It's worse than that. A few years ago, Senator Rand Paul pointed out that we are borrowing FROM China to give foreign aid TO... *China*! I kid you not! Isn't that ridiculous?
We give money to countries that do our bidding. Israel keeps the Middle East under control and Egypt keeps traffic flowing in the Suez and the US military base open.
They do. Israel provides a lot intelligence against Islamic countries, and they take out extremists so we don't have to go to war *AGAIN* in the Middle East. They also provide a lot of technology that benefits the US. Egypt lets us use the Suez Canal which is how the majority of everything we import and export travels.

Lol… End foreign aid = ignite wars, make China dominate, stop allies from buying US arms. You really are uneducated enough to not understand that the aid is not just giving free money away. It costs more for the US to not help out the people in foreign nation. But Trump and you aren’t the “three dimensional chess players”, are you. You couldn’t even see one move ahead in a one dimensional tic-tac-toe game. Why do you think Chinese corporations have ports in Panama… Because the US didn’t want to buy them for the price China offered? But hey let’s go to war to take them (as if that would cost less).
We have already sent 100 times more monies to Ukraine than should be allowed!! This is the funds that belong to the American people...Not the Employees in Washington DC... It needs to be halted, and only resume if approved by referendum of the people!! We need to circle the wagons, and take care of our country !! Too many things out of shape with in our own borders!!

So, money that would go to US companies ( Northrup Gruman, Lockheed Martin, etc. ) that have government contracts to manufacture arms, munitions, and other military equipment (so we can give Ukraine our old stuff ) will now be cut off? So, American workers are going to lose the contract that is paying their salaries? Am I misunderstanding this?

While I agree that we give away entirely too much money, why make an exception for a very wealthy country that is conducting a clearly immoral genocide. I'm not in a position to analyze the merits of every dollar we dole out but it is clear that Israel is not hurting for money and we should not be supporting their heinous acts.
However that aid should first take care of North Carolina and any help that Hawaiians still need. That should be first and foremost before everything else
Trump just said he is going to end FEMA. He said to let each state fund their own disasters while he was standing at a podium in North Carolina yesterday.
Sounds good. But what actually happens? Only the rich and well connected get that money with the govt contracts. Noooooo stimmy checks again. Don’t be fooled.
Many people think you are wrong. We are not asking for stimulus checks, we are asking for lower prices. In some cases a step backwards to go 5 forward, but worth it in the end. Dont like it leave.
Yes, but... the funding is unconstitutional. The often misconstrued "General Welfare Clause" comes into play here, but in its *correct* application. All funding by Congress must be for the "benefit of the Union of States as a whole" (the Framers' understanding of General, meaning overall, and Welfare, meaning wellbeing). This would apply to a Navy (protecting us from foreign invasion), a Federal judiciary, etc. It would NOT apply to Foreign Aid, even if it was claimed that "bribing the world keeps us safe" (I worded it in an absurd way to make the point). A good explanation can be found here on UA-cam by searching for "Not Yours to Give".
It's crazy to see the historical parallels with this comment compared to America's sentiments back when the holocaust was taking place. The "America first" set didn't want to help back then either. It was even a regular punchline in political cartoons by Dr. Suess. 😂

They've been recieving hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars over the decades, a money sink conservatives used to defend to the death. Even now getting them to admit it is like pulling teeth. The talk about dropping ukraine rings hollow (and very putin subservient) if they don't have the stones to wuestion the israel situation. Because teump sure doesn't.
And they have recieved orders of magnitude more funds than Ukraine could ever dream, and we handed them nuclear capability. Israel owes us 1000x over, they should be begging us to help with our disasters _but they never do_ .
There should be no exceptions at all.
Very simple AIPAC the own congress both sides
They are loyal to Israel first
Israel is our overlord. And Egypt...I'm not sure what's going on there, but they're an ally of the United States.
Those Israeli lobbyists are pretty darn good 🤣
They say it's reason why you need a stein if you get lawyer
“Almost “
How about egypt
US gives money to Egypt so it doesn’t attack Israel, that’s the deal since the 1970s. US citizens were lied by Trump when he said America first, it’s Israel first. lol
Trump told you he’s on team Israel. Why is this so surprising lol
Of course keep funneling cash into Israel...
SOS Mr. Rubio is surly the right person for this job. Put this money back into our country.....God knows we need it.

Why? Israel is a independent state outside of the USA.

Why is Israel always the exception???

Why is that scary ?? It shows they're confident in his ability to lead the state department .
Wow, except Israel, what a shocker.....
"America First" only means no distractions from Israeli aid
AMERICA FIRST
America second, isreal first 😂
Why are we always giving money away?
It's worse than that. A few years ago, Senator Rand Paul pointed out that we are borrowing FROM China to give foreign aid TO... *China*! I kid you not! Isn't that ridiculous?
Because we're the land of the dupes.
We give money to countries that do our bidding. Israel keeps the Middle East under control and Egypt keeps traffic flowing in the Suez and the US military base open.
Simple global hedgemony
All developed countries give foreign aid.
No foreign aid America First
- Public good irrelevant
- Human cost ignored
- Long-term damage accepted
- Suffering as leverage
- Need exploited for profit
Only Israel’s military aid should be cut.
Stop aiding Israel, or they need to give us stuff in return of equal value. Egypt too.
They do
@@El_papa_de_Rambolike what? Igniting armed conflicts and sinking US navy Ships?
They do. Israel provides a lot intelligence against Islamic countries, and they take out extremists so we don't have to go to war *AGAIN* in the Middle East. They also provide a lot of technology that benefits the US. Egypt lets us use the Suez Canal which is how the majority of everything we import and export travels. I work in shipping, and if we lose the Suez Canal and have to sail around the Cape of Africa, everything you buy and use will double in price!
Israel is very advantageous to have strong military wise
Never going to happen
Good it is just money wasted. How about redirecting it to the citizens in NC and California?
Yeah or the taxes that the rich pay? We shouldn’t tax anyone who makes so much and does sooooo much for America. 😂

Why was Israel and Egypt issued waivers? The "war" in Gaza is highly controversial and our funding of it should be discussed.

And the devil loves you 😮
Just wait until you still get nothing. 😂
Stop "ALL" foreign aid. All! America First. End all wars
HA HA. You think America first policy will and all wars. What a uber woke thing to say.
This is directed at Ukraine. Israel still gets aid? Are you blind,deaf, and dumb?
@knowledge.3563 Don't go MAGA on me😂. End all wars the US is funding or just end the funding. All of them. Use the money to bring up the white birth rate, fix families or something. Pretend the cost of freedom is so high. Buy some of that for the poor and "working class".
@knowledge.3563 Maybe it won't but it will get us out of them. None of this is any of our business and US starts most of the conflict because they want the wars. War is the health of the state.
Lol… End foreign aid = ignite wars, make China dominate, stop allies from buying US arms.
You really are uneducated enough to not understand that the aid is not just giving free money away. It costs more for the US to not help out the people in foreign nation. But Trump and you aren’t the “three dimensional chess players”, are you. You couldn’t even see one move ahead in a one dimensional tic-tac-toe game.
Why do you think Chinese corporations have ports in Panama… Because the US didn’t want to buy them for the price China offered? But hey let’s go to war to take them (as if that would cost less).
Stop ALL of it! No money for Israhxll or ukraine
Check out from whom they didn't cancel aid
Of course it was only "most".
stop aiding Israel
But not to Israel, OF COURSE!
We have already sent 100 times more monies to Ukraine than should be allowed!! This is the funds that belong to the American people...Not the Employees in Washington DC... It needs to be halted, and only resume if approved by referendum of the people!! We need to circle the wagons, and take care of our country !! Too many things out of shape with in our own borders!! It's time for the money Laundering to come to a FULL STOP!!
So, money that would go to US companies ( Northrup Gruman, Lockheed Martin, etc. ) that have government contracts to manufacture arms, munitions, and other military equipment (so we can give Ukraine our old stuff ) will now be cut off? So, American workers are going to lose the contract that is paying their salaries? Am I misunderstanding this?

Good, no more foreign aid.
While I agree that we give away entirely too much money, why make an exception for a very wealthy country that is conducting a clearly immoral genocide. I'm not in a position to analyze the merits of every dollar we dole out but it is clear that Israel is not hurting for money and we should not be supporting their heinous acts.
America First!
Isreal first you mean😂
Who could have predicted exceptions Israel?🙄🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
However that aid should first take care of North Carolina and any help that Hawaiians still need. That should be first and foremost before everything else
What about California?
Trump just said he is going to end FEMA. He said to let each state fund their own disasters while he was standing at a podium in North Carolina yesterday.
Use all that foreign aid to bring down our deficit.
What a shocking exception 😂

As it was written is from the date of the order not retroactive.
The key word is “except”. Most of the foreign aid money goes to one single “exception”. I am sure we all know which country that exception is.
Sounds good. But what actually happens? Only the rich and well connected get that money with the govt contracts. Noooooo stimmy checks again. Don’t be fooled.

*But Israel is still GETTING BILLIONS OF DOLLARS?!?*
Why?
Aren't those funds approved by Congress?
never mind if approved by Congress, now the funds are kept here in the US as Trump said will do.
Congress is double majority Republican so jumps when the orange man says so. It's the modern way.
Skirting the law. Again.
@@aplund You mean the cowardly way?
Yes, but... the funding is unconstitutional. The often misconstrued "General Welfare Clause" comes into play here, but in its *correct* application. All funding by Congress must be for the "benefit of the Union of States as a whole" (the Framers' understanding of General, meaning overall, and Welfare, meaning wellbeing). This would apply to a Navy (protecting us from foreign invasion), a Federal judiciary, etc. It would NOT apply to Foreign Aid, even if it was claimed that "bribing the world keeps us safe" (I worded it in an absurd way to make the point). A good explanation can be found here on UA-cam by searching for "Not Yours to Give".
