Top Eurocrat Verhofstadt Brands Republicans Who Voted Against Ukraine Aid as ‘Traitors’
Breitbart ^

Posted on 04/21/2024 8:00:44 AM PDT by Tench_Coxe

A leading Eurocrat in Brussels branded Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives who voted against President Joe Biden’s demands to send billions more of American taxpayer dollars to fund the war in Ukraine as “traitors”.

On Saturday, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) for violated the ‘Hastert Rule’, which requires Republican speakers to only put forward bills to the floor of the House if a majority of the GOP conference supports the measure, to push through a $60 billion Ukraine aid bill.

The bill passed with the support of House Democrats, many of whom were seen waving Ukrainian flags and chanting “Ukraine!” in the congressional chamber, with 210 Democrats and 101 Republicans voting in favour, compared to 112 Republicans who opposed the military aid package to Kyiv.

Traitors to what, exactly?

Democrats waving the flag of Ukraine and not the United States, a sitting congressman claiming the US border is in Ukraine...

Alright Eurocrat...I'm for the United States, the founding ideals of this country, and for the general welfare of CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES. If that makes me a "traitor", what are you going to do about it? I'm your huckleberry.

Wanting America to be stronger than Ukraine means you’re a traitor to America. Bizzaro world.

As far as they are concerned we don’t live in the United States of the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution anymore.

Woodrow Wilson was touting a “League of Nations” back in 1919 as you may recall.

During WWII the FDR propaganda spoke of the “United Nations” fighting to win World War II.

The flag and the US Constitution exist and our leaders may reference them from time to time but ultimately the USA of the Founders is in practical terms in the rear view mirror for them.

Pres Reagan and Israel’s powerful lobby....... “The American-Israeli Public Affairs Committee”.........
butted heads over his proposed sale of Airborne Warning Systems to Saudi Arabia in 1981.

The Israeli lobby worked hard against him but Reagan made an important point:
“It is not the business of other nations to make American foreign policy.”

Soros is in on this.........as usual.

theatlantic.com

Eli Lake of The Atlantic reported the shocking fact that George Soros, the billionaire investor whose outspoken hostility to Israel and Zionism is no secret, is in fact one of the Israeli lobby, J Street’s, larger donors........ even though J Street has “denied,” time and time again, that Soros was a supporter.

snip

The Senate’s passage of the Biden funding bill made George Soros very happy.
Is this another source of income for Soros, for his financing lefties in the US govt?

J Street Lobby exhorts supporters——
“On Friday, October 20th, 2023, the Biden Administration sent a Supplemental Funding Request to the Congress that contains key priorities for the American Jewish community:

Please urge your federal elected officials to take action by sending an email below or picking up the phone to call using the script at the end of this form. Your advocacy will help ensure Congress passes the Supplemental Budget Request, which includes the following:

<><>$14.3 Billion in Emergency assistance to Israel: This emergency assistance will bolster Israel’s ability to defend herself and replenish vital defense systems, including the Iron Dome and David’s Sling missile defense programs.

<><>Increased Funding for FEMA’s Nonprofit Security Grant Program (NSGP): Jewish communities are in a state of elevated readiness and have already been forced to increase their security measure. FEMA’s Nonprofit “Security Grant Program” helps ensure the safety and security of Jewish and other faith-based community institutions. The increased funding included in Biden’s Supplemental Budget Request will help bolster our Jewish community’s capacity to protect itself at this challenging time.

<><>$61.4 Billion in Emergency Assistance to Ukraine: The J Street Lobby stands in solidarity with Ukraine and supports efforts to strengthen its democracy in the face of aggression. This funding will aid Ukraine’s efforts to safeguard its democracy and protect its citizens. Jewish Federations are actively engaged in supporting the Ukrainian people—including by resettling over 2,600 displaced Ukrainians across the United States—and we seek continued U.S. support for these critical efforts.”

Reference-——
J street Lobby Policy on the US-Israel Special Relationship
(with the financial help of $750 million from George Soros).

J Street believes that maintaining a strong, vibrant US-Israel relationship is a core American interest. We want to see a secure, thriving Israel that is a healthy democracy, a national home for the Jewish people and a state for all its citizens that embodies the shared values that have long formed the heart of the special relationship between our two countries. We believe that American diplomatic leadership has an important role to play in helping to make this vision a reality, as does cooperation in (financing) Israel’s security, economic, technological, academic and civil society spheres.


WIKI——Confidential IRS documents obtained by The Washington Times in 2010 showed that George Soros had been a donor to J Street since 2008. The approximately $750,000 from Soros and his family, together with donations from Hong Kong-based businesswoman Ms. Consolacion Esdicul, amounted to about 15% of J Street’s funding in its early years.
In previous statements and on its web site J Street had seemed to deny receiving support from foreign interests and from Soros.

J Street’s Jeremy Ben-Ami apologized for earlier “misleading” statements regarding the lobby’s funding from Soros. Ben-Ami also clarified that donors to 501(c)(4) organizations are promised confidentiality by law and challenged critics to make public the contributions from opposing organizations.

Ukraine’s very important to our ‘elites’ and to Europe’s ‘elites’. That’s it. It’s a corrupt country where money can be laundered.

The elties of both regions are allowing their countries to be invated by third world people to provide a servant class and to prop up their own power. The people of Europe and the people of the United States and no business fighting or supporting this stupid war in Ukraine for the benefit of corrupt elites.

US tax dollars to the Ukraine funding deal is being billed as a “loan”
but it is not a “Loan” as honest people define “loans.”

Speaker Johnson’s Ukraine Foreign Aid Package is another contrived “no-repay loan” like Hunter Biden got from his sugar-daddy who, as a Biden donor, happened to have $60 million handily laying around (like most working class people do /s):
<><>the Ukraine “loan” allows Joe to “Forgive” 50% of the billions Nov 15, when Trump wins,
<><>or lets Biden forgive 100% of “the Loan” Later On (If he pulls off a 2nd election steal)

Rotflol......the billion dollar joke’s on us.
Zelensky knows that routine. Its already been tried.


Few years back, billions more of our tax dollars to Israel
were handed out———designated a do-good foreign aid “loan.”

But when it came time to pay, Israel got its lobbies to manhandle Congress.

The battered, bruised Congress sap-happily passed a law
.........saving its collective political ***es.......
quickly turning the foreign aid “loan” billions into a “gift.”

What percentage of the aid is to be used to support Ukrainian bureaucratic retirement funds like the other aid packages?

It has been time for an armistice in Ukraine since day 1.

I will not support aid to Ukraine unless an armistice has been requested by Biden/Zelensky and refused by Russia.

American weapons might have killed 50,000 Russians. Expect negative consequences for the USA and Americans in the future.
