1. he's saying the truth...

stopping russian aggression now will save American lives from an actual wider conflict...

completely agree


2. the federal government has to wait for the Governor of ohio to declare a state of emergency before funds can be disbursed...

I hate people who comment on politics but don't understand the political system

From understanding history, I agree that there are major political consequences if Russia takes over Ukraine and threatens to annex other countries.

I think this is way more complex than the average American thinking "but what about X Domestic Problem?!?!?!"

Yeah. We get it. There's shyt to do at home.
But it's not an Either/Or situation.

You think these same protests by Americans weren't happening when Hitler was taking over Poland and shyt? Or when the 1st World War started? You think Woodrow Wilson wasn't trying to avoid getting into "European affairs" ?? Americans have tried to self-isolate under the guise of "America First" ideas for well over 100 years -- almost always with disastrous consequences.

Read a book. Watch a PBS documentary. Anything.

Nobody WANTS to send billions to Ukraine. But nobody wants another USSR either.
What the fukk do you think was going on for 50 years in the last century?

Edit - I'm not saying that by sending money to Ukraine, America is validating everything ugly about Ukraine. I'm as disgusted by the white supremacists that are seemingly fighting on both sides of this war. Shiiiiiiit. I'm out here paying damn near $10 for eggs like all of you. I want some of that money going overseas too. I just think the situation is more complicated than my personal, immediate needs.

US Military Aid To Ukraine Exceeds The Costs Of Afghanistan

Ukraine receives the most military aid from the United States: Since the beginning of the war and as of Jan. 15, 2023, $46.6 billion in financial aid for military purposes has flowed to the country now at war with Russia.

When calculating the average annual costs (in 2022 prices) of previous wars in which the United States has been involved in, the true magnitude of the country's Ukraine aid expenditure can be seen.

As Statista's Martin Armstrong shows in the infographic below, the payments to Ukraine have already exceeded the annual military expenditure of the U.S. in the war in Afghanistan from 2001 to 2010. The U.S. military costs in the Vietnam War, the Iraq War and the Korean War were significantly higher - according to calculations by the Kiel Institute for the World Economy as part of its Ukraine Support Tracker.

It's been fukk Zelensky since the beginning.

I always thought that it was strange that this President wears sweats and travels around the world begging for money and weapons.

How can you be Jewish yet praising and having Neo Nazi battalions?

Without all the assistance the war would've been over by now.


Also fukk Putin too.
