Rand Paul slams Paul Ryan over sequestration

Sen. Rand Paul slammed Speaker-in-waiting Paul Ryan over his role in a 2013 budget deal and called into question whether Ryan would stand firm on budget caps during negotiations over the debt ceiling.

“Paul Ryan was instrumental in getting rid of the sequester,” Paul, a Kentucky Republican and presidential candidate, said Monday on "The Glenn Beck Program" on The Blaze Radio Network.

“My question now: Do we really believe that he’s going to use the debt ceiling to get reforms?”

Paul criticized Ryan, a Wisconsin Republican, for joining with Sen. Patty Murray (D-Wash.) in 2013 for a compromise that raised spending levels set by sequestration, the across-the-board budget caps implemented two years earlier when Congress failed to agree on a deficit-reduction plan. Ryan and Murray agreed to raise the caps for military and some domestic spending.

“At the time, I didn’t think it was even enough, but do you know who abandoned it? Paul Ryan,” Paul said of the sequester.

“The people on the right said, ‘We’ve got to have more money for the military,’ and the people on the left said, “We’ve got to have more money for welfare.’ So what did they do? They got together and did the secret handshake, and we got more money for both.”

Rand Paul For President Announces Don Huffines As Texas State Chairman

WASHINGTON, D.C.- Rand Paul for President today announces State Senator Don Huffines as its Texas State Chairman. Sen. Huffines will join a growing list of congressional representatives, such as Reps. Mick Mulvaney (R-SC), Raúl Labrador (R- ID), Cynthia Lummis (R-WY), Justin Amash (R-MI) and Thomas Massie (R-KY), and local business leaders and elected officials in support of Senator Rand Paul for President of the United States in 2016.

Don Huffines was born in Dallas Texas and is a fifth generation Texan. Don's grandfather founded Huffines Auto Group in 1924 in the Dallas area which is still family owned and operated. In 1985, Don and his twin brother Phillip started Huffines Communities, one of the largest real estate land development companies in DFW.

Don is serving his first term during the 84th legislative session. A lifelong true conservative Republican, he has served as a delegate to several Republican state conventions and as a delegate to the 2008 and 2012 Republican National Conventions. Don graduated from UT Austin with a Finance Degree in 1981. He and his wife, Mary Catherine, of 26 years have raised four sons and one daughter, active in Boy Scouts of America and all outdoor activities. His trust in Jesus Christ and the love of his family provide Don his daily compass.

The Huffines and Paul families have been friends for decades and have supported each other through many years. Senator Huffines looks forward to working with Senator Paul throughout this election to become the next President of the United States.

"Strong conservative leadership runs in Senator Rand Paul's veins," said Senator Don Huffines. "He is a true constitutional conservative who speaks his mind, and Americans trust him and value his principled, direct leadership. Senator Paul knows that Americans needs limited government, the freedom to pursue happiness, and liberty without oppression, and he is the best candidate to deliver America to even greater glory. He is providing a vision for all Americans of a free natio....n, with less government, and more liberty. He is unapologetically principled in his beliefs about limiting government and advancing freedom and liberty for Americans, and I am proud to help him become our next President."

Rand Paul to Donald Trump: ‘Get out of the race’

BOULDER, Colo. -- Taking full advantage of a restive and swollen debate press corps, Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) held a brief roundtable with supporters at the University of Colorado, then indulged a media question about Donald Trump's sagging poll numbers.

"I think maybe he should get out of the race," Paul said.

The students, organized by the Ron Paul-founded Young Americans for Liberty, had no horse race questions. Rand Paul, accompanied by his wife, Kelley, sat between a dozen or so libertarians, a wall of cameras, and a few more students listening intently. (Not everyone in the dining yard was so interested; one student could be told telling a reporter that his name was "Hunter S. Thompson.")

The senator, who has trumpeted that his organization on campuses -- Students for Rand -- has passed 300 chapters, stuck mostly to his familiar patter about the need to reform the Republican Party and roll back the state.

He harked back to a back-and-forth in an earlier debate, when New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, a GOP presidential rival, said he'd end Colorado's experiment with legal marijuana. "I'm not an advocate for drugs, I'm an advocate for freedom," Paul said of legal marijuana. "This has been my beef with Jeb Bush. I don't fault him for smoking pot in high school. What I do fault him is being for laws that will put kids in jail."

When he faced the media's cameras, Paul said that he would return to Washington on Thursday and "commence the filibuster" against the debt limit deal handed to House Republicans on Tuesday.

Talks about his "cut, cap and balance" amendment that he's unveiling again to hedge this debt ceiling raise which is pending and also how the establishment republicans are pretty much in lock step w/ the left in terms of more, unlimited spending - which is what this debt ceiling hike does this time which is a first ever.

Rand Paul Is Right: The Fed Is Increasing Inequality With Its Low Rates

Last night’s Republican debate was supposed to be about economic policy, but instead it was, once again, more about moderators asking gotcha questions. A few candidates managed to get in mentions for their tax plans, entitlement reform or over-regulation, but for the most part we learned little because the questions didn’t seem designed to educate the viewers about the candidate’s ideas for moving the country forward. There was, however, a great moment of economic clarity, thanks to Rand Paul, on the surprisingly overlooked role the Fed has played in increasing economic inequality.

Virtually all economists agree that the Fed’s low interest rates have been responsible for inflating stock market values. By reducing the returns to savings accounts, certificates of deposit and bonds, the Fed has intentionally driven ordinary investors to increase their investment allocation to the stock market, thereby boosting stock returns. Because people with more wealth tend to own more stock, those higher stock prices have led the rich to gain much more than the poor and middle class.

Low interest rates have meant low borrowing costs for large corporations with direct access to capital markets. This low-cost borrowing has boosted corporate profits which also flow mostly to the wealthy.

There's a test vote to invoke cloture at 1 am but I doubt most of the old farts will be awake at that point. Rand spoke briefly this afternoon but is likely coming back tonight and going for broke.

Where did I read that there are 1.8 times as many people in government as there are in the work force? What stupidity! Just to keep people under their thumb, rather than being free.

11/5 Thunderclap Won't Send Out Unless we Get More Supporters (101 Left - Social Reach = 178k) for Rand

We are in the final week before the Nov 5th money bomb. I just wanted to stress that our Thunderclap campaign will not send out unless we succeed in reaching more supporters. This is very important in making sure as many people know about the money bomb as possible. We need to do a better job in promoting this. From now until Nov 5th, try to get as many Rand supporters as possible to join the thunderclap campaign here...

Nov 5th Thunderclap Campaign: https://www.thunderclap.it/projects/...bomb?locale=en

Post about it on Facebook, tweet it, tell your friends in person. Just do whatever you can to help spread the word and promote this. As we get toward the final days, our social media reach will skyrocket, but only if you all help out.

Quote
For anyone unfamiliar with Thunderclap... you sign up with your Facebook or Twitter account and on November 5th they will post one message advertising the money bomb from everyone at the same moment.

The message includes a link to Rand's site to donate and the hashtag #StandWithRand, and the idea is that when a large number of people all post the same message at the same time it's able to break through the noise of a social media feed and be seen. You can customize the message that will be sent... just make sure to leave the link and hashtag.

We need at least 250 people to sign up before the 5th in order for the message to be sent.

It's free, it's simple, and takes less than a minute to join. And it will promote the money bomb to the feeds of hundreds of thousands of people.

...https://www.thunderclap.it/projects/32635-rand-paul-11-5-money-bomb?locale=en

All you Americans (that like to talk) have to answer for this and move it further. - just like I have.

Roll Call: Sen. Rand Paul Goes Viral, Thanks to Sen. Mike Lee

Rand Paul’s late-night budget deal filibuster bid picked up an unexpected boost from fellow Republican Sen. Mike Lee of Utah.

Lee posted to his Facebook page a clip of the Kentucky presidential hopeful expressing on the Senate floor his opposition to the budget deal, which also suspended the debt limit beyond the 2016 elections.

“The mainstream media did not want to tell the truth about what was in this budget deal. But in the era of social media, you can no longer hide votes for bad policy in the middle of the night,” Lee said in a statement. “The American people will find out.”

...

The segment of Paul raising a point of order that the agreement, which was signed into law Monday, broke the budget rules, was viewed more than 18 million times by Monday afternoon.

...

By comparison, Facebook spokesman Andy Stone said White House videos released through Facebook about the State of the Union reached some 13.5 million viewers.

Rand Paul: Don't send U.S. ground troops to Syria

NEWTON, Ia. — U.S. Sen. Rand Paul said Saturday he is not ready to "send our sons and daughters back to a war in Iraq" but is "not completely for doing nothing" to fight the Islamic State.

The Kentucky senator spoke to members of the Jasper County Farm Bureau in Newton before taking a tour of a pipeline farm in Reasnor. Paul touched on a variety of rural issues in front of the small group but was firm on his stance on Syria following the news that the Obama administration will send 50 special operations soldiers to consult with rebel groups fighting ISIS.

"The fighting on the ground needs to be done by the people who live there," he said. "The Sunnis will have to rise up and say 'enough is enough.'"

What made America great?

I’ll give you a hint–it wasn’t free stuff. It wasn’t free education. It wasn’t free healthcare. It was the freedom to thrive–the freedom to be left alone.

America is the land people set sail for–to get away from big government, to find freedom, to make their fortune. We have to first understand what made America great before we can even think about influencing the rest of the world.

Some candidates for President like Hillary Clinton and Sen. Marco Rubio think we should spread American style-freedom and democracy around the world.

But is hasn’t worked out so well. In Hillary’s war in Libya the so-called freedom fighters won, but now chaos and jihadists rule. Our ambassador was assassinated and now ISIS is a serious threat.

In Iraq, over 12 years after the toppling of Hussein, chaos still rules.

Clinton, Bush, and Rubio also want to topple Assad in Syria. My fear is that if that happens, ISIS will take over all of Syria.

The world had great hope when the Arab Spring began, but the Arab Spring quickly became an Arab Winter as chaos and war and radical Islam followed.

Why did revolution lead to freedom in America but not in the Middle East?

How did America remain stable with continuous government while throwing off the yoke of the king? A big part of the answer is that we threw off the king but kept our local government and our religious and legal traditions.

So why didn’t the Arab Spring end in a constitutional republic like ours?

For starters, the Middle East had no Magna Carta moment. Eight centuries ago, our forefathers came together at Runnymede to begin limiting the power of the monarch. Ever since we have jealously guarded against tyranny and limited centralization of power. The Middle East has no such tradition. In fact, the Middle East, for the most part, knows only despotism.
