Sen. John McCain exploded with full-on RINO fury on the Senate floor today when he accused his colleague Sen. Rand Paul, and anyone else that disagreed with him on a bill to allow Montenegro entry into the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), of working for the Kremlin.

“You are achieving the objectives of Vladimir Putin…trying to dismember this small country which has already been the subject an attempted coup,” McCain exclaimed.

“If they object, they are now carrying out the desires and ambitions of Vladimir Putin and I do not say that lightly,” he added.

McCain then sought unanimous consent to progress the bill, and not long after, Paul headed to the mic to express his objections before he left altogether.

“I note the senator from Kentucky leaving the floor without justification or any rationale for the action he has just taken. That is really remarkable, that a senator blocking a treaty that is supported by the overwhelming number—perhaps 98, at least, of his colleagues—would come to the floor and object and walk away,” McCain whined.

“The only conclusion you can draw when he walks away is he has no justification for his objection to having a small nation be part of NATO that is under assault from the Russians,” he continued.

This was followed by McCain out-and-out claiming that Paul is working with the Russians: “So I repeat again, the senator from Kentucky is now working for Vladimir Putin.”

Seriously.

A McCain spokesperson attempted to clarify the senator’s comments in a statement to The Daily Beast, but did no such thing:

“Senator McCain believes that the person who benefits the most from Congress’s failure to ratify Montenegro’s ascension to NATO is Vladimir Putin, whose government has sought to destroy the NATO alliance, erode confidence in America’s commitments to its allies, overthrow the duly-elected government of Montenegro, and undermine democratic institutions throughout Europe.” His office further stated: “Senator McCain, and certainly the people of Montenegro, would appreciate an explanation from Senator Paul as to why he sought to prevent this small, brave country from joining in the defense of the free world.”

Paul told the Daily Beast in response: “Currently, the United States has troops in dozens of countries and is actively fighting in Iraq, Syria, Libya, and Yemen (with the occasional drone strike in Pakistan).”

“In addition, the United States is pledged to defend 28 countries in NATO. It is unwise to expand the monetary and military obligations of the United States given the burden of our $20 trillion debt.”

I guess everyone that isn’t on board with the globalist agenda is somehow working with the Russians, eh McCain?
