Hold the phone... I agree with Ron Paul?

Rand Paul says he will not support Trump’s plan to declare an emergency & use the military to deport migrants: “I think it’s a terrible image. That’s not what we use our military for. We never have. I will not support an emergency to put the Army into our cities.”

Until he 🧇s

For now. We'll see how long this sentiment lasts.

timmadison.bsky.social•112 days ago

As long as you never agree with Ayn Rand.

jimc999.bsky.social•112 days ago

Until he reverses this stance in a week or two, perhaps you do, Johnny Blue Jeans!

Strange days indeed

It's a weird day when I still chuckle and enjoy the actions of Rand Paul's neighbor and yet agree with Rand about anything. What a weird day it is.

He still looks like the love child of Danny Kaye and Boxcar Willie.

onenjeni.bsky.social•112 days ago

I will never not see that now.

streak2442.bsky.social•112 days ago

First time ever for me. It still feels dirty to me that I agree with him...

jodybundrick.bsky.social•112 days ago

Whaaaaaaaa?!?!

Not to mention Eisenhower tried this on a smaller scale just for Mexican migrants and it was a disaster and a stain on American history.

bwcpatrick.bsky.social•112 days ago

Operation (something I will never say) if I recall.

futureheadlines.bsky.social•112 days ago

You are correct. Terrible name.

bwcpatrick.bsky.social•112 days ago

It's on brand.

hondongerard.bsky.social•112 days ago

Rand is the big toe the creeps dip in the water before they jump.

red-foremans-foot.bsky.social•112 days ago

He we roll over like the rest of them.

I was trying to explain to my Australian colleagues how this just wasn't supposed to be a thing. Felt complete exasperation in the moment.

Even a blind squirrel will find an acorn every now and then

I think we need some sort of BrokenClock tally… we could call it the Ticker.

michaelianblack.bsky.social•112 days ago

Ooops - Rand. I will never agree with Ron. (Or Rand.)

drgraymatter.bsky.social•112 days ago

Easy mistake to make. They are like Betty and Veronica. Just the hair changes. Rand’s comes off to make it easier.

tomowens67.bsky.social•112 days ago

I was about to say...

dangillotte.bsky.social•112 days ago

I believe it's Rond Pal.

missypew.bsky.social•112 days ago

Rand...Ron...Potato...Potatoe.

turntxblue.bsky.social•112 days ago

He is a libertarian obstructionist so 🤷‍♀️.

But he will be all in on giving the country to Russia.

jon-clemens.bsky.social•112 days ago

Such things can make a mind wobble. I still remember my shock and utter confusion when I heard Pat Buchanan on TV speaking out against invading Iraq. Sure, our motivations may've been completely different, but, fascinatingly, we found ourselves on the same side. (I still feel a little dirty.)

A broken clock... and all that...

brazzybraz.bsky.social•112 days ago

No, you (and I) may agree with what Rand Paul is saying here, but he'll fall into line as he always does. In the end, I agree with some of what he says, but none of what he does.

tessachambers.bsky.social•112 days ago

Imagine where we at now when this dude sounds reasonable. #crazytimes

undrtehstairs.bsky.social•111 days ago

Buddy, a few months ago I agreed with Dick Cheney.
