There’s Rand Paul again, just like his father, bringing up the Constitution as if the Constitution matters to our government.

Did you hear the question where Rand asked: “Do you like men?”

No sir, but I did hear the obammywannabe senator ask the christianinnameonly Pompeo about previous statements he had made about mooslimbs and gay marriage, and watched Pompeo fold like a cheap lawn chair……he’ll probably get confirmed because he fits right in with the spineless snakes running this country into the ground.

Being cynical or complacent about Presidential abuse, and Congressional complicity in abusing the Constitution is about as stupid and idiotic as a Jew in 1933 saying, “Well, Hitler just likes to blow off steam.” (Or a patriot in Boston, when the British shot protestors, “Well, they do get carried away once in a while.”).
You should ask yourself: If Rand Paul has the courage to demand the President and Congress do their duty, does my congressman? And if not, am I going to let him know it?

Controlled opposition isn’t really opposition.

Rand Paul is the one of the few sane voices in the swamp.

I’d feel better if they were REFUSAL hearings – and snakes like Pompeo only attained office if they were not REFUSED, which probably should be the default setting.
Loretta Lynch was CONFIRMED. Sotomayor was CONFIRMED. Comey, McCabe, Webb Hubbell, a hundred thousand snakes were CONFIRMED. How many snakes were REFUSED?
Damn few.

Trump, who attended a military academy, worships Patton- but avoided actually becoming a soldier- has effectively become a useful idiot for the Military-Industrial-Complex (more aptly described as the Hollywood-MSM-Military-Industrial-Complex) which, thanks to a lazy, complacent public, managed to suck the nation dry- actually, it is worse than that, because, having sucked us dry, they suck our children and children’s children dry with trillions of new debt created to pay for $1 billion apiece B-2 Bombers and $250 million a pop F-35 fighters- and they have just achieved the ultimate in efficient thievery: wave a barrel of chlorine around every few months to perpetuate trillions more in undeclared war spending.
And then the MSM goes along with the theft by telling us inflation is 2%/year, so there is nothing really to complain about- as if a pickup truck had not gone from $10,000 to $50,000 in 20 years, or
meat from $2 to $10/ lb. What traitors.

The rat is from my district, and like nearly every other rat in the sewer, he doesn’t care about what his constituents want ! They are only interested in saying what is necessary to get elected to the golden ticket that those who “serve our country” obtain ! As far as the inflationary, real world figures you cited, you forgot to mention that, with the help from the illegal interlopers flooding our nation for the last thirty years, the labor rate has gone from $8-10 an hour to………..$8-10 an hour. No worries there, just look at all the jobs our newest ‘most worshipful master’ has created!!

AFGANASTAN , Iraq , Iran , Libya , North Korea and a bucket full of shitholes and shithole wanna be’s Are all in need of some government reform in command and control to best serve the nation and the citizens so “FUCK IT” give them all our constitution and bill of rights ! Not only are we not using it , nearly all those holding elected office continuously attempt and generally find some way to turn the founding document of our Republic into Swiss cheese . So full of holes that are not really there but the swines that took the oath just ignore that and carry on feeding at the trough to the enrichment for themselves and cronies and the destruction of all of us in fly over land !

Pompeo is universally unimpressive in every way, shape and form.
