I just heard that US support for Ukraine is waning.
The criticism of US money going to support Ukraine is primarily coming from our political Right. They're claiming that money needs to stay here to help the American people and that we can't afford to support Ukraine.
There has been outspoken support for Putin from many on the Right.
Where was their concern when we went into Afghanistan, or into Iraq? Where was their concern for the American people when they deregulated and cut taxes for some of the wealthiest people in the world?
Putin started this war, not just to acquire a landmass, but to attack democracy. If Putin takes Ukraine, he won't stop there. Next on the list...the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). We cannot allow Putin to advance authoritarianism. If we fail to support Ukraine, Ukrainian blood will be on our hands.

Putin is Trump's idol and handler, so whatever Putin does is OK with the Repubs.

The only thing this new so called Right is concerned about is money, greed, control, and power.
If there are any true Republicans still in that Party i feel bad for them. I doubt it though. Too bad.

If they wanted money for the people, they wouldn't be against social programs that help our people. Money + Greed = the New Right.

I'd like to hear one example the reps have done to help or support the people. By people I mean regular US citizens and not giant corporations.

Louie, I never, ever listen to what people say. I watch what they do.
