It wouldn’t be hard to find quick evidence in my post history of me likely being a much bigger Trump supporter, and fan, than you. Go play in traffic. I don’t have time for you. You’re lucky I even addressed you.

If he's sending my tax money to another country, I have a fricking Need to Know clearance.
He wants to borrow money to give to the Ukraine so they can fight the Russians, who are Chinese allies. WTF?

I ain’t trying to sweat you or anyone else down in this particular situation. You’re perfectly justified in your feelings about Ukraine. But my man you have to make yourself look further through the trees, at the bigger picture.

If you think you’re entitled to know everything there is to know in this instance, then that precedent should apply across the board, including the instances wherein top security clearance situations are mandatory for the surveillance and resulting intelligence be quality enough to be effective in foiling something that none of us want to see. See a previous post of mine that references the real potential for terroristic activities that would (God forbid “will”) turn some one’s loved family member(s) into a pink cloud. Vaporized. Incinerated. Or you end up hearing that a loved one had to make that incomprehensible, conscious decision to take a step out of a window - from the 90th floor. Let’s try to reserve some belief in these things actually being in your best interest every now and then.

Except that I don't believe Ukraine is in my best interest, yours, or this country's.

I’m the one that take idiots deep to the sea floor and drown their asses. Metaphorically speaking. Happened to you just a short while ago.

Maybe, just maybe....the people who keep electing politicians like this, back into their never-ending government slush fund, should vote their asses out! Instead, we get the government we deserve. I would bet good money than less than half of the people in his district, can name their congressman. But they can sure as frick name the HC of LSU, the last winner of American Idol, and who has the #1 rap song on the charts.

I don’t necessarily either. I was making a counterpoint to your assertion that you should have access to the same intelligence or “highest security clearance information” that Johnson does or would, considering yours and my tax dollars are involved. I simply made the point that that probably shouldn’t be the case because there ARE places where our tax dollars are expended where it IS in mine and yours and our loved ones best interest - and old fashioned top secret, top security clearance information would be quite counterproductive. If I misinterpreted you, then my apologies.

The big question in my mind, who is providing intelligence of a threat?? We cannot trust our OWN government so how the hell can they be trusted to inform decision makers with truthful information??

Get ahold of yourself and stop fussing to me about every gripe that comes to mind. For all you know I don’t even disagree with your sentiments to that end. Pay attention to pertinent details. Think before speaking. And probably just speak less. You started slinging shite, not me.

Yeah that sounds real rational and logical, apply that to any and all future times. Hey when your wife and kids are turned into a pink cloud from one of these possible terrorist cells Biden let in and it comes to pass that they were sponsored by a particular anti-American country, shut your mouth when you feel like we need to get you some payback from our special forces or other military. That’s what you’ll get. Better not see any of these other little pussies around here crying if or when it happens to them either.


I don’t fear death. Do you? Oh and how does giving endless money to Ukraine have anything to do with terrorist cells coming across our borders?
