There are some issues that should be above politics.
And one thing more than any other: security. The security of America and of America’s allies.
Yet President Biden´s bill for another $61 billion in aid to Ukraine is stalling. Why? Because he refuses to give in to Republicans who want to reduce the influx of illegal immigrants coming into America across the southern border.
But why should these two things be in opposition? Why not have both? Why not support America´s allies and also have security at the southern border? It is not as though we have to choose. Or at least it shouldn’t be.
After all, is this a superpower or is it not?

When you search for reasons why the US and the UK are so easily able to induce their populations to support every new war -- and why media is the primary weapon to do so -- you can't overestimate how much strength weak men derive from war cheerleading. Adam Smith in 1776:

Without doubt: it's the reason European royals would send themselves and their kids to the front lines of whatever wars they started. It's the only real test of whether a war is just: are you willing to die or have your loved ones die to fight it?
@9HP45NK5mos5MO
We should not be responsible for another country.
@9HP3CVB5mos5MO
America should aid Ukraine in fighting off Russia however they shouldn't intervene in the war in a physical stance, that is, using American soldier to aid the war.
@9HP3B2T5mos5MO
Not having more wars because they’re dangerous.
@9HP28PSRepublican5mos5MO
America should aid Ukraine because they are our allies but not in such a manner that it is greatly taking a toll on Americans taxes in a large way.
@9HP272HRepublican5mos5MO
I believe that we are giving too much money to Ukraine because it is hurting us.
@9HP23WD5mos5MO
War is bad and we need to help our allys.

@9HNZDB85mos5MO
America must protect itself first at all costs. Then America must step in to aid their allies.
@9HNZ52Q5mos5MO
my perspective on that news topic is that ukraine should have a so so if they want to be self depending state
@9HNZ3645mos5MO
i think russia is undoubtedly in the wrong, trying to claim lost counties that have an existing government but i also think we need to drastically decrease funding and refocus on nation affairs such as healthcare and our drug epidemic. aswel as inflation, homelessness, and student loan debt.
@9HNYJKC5mos5MO
Can't help Ukraine and we have to secure our own borders.
@9HNYFWZ5mos5MO

We need to focus on what is going on in the United States.
@9HNXR8H5mos5MO
Why the U.S. and the U.K. doesn't get along because we should unite against one another and become stronger.
@9HNXMFG5mos5MO
america needs to take care of ukraine because they are an alliance and we need to sercure our bourders so we arent attacked
@9HNX2LJ5mos5MO
If we can succeed in aiding Ukraine that means we are succeeding as a nation and we are becoming better and helping those in in need.
@9HNWMFPRepublican5mos5MO
We need to help ukraine and help ourselves to fight russia.
@9HNVWB75mos5MO
I feel bad for the people there and I think America could do more, but at the same time we don't want to start a war.
@9HNS3Z4Republican5mos5MO
Ukraine has devastated Russia's army to the point that they are combat ineffective. With the amount of money that has been sent abroad to support this war while many back home are struggling to afford rent or groceries or gas, Ukrainian aid should be severely reduced so we can focus internally on the many issues plaguing our nation, specifically porous borders and the influx of crime and drugs through said border.
@9HNRMYH5mos5MO
The US must support Ukraine and protect its own borders
@9HP5QRLRepublican5mos5MO
We need to secure ou borders and nothing good will come from us pulling out of ukrain
@9HP5BZDIndependent5mos5MO
America needs to leave Ukraine to fend for themselves. We need to focus on our problems
