People have a profound lack of understanding about the "billions of dollars to other countries to fund wars". Honestly, it's like this country has gone full "Idiocracy".
Money is NOT sent to off countries. The "money" provides jobs to people HERE to make weapons and equipment that is sent to countries - it provides good paying jobs here. That's why House Republicans are blocking aid to Ukraine because they want to tank the economy. That is why they will try to shut down the government. That is why they working so hare to create a worsening border crisis.
Like those pallets of US cash sent to Iraq and Afghanistan that magically went missing? What about this? https://apnews.com/article/fact-check-us-aid-ukraine-money-equipment-714688682747
Honey, sweetie, baby, it’s a simplistic way of putting it. I’m sure that raging at strangers on the internet is a good time for you but please take some time to breathe in between so you don’t give yourself an aneurysm.
Literally not part of the current discussion, but it is no big surprise to anyone what the republicans are doing.
They weren't mad lmao your first reply was incredibly rude and unwarranted
