Rand Paul just shat on the dems and rinos $40 Billion Ukraine Aid Gibsme.

Daily Caller: Rand Paul Just Hit The Brakes On $40 Billion Ukraine-Aid Package.

Republican Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul stymied efforts by the Senate to pass a $40 billion military and humanitarian aid package for Ukraine.

Paul blocked the votes Thursday, objecting to an amendment vote on his proposal by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and Republican Leader Mitch McConnell.

The Kentucky senator wants the aid bill’s language to be changed to require an inspector general to oversee spending on Ukraine. Schumer and McConnell’s offer would have required Paul’s provision to get 60 votes in order for the amendment to the bill to occur, according to The Hill.

Under the Senate’s rules, it only takes one senator to object, the outlet reported.

Schumer blasted Paul, saying the senator was acting as if it was “my way or the highway.”

"Schumer blasted Paul, Schumer blasted Paul." Oh - it's different now, eh, from when Schumer blocked John Cornyn and Richard Blumenthal's bi-partisan Prescription drug bill from passing. Oh, but's different now, huh Chucky. Tough shit. Seethe. Cope.

McConnell doing his usual worthless, spineless performance of a politician. Step aside Mitch and let a real Conservative do your job.

Good for Senator Paul.

I hope this bill dies. It shouldn't have gotten this far, it shouldn't have ever been created.
