Paul, who is seeking his third term in the Senate, is running a campaign on a message of limited government and curbed spending.
“I think most people instinctively know that nothing really in life is free. You’re going to have to pay for it with hard work. Right now we’re paying for it through inflation and it could get much worse,” said Paul.
He added, “People come from government and they say, we will give you checks. Here’s $1,400, here’s a check. You know we’re going to take care of you. But what they don’t tell you is the penalty for that or the price for that is inflation.”
University of Kentucky political expert, D. Stephen Voss, said the economy is almost always a main issue for voters in every election.
“Kentucky voters tend to be fairly moderate on economic issues including Kentucky republicans. They tend to be very conservative on social issues,” said Voss.
Paul went viral recently after calling for a special counsel could be called to investigate those who peddled the fake Russian collusion narrative.
During an interview on Newsmax, Paul joked about launching an investigation into Russian ties with environmentalists.
“Maybe we should get a special prosecutor,” Paul said. “Maybe we need to spend about $100 million investigating Putin’s contributions to the green alarmists in our country.”
“I don’t know if it’s true,” Paul added. “But can you imagine, there’s probably more truth to that than any of the BS they put forward about trying to connect the Russians to the Trump campaign.”
Left-wing environmental groups opposed the Keystone XL pipeline and have also pushed for restrictions on oil and gas drilling as well as fracking, claiming it has contributed to climate change.
Others argue that left-wing efforts against oil and gas drilling, coupled with current Biden administration policies, contributed to high oil and gas prices, which means more revenue for the Russian government given they are large producers of oil.
However, there was also no proof that Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign was colluding with Russia to “rig” the election in his favor, yet Democrats and their left-wing allies played a role in a special counsel being appointed and launching a nearly two-year-long witch hunt into Trump, his campaign, and his allies.
Accusations about Russian funding of anti-fossil fuel groups have been around for years. https://t.co/EGVIKhZmjo

The news is important to all people because it is where we come to know new things about the world, which leads to the development of more life goals that lead to life wisdom. The news also serves as a social connection tool, as we tend to relate to those who know about and believe the things we do. With the power of an open truth-seeking mind in hand, the individual can grow wise and the collective can prosper.

That’s great news. Paul has been an excellent performer, especially in relation to the covid and then holding up the $$$ going down the toilet to Ukraine. Very pleased to see you’ve hung onto this one. He has shown much courage and resilience.
