Mitch McConnell Suggests Funding Ukraine With Your Tax Dollars Is “Number One Priority” For United States (Video in article link)
Trending Politics ^ | 12/20/22 | Clayton Keirns

On Tuesday, Senator Mitch McConnell proved once again that he is totally disconnected from the desires of the American people. Instead of stopping Biden from enacting more policies that are harming our economy, McConnell says that “helping Ukraine” is what he wants to be focused on right now. And exactly what money is the government using to help Ukraine? That’s right, your tax dollars.

“Making sure the Defense Department can deal with the major threats coming from Russia and China, providing assistance for the Ukrainians to defeat the Russians. That’s the number one priority for the United States right now, according to most Republicans. That’s sort of how we see the challenges confronting the country at the moment,” he said.

This RINO traitor got elected on Trump's coattails in 2020 and he doesn't have to face the voters again until 2026.

What a smug backstabber he is.

Toppling Putin is a worthy goal and if it can be accomplished without Americans dying on a battlefield then all the better.

I’ll disagree with a lot of the others-

as long as the election process is completely subverted-

protecting an illegitimate tyrannical fascist regime is not high on my priority list.

Told the wife last night, all of our donations and votes are going to candidates that campaign on my number one priority: cleaning up what are the loosest and most easily corruptible elections in the history of the free first world. Elections that absent fixing, the GOP will never, ever win en masse again.

Topping biden would be more important. I don’t care if Russia has gay marriage or not.

I support Ukraine and find McConnell’s statement to be despicable.

The the false Russian collusion nonsense, rigging of the 2020 election, the FBI taking over and suppressing speech at Twitter it all linked to the Ukraine projection, neocon foreign policy and the war in Ukraine.

Ukraine must be more than just laundering operation. There must be even darker secrets buried there.

How dare you, you son of bitch, reference Ronald Reagan to our meddling in Ukraine and attempt to destroy Russia.

Present-day Russia is the kind of country Reagan would be proud it became after the Soviet Union fell. It has 13% flat tax and a President that promotes Christianity, protects Judeo-Christianity and has been spending billions building churhes.

It's Ukraine that home of neo-Nazism and the kind of suppression of basic freedoms the Soviet Union oppressed.

Those that fomented the Maiden revolution, funded, trained and emboldened neo-Nazis and used Ukraine as a money laundering operation at the expense of the Ukrainian people are evil personified.

Germany and Japan turned out pretty good.

1. That was over 75 years ago

2. That involved a world war with over 40M people killed.

“Mitch McConnell Suggests Funding Ukraine With Your Tax Dollars...”

I’d say that, with over $60+ BILLION spent so far in that shithole, we ARE doing that.
