Thursday, during an appearance on FBN’s “Mornings with Maria,” Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) criticized Democrats who backed proposed funding for war-plagued areas in Israel and Ukraine.

The Kentucky Republican suggested it seemed as if the United States was “funding both sides of every war.”

“So he wants to send money overseas more to work on border, you know, and his notion of working on it is really just to spend more money on processing people coming in, Senator,” FBN fill-in host Jackie DeAngelis said.

Just after WW2.

Which President is most responsible for this?

That's easy. Since the end of World War II, all of them, in equal measure. That's what the Military-Industrial Complex is all about, Charlie Brown. It has nothing whatsoever to do with the defense or the protection of the American people themselves. Never has been.

I can only hope that Rand Paul's question was a rhetorical one. Otherwise, he really is as big a fool as I suspect he is.

Wilson.

[Right_in_Virginia]

Rand Paul is a national treasure.

We became the sugar daddy of the world when creeps like Joe Biden and his family, and the Clinton's ect. etc. etc. discovered 'grateful' countries would buy their 'speeches' for $10,000 a minutes... and buy their books - thousands of copies at a time. Corrupt lowlife DC thugs and goons and congressmen etc...

It's greed and corruption by the goons and thugs who made this evil legal if hop skip and jump in the right order. The people know they're selling us out and it's why be vote Trump.

1945

[Dalberg-Acton]

It goes back to Lend-Lease after WWII. No Constitutional basis for it.

[TexasM1A]

Post WWII.

[ansel12]

When 20% of Federal revenue used to be given to Islam under the founding fathers.

[bobbo666]

And, when you POShite in Congress did not pass a budget or forbid printing money.

1960

[cowboyusa]

No, to ann extent it eas justified during the Cold War. Then it should have stopped. The Cold War came home.

[cowboyusa]

We had a reason for it during the Cold War. It sidn’t really work though. The Soviet Union was on it’s way to victory in 1980.

[Reily]

Lots of things should have ended or been significantly scaled back when the USSR collapsed.

[exinnj]

When? After 1945.
