Yes. We give Israel money and they buy U.S. weapons. The money all comes back....at least to the elites in government and the defense industry.

The idiots in DC just itching to spend more money. It's ludicrous.
Anything they approve, they are getting kick backs from whoever is making money from it. THAT is what drives DC.

Looking forward to receiving 37 letters from the IRS demanding my struggling business pays more taxes.

American taxpayers, baby; basically an offshore account for the Ruling Class.

Complete and utter dumbasses.

This is the government we voted for.

It's all one big club.


And we ain't in it.

Just wait until the war ends and see how much we spend to rebuild.

The GOPe has had two chances to defund the new 87,000 armed irs agents and have passed. They will soon have another chance. What do you think they will do?

Stop voting GOPe.

Easier if you look at it this way: $14 billion for the group that funds campaigns on both sides and $4.8 billion to assuage the guilt of the gullible. I’m sure some NGO’s made up of some of the recipients of the $14 billion will coordinate the distribution of the $4.8 billion.
Easier to just personally donate to John Hagee if you are your average FatAmerican.

Welcome to US foreign aid. We like the perpetual possibility of war at any time.

I had forgotten about that. It's happening? Thought it got rejected.

And we continue to pay more at the gas pump, more at the supermarket and my utility bill keeps going up.

At this point it might be better to just vote a straight leftist ticket. I’m ready to rip the damn band aid off. So tired of the slow demise.

Point this plane towards the ground and throttle up.
