Rep. Crenshaw on $40 billion Ukraine aid: It's a good investment without a single American troop being deployed

@ChadPergram

1) GOP TX Rep Crenshaw on Fox on $40 billion Ukraine aid bill: If Republicans were in charge, we would have said..let's use unspent COVID money.zLet's do $10 billion now. Let's reassess in a month. Let's do another $10 billion.

2) Crenshaw: Ukrainians, are going to have basically an unlimited amount of resources to continue fighting this war. This is an investment in the severe degradation of our second biggest adversary, the Russian military. They will not be able to invade other countries

3) Crenshaw: That allows us to do something that allows us to focus on our actual biggest adversary, which is China. It allows us to refocus because we're no longer as worried as we may have been before about destabilizing Europe.

4) Crenshaw: So you have to think strategically when you when you vote on these things, it was a big price tag. But in the end, a good investment without a single American troop being deployed.

ROI is a number. I would want to see their ROI expressed numerically.

He’s watching too much Cable.

It brainwashing.

There is no counter opinion to say WTF are we doing?

They could care less about the American people. Turn on Hannity and Lindsey Graham and it’s immediately apparent they don’t care if you are eaten by ants on a spit .

It cost us 5 billion to over throw the government in Ukraine and now another 100 billion to keep it? At what point do we just cut the loses? I’d rather Americans have that money instead of it going to some backward eastern Europe hell hole.

———

They have short memories and are morons. I expect this garbage from youngsters who can’t even remember Somalia, Bosnia, Libya or even Iraq and Afghanistan. The Ukie war cheerleaders think this is an “ investment “?

What did invading all five countries listed above get us? Bankruptcy,lives lost, terror attacks, and loss of billions dollars of equipment, this Ukie war is no different. Really much worse, senile Joe abandoned billions in military equipment in Afghanistan and is now willingly shipping over billions….does not anyone see the idiocy?

***We did not invade those countries. We invaded Iraq and Afghanistan. Our invasions were successful, but then the state department takes over and implements “nation building”. That’s where we need to just plain stop, and implement what I call the emBASEee Strategee. from my home page

I have been advocating for several years a policy I call ‘embaseees’. Embassy + AirBase —> EmBASEeees. We go into a terrorist country, clear out their taliban equivalent, then withdraw to very large Embassies, perhaps 3 of them. Have them big enough to encompass a military airbase where we can use it for decades on end to conduct anti-terrorism operations. As long as the ‘host’ country aint killing Americans then we let them have self-sovereignty. Kind of like how we operated in the Phillipines for decades. We could even have an intermediate zone that we patrol but it would be autonomous. Let them have their taste of freedom. A referendum every 10 years to see how large the boundaries of the intermediate autonomous zone should be.

Here is what we would have avoided by using this strategy:

Bankruptcy,lives lost, terror attacks, and loss of billions dollars of equipment, this Ukie war is no different.

It might be if we (the taxpayers) actually knew where every dollar was going.

Congress and whoever has their hand up sock puppet Joe Biden's butt are wasting billions if not trillions thru the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) with zero oversight. None of the money is going to starving refugees of the war. It's going to rich people overseas and being funneled back to Congress men and women thru third parties.

Lord, many Americans are so stupid.
