SEN RAND PAUL (GUEST): Unfortunately, the deal's done, you know? Half the Republicans in the House are going to vote for this, a little more than half. All the Democrats will vote for it in the Senate and the House. And they'll pass this the way they always do. The big government types in both parties will get what they want.

SEAN HANNITY (HOST): You know, and that, sadly, is what it became. It became a swamp bill.

...

And I talked to a lot of people on the Hill and, you know -- why they're trying to sell this as a great deal. To me, this is a typical DC swamp sewer bill.
