“Fight your own damn war” you say...

Is that your message to Israel, Ukraine, Taiwan and Americas future security?

Shall we also defund the police all across America? And say let citizens fight their own damn war against the criminals! The police costs way too much!

Our partnership with Israel, Ukraine, Taiwan can’t be broken. If we do, America will soon pay a way higher price. Anyway, Trump has already indicated that he will be beyond tough on China.

Have I sent you already the 40 points list of anti-Russia and pro Ukraine policies and actions Trump put in place during his presidency? Its impressive!

Trump was the toughest on Russia (as he often quotes himself saying).
He was the one who initiated the massive shipments of high-tech US weapons to Ukraine.

Obama thought REFUSED to send ANY weapons to Ukraine. ZERO!

Thus... it seems you are Obama policy supporter when it comes to Ukraine.
Quite amusing, but true... Think about it.

Please support Trump instead!

Trump: I sent weapons to Ukraine, Obama ‘sent pillows and blankets’

A Hill Worth Dying On

CLANDESTINE FEB 13

Reasons I don’t want to send more money to Ukraine:

1- They are literally Nazis

2- Our money is being stolen/laundered

3- The war will end if we stop funding

4- The US/NATO started the conflict

5- The West lied about everything

6- US oligarchs are making bioweapons

7- Our border is not secure

8- We are $33 trillion in debt

9- All foreign aid is a scam

10- The US government and ruling class are evil and profiting
from pandemics, human slavery, and war

The American People do not benefit in any way by sending all of
our money to Ukraine. The only ones who benefit are defense
contractors, big pharma, and corrupt oligarchs.

We only receive poverty, propaganda, illness, and death. If there is a hill to die on, it might as well be this one.

It wasn’t just the money. To get dem and RINO votes they loaded it with a poison impeachment trap for Trump if he wins in Nov.

One dime for Ukraine gets through Republicans will get a cold shoulder from me I don’t care what President Trump says.

Conditioning the legislation does not stop the cash flow to Ukraine and the Military Industrial Complex IMHO.

My bottom line no more money for Ukraine.

The bad situation on the border isn’t going to suck me in to support more money for Ukraine.

I totally agree!

Ukraine can go suck rocks as far as I’m concerned. Not one more dime for them, they’ve bled too many $$ from us already.

Even my most liberal friends are alarmed about the southern border, and we’re almost 2,000 miles away. I’m not seeing a bunch of hispanic “new citizens” this far north but we are getting Ukrainians. One couple lives very close to me and the woman is really likable. Ukes costs us too, but at least they’re civilized, polite, wear nice clothes. , do their best to fit in.

“They seem hell bent on sending money to Ukraine even want to prevent a President from stopping it.”

As Steve Bannon says, “There’s something very dark going on here.” He doesn’t understand the Ukraine “fetish” (JD Vance’s word).

Is anyone providing aid to the migrant young men that are illegally flooding into Donbas from Russia? In their case they are mostly bringing in high-speed munitions instead of fentanyl.

They also need to automatically cancel all I-589 applications where anyone entered the USA through a land border that hasn’t been declared as a country of war refugees. Neither Mexico or Canada is on that list. This past decade those countries are Iraq, Somalia, Syria, Afghanistan, Iran, and just a small handful of others. All the rest claiming to be war refugees are lying & that’s a felony.

“The mandate of national security supplemental legislation was to secure America’s own border before sending additional foreign aid around the world. It is what the American people demand and deserve. Now, in the absence of having received any single border policy change from the Senate, the House will have to continue to work its own will on these important matters. America deserves better than the Senate’s status quo.”

It’s for money laundering purposes. They all want their cut and when each rat is happy with their bank account, they will retire from office and not run again.

We need to do one thing. Follow the money.
