Where’s the help for the American people?!

Homelessness is rampant in all the blue cities and these treasonous retards want to fund the illegals and fund a war on behalf of a nation that has destroyed civil liberties, banned elections, imprisoned opposing political leadership, banned religions AND supports actual Nazis in order to “save Democracy?!”

This is BS and the DNC and these collaborating RINO globalists need to be expelled and sent to the Ukrainian front lines.

The kickbacks are huge. As will be the donations from the contractors.

And so the compromises and the corruption of yet another Republican begins. This is how they all end up swamp creatures.

It is Eve biting into the apple all over again.

They don’t care about the Ukrainians on little bit. They care about money laundering, military industrial complex and destroying the sovereignty of the United States of America.

One must ask the all important question...

WHY? Is sending Ukraine billions of dollars so important?

Is it because the Demon rats are afraid of Russia?

Is it because the Demon rats care about the people of Ukraine?

Why the focus, vs aid to many other countries of need?

There can only be one answer...

Ukraine is a country of immense corruption, and some of the money is getting laundered back to the Demon rat cronies for nefarious purposes.

It's the only answer that makes any sense...

This is a Faustian bargain, and democrats never honor a deal. They will backstab him first chance they get.

I hope he continues to show a real character of strength and integrity.

Great idea if Johnson wants to lose his House seat in addition to being removed as Speaker.

It's only when one realizes why Ukraine is the priority that one can realize how incredibly corrupt our government has become.

It's not just Democrats doing the money laundering through Ukraine. About half the Republicans are, too.

The Democrats could have protected McCarthy but they didn’t. So why would Johnson trust them?

Yes. What the heck is it that makes Ukraine more important than stopping 50 million invaders on our southern border?
