Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul has found himself cut out of negotiations over his own committee’s portion of Trump’s “big, beautiful bill.”

So Rand Paul's vote is expendable. Are yall sure you have the votes if Murkowski, Collins, and McConnell are against the bill too?

I’m from Kentucky. There’s no way I’ll ever forget, or live long enough to forgive.

When you sell your soul to MAGA, like Paul did after his 2016 Presidential Run, you cannot expect that they will give you refund when you try to buy it back. Enjoy your irrelevancy, #SenatorPaul; you deserve it.

It's simple, he didn't get his hunk of pork for his vote & they didn't need his vote. Easy peasy

Trump pisses on congress almost daily and all they do is take it with hardly a whimper. No political party has ever sunk this low.

It’s not “trump’s bill” it was a bill written by project 2025. It is an unattainable mess with bloated smaller bills of their lobbyists agendas. These addendums would’t see the light of day if was introduced legitimately.

Sidelining Rand Paul is a good thing. He’s useless. But this bill is worse.

Yup, USA democracy is more and more selective… That’s how autocrats operate: an increasingly small group of people take decisions. Until it’s an autocracy. But don’t let that stop you, please, do go on and let the GOP smother all your liberties.
