We should pull all money and funds from Israel, Taiwan, South Korea, NATO, and others, so that we can really tackle all of our issues. None of those issues will really affect us, so why waste our money there? The world would be so much better that way.

Until our debt is paid off, we should have ZERO international aid.

We can send our ships to help with storm or earthquake disasters, but no more money printing.

I would rather force MIC help U.S. citizens in U.S. cities and states than give MIC money to spend in Ukraine so Zelensky can buy another mansion.

It is a shame these won't even sniff the light of day. But she is right in principle here.

The notion of sending a hundred billion dollars overseas when there are Americans in the United States that need relief from disasters is unconscionable to me.

And that is not even getting into our crumbling infrastructure, the border, etc., which are also issues that should be fully funded and addressed before one single cent is sent overseas.

There are some people that will be very upset at MTG for proposing this amendment to divert funds to Ohio & Hawaii all the while never expressing any anger at the Republicans who vote for giving $100B to Ukraine and Israel.

This should actually make some good ads against Ukraine first politicians back home. In an ominous voice, "______ voted to fund Ukraine instead of our own U.S. citizens in East Palestine and Maui. Check their congressional record. How can you trust ______ when they would rather spend billions to help Ukrainian pension funds instead of U.S. citizens. Ask _____ why they support Ukraine over the people in East Palestine and Maui."
