A Senate bill would provide a measly $650 million to continue building a border wall at the United States-Mexico border while Ukraine would be sent $48 billion in American taxpayer money.
The bill, negotiated by Sens. James Lankford (R-OK), Chris Murphy (D-CT), and Kyrsten Sinema (I-AZ), would give Ukraine nearly $50 billion in U.S. tax dollars to defend its borders from Russian invasion.
At the same time, the bill spends just $650 million “to build and reinforce miles and miles of new border wall,” according to Lankford’s office. That funding is likely to build only a couple dozen miles of border wall.
The little funding for the border wall compared to Ukraine’s check comes as a record number of American adults support building barriers along the border to stem illegal immigration and drug trafficking.
Last year, a record 4-in-7 registered American voters, or a 57 percent majority, supported building additional border walls.

The scum voting for this have zero interest in representing their constituents.
This is what “America last” looks like.
If the Chairman of the Arizona Republican GOP is out there attempting to fraudulently manipulate elections, you can imagine what the Communist left is doing.
I don’t think good `ol Mr. Lankford will be seeing another term come reelection time.

Actually, there is not too much time to implement and use these money this year. Trump can change the funding next year!
8k/day ....300m in less than 100 years. The country size would double with just illegals. Country would not be recognizable
He was my senator. But I now refuse to accept him as my senator anymore. I’ve written him two emails tonight and I was not nice. He is a traitor to his state and his country. He has clearly been compromised. I’m done with him.
I got a lengthy response defending the bill. It’s just garbage. He is dead to me.
Every Senator who votes for this, Dem or Pub, should be deported to Ukraine where they can run for office. Or pick up a rifle.
😂
That seems to be the objective.
THis bill needs to be deep sixed......really bad.
Does anyone know how many border bills we have had?
In addition to existing law which is ignored, Democrats wisely use the issue to obtain concessions.
I remember the one Reagan had.
The Simpson–Mazzoli Act signed into law by Ronald Reagan on November 6, 1986
How many more border bills have there been?
At this point it seems border bills are no different than cease-fires with Hamas.

There, fixed it.
I stole it from Rocco.
He said he didn’t mind.
Because giving money to Zelensky puts laundered money into their pockets, while stopping the border invasion stops some laundered money from going into their pockets.
They are nrearly ALL corrupt in the Senate (not that the House is much better)
Silly people.
You still haven’t realized that globohomo DC’s borders are NOT in Texas or Arizona, but in Ukraine, Somalia and Syria?
Of course it gives 75 times more money to Ukraine than border wall-the politicians have to get their kickbacks don’t they?
