Is it that you want less spent on defense or just more spent on all the other discretionary spending, or what?

Why are you even off into that in regard to post 7?

That's a different person, with a different name.

Gonzalo Lira-Zaragoza is the person in the deportation warrant.

Per this Wikipedia bio the Gonzalo Lira who died in Ukraine had the full name of Gonzalo Ángel Quintilio Lira López and was born in Burbank, California, making him an American citizen.

Stop propagating this nonsense that he was deported, he was not. That was a different person with a different name

You are probably right that I looked up the wrong person. In that case, the Biden State department getting Britney Griner released and not helping Lira is worse than I thought. Biden would hate anyone who criticized Zelenskyy.

I think Zelensky and his associates don’t get that, true or not, every report of mega yachts being purchased by Zelensky, a six million dollar condo for Zelensky, a billion dollars lost, and probably killing a journalist intentionally...........costs Ukraine American voter support for any more aid.

That said, Russia attacked Ukraine NOT the other way around.

So every dead Russian soldier killed is what the Russian people permit when they allow oligarchs and criminals like Putin to run their country.

From that perspective, and since Russia has fought the US at every turn since the US bailed their asses out of WWII, the aid might be considered a pretty good investment as Ukraine has killed far more RUSSIAN soldiers than the US ever has.
