State of Disunion

Who Wants to Vote?

 Trump Barred in 2 States, makes a very complex problem.  Can he run, with this in his way?  The final decision on Trump’s eligibility may depend on the US Supreme Court, which could block Trump from the state’s Republican primary ballot. According to some legal experts, Donald Trump could be disqualified from running for president in 2024 under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, which bars people who engage in insurrection or rebellion against the Constitution from holding federal office.

 So, I ask, Who wants to vote? If there isn't anyone on the ballot, that you feel comfortable with, to lead the nation, then why, vote? I see no reason to get out there in the middle of the mess, only to find that I can't vote for the candidate, I want to vote for. Looks as though, those "would be's" up in the mighty government of this US, is running the show, and the people, have no say! SAD DAY! AMERICA

Will America Be Strong Enough?

 This is a complex and speculative question that does not have a definitive answer. However, based on the information available, it seems that the US military and diplomatic leaders believe that the US can provide military aid to both Ukraine and Israel at the same time, without compromising its own defense capabilities or interests

According to the web search results, President Joe Biden has requested $14.3 billion for Israel, $61.4 billion to support Ukraine, $9.1 billion for humanitarian efforts in Gaza and elsewhere and $7.4 billion for the Indo-Pacific, where the US is focused on countering China’s influence3 The secretary of defense said that the Pentagon is able to continue providing aid to Ukraine in its war against Russian invasion and also support Israel after a Hamas attack sparked a new and bloody war there

The US aid to Israel and Ukraine is intended to help them defend themselves against external threats, as well as to strengthen the US strategic alliances and interests in the region. The US also seeks to deter other actors who may try to exploit the situation and escalate the conflict. The US also provides humanitarian assistance to the civilians affected by the violence and supports diplomatic efforts to resolve the crises peacefully

Of course, the US military and diplomatic aid is not without challenges and risks. The US faces opposition from some members of Congress who question the effectiveness and necessity of the aid, as well as from some international partners who criticize the US for its role in the conflicts. The US also has to balance its resources and priorities among different regions and issues, such as the US-Mexico border security, the Indo-Pacific security, and the global pandemic response. The US also has to ensure the protection of its own forces and citizens who are serving or living in the volatile areas

Therefore, the question of whether the US will be able to defend itself after sending aid to Ukraine and Israel is not a simple one to answer. It depends on many factors and uncertainties, such as the outcomes of the conflicts, the reactions of the adversaries and allies, the availability and allocation of the resources, and the political and public support for the US actions. The US military and diplomatic leaders seem confident that the US can handle the situation and maintain its security and interests, but they also acknowledge the difficulties and dangers involved

Just Part of the Deal

Fact Check: U.S. Taxpayers Pay at least $18.5B a Year for Healthcare for Illegal Aliens

 An analysis conducted by the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) finds that the American taxpayers are forced to federally subsidize about $17.14 billion every year in free medical coverage for these illegal aliens and about $12.17 billion in state medical costs for these illegal aliens as well…On the federal level, the Americans pay about $1.2 billion for the illegal alien births through Medicaid, about $3.4 billion for annual Medicaid fraud conducted by illegal aliens, and about $4.2 billion for Medicaid births by the U.S-born children of these illegal aliens…Every year, the Americans are forced to pay about $116 billion in total expenses for the millions of these illegal aliens who are living in the U.S.

Illegals Use Children

So for each child they receive $400. Now there is another “wet foot dry foot” policy. That group of people are paid with a refuge check $2400 a month plus free health and food stamps, We are just a gift tree and they all know it. These checks need to stop and funds need to be redirected to the BORDER WALL.

Illegals Are Doing This

"Recycling children" is a real, disgusting practice, given that name for a reason. Adults who are not a child's parent or relative are using children as passports to get into the US and get extra benefits immediately. In some border states, like New Mexico, illegals actually get an extra $400 from the gov't for each child they have with them, right after entering illegally. It's no wonder human trafficking and child recycling is becoming increasingly more popular - they're basically incentivized actions.

Taking A Knee?

There's a lot of places to take a knee. Americans have given their lives all over the world. When you use the banner under which they fought as a source for your displeasure, you dishonor the memories of those who bled for the very freedoms you have. That's what the red stripes mean. It represents the blood of those who spilled a sea of it defending your liberty.
While you're on your knee, pray for those that came before you, not on a manicured lawn striped and printed with numbers to announce every inch of ground taken...but on nameless hills and bloodied beaches and sweltering forests and bitter cold mountains...every inch marked by an American life lost serving that flag you protest.
