Rand Paul Breaks with Trump on Speaker Johnson: Not Sure There’s a Difference Between Him ‘and the Democrats’

‘Speaker Johnson was incredibly wrong’

EXCERPT:

PAUL: "FISA doesn’t obey the Fourth Amendment, and so Speaker Johnson was incredibly wrong. He broke the tie. He voted with the Democrats. Here we have the leader of the Republicans in the House votes with the Democrats against a warrant requirement. We also have Speaker Johnson voting for the spending package, once again with the majority of the Democrats. As I see it now, I’m not sure there’s a difference between Mike Johnson being in charge and the Democrats being in charge. The debt, the deficit this year will be $1.5-2 trillion, and that’s Mike Johnson’s bill. He put it forward. He supported it with a minority of Republicans, with the majority of Democrats. This is not using the power of the purse, this is abdicating the power of the purse."
