If Kyle were wise, he’d know that it goes directly in politicians pockets as graft and money laundering, not aid. If it’s labeled “aid,” it’s nothing more than marketing. They rely on the Christian’s guilt and compassion to fund the poor directly out of pocket, while they only make a show and manipulate politically. He should call it exactly what it is, and fight the right battle. As it is, he’s a tool. I’ve seen where aid goes in enough foreign countries to not be naïve. Kyle doesn’t help mend any fences that might prevent a civil war, which is their end game.

Set up a fight on the wrong argument, then we all look as fools and lose.

Look, instead of advocating the impoverishment of America and Americans, couldn’t you spend time helping to advance the further impoverishment of Germany and Germans? Give the Ukrainians the current inventory of German weapons, fuel and ammunition. Consider those gifts to be of obsolete materials and therefore of no cost to Germany.

It’s fine that he has an opinion. But at his age, there is little wisdom or experience to put much weight behind it. He is the Greta of the cultists.”

Jeez, when it comes to protecting actual Western Civilization, Rittenhouse is likely worth hundreds of you.

That would be nice. Unfortunately, as always we will pay the brunt of it as we always do.

Definitely. It’s sickening. We can’t have nice things because we spend it on the world literally.

You're under the impression nobody has died in this war? It was just a big game of Parcheesi?

FR is infested with ghouls.

That kid did everything wrong. Not criminal, but wrong.

And the civil-war crowd has a hardon for the kid. He is a kid. He should join the military so he can learn small unit tactics.

Stop driving us more into debt @POTUS we don’t have 45 billion dollars to just hand out, millions of Americans are struggling to put food on the table because of the inflation rates under your administration and you’re spending AMERICAN CITIZENS tax dollars like money is endless.

All done by the influence of Victorian agnostic homosexual Liberal hereditary peer, John Maynard Keynes, 1st Baron Keynes, who gave the world the understanding that it is OK to "rob Peter to pay Paul", "kick the can down the road", and use perpetual inflation as a tool for government.

Unlike you Putin Stooge, I am a patriotic Freedom Loving American.

How about you move to your beloved State of Terror, Russia, if you are so impoverished?

The willingness to sacrifice the lives of thousands if not millions of other people just to achieve American political objectives is EXACTLY the kind of accusation leveled against us by many foreign countries to justify their hating us. I used to argue with such people, but here we are.

The war in Ukraine would never have started without US/NATO intervention in Ukraine in 2014, or the corrupt Biden administration discouraging peace talks between the two countries more recently. Meanwhile, many Ukrainians and Russians are getting killed. In addition, if the Russian military could be so stymied by the backwater Ukrainians, then I guess they weren't really much of a threat anyway, eh? So no need to sacrifice an entire Eastern European country to destroy them?

We have become the evil everyone said we were.

Not at all. He was just not well trained. Sure, he could shoot. But he never should have gotten himself in the situation he was in.

It’s amusing how you guys jump to assigning thoughts and opinions to people you don’t know—and make assumptions based on your own mindset.

That’s a sad way to go through life. You close your mind off to anything but your black and white view of the world.. I feel bad for you.

“...With just 5% of annual military budget, US has been able to cripple 🇷🇺 army, while upholding int’l stability & sending a powerful message to would-be invaders. Hard to think of a better ROI, especially given that much of the aid is outdated equipment US looking to replace anyway...”

The above is one of the best economy-of-words posts ever. Of course, the lion’s share of the credit goes to the young Ukrainian lads at the front lines who are willing to do their duty. Afghanistan got mega tonnages of military assistance. Ukraine actually uses theirs with courage and intrepid strategy and tactics.

You can’t get more corrupt than Afghans losing and less corrupt than Ukrainians winning.
