FTA-—“The Biden $106 billion proposal is going nowhere, and Senate Republicans will take the lead on crafting a funding bill that protects Americans and their interests,” Sen Cotton said.

<><>“We will not spend $3.5 billion to address the ‘potential needs of Gazans,” arguing that humanitarian assistance to Gaza could inadvertently fund “a resupply line for Hamas terrorists.”
<><>Sen Cotton also balked at spending tax dollars to fund $11.8 billion for Ukraine’s nonmilitary needs, such as retirement pensions for Ukrainian government employees.
<><>“Nor will we spend $4.7 billion tax dollars for housing, transportation, and ‘services’ for illegal aliens in the United States rather than deporting them,” Cotton warned.

Cotton’s tough talk signals a difficult negotiation ahead on Biden’s request for emergency funding for Israel, Ukraine and Taiwan.

Senate Republicans say that any new money for the war in Ukraine must be paired with changes to immigration and asylum policy to slow the flow of migrants across the U.S.-Mexico border.

This is what we’ve come to. We’ve fallen so low as a country that an American
candidate is only electable by whatever he says (and doe$) about a foreign country.

A demented Biden’s reelection chance were nil, according to the laws of diminishing returns...........
until the attack on Israel fell in his lap. Now he’s suddenly morphed into a “strong, decisive “leader.”

America’s president is harassing Congress.....not to finance America’s needs.....
Biden wants $100 billion for Israel and Ukraine.

What?

Biden’s spending billions we do not have, then saddles taxpayers with the onerous borrowing costs. Taxpayers’ children and grandchildren are compelled to pay the outrageous bills.

<><>Why does the US have to go into debt for these pampered foreigners?
<><>Why cant they stand on their own two feet?
<><>Why cant wealthy Israel and money-grubbing Ukraine do the borrowing for their own needs?

I will pray that all his “wants” are denied. Not that I expect that to happen. I have lost any hope for real America to survive.
