If the House approves this, the United States, a country with a total debt of over 34 trillion dollars, will send a 95 billion dollar aid package for the wars in Ukraine and Israel.

Yes. But at this point they're doubling down on their policy errors. Russia/China literally only needs to hold their position in Ukraine and elsewhere. We are eating ourselves economically

Russia is currently spending around one third of it's budget on military. That's not sustainable long term, unless they want to become North Korea.

That's ok. We'll just keep spending all of our discretionary income on bottles of water and end up with their plastic in our bloodstream someday.
Too bad there's no money to secure our damn border. I'm all for more immigration, but not if they're just going to vote for more socialism or commit crime.
