Your Congressman voted for Biden’s Ukraine slush fund so he wouldn’t be called “ pro Russian”

Change my mind

How weak and unable to multi task will conservatives become? Quite it seems, sadly.

So, a corrupt state gets aid, but Maui’s getting disaster “aid” in the form of loans?

Well they are getting creative in finding funds. I understand the Social Security Administration kicked in a few million. Wonder if that counted toward the deficit.

$200 million? That’s it? That’s only $20 million for the big guy. Barely enough to guy up two of those now vacated plots in Maui on which to build his new mansion.

To: rlmorel; All
Thank you for referencing that article rlmorel.

",i>"...total U.S. security assistance power of the purse House security assistance to Ukraine at roughly $43 billion...""


There! Fixed it.

The very corrupt, post-17th Amendment ratification Congress once again blatantly ignores that foreign aid is unconstitutional imo. Justice Joseph Story had put it this way.

If the tax be not proposed for the common defence, or general welfare, but for other objects, wholly extraneous, (as for instance, for propagating Mahometanism among the Turks, or giving aids and subsidies to a foreign nation, to build palaces for its kings, or erect monuments to its heroes,) it would be wholly indefensible upon constitutional principles [emphases added].” — Justice Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution 2 (1833).

Democratic and Republican Trump-supporting patriots need to get ready ASAP to support Trump campaign by primarying ALL state and federal, lawmakers and executives, except for MTG Gaetz (and others?), for the 2024 primaries.

After all, lawmakers and executives continue to show that they do not have the patriotism and leadership skills necessary to find legislative support for effective remedies for unconstitutional government policies.

Exclusive: Marjorie Taylor Greene ‘Dumbfounded’ GOP Colleagues Will Not Call for Biden’s Impeachment! (6.10.23)

In fact, consider that, since one of the very few powers that the states have expressly constitutionally given to the big, bad federal government to dictate peacetime domestic policy is to run the US Mail Service (most federal domestic policy actually based on stolen state powers imo), the worst problem that the country would otherwise be looking at with a new Congress of Trump-supporting freshman lawmakers is arguably a delay with mail delivery.

Trump can endorse candidates from lists that patriots who respect the federal government's constitutionally limited powers provide for him, as long as candidates are not incumbents, candidates also promising to repeal the 16th (direct taxes) and 17th (popular voting for federal senators) Amendments after they win office.

The definition of insanity is reelecting your beloved career state and federal lawmakers and executives over and over again, expecting those same politicians to find remedies for unconstitutional government policies every time.

Patriots, let's not allow ourselves to be fooled for third time in 2024 by the corrupt, constitutionally undefined political parties that have pirated control of state and federal governments.

“The latest package places total U.S. security assistance to Ukraine at roughly $43 billion since Russia invaded in February 2022, meaning the remaining funds for Ukrainian forces is fast approaching their limit.”

“...places total U.S. security assistance to Ukraine at roughly $43 billion...”

Seems like every day there’s new money being sent to the Ukraine. Is a growing on a tree somewhere?

After ‘big guy’ gets his 10% ‘taste’, Hunter Crackheadpedo gets his 10% cut, the globohomo dancer gets his 20% and various other generals and underlings in Youcraint gubmint/military hierarchy get their cut, there should be $5.47 left to spend on Youcraint security.

It is, after all, US taxpayer dollars, well, spent.

Hawaii votes reliably Democrat.
They’ll get plenty of dough in 2024.
