The US is the only country with wide open borders.  Every other country understands the costs and security risks.  There is nothing racist about it. 


Jordan's King Abdullah said during a news conference in Germany that neither Jordan nor Egypt would accept Palestinian refugees from Gaza, where more than 1 million people have been displaced by the war between Israel and Hamas terrorists.

"No refugees in Jordan, no refugees in Egypt," King Abdullah said in Berlin Tuesday,

Old Joe is going to propose tomorrow to give Israel and Ukraine 100 BILLION dollars.  That's billion with "b".  On top of the billions that have already been sent to Ukraine.  I'm all for supporting these countries but where is that kind of money coming from?  How many other countries are going to contribute an equivalent amount?  That's a rhetorical question because the answer is none.  Why does the US rush into these conflicts time and again?  Israel is perfectly capable of doing what needs to be done.  They have already been sold or given the military equipment to wage this war.  How much would it cost to just buy Gaza and pay Egypt or someone to take the residents?  It couldn't be anything near $100 billion and the problem solved instead of waging war for years and nothing being any different at the end than the beginning.

You've said some pretty stupid things in the past, but this one beats them all. Just how ignorant can you be?

Of all the slimy things Old Joe and the Dems have pulled, tying funding for Israel to Ukraine ranks near the top.  Old Joe knows that support for the endless and pointless war in Ukraine is flagging.  So he is taking advantage of the recent tragedy in Israel to fund it.  And when the Republicans reject that request, he will say they hate Israel when almost every single one of them would have supported a standalone bill to fund Israel.  Slimy politics. But after politicizing the pandemic to win an election anything goes for Ukraine Joe.  He is also looking worse and worse.  Staring blankly at the camera and mumbling nonsense.  Unreal that he is the person in charge as the world comes apart.

So much hatred, anger, oversimplification, misinformation and utter lies from a guy who supports a real criminal, who is now being confronted by guilty pleas by lawyers who were his co-conspirators in Georgia, in one of four criminal cases he faces, who stands to lose his NY based businesses because of the massive fraud he committed and who leads a party that has shown itself to be completely unable to govern. Hell they can't even get their own house in order and select a speaker...... Hilarious.

And btw, the world is only "coming apart" in your paranoid, delusional, mind.

Old Joe is now asking for $105 billion with the vast majority going to Ukraine.  Using Israel as a proxy to get money for his endless war.   Shameless.  There is still no plan or clear objective for the war in Ukraine.  It just goes on and on with the US sending more billions while "Europe" spends its money on their own citizens.  Meanwhile in America the cities are in ruin.  Crime is rampant.  The schools are a disaster.   Homeless are overrunning the cities.  Bet we are sending tens of billions to Ukraine for some unspecified purpose.

That's simply not true. Europe is paying it's part as well.

Meanwhile in America the cities are in ruin.  Crime is rampant.  The schools are a disaster.   Homeless are overrunning the cities.

Here's an idea... let's put the Republicans in charge of the House and they will clean up this mess in no time.......  Oh, wait.... they are already in the majority.... Go figure, could have fooled me

Bet we are sending tens of billions to Ukraine for some unspecified purpose.

Unspecified purpose? Really.... Is this just another display of your ignorance?

Would you prefer Putin takes over Ukraine without the West doing anything to stop him? That would be a hell of a message to send, right? What country would be next, do you think? And more importantly, how much money and how many lives would it cost down the road to stop "Hitler II" once he's on the move and really threatens world peace?
