In honor of Festivus, tomorrow I will be airing my grievances, mostly against Washington. Check back here in the morning.

Airing of Grievances begins...

In Washington, "bipartisan deal" is a synonym for "increasing our debt"
— Senator Rand Paul (@SenRandPaul) December 23, 2013
One party seems to like some of the Bill of Rights. The other party, some more. Few willing to stand up for the whole thing.
— Senator Rand Paul (@SenRandPaul) December 23, 2013
The recent "bipartisan deal" will add 7 trillion more debt. And was hailed as an example of Washington "getting something done."
— Senator Rand Paul (@SenRandPaul) December 23, 2013
Let's move on to the Senate. If you want more bipartisan cooperation, talk more not less.
— Senator Rand Paul (@SenRandPaul) December 23, 2013
Allow more debate and amendments. Don't change the rules to run it with an iron fist.

Minor grievance: I can never remember when to move my car for DC street cleaning.
— Senator Rand Paul (@SenRandPaul) December 23, 2013
Today has another significance besides a Festivus: It is the 100th anniversary of the Federal Reserve.
— Senator Rand Paul (@SenRandPaul) December 23, 2013
So now some Fed Grievances.
— Senator Rand Paul (@SenRandPaul) December 23, 2013
Fed policies make you poorer, and hurt the poor and middle class the most. Ridiculous monetary policies increase the costs of goods.
— Senator Rand Paul (@SenRandPaul) December 23, 2013
So you can thank the Fed for your grocery and gas bills getting out or control.

In response to some of your tweets, there will be no feats of strength, and I have no plans to end Festivus by wrestling with Senator Reid.

Back to Grievances...

The Senate cafeteria never has burgoo.

Grievance with my otherwise wonderful staff: leave the turtleneck alone. I like it and so do viewers.
— Senator Rand Paul (@SenRandPaul) December 23, 2013
Too many people wearing ties on TV as it is
— Senator Rand Paul (@SenRandPaul) December 23, 2013
Obamacare is the untouchable "law of the land" but sequester cuts aren't
— Senator Rand Paul (@SenRandPaul) December 23, 2013
I still have a lot more problems with you people (Washington). I will be back later with more.
— Senator Rand Paul (@SenRandPaul) December 23, 2013
One more Festivus grievance about bipartisanship. @CoryBooker doesn't RT me enough.

Too often politicians try the same thing over and over again even if it is clear it isn't working. We need to give new ideas a try.
— Senator Rand Paul (@SenRandPaul) December 23, 2013
For example, my economic freedom zones. We have tried big government in places like Detroit. Let's try something different.
— Senator Rand Paul (@SenRandPaul) December 23, 2013
Washington has too much power over too many crimes. We should make fewer federal crimes and fewer mandatory minimum sentences.
— Senator Rand Paul (@SenRandPaul) December 23, 2013
I liked my plan. I did not get to keep it.
— Senator Rand Paul (@SenRandPaul) December 23, 2013
Much more here...
