Well, the anticipated Establishment, and anti-middle class “Boader Security” bill has been released. It is all about military spending for Ukrainse (of course), grudging spending for Israel and peanuts for the border patrol to MONITOR, not stop the illegal immigrant caravans.
The bill is the typical establishment/Democrat pork barrell biil at 370 pages. And loads of exclusions and loopholes so the migrant invasion will never end.
Independent US Senator Kyrsten Sinema told reporters the legislation would secure the US southern border (OMG, that is hilarious!!), including by requiring the Department of Homeland Security to close the border if there are an average of more than 5,000 crossing attempts per day over seven days.
In addition to $20.23 billion for border security, the bill included $60.06 billion to support Ukraine in its war with Russia, $14.1 billion in security assistance for Israel, $2.44 billion to US Central Command and the conflict in the Red Sea, and $4.83 billion to support US partners in the Indo-Pacific facing aggression from China, according to figures from US Senator Patty Murray.
An additional $10 billion would provide humanitarian assistance for civilians in Gaza, the West Bank, and Ukraine.
The US would provide $4.83 billion to support key regional partners in the Indo-Pacific where tensions have risen between Taiwan and China, as well as $2.33 billion for Ukrainians displaced by Russia’s invasion and other refugees fleeing persecution.
Millions for the military to keep Zelensky and his family in mansions while American veterans are homeless. But we expect massive Ukraine funding and the important US border security begins on page 62.
And you wonder why the US is careening off the debt cliff?
Fortunately, the House says that the bill is DOA.

I quit.
I have had all I am going to take. No further comment.
It is surreal to have Biden bombing the crap out of Middle East while a convoy of “citizens” arrives at the Texas Border to supposedly help stop the “migrant” Illegal Alien invasion, and meanwhile the Senate decides to give Mega-Billions to Israel and Ukraine for not our wars.
Meanwhile I had a sudden road hazard flat tire today and rolled in to a neighborhood convenience store to attempt to change the tire, where I was accosted and besieged by a flock of Zombie drug addicts pestering me the whole time, the local dealer selling the drugs from the parking spot next to me, my God it was scary and sad to see what has become of our republic because of the political sell-out to communism and drug cartels. Fentanyl and Cocaine are almost finished destroying America. This country is swirling around the toilet bowl, soon to be gone forever. Very sad.
if you believe that, I have a luscious forest in the Mojave Desert to sell you! You know speaker Johnson will cave again. I can guarantee you this stinker bill will pass. And you are going to see 5000 illegal invaders a DAY escorted to their city of choice and given room board, money, transportation, and if possible a house to live in. While GenZ can’t afford the luxuries, the illegals will be receiving. This is so effing insanity. I hate hate the Republicans and the Democrats especially dementia FJB! But I literally from the bottom of my core despise the backstabbing spineless POS weasels, RINOS! Hate him. Trump will be the last Republican I vote for the rest can literally go down to Hades!
Nice that we’re securing borders....for another country.

How many do you think deserve a Mussolini end to their treasonous, corrupt, malevolent lives including their part in Crimes Against Humanity? Their sire, Satan, is waiting to welcome them home to hell for eternity.
Should be zero money for foreign countries and zero illegal invaders crossing the border.
This legislation is the most repulsive, vile bit of tripe ever to be foist on the American People.
THe fact that it is ‘bipartisan’ only makes it worse.
Stop this madness!
Obviously they’re not even gonna try and cut spending. Just like they’re never gonna stop these never ending wars.
Mike Johnson: Can you keep yourself from going wobbly?
Shoot this monstrosity down.
“Should be zero money for foreign countries and zero illegal invaders crossing the border.”
Absolutely correct. Pass it on.
Israel & Bill Kristol thank the GOP Senate for their service. Epstein would, too, but he had to be dispatched.
Kyrsten Sinema needs to understand Ronald Reagan fell for democrat lies on the border. It’s easy to do. She needs to stand back and let Trump deal with the issue when he’s President.
Why are spending bills being started in the Senate?
Every Western country is doing a version of this.
With the co-operation of Regime Collaborator “conservatives”.
We need our Own Homeland !
