I stand with President Trump on the need for a border wall and stronger border security, but the Constitution clearly states that money cannot be spent unless Congress has passed a law to do so. https://t.co/BZLfS3A9Pu— Senator Rand Paul (@RandPaul) March 14, 2019

Obama Spent 150 Billion on Obamacare Without Congressional Authorization.

Obama spent $150 billion dollars to shore up insurance companies that insure the poor. That move appears to be illegal because Congress refused to appropriate the money to do it.

Federal judge rules Obamacare is being funded unconstitutionally

Obama Bypasses Congress, Gives $1.5 Billion to Muslim Brotherhood

During a trip through Colorado in December of last year, President Obama spoke of his intention to implement his economic policies with or without the approval of Congress. Said Obama, “And where Congress is not willing to act, we’re going to go ahead and do it ourselves.” It now appears that such a mindset applies not only to economic matters but to the distribution of foreign aid as well–in particular, foreign military aid for the Muslim Brotherhood, who now hold the reigns in Egypt.

Translation:

Obama spending Billions of Dollars of Taxpayer funds without Congressional Authorization to support Terrorist Nations and Terrorists in General was just fine and dandy, but How Dare President Trump try to put the DRUG CARTELS out of Business.

I’ve been on the fence over Rand Paul for a long time. His efforts for pro-life, which I now realize were for effect only, sucked me in for too long. Name one single, measly accomplishment for pro-life. You can’t. He’s lost me for good. And I hope I’m not alone.

Apparently this a—hole never heard of the “Implied Powers” of the president. The president has power to enforce the law and fulfill his duties, even when such powers are not expressly granted by the Constitution. If it is granted that the president has the responsibility to protect the states from invasion, then it necessarily follows that he has the power to do what is necessary to protect the states. That would involve spending money of course, no matter what he decided to do.

Some of us haven’t forgotten the real nature and real agenda of this man (loosely termed).
