Whether it’s illegal aliens criminally entering our country, Ukraine, Israel, the Palestinians or other non-American citizens, our taxpayer money is continually being dolled out to fund the foreigners of the planet instead of our own citizens.
Everywhere you turn, there is a news story about how many millions are going here and billions are going there to one foreign country or another – or to foreigners who are in OUR country illegally but are supported by our state, local and federal government to give them what they need – food, medical care, housing, etc.
With another whopping foreign payout on the horizon now that we have a new Speaker of the House, the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget is calling for restraint.
YEAH, GOOD LUCK WITH THAT.
The White House requested [1] $106 billion in supplemental spending that includes money for for Ukraine, Israel and Gaza. Because the Democrats are throwing Israel into the mix, they think that they will get all of the money that they want for Ukraine.
However, the new Speaker, Mike Johnson (R-LA) is throwing a monkey wrench into their plans by saying that he wants the monetary requests for Ukraine and Israel split up. Johnson told Fox News’ Sean Hannity in an interview, “I told the staff at the White House today that our consensus among House Republicans is that we need to bifurcate those issues.” Although he supports the Ukrainian war effort, he says the House should focus on “limited” spending.
Spending is still spending though and the federal government doesn’t seem to be slowing down much.
Maya MacGuineas, president of the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, said in a statement, “We live in dangerous times, and this package (from Biden) includes funding for real emergencies that merit serious consideration. At the same time, we should avoid worsening our precarious fiscal situation, which weakens our ability to respond to emergencies on an ongoing basis.”
The Democrats will continue to fund what they want to fund whether it’s Ukraine, DEI, climate change or Biden’s pocketbook. There is no one to stop them.
