We wonder why this nation is disappearing before our eyes?
America is at that point in the course of any empire, where the government descends into shameless self-parody.
If America survives another 100 years, I won’t see.
But I can tell you with conviction, America won’t be a constitutional republic in 100 years.

51st state.
This country is toast.
Really? Maybe we should start shipping illegal aliens over to Ukraine then.
$9 Billion to Gaza! Ally of the Democrats. Why no mention in news titles that $9 billion is aid to Gaza in this package?
So does that mean that our ruling class is laundering illegally acquired money in the Ukraine?
That would explain how they get rich so fast after election.
we are living in a bizzarro world....up is down and down is up...wrong is right and right is wrong...
Congressman Gerald E. “Gerry” Connolly is serving his eighth term in the U.S. House of Representatives from Virginia’s 11th District, which includes Fairfax County and the City of Fairfax in Northern Virginia.
[[“The Ukrainian-Russian border is our border!]]
And that is proof positive that liberals are morons and do NOT give a crap about our own nation! They just want ot keep sending OUR money elsewhere, while those in our own nation suffer!
Not unless that bill also made Ukraine the 51st state.
Yet another reason why Washington needs to be flushed.

“It’s the border between depraved autocracy and freedom loving people seeking our democratic way of life!”
I’m so sick of this kind of rhetoric. Vietnam, Kuwait, Iraq, Serbia, Libya, etc etc etc.
They pretend “freedom loving” means we should go to war for them. I used to fall for that crap. Now I want to see a clear delineation of our national interest in war.
And “depraved autocracy”. Russia is just another crappy country run by another set of power hungry folks.
“ It’s the border between depraved autocracy and freedom loving people”
Oh.
That would be the border of Washington D.C.
The scum in Congress will happily reinstate the draft and send American boys & girls to die for that border. It’s the only way to protect it.
Why doesn’t Gerry enlist in the Ukrainian army? The coward. It’s better for him to saying meaningless tripe than to risk his own life.
Bkmrk
We have no border; Joe Bidet is protecting Ukrain’s border.
