Polish PM warns House Speaker Mike Johnson that ‘thousands of lives’ are at risk due to failure to pass more Ukraine aid

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk warned House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) Tuesday that he’s putting “thousands of lives in Ukraine” at risk by turning the issue of whether to approve aid to the war-torn country into a political football.

Such a strong statement from a foreign leader to a US congressman is unusual, and it comes as efforts to pass $60 billion in military assistance for Ukraine have stalled in the lower chamber.

“The lack of a decision to unblock aid to Ukraine is very important for Ukraine, for the United States, for the entire Western community,” Tusk told reporters in Washington Tuesday, after meeting with President Biden and his staff. “We need to stop speculation whether the United States will continue to be involved in helping Ukraine.”

Tusk then took aim at Johnson, indicating that he hopes “the voice from Poland will influence, and change the attitude of the speaker of the House” before issuing a stark warning.

The Eurotrash certainly like to bang their begging bowls on the ground.

He’s partially right. US tax dollars would go a long way in helping people - American lives.

Millions of Americans lives are at risk with our open borders. Our own border is thousands times more important than Ukraine’s border.

A political football? Unlink it from all other aid and border security and see who is using it as a political football.

Two words for PM Tusk, You First.

[US tax dollars would go a long way in helping people - American lives.]

But no additional money for American citizens suffering under Joe Biden’s inflation disaster.

You want to increase the US Federal Gov’t domestic budget? Are you out of your mind?

Most of it is counterproductive as it is.

Ukraine is the DC marxists and permanent deep-state’s #1 project

Their project must fail to have any hope of saving the US Republic.

How much of that $60 billion would have ended up in Poland, specifically in Tusk’s pocket?

“The types of aid committed vary by country. The U.S. is flexing its military might, committing weapons and equipment valued at $46 billion – the most among countries and more than twice as much as Germany, which has promised the next-highest amount of military aid.”

Humanitarian aid: yes.
Military aid: no way; wrong enemy.

They can stay the hell out of our business. This is exactly why I hate NATO.When you spend as much on NATO as we do you can gripe.

Do your own fightin’ dude. And we need to do our own fighting instead of making others do it.

Not one more dime until our own border is completely closed and mass deportations have started.

And then maybe, just maybe, we can think about talking about Ukraine.

Maybe.

Even if true, so what? Not our place to extort taxes from US citizens and then spend the money on something that is of no benefit to the USA.

The new Polish prime minister is a globalist swine. So no surprise there.
