$2.3M injecting beagles with cocaine, $700K on parrot mating study, $187K on dogs helping kids cope, and $118K on studying if a metal Thanos replica can snap its fingers….

Senator Rand Paul exposes eyebrow-raising government expenditures, highlighting instances where taxpayer money is allocated to seemingly absurd studies. The revelations include:

• $2.3 Million for injecting beagles with cocaine, aiming to understand the adverse effects, despite the evident societal impact of the drug.
• $700,000 spent on studying how male parrots attract mates, raising questions about the practical relevance of such research.
• $187,000 allocated to study the well-established fact that dogs help children cope, an area where common knowledge could have sufficed.
• $118,000 directed towards studying whether a metal replica of Marvel Comics villain Thanos could snap its fingers, an endeavor deemed unnecessary.

Senator Paul criticizes these expenditures, emphasizing the questionable priorities and lack of common sense in allocating taxpayer funds for such endeavors. The examples he provides serve as a stark illustration of the need for scrutiny and accountability in government spending.
