The United States Senate is more interested in promoting the forever war destroying Ukraine than in securing our southern border from the mass illegal alien invasion.
Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) tweeted Feb. 12:
“On Super Bowl Sunday, the Senate quietly held a procedural vote and advanced a $95 billion foreign aid package.
$60 billion of that goes to Ukraine.
Guess how much goes to our southern border?
ZERO!
The DC Cartel is at it again.”
Of course I empathize with the Ukrainian people, who have been slaughtered thanks to the disaster caused by Russia’s KGB thug Vladimir Putin, dementia Joe Biden, and the corrupt Zelenskyy government in Ukraine. But America simply cannot afford to keep sending money to Ukraine, money which is only benefiting corrupt officials and the military industrial complex. America cannot even afford most of its own programs. And we have a more immediate crisis here at home: the flooding of our southern US border with more migrants so far this fiscal year than two whole states’ populations. That includes an unknown number of potential terrorists, criminals, and foreign agents.
The U.S. Senate needs to get its priorities straight and recognize our government spending is unsustainable. The U.S. border must be closed, and that is a much higher priority than sending yet more money to Ukraine.
