BREAKING: Senate Votes to Sabotage President Trump's Canadian Tariff Policy With Four Republicans Casting the Decisive Yes Votes...
In a surprising Senate vote, four Republicans defied President Trump by supporting a bill to rescind Canadian tariffs, delivering a significant blow to his policy. This unexpected alliance raises questions about GOP unity and future strategies.
Yea what’s up with Paul? Then again, isn’t every congress member who certified Biden, guilty of treason?
Facts
He’s always been kinda rogue. I don’t care for him.
What's wrong in Kentucky? Is that blackmail central?
I'm used to Mitch, Collins and Murkowski being RINOs and I want to be a fan of Rand Paul for some reason, but F him. Birds of a feather flock together.

Rand Paul is doing the “Principled Libertarian” thing he did the first term. When he voted with Democrats repeatedly in attempts to curtail the Executive Branch, and or frustrate some aspect of Trumps policy he felt violated his beliefs/principles.
He voted in favor of Trump policies often enough. But his support wasn’t a guarantee and often enough he was in opposition throughout the first term.
That's all fine and dandy, but we have a nation to save, and Rand can either get in line and help out or get the hell out of the way.
We are way past individual "principled" blowhards. Yes, principles are great. Yes, we should all live by them.
But in times such as these, we can also look at the bigger picture and think of the morally correct thing to do when situations change.
Trump winning the Nov 5 election didn't save our nation. Trump winning the election gave us the CHANCE to save our nation.
We have much work to do.
Luna needs the same lesson. So does Mike Johnson.
Enough of the hissy fits. Get to damn work!
It’s Congress. The minute they’re able to pull together and accomplish anything or pass policy without at least 4 Bribes, 3 promises of favors, and several months of pulling teeth and bickering.
Is the Minute Hell freezes over and the Devil goes on vacation.
Agree. Knowing the Dems vote as a concrete block, Rand needs to put personal preferences aside and do what’s right to counter those that want to loot the taxpayers and enrich themselves.
There’s a time and place to stand on individual principles but this isn’t one of them. There’s greater good of our nation being at stake. The Dems have proven in every way possible that they want to destroy America. Voting with their communist block is never right. They have no principles, no morals other that destroying all that is good about the U.S.
After seeing what DOGE has uncovered Rand chose to stand with criminals and vote against us. I’m very disappointed in him. Trump comes closer to his Libertarian ideals than any president in memory. Stabbing him in the back at this point in our history is unconscionable.

In a Truth Social post this morning, Trump demanded the four Republicans back off and hold Canada accountable for allowing fentanyl to flow freely into America. He added that by flirting with joining the left, the four GOPers were playing with the lives of ordinary Americans and right into the hands of the Democratic Party.
President Trump further vowed to veto the measure if it ever reached his desk.>
Seems it was a symbolic gesture of sabotage... Only sadly revealing rino is rand paul... I am at a loss for an explanation but hey if he wants figuratively die jumping off now, better now than a time when it not symbolic.
Great points. He is out in the open.
Do an internet search "Kentucky connection to Uranium One" for interesting reading about Paducah. (As a reminder, I think Uranium One is/was a Canadian company.)
Uranium One was Canadian as I recall.
Arrests need to start happening NOW! Old coach use to tell us, “you let a bad team stay in the game long enough, they will find a way to win”.
Same ASSHOLES every time. Republicans are just plain stupid!
Those pedo honeypot pics should have been shown to the public stopping most of this shit long ago. Where is the end of the movie we're going to love?
GD these RINO assholes!
Won’t this have to go through the House and pass there before it can happen?
Yes, and POTUS can also VETO it. It's a dog and pony show to stick a finger in President Trump's eye on Liberation Day.
In my opinion, that makes this even worse. These traitors get nothing out of this other than winning Trump's wrath.
I am not a fan of Presidents using declarations of emergency to garner powers outside the norm when declarations of emergency have become the norm, anyway. However, if it was this easy to rescend said declaration, perhaps that should have been done far more in the past.
This isn't likely to pass the house and if it does Trump can veto it.
It's an attempt to embarrass Trump on Liberation Day.
That's how petty these 4 are.
