Senators voted 51-48 Wednesday to reject the national emergency Trump declared earlier this year to justify his plan to slap 25 percent tariffs on Canadian imports. The vote took place hours after Trump delivered remarks from the Rose Garden rolling out his latest plans to slap new tariffs on a wide range of products.

Republican Sens. Susan Collins, Mitch McConnell, Lisa Murkowski and Rand Paul joined all Democrats in backing a resolution from Virginia Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine that would end that national emergency. Another Republican, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, co-sponsored the measure and voted in favor.

Four very brave Republicans. These are very regressive tariffs that would millions of Americans. I admit I surprised Sen. Paul. I knew that McConnell stiff arm him.

Meaningless twaddle.

 

[BackAgain]

Good to have the House!

If even a whack-job like Paul can see how fucked up this is...

Both Collins and Murkowski represent states that a long and common with Canada. McConnell and Paul represent a state heavy with Burbon distillers. A tariff on Kentucky booze will hit. Remember Joe Kennedy made his fortune during Prohibition by bringing Canadian booze across the border. He was an asshole about to. He faced down Capone, who wanted his territory.

Murkowski only gt re-elected because of the scheme of ranked choice voting, which eventually will be declared unconstitutional; one man, one vote.

 

[Anathema]

It’s time to start kicking some motherfuckers from the Senate and House out of the Republican Party.

Hey....Paul ain't SCOTUS....Idiot.

I hope all those ant-tariff people are anti-corporate tax and excise taxes.

No? I'm shocked! Not.

Voting is a states right.

Voting is a states right.

Some of the rules seem like a fix to get a candidate elected. Her family is a power in Alaska. She lost a primary to a tea party person and then ran as a third candidate and got write ins from Dems in the state. This is corruption.

Never said he was, kiddo.

 

[Leo123]

Never said he was, kiddo.

You seem to think he knows more than Trump though. But then, how could he? As you said he's not Potus...'kiddo'
