Sen. Rand Paul Blocks $40B for Ukraine: ‘We Cannot Save Ukraine by Dooming the U.S. Economy’
(Worthy News) – “My oath of office is to the U.S. Constitution, not to any foreign nation,” Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) said in a speech on the Senate floor Thursday, as some of his fellow Republicans urged immediate passage of a bill — this one totaling $40 billion — to fund U.S. assistance for the situation in Ukraine.
“We cannot save Ukraine by dooming the U.S. economy,” Paul said, noting that inflation in the United States is now running at a forty-year high. “Inflation doesn’t just come out of nowhere. It comes from deficit spending,” he said.
Paul noted that is the second spending bill for Ukraine in two months, and it is three times larger than the first. Since 2014, he said, “the U.S. will have authorized roughly $60 billion in total spending for Ukraine.” [ Source: CNS News (Read More…) ]
