NO MORE MONEY TO UKRAINE!
Sen Paul should've received a standing ovation...but it seems there's not many others working in DC.
He voted against infrastructure bill, but asked for millions is said bill. He’s a turd
this is why we must become state nationals, constitutional citizens of the united states of America. Revoke consent for the IRS to take your money.
@@mrniusi11 lol buddy I support you but you got a rough road coming
There was no standing ovation because these speeches are given when there is nobody in the chamber. There is no discussion or debate.. they just keep on spending other people’s money.
Senator Paul gave a wonderful speech. It should give everyone pause. The man is Presidential material. He understands what the founders tried to instill in our Constitution.
Amen
He can make more difference in the Senate.
Just because large groups in society are super greedy and would not even hire a taxi to take their dying mothers to a hospital, maybe, the poor show ask why they pay for police to protect the super wealthy, can't they afford their own body guards.

I am so glad I have heard this speech. Rand Paul is right! I don’t support giving crack pipes to addicts either! Giving more money to this bunch of greedy fools is the same thing. YOU CANT HAVE MY MONEY!
government just throws the money away.
Harass then throw the money away.
Printing Trillions while harassing struggling Americans.
Use government airplanes to harass people of disability.
Actually, you're wrong. The greedy fools _will_ have your money, or they will come to your home or place of business and either take it from you or kill you.
In many cases, if they aren't already, they will simply deduct it from your income and you will have no recourse. For they will take it from you, or they will kill you, they will not be deprived.
Yes, they may spend it frivolously, but they _will_ have it, because if they let you keep your money, they will have to let others keep their money, and where would we be if we let that happen?
The founding fathers left only one option, and that's revolution. For each time a great, prosperous nation is founded, immediately there are those who rise up and attempt to either overthrow it or undermine it, making it something that it wasn't. It happened in Athens, Rome, and Washington, D.C.
Thank you so much Senator Rand Paul, God Bless
I absolutely agree with Sen. Rand Paul!Thank you!
I agree with you Olga And Sen. Paul in JESUS NAME AND AUTHORITY ♦️
Please, please keep fighting Rand Paul. You shouldn’t be alone on this! Where’s his support from his constituents?
Yeah, but Davy Crockett didn't need to get 10% for the big guy.
@@arlenehenry1097
And it's NOT RIGHT either !
Haha I see what you did there 😂🤔
The Big Guy isn't the only politician making money from the Ukraine. Pelosi's son, Romney's son, Biden's son and others get paid handsomely!
Rand Paul is an American hero 🇺🇸
BECAUSE IT'S NOT THEIR MONEY TO SPEND, CONGRESS DOESN'T GIVE A DAMN. :( :(
EXCELLENT speech, sir!
Anyone who votes yes for this with the taxpayers money should be jailed!!! This is complete insanity. Drain the Swamp!!!!!!
Yup , Drain The Swamp!!!!!!!
The Swamp doesn't want to be drained. They proved that when Trump tried to pull the plug.
Rand Paul is right with every point That he makes here. But he’s consistently right about most things… Even when it’s things that people don’t want to hear!
why don't we make this guy the republican leader. get rid of mitch mcconnell
@@Sanyu-Tumusiime
Mitch McConnell should of been gotten rid of YEARS AGO !! He's a two face RINO
@@bigdeal6852 i agree. we need a new leader.
I agree Rand Paul would be a great republican leader!
@ J.J Buckmaster: Yes , you are right! Paul has a bright mind! and he always think analytically! he is a man of integrity ! amen !
Makes all kinds of sense.
Thank you Rand Paul
He makes more sense than all the rinos combined. Rinos are like democrats who will do anything to stay in their positions🎯😖
Deep State gonna Deep State.... until we grow some balls and break it up
They truly are..
I really like Rand ..he is an honest person and truthful
Thank you Dr Paul. We will make sure you win in November.
Perfectly said SEN PAUL I AGREE 💯🎯
I enjoyed your commentary and I agree with you.
Thank you Senator Rand Paul. Don't approve one thin dime for the Ukraine until America's southern boarder is once again secure.
Rivers hopefully you would read about the lead up to WW#2 and the Hitler creep. When 200,000 US body bags return to the US and one is your relative remember the Ukrainians are fighting and dying protecting democracies and dictators like Putin and Trump would stomp you in the ground on any day.
Sen. Rand Paul is awesome 😎😎😎
He is right 💯,no more for over seas countries , cut the fat spending !!
we must become state nationals, constitutional citizens of the united states of America. Revoke consent for the IRS to take your money.
Thank you Senator Paul, well said!!!
Thank you Rand Paul! You are right!
Rand Paul has common sense where as most don’t.
The US would not have national debt if the super rich even averaged paying 20% on their incomes. Maybe a flat tax on income and wealth accumulation would be a smarter idea in a just society, but we will never have such a state.
Well said! 🇺🇸😎👍
Give hunter to ukraine
With 10% for the Big guy I'm sure.
You go Senator Rand! You tell them!
Wow! What a speech!
Amazing speech!!
Charity begins at home.
He has a point. I wish that this was titled, "Rand Paul Objects to Increasing National Debt"
Very good speech Senator Paul !
10% for the big guy.
10 % for The DumbAssCrap Donkeys, Democratic Party,
That was a well-spoken speech absolutely true good job Rand Paul
Well said I agree 100%...America First not last!!
Well said!
Just think, AOC is sitting there like "omg this guy thinks he's sooooooo smart but like, I'm smarter"
Right. Lol
Yeah, but she in the House of Representatives, not the Senate.
The one and only true Statesman.
We are living in the movie Idiocracy....it gets more ridiculous everyday.
I used to think I wasted my time watching that movie. Now I’m glad cause you are right.
@@Silentnocturnes It was certainly a prophetic movie.
Being right never seems to matter anymore.
Cut cut cut all that crap but leave the military budget alone they need it since BOBO Biden left 85 billion dollars worth of their equipment in AFGHANISTAN
This spending on Ukraine cannot continue! This war will go on and on and expect Americans to keep spending! Enough already, we already know the outcome. Lives lost cities desimated and the outcome will be the same except america will be poorer!
Rand paul should run for president
Thanks , Sen . Rand Paul , you doing right .
Is he the only senator that stands up for what is right? Looks like it from where I'm standing (in UK).
One of a VERY small few
I'm so glad that Mr. Rand Paul brought up that story of Davy Crockett ! I heard that from a Conservative history teacher about 20 yrs. ago. I remember when some of my coworkers would talk about some ot the best Congressmen we ever had and I would mention Davy Crockett was one of the best we ever had, and they would look at me like WHAT ? Because they would name off people of recent time. 🤣. But I will say as for recent time goes it would be
Rand Paul ! He is a TRUE decent American Constitution Congressman !
Thank You Mr. Paul ! Your Dad raised you well !
Gift to the Ukraine = gift to armaments manufacturers; more of the transfer of public money into private hands
And to the politicians. Ukraine get couple hundred bucks.
Rand is the only consistent politician in America.
Keep fighting Rand Paul!!!! Proud you are my Senator 👊
Thank you Rand ! Our government has gone rogue and ARRESTs must be made to gain trust!
You misspelled 'executions'.
Agreed.
Agree
I agree, senator.
excellent job!
Thank you, Rand Paul! The only smart person in government
If all of the people in this country don't start calling your elected officials and demand all this spending stop we will not have a country to take back in 2024. Just the interest on the debt is 40% of all federal tax revenue now.
@eric kanter that's just a foolish statement. We can stop it and have 100% of the National debt paid off in 12 to 15 years.
All it takes is freezing government spending at current levels. Most people don't realize 60% of Government spending was set up as mandatory spending by Bill Clinton. Mandatory spending gets a 7% increase every year regardless of what congress does. This must stop now. Programs like CHIP which was replaced by Obama care still have a 100 billion-dollar-a-year budget. And it gets a 7% increase every year. We have hundreds of programs that don't serve a purpose other than taking up tax dollars.
We can fix it but the people will need to get serious and push Congress to do it. And stop expecting the Gov to take care of you.
They'll nod their heads and reply with sweet talk, but then keep right on going with the spending. Best way to fix it is to replace them. That's what Kentucky did with Rand Paul's spot. Now they need to replace Mitch McConnel. There are many others that need to be replaced, for example Susan Collins of Maine and John Cornyn of Texas. If Rand Paul can get elected, so too can other states elected leaders of like mind.
A country to take back from whom, the phrase take back our country sounds powerful but what does it really mean?
@william woods that's not a easy question to answer because we don't yet know the outcome. But at this point the country isn't run by the citizens or its elected politicians. The WHO has more control in the US than the Federal Government. A small handful of very wealthy people are controlling everything from local governments to foreign policy. So the best answer is to take it back from tyranny. That is where we are. If you think about it you realize we no longer follow the US Constitution. Not 1 amendment is upheld anymore. We have slid down the slippery slope.
@@jamesmcd71 I appreciate your response and your identification reference
Is he the only one that blocked the money?
There are 11 senators now against it.
Thank you
thank you someone out there got good common sense spend their own money not ours
Yep, that is what Joe and the democrats do best! Great job
Let’s see….there’s Rand Paul, there’s Jim Jordan, there’s Chip Roy……stand-outs is what they are…..
Thank you for that speech wondering if it’s going to fall on deaf ears or whether some members of Congress might actually listen to some thing that makes sense
It will. There is no shadow of a doubt. When the house is on fire, don't expect a miracle. It's up to you to figure out how to save what's left and plan how to rebuild.
seems to me that we need to focus our attention on fuel and food shortages in the homeland rather than throwing a bunch more money overseas. Americans are getting the green weenie again.
Lol
Yes Rand Paul is right, How refreshing to hear common sense coming from the ruling class.
Very good speech Senator Paul,maybe you get the Bidens to donate some of the millions the got and A a few other like pelosi,waters Feinstein etc..ect
Since we've borrowed time & again frome China, we, our grandchildren will pay for this.
Rand Paul was succinct when
He emphasized the $30 Trillion
debt is REALLY a responsibility.
True, the Dems tug at our heart and are generous about
sending this AID. Rising prices
result in INFLATION. we support your sentiment---Be
fiscally responsible!
40 billion while many Americans are homeless.
Payday loan 400 percent that's just fine with Nancy. More money for the family. Harress those pour people tell the cows come home
America belongs to me. We have stollen the election and taken it over. You want your country back you will have to fight for it. Ex President of Italy and Nancy know how to steal an election. Good thing my dad and Uncles who fought in WW2 didn't say people will do what they do when the Italians were defeated. They lost many friends so Nancy can take over America. What a peace of work Nancy is. So much money 💰 so little time. Wake up America Nancy and her friends are soaking you at the pump. Nancy needs more money.
Nothing will change until we start naming names and calling people out publicly. Who's studying selfies? Who approved the funding for selfies studies?
Thank you mr Paul I cant afford to give Ukraine my money although I sympathize with the tragedy that happened enough already
I’m sure some of them can come up with the money quite easily
Good morning everyone! Rand Paul is a man of Integrity ! God bless him , and bless his family amen ! He is a faithful man of God ! ❤❤❤🙏🏼‼️👍👍👍
Such a good video! Yes, take from other spending to pay for this war with Ukraine and Russia. Yes, asks the American people how we want our tax dollars spent. Yes, let Ukraine BORROW the money it needs to fund their war.
🥶 40 billions Ukraine America is in pieces Great Rand Paul you protected America 🇺🇸 👏
This makes every truth I’ve heard the best! Americans will pay for this debt. We are strapped now. Make America Great is the best Campaign slogan ever. Now we need someone in office to Make America Great Again. Trump, are you listening. Vote Trump 2024! Impeach Biden now.
My man don’t miss 🔥🔥🔥
A man who understands the constitution!
He earns respect every time he speaks
That is correct Rand Paul… THANKYOU for standing with and for the people!!!
Thank You Senator Rand Paul for speaking out!
I hate big spenders.
Ukraine is doing okay and it looks like they will win, why do we need to sent them more money?
Because they are blackmailing the Bidens.
The only reason they look like they might win ( they aren't going to unfortunately) is because of all the funding and supplies they receive.
What wise men. Both Rand Paul AND Davey Crockett.
I love Davy Crockett. Thank you Rand Paul for that analogy
no reason to send more money. good decision Mr Paul
No questions asked.
Wow never heard of these remarks from Davy Crockett - thank you Sen Rand for bringing this to the record.
That was great.
This congress needs to be stopped, they are out of control.
40,000,000,000.00 dollars
That can buy lots of gas and baby formula
Thats all folks!
Thank you for speaking true history.
Thank you, all this spending will cause our country to collapse.
This should be required listening across every television station in America!
Man, he is so right!
40 billion huh? Ever herd of kick backs? The one's pushing this crap has something to gain from it.
He is 100% right
We will all pay attention to those that vote yes to this another spending bill.
He means well. However, nothing gets accomplished. All talk. Americans last
He’s one person doing what many others should be doing. It’s our money they are spending.
This is nefarious! We cannot afford this! The American people are suffering! This is wrong!
Damn Rand is always on point whether people want to hear it or not; he’s consistent and right on. Top shelf sir!
A refreshing blessing we have through Senator Rand Paul bringing forth this article from time past. It certainly relevant of the time, in a grand way it is necessarily relevant for today. We urgently need our representatives whom are hired by us to do the work for US, WE THE PEOPLE. Thank you Senator Rand Paul.
