USA can barely afford to sustain social security and other benefits for our own citizens as is…and no wonder.

Meanwhile numerous veterans continue to go ignored as they sleep on the streets…And what achievements exactly, does the woke left have to show for abroad in recent years anyway? 🙄

Canada’s Euthanasia program may come to vets here.

[frank ballenger]

I smell some kind of stench as if from a slimy Swamp. Must be coming from those politicians.

[fella]

Same as the Ryan RINOs of 2017.

led by Susan Collins (R-Maine) — threw a tantrum over the White House’s plan to shave a fraction ($400 million) of PEPFAR’s annual $7.1 billion bucket without ever reading what the cuts actually were.

GOPe/RINOs/uniparty is the reason we can’t have nice things. I’ve despised them for almost 50 years.

[princess leah]

We’ve got to end so much give away and waste! no wonder Musk was disgusted. 5% and they scream bloody murder. EVERY gov’t dept should be required to cut 10% per year until our debt is erased!

[Revel]

Much of that money is no doubt dark money. Money that is shuffled around and fins its way back to politicians and democrat NGO’s.

[MSF BU]

I’ve always thought it would be better to give veterans a credit. In a perfect world we’d tax people who did not serve in uniform as they do in Switzerland, but a tax credit would accomplish the same thing.

[Republican Wildcat]

This is really pathetic.

For the first time in many decades, a bill was passed rescinded previously authorized spending.

So instead of an article celebrating this accomplishment - and the fact that it just happened at all - we get an article acting like it was an abject failure and we didn’t get anything we wanted because the bill could have cut $9.6 billion but instead it “only” cut $9.2 billion?

[Fido969]

You are never going to get Congress to cut funding. The only power they have is to spend money, and they aren’t going to give that up.

[Republican Wildcat]

They literally just did cut funding. By over $9 billion dollars.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Too many Republican Senators are gay these dayz.

[SuperLuminal]

Like a bad dream...
We are reliving the years 2017-2020, with the GOP consistently stabbing the GOP President in the back...

In all my years, I cannot remember a single instance when a communist was in the WH and the Senate was communist controlled, that the President was stabbed in the back by his comrades in the Senate...

[Ronald77]

If the republican Congress both house and senate, stopped stabbing the president in the BACK they’d have nothing to do.

[TexasGator]

You just got jerked ...

[oil_dude]

Senate RINOs...

[Mashood]

Pull 400 million from the RINO states.

[napscoordinator]

Strange nobody caught this as they were high fiving each other the other day.
