This isn't the 1940s where we could send out massive arsenals under Lend Lease and when we needed one for ourselves just manufacture entire fleets overnight.

One fighter aircraft takes a long time build and and test, plus we don't have modern ones just laying around. So to give them to Ukraine means they are taking them from US defense and they can't be replenished quickly. In other words, it weakens us while our rivals are building strength.

But hey, vital ally Ukraine is worth the risk I guess.

Lindsey Graham was on TV three weeks ago saying that US Retirees are going to have to accept lesser Social Security benefit payments- as a reality.


Everyone gets their Woke $$$ for the Liberal New World order and every other thing Joe wants - but if you’re on SS, they say Benes must be cut!

You are correct.

No accountability for so long, cloistered in the Senate, bad things are at our doorstep.

Well, sure! They should include a couple of nukes with the fighter jets. That’ll get this mess straightened out pronto.

How do these clowns/idiots continue to get elected? I know. Dominion voting systems.

Clear out the boneyard in AZ. Why send new stuff when we have gobs of surplus waiting for reactivating.

Mass-murder loving Putin fans have no party. Democrats and Republicans are both going to help Ukraine defend itself; so my advice is learn to like it.
