And the republican party that allows rampant election cheating. Forgot about that one, Ted.
The Democrat Party is still and champion PARTY OF DEATH!
THIS is why Biden was so shockingly over-the-top with his speech today and sending 1, and perhaps 2 carriers to the Eastern Med. To divert attention from his $6 billion Iranian adventure, and his restoration of the Trump-canceled $200 million in aid to Gaza.
Fresh off of the embarrassment of having to build the wall.
Don’t forget to distract from the Impeachment Inquiry.
To get more Ukraine money. This was deliberate by the deep state.
It’s odd he flipped on the wall shortly before the hamas attack.
Apparently he’s up against a deadline for spending the money.
Thanks for the info, I had no idea but was wondering why this had not become topical.
It was reported that they’d sold off some of the wall materials.
Remind me ... are we not supposed to hate Ted Cruz because he is not Donald Trump?
They did sell them.
Joe and the Democrats paid for Iranian support of terrorism with YOUR money.
Dear God,
Please, protect him, President Trump, and all who speak the truth about islam and the US government. Please, bring down in decisive fashion, all of Israel's enemies.
Psalm 68:1-2 God shall arise, his enemies shall be scattered; and those who hate him shall flee before him! As smoke is driven away, so you shall drive them away; as wax melts before fire, so the wicked shall perish before God!
The prez who signed mail in ballots into effect really helped the election integrity.
Those mail in ballots he gave them perpetrated the covid tyranny and control he installed into this once great nation.
“And the republican party that allows rampant election cheating. Forgot about that one, Ted.”
Got that right.
Actually paid for by Israel’s neglect or intent.
The unmitigated invasion is simply unacceptable for a country that has the best military surveillance tech and personnel.
Americans need to be sure we are not being gaslighted
to advance a hidden agenda. Here’s what we’ve been told.

U.S. Security Assistance to Israel
American Israeli Public Affairs Committee Briefing Book 2023
The United States has long defined Israel’s survival and security as important to its own national interests. Israel helps the United States meet its growing security challenges through close cooperation and a range of innovative technologies. Through executive commitment and legislative action, America provides Israel with annual security assistance that helps the Middle East’s only democracy defend itself—by itself—against mounting security threats.
History and Terms
The United States has supported Israel politically since its reestablishment in 1948. But it was not until the late 1960s that it began to regularly provide security assistance to the Jewish state. Since then, America has consistently provided Israel with security assistance to help it stay strong and deter its enemies.
U.S. security assistance to Israel promotes our national security and our economy, and helps our ally defend itself against growing threats.
Security Assistance: By means of its annual foreign aid, U.S. security assistance to Israel is the most tangible manifestation of American support for the Jewish state. Assistance primarily takes the form of funding for Israel to purchase the arms needed to defend itself from its adversaries.
QME: A core element of U.S. policy is to maintain Israel’s qualitative military edge (QME)—the ability to counter and defeat any credible conventional military threat while sustaining minimal damages and casualties. In 2008, Congress wrote America’s longstanding commitment to Israel’s QME into law and required the president to continually assess whether it is being maintained.
Memoranda of Understanding: In 1998, the United States and Israel signed their first 10-year “Memorandum of Agreement on Security Cooperation” to increase security assistance to Israel while phasing out economic aid. Under the agreement, the United States committed to providing Israel $21.3 billion in security assistance. In 2016, America committed to provide $38 billion under a new 10-year Memorandum of Understanding (MOU).
Serving American Interests
U.S. provides security assistance to key allies around the world. Current law ensures this aid can only be used for “internal security, for legitimate self-defense.”
Anchor of Stability: In an increasingly uncertain Middle East, Israel is the one stable democratic ally upon which America can consistently depend. Cooperation between the two countries in intelligence, homeland security, missile defense and counterterrorism has helped the United States meet its growing security challenges. U.S. support for Israel helps deter regional conflict by making clear to potential foes that they cannot defeat the Jewish state.
Israeli Innovation: As a result of the strong friendship between Israel and the United States, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and the U.S. military share technologies and techniques that greatly benefit both nations. Israel has pioneered cutting-edge technologies in cyber defense, unmanned vehicles, sensors and electronic warfare systems, and advanced defenses for military vehicles. In addition, Israeli battlefield medical technologies have saved countless American lives. The innovative use of U.S. military equipment by the IDF, coupled with shared know-how, has helped the U.S. military improve its own equipment and tactics.
Stockpiles: Established in the 1980s, the War Reserves Stock Allies-Israel program consists of up to $3.4 billion of U.S.-owned and -managed weapons and equipment stored in Israel for use by the U.S. military. The IDF may access these reserves during emergencies, if authorized by the U.S. government.
Crucial to Israel’s Security
Mounting Threats: The ongoing instability gripping the region directly threatens the Jewish state. To its north, Israel faces Hezbollah in Lebanon and a growing Iranian presence in Syria; to its south, Israel faces Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) in Gaza while ISIS-affiliated terrorists roam the Sinai Peninsula; to its west, militant terrorist groups are gaining strength in the West Bank. Israel’s greatest threat remains Iran, which is attempting to surround the Jewish state with terrorist proxies while developing the capability to produce nuclear weapons.

Biden limited American oil and gas production and exploration. The price of oil.and gas goes up. Russia and Iran can afford their international adventures.
