency.
Risking war with Russia is bad. But it's more dangerous to NOT ACT.
Did we act in 2014 when they invaded crimea nope and nothing happen, world lived fine
@@jrocks6969 thank you for your support of appeasement policy. It's just fine Japan attack pearl harbor. Hawaii was not a states. We are totally fine not do anything.
@@JohnnyLai becuz Usa put a oil embargo on japan like usa did Russia

@@itsonlyamazda4671 I just quoting from the movie iron Lady lol
Rand Paul GOD 🙏 BLess you
There should be a Trump Paul 2024 president ticket.
Yes, because the Republican party still has one small shred of self-respect to throw away.
The only voice in DC ive heard that care about the U.S.
The only voice that can look at the carnage and suffering Russia is causing in Ukraine and think about getting paid back.
Rand Paul, the Neville Chamberlain of the 21st century: "If we give him what he wants, we will have peace......."
Seems a bit silly to compare 2022 with WW2 considering nuclear weapons exist. Don’t you think it’s a bit silly?
@@truthseeker6306 with your line of SILLY thought we're condemned to repeat our mistakes again and again...because apparently, we can't learn anything from our past. Anyway you can sleep well...count sheep etc. You're obviously not in harms way...
Rand Paul for president
Tulsi Gabbard as running mate
Hey! Why stop there. Go all the way to crazy town: Rand and Marjorie. If she can recall what the words Vice President mean that is.
@@nankerphelge3771 No,no, Paul & Gabbard.
I would say Tulsi & Rand, but Gabbard
can't be President, she wasn't born in one the 50 states.
