You mean she, surely? Dunno what "he" you're referring to. It's a house bill proposed by a female Representative from New York.

Great headline though. Helps distract from the Direct Act, which would redirect the funding from all the fired IRS agents to hire more border patrol/ICE agents.

Also, it appears you don't do your own shopping. Went out and shopped yesterday. Prices are down. What are you even talking about?

All true.

Except the part about how USA is not getting anything back. US corporations will get a much bigger piece of cake out of Ukraine than Europe.

10% for The Big Guy

what about Israel?

What about them?

Trump rambles so much. Needs to stop bringing up the past including Biden's fuckups.

To be fair, the entire US response to the Ukraine/Russia situation was a rather giant fuckup, and has largely led to where we are now.

Regarding some subjects, I agree with you. Like he keeps talking about the 2020 election being stolen from him. Okay, maybe, maybe not. But he's got his second term, right now. He won. Both the electoral and popular votes. Enough about 2020 election results.

With the Ukraine situation though, the Biden Administration was far too instrumental in getting us to the situation as it exists today. Hard to talk Ukraine without talking about Biden. Almost as difficult as it is without mentioning Zelensky and Putin.

trump is whining about aid to ukraine, why is he completely ignoring the aid we give to israel? the israel aid money is a LOT more, trust me

I'm not certain what aid to Ukraine has to do with aid to Israel. We've been giving the same amount of aid to Israel for decades. That aid isn't earmarked for war.

I don't like the aid we give to Israel. They have no debt, and are not deficit spending. All Israeli aid should be stopped today. And I've maintained that point, here in PaRD, for a decade and a half.

The counterargument is that there are terms for Israeli aid, and those terms require that US Contractors and/or US companies be responsible for handling all the shit that the aid money goes towards. So if we cut off that aid, we're "killing jobs".

I'm okay with killing jobs for the henchmen of politicians. Doesn't bother me.

Now, do we agree on Israel aid being bullshit? If so, I ask again, what does Israeli aid have to do with Ukraine?

Edit: Oh, it's not more. Hundreds of millions per year is less than hundreds of billions in 3 years. Thanks.
