No Bottom To Rand Paul's Cynical Hypocrisy

 

The people of several states, including the Commonwealth of Kentucky, were devastated by the tornadoes and severe storms that swept through their communities on Friday (see photos below). Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear (D) has been proactive in getting Federal emergency disaster relief. Then there's Kentucky's far right, nihilistic, wanker clown of a Senator, Rand "Ayn Rand" Paul, who sent this letter off to the White House, begging for Federal assistance:

The fact is that Paul, in his despicable two terms in the Senate, voted against disaster relief for other states, like Florida, Texas, New Jersey and New York. He also voted against aid to Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria devastated the island in 2017.

Federal disaster relief will go to Kentucky and the other affected states, as it should. But it would be nice if President Biden would respond to Paul's letter by pointing out that, while Paul now requests relief for his state, he's been maliciously consistent in his opposition to aid to other states after natural disasters. List each example of Paul's opposition, but let him know that, thanks to Gov. Beshear, relief is on the way, so take a seat. Oh and STFU when it comes to disaster relief henceforth. Copies to every media outlet in Kentucky.
