Looks like Speaker Johnson is finally growing a pair and putting Ukraine aid forward.

Sounds like we need legislation to reform our immigration and asylum system.
Why? Do we need to let the idiots that caused the problem fix it? With something that makes sense. Or do we clean up after them all the time so they learn nothing. Option 2. Reinstate the executive orders you got rid of. Problem solved.

But that doesn't address the asylum program which is the man issue.
Asylum should be controlled by a yearly maximum of less than 500. We are not responsible for the people of the rest of the world nor the hideous leaders that oppress them.
Our children are getting a half ass education and we have inner cities in rot. The American government needs to not waste another dime ... ever.

There's always been foreign aid to other countries....always. Why stop now?

Make it make sense? Are you making the point for ALL foreign aid which accounts for around 2% of annual budget or how about looking at the defense budget which makes up about 13% of annual budget?

Or how about the Trump tax cuts which were $1.5T that the top 10% saw 85% of the benifit.


Republican policies do anything but benefit the guy just evicted from his house because Telsa layoffs.
on the subject of foreign aid, we certainly learned by now is information flows more readily these days most foreign aid goes over throwing up in the air run through the washing machine and dryer thrown up in the air again and comes back home. Why stop now? Cause we’re ****ing broke

There is a big difference between foreign aid and an unaccountable unlimited slush fund. F Ukraine.

How long do we keep giving it? When do we ask Ukraine to "cease fire" because the Liberal Loons are mad at the genocide? Yall notice how these 2 wars are covered totally differently?

Like i said , **** Ukraine. You make everything about Trump, which is just Low IQ stuff.

We all want water, so we turn the faucet off because the owner of the water company is making too much money. Makes sense.

Then we tax or regulate him further.

The rich guy cuts his staff, hurting families. He then gets the faucet turned back on, paying higher tax rate and higher regulation fees, charging the user more.

So it hurts the poor and middle class.

If you have rich political elite, do they care what you pay?

Rich political elite remove class financial distinctions. It’s the way of socialist countries. Rich political elite and a working class.

Cut off the business owner and you aren’t employed. That’s how you get $20 and hour McDonalds employees.
71%

I think the party you ask for ceasefire is Russia and Putin since you know...they invaded Ukraine.

Right. And 18 months ago we could have asked Ukraine to agree to terms. But we didnt , knowing that Ukraine had about as much of a chance as UT Martin beating UGA.

Yes lets cut the thing that makes up 3% of our budget and would take 100 years to reduce our national debt. That's like saying you're 2 million in debt with 3 sports cars in your garage but you're really going make sure the lights in your house are off when you leave to save money. You should either brush up on the Pareto Principles or 80/20 rule or admit you're being disingenuous.

No we couldn't, what are you talking about. Russia was marching toward Kiev and committing war crimes...what terms are they supposed to agree when Putin has said he wants all of Ukraine. Make it make sense.

"Asked if the Reuters report that Russia had made peace proposals was true, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said: "No. It is not true."

Cutting off all foreign aid is not realistic.
But, 3% of our current budget would be $192B.
Saying a 3% savings is not significant is just wrong.
There are many places to cut expenses a little and that would be a positive.
Illegals are getting huge amounts of government support they do not deserve. They are also using our VA healthcare system. That is absolutely criminal. Biden's activist dipshits in the white house are using federal money to fly illegals in from deeper in Mexico to avoid detection. They should go to jail.
Oh but wait, Donald Trump paid a whore!! I've paid a few myself. When's my court date?

The US outgoings for 2023 was $6.1T. That means the $192B is 0.0000316393% of our budget. Again the GOP isn't serious about our debt and deficit if this is what you're complaining about.

 


For those saying they want to stop giving aid to Ukraine. Aiding Ukraine in their defense of Russia is key to American foreign policy and interst in Eastern Europe. I'm still waiting on someone to explain why it's good for the US that Russia take Ukraine. I guess it's just their TDS kicking in

"The risks of a Russian attack against NATO in the near future would rise dramatically if the US allows Russia to defeat Ukraine now, and the challenge of defending the Baltic States in particular could become almost insurmountable."

how about not putting words into Pot's question... he did NOT say or hint at stopping funding .. his direct question is why do WE not take care of our own border when we DO fund other countries.

That border bill was chocked full of democrat pork and designed to actually make it easier for illegals to be released into the US.
You had that explained to you earlier in this very thread. Apparently your lack of comprehension is accompanied by a poor memory.
Either that or you really don't GAF what the truth is.
I suspect it is a combination of the factors.

I admit there was money in the omnibus bill for the southern border. There was none for the northern border which is becoming an issue as well. A large portion was NOT for border security. It was more funds for hiring more staff, infrastructure for processing and admitting ILLEGAL immigrants. That is why many are against it. Plus, as hard is it is to say, I do question or struggle with my own views about Ukraine support. The government is and always has been corrupt. I fully support the suffering people caught in the crossfire of war and corruption - both Ukraine AND US. So there were absolutely valid reasons to oppose. Even if you do not agree with it. Down deep, it is more than just aiding suffering Ukraine.

It's been corrupt because it's been beholden to Russia but they want to instead align themselves with the EU. The EU has already said cool but you need to get your corrupt problem together...so why is it a bad thing to help them stamp pit corruption and join the EU?

Border patrol has already said they need that funding to house the asylum seekers until their hearing. I would think thats a good thing to have facilitiesand infrastructureto house asylum seekers somewhere secure where you can keep tabs on them.
 
Words cannot describe how much I loathe the Republican Party.
You trying to destroy the United States of America by supporting a party that opened our boarders to millions of illegals need government help . And you loath the few people that opposes border closing . Well as an America citizen we loathe you .

I’m not sure you’ve ever actually read any of my post if you think I support the Biden regimes border policy.

I loathe the Republican Party because it doesn’t do any of the things you say, despite being elected to do those very things. The democrats are horrible, true, and I would happily cheer if democrat political leaders faced criminal prosecution but they make no secret about what they want to do. They openly hate us.

Mike Johnson, claims he is concerned about our border, but he is more concerned about Ukraine and Israel’s border than our own.

He is an utterly useless man who should be exiled from this nation.

He is Judas while the democrats are merely Pharisees openly calling for Barrabas.

So yes I do loathe him and the Republican Party. They have done nothing for us and sail us down the river at every opportunity.

I absolutely sent it to you for that reason. It's smart black voters who have had enough. They are going after the worthless democrats who are also black because of horrible policy.
White voters going after worthless white politicians is more commonplace. But, things are changing. Wake up.
What are your reasons for voting democrat? It can't be policy.

The fact that you have to ask a random black person on a UGASPORTS Board tells me you've never listened or been friends with anyone from a race other than your own.

Let's see, I was a combat Marine and over 20 years a DoD agent and you think I don't have black friends. You are delusional.
You're not random. You've shown yourself to be the most racist person on this forum. My friends all have more common sense than you. You think of absolutely everything in racial terms.

Well then Devil Dog, why don't you ask all those "black friends" that you have the question you asked instead of some random black dude on the internet.

And for the record....again in as many weeks race is bought into a discussion with me when race has no place in what's being talked about. You bought race into this discussion as an attempt to dunk on me, which by the way is something anyone with "black friends" in real life would never do.

So call up your "black friends"🫢...and have this discussion with them over a beer. Who knows maybe you'll learn a different perspective than your sheltered own.

Actually I talked to my great friend Eddie who used to play for the Braves and Dodgers about why he voted for Biden. He said he thought he should, but now he knows better. I asked him why he thought he should and he said he fell for the bullshit. But since he lives in Cali it probably won't do much good.
I don't need to ask Al up the street because he already has a TRUMP 24 sign in his yard. But he's a Christian and voted for Trump last time and in 2016 also.
I haven't talked to Chuck yet but we have a poker game Saturday. He's a toss up. We'll drink some Johnny Walker Black and talk straight. He's not a phony like you. He don't hide behind playing the race card.

Your math is as pathetic as your spelling ... and your racist agenda.
192B goes into 6.1T roughly 32 or 33 times. So, 1/33 X 100 gives you the percent. He’s only off by 5 or 6 decimal places.

To be precise, it’s 3.1475%.

Maybe that’s why he thinks there are 400MM white supremacists in the US.

Not all black people think alike. There is a very good chance you and his black friends do not agree with each other. The link proves some in that area are becoming wise to the grift. Will you ever find your red pill, or are you doomed to "everything is racist" liberal group think?
 
Ummmmmm the pandemic shutdown the country for over a year and f'd up supply chain within multiple industries in tech, housing and manufacturing.

And again why you're only bring up small business when discussing the Trump tax cuts and how it affected the middle class. Again only 7% of the country classify as small business. What about the other 93%?
Only 7?

More like every person with a job:

"while delivering a small increase in worker pay"

Wise to the gift. The GOP used to have strong black conservatives that I liked and admired: Colin Powell, Condoleezza Rice and J.C. Watts. Those black conservatives are no longer welcome in MAGA because its rooter in bigoted nationalist rhetoric and stripped all party influence from these amazing people. And who did MAGA replace them with...two grifting minstrel shows Diamond and Silk.

Also how am I racist? What power am I wielding over white America?
