@HawleyMO

Spending $40 billion on Ukraine aid - more than three times what all of Europe has spent combined - is not in America’s interests. It neglects priorities at home (the border), allows Europe to freeload, short changes critical interests abroad and comes w/ no meaningful oversight

Dems/RINOs baited people initially with lies of Russia rolling over all of eastern Europe, went reeee and further peppered their arguments with ignoring Godwin’s Law, they keep supporting more $ to Zelenskyy, more no doubt for the Big Guy, more for the slush funds that warmongering no doubt provides, and all as they keep supporting the U.S. giving handouts to Zelenskyy though the southern border isn’t protected, the U.S. is $30 trillion plus in debt, and they have no problem with the U.S. getting involved more and more than in just providing arms.

They learned nothing from Neocon Bush or Neoliberal Odumba’s wars, like with NATO bombing Libya on unproven allegations that Gaddafi was going to kill 30k of his own people.

NATO has become a rogue organization and willingly aided Odumba, and Odumba supporters love NATO.

The killing of Khaddafy and subsequent arms running to Islamists in Syria (that's what Chris Stevens was doing in Beghazi) basically opened the floodgates of migrants to Europe - over 2 million migrants flooded in, the greatest migrant flow since WWII.

Then why didn’t he introduce a rider onto the bill to match funds for the border? 10% If we can afford $30B for someone else’s border we can afford $3B for ours. Now he is just grandstanding.

Barry McCaffrey tweets image from video game: "Russian aircraft getting nailed by UKR missile defense. Russians are losing large numbers of attack aircraft. UKR air defense becoming formidable."

Does this 4 star general make decisions on approving the use of nukes in Ukraine? The video shows the name of the game at the bottom.
