Uh, ‘borrowing’ implies some intent to repay. NOT the case IMHO. Sort of like the buhzillion dollar national debt. Show of hands for it ever being paid. I’ll wait............ I can hear the printing presses from my patio.

And yet people foolishly still believe there are viable political solutions left.

$5 Billion was what President requested to protect our border.

Nothing against Ukraine, but WTF?

NOT shocked, I see my NON representative was a YEA. And, the Nevada Liberty Watch “conservative” bunch endorse him again. NOPE! He also was for impeachment and also swallowed the fire extinguisher killing of the capitol cop and has even repeated that. Buy bye mark.

I have always called the Republican Party the stupid party, but they have set the bar even lower.

They are the suicidal party.

My asswipe critter, Alex Mooney, who won yesterday’s primary here in WV voted for it while his equally useless opponent, McKinley, was listed as “not voting”.

The democrats would die before supporting any type of Trump sponsored legislation. The repugnant repubs make me sick. Spineless anti American traitors.

The only way the United States could ever repay the national debt would be if they allow runaway inflation, and pay back real dollars with worthless ones. I actually think that will happen. But when? Who knows?

In the meantime, a Fed rate hike would, of course, make it more expensive for Congress to borrow new money. Would that slow them down? Of course not.

Trump once said that he didn’t worry about such things, as the collapse would happen after he was gone. I was bigly disappointed by that remark. Perhaps out last hope is a President Rand Paul.

More proof of the uniparty. We are simply being taxed to death to support the rest of the world which hurts us.

This obsession with helping Ukraine is some really sick stuff..yeah I feel bad for the people of Ukraine I really do, but I care about what is going on in MY country first..and none of these people who send BILLIONS to a foreign country care about what is going on HERE..the real reason why so many Dems and Republicans in the House and Senate feel this urgency about helping Ukraine is because they are being given money under the table. Ukraine is their mega cash cow they dont want to give it up

I’m not shocked at all that our Rino Blake Moore from Utah voted with the Dems. He also supported the J6 commission and now wants to “move on” from that. What an idiot. My wife and I are now local precinct chair/co-chair because of politicians like Moore and Romney. I don’t know how much impact we can have but it’s at least something. We need to get patriots more involved and much louder.
