    Churchill and Zelensky

    You didn't read what I stated. This isn't 4 trillion out of ONE budget of 6.4 trillion. This is 4 trillion out of MULTIPLE years of budgets. The US federal budget in the last four years was $7.77 trillion in 2021, $6.73 trillion in 2022, $6.16 trillion in 2023, and $7.0 trillion projected for...

    How a real Statesman greets a democratic victim of a terrible tyrant!

    Ukraine is being supplied by Europe and the US. Eventually we will have to get involved. Already the UK is talking about "boots on the ground" and France is talking about a peace keeping force. Germany is trying to boost their military budget. How very noble of Europe and denigrating to the...

    How a real Statesman greets a democratic victim of a terrible tyrant!

    On the one hand you tell me Scotland doesn't want to ban it, then you turn right around and tell me that it's harassment in "safe zones". And then you tell me it's "fake news". That is, after all, the new buzz word these days to try to discredit any discussion. I haven't kept count, but it...

    Churchill and Zelensky

    You are misreading that $4.7 trillion. That isn't in one year but over a period of time, probably a 5 year budget cycle. My evidence will simply be when they reduce the deficit. If all of a sudden the budget is brought under control and taxes goes down, the ONLY reason this is possible is...

    How a real Statesman greets a democratic victim of a terrible tyrant!

    Apparently you're not old enough to remember the Civil War. The south thought they were in the right and, in the beginning, they were very successful at stopping, and even winning, many battles with the north. But the infrastructure, the factories, and even the ability to repleish troops were...

    How a real Statesman greets a democratic victim of a terrible tyrant!

    Of course they will lose territory. I feel sorry but that just the way it is unless you are proposing war with Russia. Is that your solution? I see where Ukraine has come to their senses and are ready to sign a mineral deal. Let's see if they give Trump a Nobel Peace Prize.

    How do you know it is false? Can you account for where the money has been spent? https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14407689/Elon-Musks-DOGE-Treasury-payments-untraceable.html I know, fake news. I get that quite a bit. As far as peace goes, I see that Ukraine is now ready to make a...

    How a real Statesman greets a democratic victim of a terrible tyrant!

    That is the call today, isn't it? When one doesn't want to address an issue it is simply branded "fake news". Well, below is the Scotish law for safe access zones. Based upon the law, if your private property falls within a "safe access zone", someone walks past and sees you praying, yes it...

    Churchill and Zelensky

    I posted the $100-$300 billion range because no one knows for sure. While we can look at a line item in the Defense Dept budget, far more money has been pushed through USAID and other organizations. Even the Treasury can't account for trillions of dollars it has spend on who knows what. And...

    How a real Statesman greets a democratic victim of a terrible tyrant!

    It's not "fake" news. This is a law that they are voting on in Scotland. Pretty hard to say that laws pending discussions and voting represent "fake news". In the US we would interpret what you said, "I cannot be forced to do what I do not what to do" as a double negative. Consequently...

    Not fake new. https://www.thetimes.com/uk/scotland/article/praying-at-home-illegal-depending-on-who-passes-window-msp-admits-82qqptl2h I sincerely doubt EU has stronger religious freedom protection when people are not free to express themselves on topics such as trangender, etc. But each EU...

    How a real Statesman greets a democratic victim of a terrible tyrant!

    There are no FALSE choices. Either you want a peace agreement right now or you want the war to continue. These are the choice Trump presented. But the blinding hatred of Trump makes it impossible to say they want the war to continue whatever the cost? But that is the choice of Mr. Z and all...

    Yes. We'll see how many "boots on the ground" England and Europe will provide.

    How a real Statesman greets a democratic victim of a terrible tyrant!

    You haven't looked at Europe lately, where they are trying to pass laws that if you are praying in your home you can be arrested and thrown into jail. You want peace, but are you willing to go to war for it?

    How a real Statesman greets a democratic victim of a terrible tyrant!

    BINGO! You hit the nail on the head. Everyone wants the US to pick up the tab. It is very easy for countries to bluster about self-righteously as long as someone else picks up the tab. Well, our deficit is higher than the amount of money we're bring in. It is time to cut the credit card...

    How a real Statesman greets a democratic victim of a terrible tyrant!

    No deflection, just simply showing the other side of the story. BTW, since we're talking about deflection, you never did answer whether you wanted war or peace. So what is it? Here's an interesting poll, Europe wants the war in Ukraine to continue as long as they don't have to pay for it...

    Oh please. Of course we have given that much and much more than Europe. Please tell me when Germany will stop buy oil from Russia .

    How a real Statesman greets a democratic victim of a terrible tyrant!

    I'm not shifting the argument one bit. Trump is trying to get the fighting stopped. Others are egging it on. If people don't want peace, they want war to continue. Simple as that. So some want Mr Z to continue to fight and that means we're going to have to pay for it. The old "aggression...
