The GOP says there’s always enough money for wars. But they also say we ”can’t afford” to fully fund Social Security - so it will have to be cut.
What can you say except “ Off with their heads!”
Republicans are for endless spending...
The Republicans I know, aren’t for endless spending.
Reminds me of the woman who was emphatic that her bank
account couldn’t be over-drafted.
She still had checks.
Neocons are stupid assed Republicans and Democrats.
They must be expunged from the body politic.
And, ideally, hanged by the neck until dead.
These sick neocons need to be purged from the GOP.
Our nation is bankrupt and the GOP is as responsible as the Dems. It’s just a matter of time before we collapse from utter stupidity, in addition to embracing Satanism.
Well, Mr. Senator it’s nice to care about other counties’ freedoms; but the most dangerous enemies America faces are within its borders. And that “containment” thing is no longer a possible approach for a nation that is well on the road to spending itself to death.
[Republicans are for endless spending on endless wars, just like Democrats.

Same reason we sided with China against Japan even before Pearl Harbor. We could support China against Japan or we could fight the Chinese* serving under the Japanese banner later on. 13 days after Pearl Harbor, Claire Chennault’s American Volunteer Group in China took out of commission 9 of 10 Japanese bombers sortieng out of Burma:

Then the English conquered them both, and Irish and Scots regiments were some of the fightingest units in the British empire’s formations.
The Russian gambit in Ukraine is its way of preparing for the big game, much as Germany’s involvement in the Spanish Civil War and Japan’s invasion of China were their way of preparing for larger conflicts to come. We are supplying Ukraine so the big game never gets under way. Imagine if we had supplied Poland and Czechoslovakia, making them strong enough to resist conquest by Germany and Russia. 400,000 GI’s and $44T dollars (relative to today’s economy) would not have been incinerated in the furnace of WWII. The trick is not to sweat the small stuff. And $40b is small stuff.
* As it was, Taiwanese and Korean recruits served in the Imperial Japanese Army. Two of them became leaders of their respective countries - Lee Teng-hui in Taiwan and Park Chung-hee in South Korea. Singapore’s Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew served as a junior official in the Imperial Japanese government during the war, which he camouflaged by saying Japan’s secret police had him in their sights. That may have triggered no small amount of animosity from the post-war British colonial government against him.

Not enough rope.
The America Last ideology still poisons both parties.
The cash that has been spent by America on Ukraine could have done a lot of good for Americans in America.
Someday, we may actually learn what was happening in Ukraine for the last 25 years.
Then, we will understand what they are so desperate to keep hidden
Afghanistan II is coming.
We are going to get dragged into this mess for the next 20 years if we don’t pull the plug now.
There is not a “dollar amount” that is too much to send in Ukraine spending.
D.C. code for everyone gets a slice of the pie.
It’s why they hate Trump so much he stopped it they want to keep it alive.
We have to get these Neocons out of the party. Its bad enough they have one political party completely in their thrall. They can’t be allowed to have both.
