Senator Paul vows to hold up any spending bill to keep the government open past Sept 30 that includes money for Ukraine

[Delldude]

Oh…so now Conservatives advocate voluntary funding of wars

Meh.............people who are at front of continual funding are the ones who got filthy rich in the corrupt Ukraine.

Take out half of congress if that's ever investigated.

 

[rightwinger]

Show me the declaration of war, and do it quickly before the ICBMs hit, fucktard.

When was the last time we declared war?

We are funding Ukraine to fight our adversary Russia without the expenditure of US troops

The Biden Doctrine is working

The Republicans would not let the Democrats declare War on North Vietnam.

Congress is, again, working against the clock on this. Either they pass a spending bill before the end of the month or there will e=be a government shut down. And, as GOP leader say, the repubs will get the blame for it, if it happens. We all know that when repubs capture one of the chambers and a Dem President is in the WH, a shut down is in the cards.

The reason for that is Democrats never met a dollar they didn't want to spend. In fact, for every dollar you give them they want to spend two.

As the GOP have never met a dollar that they did not want to borrow. The Dem is the mad spouse spending and the GOP is the lousy relative for the lending,

Democrats tax and spend
Republicans cut taxes and keep spending

Rand Paul and MAGA are traitors. And voters are taking note.

Good luck with that

Agree. Not much difference between the two. Not sure why some want to shut down our government over spending on Ukraine though.

The Republican tax cuts actually increased tax revenues. It's a fact that fact deniers refuse to acknowledge.

Another Conservative myth……All tax cuts pay for themselves

You just don't fact check, Independentthinker.

Maybe you could point out which year after the tax cuts revenue did not go up. ​

U.S. Tax Revenue by Year​

Here's a record of income for each fiscal year since 1962. Tax receipts fell off during the recession but started setting new records by FY 2013.3

FISCAL YEAR	REVENUE
FY 2021	$4.05 trillion
FY 2020	$3.42 trillion
FY 2019	$3.46 trillion
FY 2018	$3.33 trillion
FY 2017	$3.32 trillion
FY 2016	$3.27 trillion
FY 2015	$3.25 trillion

So what? That shows revenue, nothing else. And where is the revenue for '21 and '22?

Short term bounce that is quickly lost in subsequent years as revenue is lost and spending remains the same

At a time when we only have responsible spending going on. trump was never held accountable for his most spending ever administration ( most of that before the pandemic even started. ).
