Rand Paul 2028

I want to take a second to thank everyone for the overwhelming early support for my grassroots campaign. My announcement video, and the bill proposal to draft neocons like Lindsey Graham first, are already making huge waves for a third-party candidate in Montana. I couldn’t be more grateful! We went from ~100 followers to thousands in under a week, and we did it with no money. Let’s continue to make history! Critics say I should stop “grandstanding” and talk about more substantive policy. Fair enough — although, I think holding warmongers responsible with some skin in the game should be required if they want to send our sons and daughters to fight undeclared wars. Here are more priorities if I’m elected to the U.S. Senate: 1. I will always demand a congressional declaration of war before committing US troops abroad. As a @DefendTheGuard supporter and former Montana National Guardsman, I will fight against sending Montana’s National Guard or any other state’s militia forces into foreign wars until Congress does its job first. 2. I’ll support @RepThomasMassie’s PRIME Act so Montana-raised beef can be sold directly to Montana families without federal red tape. No more shipping our beef out of state while importing foreign beef to our stores only to comply with federal regulations. We can do it locally! 3. I will seek to codify annual DOGE audits into law for every federal agency. We need real spending cuts and cannot rely on executive orders. 4. I will propose legislation to ban foreign lobbying, AIPAC-style trips, and equivalents for all foreign countries. 5. I will propose legislation to cease all foreign aid spending. As @RonPaul said, “Foreign aid is taking money from poor people in rich countries and giving it to rich people in poor countries.” 6. Because Montana’s Constitution requires single-issue bills in our state legislature, I will also oppose all omnibus packages in DC, and any legislation with anything extra snuck in.  7. I will oppose FISA 702 reauthorization, especially without a warrant requirement. More proposals are coming as I talk to more Montanans!

I’m already warming up for this. I’ll be Rand’s most staunch ally in New Hampshire.

🚨Just in: Kentucky Senator Rand Paul says he is 50-50 on running for President in 2028 He believes he can link the libertarian wing with the business wing to counter GOP populists. Paul said: “We’re thinking about it. I would say 50-50.” Via: CBS News

The Republican primary loss this mid terms will be one of the most stunning defeats of the party in history. A rejection of Trumpism, big government and Lindsay Graham style foreign policy. The GOP will be in shambles and the democrat majority will finally get its successful impeachment. Trump may not serve out his term. We will have a fragmented country with the worst tensions since the 60s. Vance will be so tarnished that he will have great difficulty doing a reset. The only hope will be a reinvention of the party by the Rand Paul / liberty wing. But Dems will gain a lot of momentum for a 2028 Presidential win.

NEWS: Sen. Rand Paul tells @CBSSunday that he's considering a presidential run in 2028, and believes he might be able to link the libertarian wing with the business wing to counter GOP populists. “We’re thinking about it,” he said. “I would say 50-50.” Our interview airs this Sunday. instagram.com/p/DWZZnAeEYic/

Absolute panic in Washington. Marco Rubio whines that Iran is planning to permanently control the Strait of Hormuz and charge a toll. He admits the US is powerless to stop it alone and begs the rest of the world to step in. Iran has completely outsmarted the American empire.

Reminder: @VDHanson has been wrong about every war ever fought in the modern era.

CPAC Chair: How many of you would like to see impeachment hearings? Crowd: *cheers* CPAC Chair: That was the wrong answer...

End the war in Iran. The U.S. should have never started it alongside Israel. This is not at all what the American people voted for and is leading America and the world in the wrong direction and is killing many innocent people.

As the US is dragged into another foreign war, it's worth knowing about the man who forced us into it. Watch the film so revealing that it's banned in Israel. The Bibi Files streaming now on TCN.

@TomJandron Some more candidates to draft

US Ambassador Chas Freeman: "The success of war cannot be measured in terms of damage inflicted on the enemy... We are seeing a repeat of a lesson we should have learned from Vietnam." "The United States is destroying itself as a global power."

#WATCH | On being asked if Pakistan could be a staging ground for any potential American invasion in Iran amid the West Asia conflict, Geopolitical Risk Advisor Colonel Douglas Macgregor (Retd) @DougAMacgregor says, "I doubt it. I think that's a bridge too far for them. If you land down near the border with Pakistan, Baluchistan, and try to march north, that would be the death march of death marches for an army trying to cross these vast territories... We live in a new world. Everybody says this is asymmetric warfare. It's not. You have on one side the United States, which has fielded its World War II force structure. You're looking at the 1944-45 force structure with new stuff, but it's the same force structure... On the other side is the new 21st century force structure... We once had a monopoly on precision back before the turn of the century. We've lost that. That precision capability rests in the hands of people all over the world. And suddenly, mid-range powers that before were largely incapable of presenting resistance can shut down our armed forces... If you tried to land in the southern part of Iran, they would see it immediately. The only question that they would then ask themselves is how long do we wait before we destroy it?... I don't know what the thinking is. Perhaps there is some sort of miracle of engineering that breaks the laws of physics that will allow us to magically insert people without anybody being seen... My assumption is that the laws of physics still apply. As a result, we're going to put a lot of people in a very dangerous place, and we're not going to get the effect from it that we want... I just don't see an easy way out, but I think we're going to try something. And I think it's going to fail." Watch full episode here: youtube.com/watch?v=0lLZmb…

@MarioNawfal 12D chess delusion everyone.

As a negotiator, it's always good to keep the other side confused as to what you're thinking And Trump is mastering this skillset All 'experts' and 'analysts' have no idea what the hell Trump is going to do next, whether they like to admit it or not

Absolute bombshell. Tucker Carlson brutally calls out American Evangelical leaders like Franklin Graham for blindly supporting the murder of Christians in Lebanon and the starvation of children in Gaza. He compares their silence to the Reich Church in Nazi Germany.

@HannahDCox No.

Firmly believe putting more boys in choir and drama would fix what’s going on with them. Get your sons in the arts.

@clashreport For the 9,457th time

Senior Israeli official to N12: In the coming week, there will be a significant escalation in strikes in Iran.

Marjorie Taylor Greene: “If your church leaders and elected leaders tell you the way to bring Jesus back is by killing innocent children of innocent foreign people, in a foreign land you’ve never been to, then you’re believing the lies of wolves dressed in sheep’s clothing.”
