This really puts things into perspective: With the 165 Billion we gave to Ukraine, we could have built six border walls to stop illegal immigrants from pouring across our southern border.

Could have fixed Flint's water system 215 times over easily.

I like this one. Could have given every homeless vet $2 million.

This makes your blood boil knowing that this wasted money to Ukraine and Israel could improve America and American lives.

Yes, wasted. We’ve been left defenseless. Our elected officials don’t care.

Well, if Ukraine and Israel fell, we could then look forward to the next domino to fall. It's fun playing dominoes. The last domino might be very close to home, or at home.

Dominoes are less expensive when they're at the beginning of the row, and get a lot more expensive as the row gets shorter. When the last domino falls, it's the end of the game.

And yet Ukraine aid did not take a single cent from US border protection. The attempt to link the two issues is just a mask to hide support for Russia’s invasion.

Money isn’t the problem. Motivation is the problem.

Nonsense. As if Biden would build a border wall.

If Ukraine and Israel fall, the U.S. would be open to an invasion across our border with Mexico.

Or some inane, silly sh!t like that.

Money is not the problem at the borders.

More money would be diverted to "improve efficiency" of the illegal flow of aliens conducted by the leftist Democrat Party.

The enforcement of our immigration laws (not new laws, just the robust enforcement of the laws passed by Congress and previous administrations) has been an incredible reward for Americans who respect the rule of law.

Most of which would be p....ed away. You think Ukraine is corrupt? Try looking at government procurement processes in America. $300 billion of "COVID" funds sent to states and cities either misappropriated or simply gone...unaccounted for. How many billions have gone to that "high speed rail" project in California that has built almost nothing, yet they want $100 billion more? How many billions fed to companies like Solyndra, who gobble up subsidies and then conveniently go bankrupt? How much in subsidies is going into wind farms and solar arrays which rarely produce any electricity, and when they do they destabilize the grids that are forced to buy power from them? (And which have doubled the retail price of electricity to consumers!) Don't look too hard at Tesla's business model. Or at the massive medical industry monopolies. Not to mention Pfizer, et.al. for the COVID "vaccine" boondoggle. How much is being slurped up for supplying illegal immigrants with cellphones, debit cards, free meals, free medical care, bus and airfares, free lodging (in luxury hotels for God's sake)? How much of THAT money stays with fat-cat NGOs for "administration"? While you're at it, ask what the "overhead" ratio for city welfare programs is. (distant relative who ran a child protective services office in Boston once boasted to us at dinner that he'd gotten an award for getting his office DOWN TO 70%) How many millions did the Clintons skim off that aid program to....(Puerto Rico was it?) Stop me, please! I'm just getting warmed up!

"And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?" Matthew 7:3-5.

Those people who consider themselves patriotic for focusing on supporting Ukraine and Israel before securing the border, will soon find out that as the country’s demography changes there will be fewer and fewer “Americans” who share their support for Ukraine and Israel.

We MUST fight the Russians in Ukraine and the Moslem terrorists in Gaza or else we'll have to fight them here.

That's the slogan! /sarc
