Paul holding up Senate budget vote
By Jordain Carney - 02/08/18 03:49 PM EST

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) is throwing the Senate's timeline for passing a budget needed to prevent a government shutdown into limbo.

Congress needs to pass the two-year budget deal, which includes a stopgap funding bill, by midnight Thursday in order to prevent the second partial closure in less than a month.

But under Senate rules, the earliest the chamber can take its first vote on the agreement is 1 a.m. Friday, after the deadline, unless every senator agrees to move it up.

         NO doubt McConnell's planning Rand's exit.

It’s just too funny Rand was tackled by a guy named Boucher.
