AP source states.

More expensive than our Ukrainian aid packets, which I opposed. Do you Trump die hards support this price tag?

Wouldn't it be better if congress refused and we then just ran out of munitions and gas for the planes with just enough fuel left to turn around and limp back into port?

Eh that is like the equivalent of 10 Somali daycares. We just need a little transfer of wealth and it will pay for itself.

For our own armed forces while they are actively engaged in hostilities? Yes, without question.

I don't see how this is at all comparable to funding a foreign country's war effort.

We could always call it the Fight Inflation Bill 2.0 and lie about it right?

I am NOT in favor of $200 Billion for that...it should be at least $300 billion!

Chief of Staff of the Home Front Command, B.G. Elad Edri, at the site of the kindergarten where an Iranian regime cluster missile hit in Rishon Lezion, central Israel.

“Once again, we see how our enemy aims their targets at civilian populations. They try to kill and impact as much as they can.”

Currently borrowing 50 billion a week, passed 39 trillion last week... These kinds of $'s apparently mean nothing anymore. It's just a 4 lane debt fueled highway to hell. Like Rome, who went broke funding military campaigns ending in currency debasement and run away inflation. And Weimar. So it will be the end of our Republic eventually. Discipline is gone.

I dunno. I think we could get a border wall with that money. But what do I know?
I’m just a simple American that prioritizes his own backyard.
