U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) has failed to "grow a spine," according to GOP Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky.
Congressional Republicans took to social media to slam a short-term funding bill out Tuesday that would prevent a federal government shutdown just as the holidays roll around.
On Wednesday, Paul joined in on the complaining, directing his attack at Johnson.

"I had hoped to see [Speaker Johnson] grow a spine, but this bill full of pork shows he is a weak, weak man," Paul said on X, formerly Twitter. "The debt will continue to grow."
He continued, saying, "Ultimately the dollar will fail."
"Democrats are clueless and Big Gov Republicans are complicit," the GOP senator added. "A sad day for America."
