Why Hasn’t Mitch McConnell Put America’s Security Interests Ahead Of Ukraine’s?
The Federalist ^ | 9/8/2022 | Jordan Boyd

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell thinks Democrats should stop splurging Americans’ tax dollars on policies that don’t help with problems such as the U.S.-Mexico border, but it is McConnell who needs to stop pretending he’s powerless to curb the southern border crisis while funneling billions to Ukraine.

“There is nothing compassionate about tolerating or even encouraging anarchy at the border, violence in our streets, and a steady erosion of public safety,” McConnell said in a Senate floor speech titled “Americans’ Top Priorities Are Democrats’ Biggest Failures.” “It is neither fair nor compassionate, not to any Americans, least of all to the vulnerable people Democrats say they’re helping.”

“Why Hasn’t Mitch McConnell Put America’s Security Interests Ahead Of Ukraine’s?”

He has higher priorities than the US. Something that can also be seen in his cheerleaders here.

He is too busy undermining the MAGA candidates. That is his top priority. Everything else takes a back seat.

Because rolling back Putin’s dreams of recreating the USSR is in America’s interest?

No lover of Turtle or Biden, but in this case it’s the right thing to do.

Joe is draining our energy capabilities, and supplies.
Mitch is draining the Treasury.
China, Russia, Iran, etc. are watching gleefully.

Answer: $$$$. The Ukraine “project” and now war has been a money laundering scheme from the start.

Russia was in control of Ukraine for most of my life and it made no difference to the welfare or wellbeing my family or anybody I know. Maybe that’s why Reagan and George W Bush after him had no issue with it

On the other hand,Our open southern border directly affects the welfare of Americans, including my family and neighbors

But Mitch and the GOP establishment are obsessed about Ukraine - which doesn’t affect America - and couldn’t care less about our own border

Further, while they’re sending money we don’t have to Ukraine, they’re getting ready to cut Social Security for Americans because “we don’t have the money”

With the kickbacks, he is making a hell of a lot more from Ukraine than what he is from the job he was elected to

So, investigate, if there is evidence press charges; and if guilty hang the SOB and confiscate his estate and all bank accounts

Repeat for every single Congressman. We can elect more

You are in good company with people who worry about our freedom, like Hillary, George Soros, Klaus Schwab, and the rest of the globalists. Ya’ll got that simple little narrative combined with a certain amount of fortune telling and convenient amnesia to justify Ukraine’s and NATO’s innocence. A deeper look into the matter reveals a much different story.

Not when we have more than enough problems right here at home that must be dealt with.

I feel way more threatened by the open southern border than by Ukraine not being able to join Nato

Because McPOS is a deep state puppet.

He doesn’t care about America, globalism is “the game” McTurtle likes.

He’s a waste of sperm & an egg.
