GOP Congressman: 97 of my Republican colleagues joined the Democrats in voting against my amendment that would stop sending YOUR tax dollars to LEBANON
Twitter/X ^ | Oct 2 | Congressman Greg Steube

BREAKING:

97 of my Republican colleagues joined the Democrats in voting against my amendment that would stop sending YOUR tax dollars to LEBANON.

115 of my Republican colleagues joined the Democrats in voting against my amendment that would stop sending YOUR tax dollars to IRAQ.

Year after year we send millions of American dollars to corrupt and failed states that can’t figure out a way to keep your money out of terrorists’ hands.

How can sending money to places that are overrun by terrorist organizations like Hezbollah and ISIS possibly be in America’s interest?! All while our border is being invaded and we have a $33 trillion debt to boot!

Never heard of this guy from Florida but he's doing good work here.

Amazing they're still voting for foreign aid to countries even ones with established terror organizations!

We have a long way to go. This is why the Ukraine funding debate is important as it's not about the "small" amount its the principle!

That depends on if you're looking up or down. It looks to me we're about to belly flop.

Now THIS I can get behind. Islamic theocracies are directed by their primitive religion to destroy everything Western, and should never receive a dime of American aid.

Year after year, we send millions of tax dollars from struggling Americans to greedy, corrupt and failed states that despise us .......stupid states that can’t figure out a way to keep our money out of terrorists’ hands.

How can sending money to places overrun by hate-filled terrorists possibly be in America’s interest?

All the while, Joe Demento allows our borders to be invaded by shady characters “he says” will “replace us” .......”us”, the stalwart residents of the republic, the most trusted preservers of the Constitution, the blueprint for “democracy.”

Its becoming clearer, the usurper Biden saddled us w/ a $33 trillion ntl debt so he and Obama can play footsies w/ the world’s America haters.

There was a congressman who proposed a law that every bill could only be 5 pages , so congress would basically have to vote on everything separately. Might be a good idea to stop these massive spending packages from having to be voted on

It’s almost impossible to unseat a congressman in either party in a primary. Voters just stick with the name they recognize.

“We have a long way to go”

Continued support of these people is the exact definition of insanity.

A new party is needed and needed now! No matter how small it would be at the start it will grow.

It’s not sending money to other countries that is the problem. It is laundering of that money which is the problem.
