If the Dems were smart, they would put HR2 up for a vote and steal Trump’s thunder on the issue. Unfortunately, Schumer is too stupid.
The border security in this bill is actually tightening it down to prevent those hopeless young Ukes about to be caught up in the mobilization meat grinder from fleeing the country.
So the National Security Bill does nothing for our national security.

Ocheretyne, Chasiv Yar, Krasnohorivka: the Russians are still advancing in eastern Ukraine
17APR2024
(translated from French)
The Russian army gained five kilometers in a few days, reaching the gates of the Ocheretyne logistics node west of Avdiivka. Elsewhere in Donbass, it also presses the fortresses of Krasnohorivka and Chasiv Yar.
The commander-in-chief of the Ukrainian army, General Oleksandr Syrsky , recognized just a few days ago that the situation on the front had “considerably deteriorated” in the east of the country, citing “tactical successes” of the Russians who would seek to “create the conditions for a deeper advance” . The map of the conflict shows in recent hours a push by the occupier, particularly to the west of Avdiivka , this fortified town conquered on February 17. In a few days, the Russians managed to advance about 5 kilometers, approaching the town of Ocheretyne. Further north, same scenario to the west of the town of Bakhmout where the Russians entered the first dwellings of Chasiv Yar, one of the Ukrainian fortresses which protect the large cities of Donbass still controlled by Kiev. Same scenario again, this time further south, where the Russians have penetrated another Ukrainian fortress, Krasnohorivka.

So, you're pulling for Democrats and against Trump?
No surprise from a Zeeper. But, Never Trumpers should zotted out off Free Republic.
Probably half of that money will get kicked back to dark forces.
Waiting on my response from my representative after their “YES” vote. Probably going to need a barf bag....or two.
Followed by the need to reach into my wallet so they can pi$$ more of money away.
I’m past done in my concern about NATO, Ukraine and Russia. Damn Europeans need to start taking some accountability for themselves. Thomas Jefferson warned of it, and no one listened.
Why do you think every bill's title ends with ".. and other purposes" ?
And I'm guessing you haven't even read it.
We have to remember not to take it personal, it's only business, albeit Joe's business

Putting our money where their true loyalty is.
Got to send some billions to Ukraine so the Big Guy gets his 10%.
“National security“ - but of which nation?
Thanks for the reference.

There is NO national interest in Ukraine.
Infusing Big Defense with cash and enriching our politicians and oligarch is the only reason we care about Ukraine or fomented a revolution there in the first place.
Ukraine has ZERO chance of getting any territory and can only lose more lives and more territory the longer the war goes on. Ukraine should hate us and the West more than Russia after this war ends.
