So many traitors
Slava Ukraine!! 🇺🇦🇺🇸.............Слава Україн!🇺🇦🇺🇸
The House is Always on Recess
It's well beyond the point where you really can't trust any of them anymore.
Not even one of them. Not even a little bit.
The only one I trust is MTG. The rest send them all home on voting day.
Rand Paul I'll vote for him to be our next president any f....g time
US is the World Leader !
What Republicans want is US to be the World Tyrant , which WE can't because of our DNA.
You never should of trusted them.
Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty! Thomas Jefferson
Your Grandchildren and Children will thank them. What a wasteful cesspool our government has become both sides.
There won't be any descendants left at this rate.
Dems and Repubs need to clean house!!! STOP wasting our tax dollars!!
I agree! Still funding Ukraine is some of the best money spent on our nations part in a very longtime in this countries history. The information we’ve gathered regarding Russian capabilities or lack there for of is priceless. We’ve a test bed for ours and our allies weapons systems some of which are so old there due to be retired and on strategies that work immensely valuable and without shedding a drop of American blood while bleeding Russia in the process… chefs kiss perfect)

AIPAC paid him off.
Isn’t this how democracy should work? If you go against your word you should be lose your seat. That goes for any politician.
We are a Republic, not a Democracy (mob rules).
We value Liberty, not "freedom".
That’s what Lindsey Grann does everyday.
Perhaps. But in our Constitutional Republic, the representatives have to vote for their constituents voice.
😅yes it do it used to work that way
Then there would be no left in congress.
All in to defend the borders of Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan. The USA, not so much.
Make Reps accountable for that
Trump killed the border bill , have you not been paying attention?
donny, a man that holds no political office, stopped the closing of the border.
So you think defending our borders begins AT our borders? Education: get one.
Tell the trump owned Republican party to pass the border bill! Every illegal crossing is trumps fault now, he blocked the bilL. Trump IS the deep state.
I know people who are having difficulty buying groceries to feed their kids.
Help Americans first.
The government spends trillions on us every year. If you want to save them some money, then help our allies yourself.
Were these folks being helped prior to Russia invading its much smaller neighbor? Was none talking about helping them? Were you even or is this just a lame excuse that will be dumped once we abandoned Ukraine?
95 Billion Tax dollars for global interests.
Absolutely, because the US has global interests. Do you think the US exists in a vacuum?
When American was great, it was because global interests were American interests.
Making the world better is a good thing, actually
@@MyselfTheThird Negative. It's being wasted.

Which are the Fascists? The one trying to protect Americans tax money or the people filling slush funds with it?
So now not funding foreign wars is hardline and extreme right? What does that make the representatives who support this bill?
So.... we shouldn't support allies who are being invaded by a belligerent adversary?
America should just shrug and tell the Ukrainians "Huh.... well, sucks to be you I guess." ?
To many, appeasing Putin is unacceptable. I agree : no appeasement for the murderous Putin regime.
Greedy
Dove hawks?
Very good question.
It's not about foreign aid. It's about money laundering money back into their own coffers.
95 billion goes to weapons, industrial military complex, and politicians pockets🤬

Where were actual republicans over the course of 20 years in the Middle East????
I just had to pay over $1,500 in taxes. What's sad is that it is unwillingly going to illegal criminals and Ukraine.
And stupid Israel
we need to stop paying our taxes. They cannot force us to be part of their corruption
I paid $4500 and just see the federal government as useless as ever.
But wait Lester you said earlier Ukraine is going to win? 200 billion later, are they closer to winning? What, they’ve had over 500k dead and now they hope to only hold onto what they have, what about driving the Russians out of eastern Ukraine and Crimea too? But they had the full support (and funding) of the US and NATO, and you said Russian troops were demoralized and losing ground every day. What happened to the earlier 113 billion? Where did it go?
Leave it to the adults to help Ukraine, all the conspiracies point back to Russian fake information.
Putin got tired of seeing his once suburb of Russia used as a money laundering piggy bank for Democrats.
And somehow his invasion has made it worse..
Sometimes you just can't win and you just can't lose..
Clowns to the left of me. Jokers to the right.
Here I am

Why don't you go do it?
It went in the washing machine, The Tale of The Laundry Maids. Should be a best seller.
Exactly. I’m disgusted with this country. Beyond corrupt and crooked.
This isn't a hard concept. Keep tax payer money in America instead of sending it to other countries.
Tell that to Moscows "illegals" program which uses and abuses the hijacked identities of real citizens to apply for things like social security, grants, and loans.. you think that could be the "dead" voters that are getting through registration, anon account?
Strengthening allies is the cheapest way to ensure the safety of America. You woul rather encourage China to follow Putin and start wars in Asia and then you would decide Asia and its markets is to important for the US and send in the navy. Johnson understood what this would mean.
What? Have you read the bill? This money is going into military weapons manufacturing IN AMERICA, all we are doing is sending them the weapons WE MADE. No money lost here.
Israel aid is admirable and righteous, the rest is pure BS.
Time to wake up. The United States has signed a treaty with Ukraine either we honor it or we just allow Putin to steamroll through Eastern Europe
We are all suckers for believing in politicians Republican Democrats Independence all they care about is the money they can make
Yeap

Unless it's voting time 🤓 🖕
This is disgusting! I’m so sick of us passing this funding when we have dying and homeless AMERICANS

He will still be the speaker too

Jim Jordan would be the perfect candidate but they are too corrupt to vote for him. Almost all of them. Its sick
Gym gym should be in jail.
That’s sadly funny… Gym Jordan deviously funny:)
America has homeless , America has hungry starving children, America has housing that is condemned but lived in, America has kids without clothing or supplies, America has kids living in the dark, America has kids barefoot walking, America has elderly begging on corners. But we continue to ignore them as we support other countries for these very things.
So basically you need a handout for your kids because you can’t keep a job? Is that what your saying?
Ugh. Since when hasn’t this been an issue?
Problems patting your head and rubbing your stomach at the same time?
If the government really wanted to these problems could be fixed, but that ain’t in their interests.
What you are seeing is the end results of the republicans trickled down economics policies started by Ronnie Regan. America now has over 1,100 billionaires while the middle class has been reduced to poverty.
Pass the bill, then dump MAGA Mike!!!! 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
It’s not just $61 billion. Ukraine will need massive annual cash infusions to stave off total defeat. So, it’s $61 billion as the baseline for an annual appropriation in a new forever war. Iraq and Afghanistan wars also began with annual appropriations in the $60B range. Those wars ended up costing trillions. The new funding bill could do no more than possibly buy Ukraine precisely half of a Summer Counteroffensive.
Ukraine isn't going to be around when "annual" is discussed. My guess is this forces Putin to take Odessa and potentially siege Kiev to force negotiations. This will be over before winter.
They should remove him this country and the people can keep spending money for other countries that the people of the American people need for themselves
Too bad the Republicans have voted against every bill to help out the average American for the past 2 decades.
Only another 95 billion. Thank you US taxpayer. Remember to work hard.
Given how much of my paycheck is gutted by taxes, I should have some say in where the money goes.
Nope. It all goes overseas. With no accounting. Undoubtedly so there is no record of kickbacks.
It has become taxation without representation. That didn't work out well in the past.
You do have some say, if you vote.

Crazy
$63 billion, what will the spend it on? Weapons and ammunition, military hardware, who makes that? American manufacturers.
DON'T forget the big guy!
Approximately $0.00
It gets stashed by Ukrainian oligarchs. Just like every other "foreign aid" we give other nations. It's disgusting. They should all be giving us aid for the military bases we have within their borders keeping them safe.
listen to me, NONE of these funds are Tracked. Nobody can tell any of us how its spent.
But Zelenskyy's friends are driving the most expensive cars in Europe. Does anyone wonder how they paid for it? Nope.

Glad to see Hakeem Jeffries and Johnson cooperating. MTG and Gaetz are nuts.
CLOSE THE BORDER
the GOP doesn't want to vote on that bill, Trump needs the chaos to have something to run on. Why don't you do the right thing and call your representative and demand a vote on the immigration bill?
You should ask the GOP why they tanked their own border bill
Democrats do want to strengthen border security, but Republicans keep blocking all bills for the border, including just straight up funding for Border Patrol.
Bills for the border, introduced by Democrats, all voted down and blocked by Republicans.

It is very hard to understand why so many Americans don't understand that international geopolitics and international affairs, especially when they come to Russia, are crucial and even existencial for America. This is not even about helping other democracies, it is about maintaining the hegemony of American influence in the world, basically because American wealth, American safety and American existence is absolutely relied on that. Not only that, many Americans don't even realise that the USA has a massive amount of enemies in the planet, some of them are mayor military powers, and if America loses the global hegemony in favor of China-Russia-Iran, and loses its allies (or even gets out of NATO), the USA won't be able to defend itself and the total destruction of America would be a question on months. American's safety as a country totally depends on American's presence around the world, that is not just used for hegemony and for economical wealth but crucially to contain the very many enemies of America. If America withdraws from the world, America would be totally destroyed! I think the world is seeing the outcome of having a bad educational system in the US: so many Americans totally ignore on what American's wealth and safety rely.... and many of these total ignorants are in the congress supporting Trump! (especially Marjorie Greene) That brutal ignorance can destroy America!
Straight sold us out!!!

How did he sell "us" out?
@@user-pd5qz2vt2c Which means 75% of the House thumbed their noses at most likely voters since a recent poll found that likely voters oppose the "loan" to Ukraine by 47% to 33%.

No, they don't get that because they don't realize that the hammer and sickle loving comrad they watch on TickTock is deceiving them..... they fully believe we shouldn't help others.
