“Every single Republican I know decried President Obama’s use of executive power to legislate,” Paul wrote in an opinion piece for Fox News. “We were right then.”

You were completely futile then, Rand. Congress did nothing to stop Obama's rule by executive order. And now, as our border is flooded with illegals, you want to finally crack down on executive orders by a Republican president trying to deal with this emergency? An emergency that the Republicans in Congress refused to deal with for two years, when they had the majority?

No wonder the National Review is supporting Rand Paul on this - they're the champions of futile, all talk and no action conservatism.

Not only did the GOP not stop it they enabled it. Most notably with the Corker Iran deal bill. Fully funded DACA, etc., etc. Where were these brave GOP “constitionalists” when DACA was being funded? Not a one of them demanded a shut down fight over that. Did they? I wonder why?
