Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) on Monday went off on lawmakers for backing a gargantuan Covid relief bill/Omnibus spending package.
Congress Monday night passed a $2.3 trillion Covid relief/Omnibus bill.
Lawmakers didn’t even read the bill before casting their votes.
The package included $1.4 trillion to fund the government and $900 billion in Coronavirus relief.
The Covid relief includes $600 per American making up to $75,000 and another round of PPP for small businesses.
Americans are only getting $600 after suffering for months due to authoritarian lockdown orders but Congress made sure to send billions of dollars overseas to foreign countries.
Senator Rand Paul along with 5 other GOP Senators voted against the spending package.
Rand Paul blasted lawmakers ahead of the vote on Monday and his rant went viral.

Sen. Rand Paul: “If free money were the answer, if money really grew on trees, why not give more free money? Why not give it out all the time? Why stop at $600 a person? Why not $1,000? Why not $2,000?” pic.twitter.com/mBlQ69UQ1H
