John McCain and Rand Paul Are Fighting Like Meow Hiss Grrr Argh

The issue? Montenegro is being considered to join NATO. Virtually no senator opposes this on either side of the aisle. Paul does however, because money libertarianism whatever.

McCain accused him of being in the pocket of the Russians (Russia doesn’t want Montenegro in NATO). Paul objected then promptly left the Senate, after which McCain called into question Paul’s reasoning for objecting at all.

(Note the comity of the Senate rules here: It’s OK if you’re a Republican. McCain basically called Paul a Russian stooge in the Senate and no objection from Mitch McConnell. Elizabeth Warren tries to read a letter from Coretta Scott King, she gets shut down.
