As Ukraine receives an endless stream of financial and military support, problems are worsening in the United States
This is all very pleasing to neocons like Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY). He believes supporting the war in Ukraine is the top priority for our country. Nevertheless, the American people disagree, as a new Associated Press poll shows that support for involvement in the war has dropped significantly.
Americans are concerned about what is happening in Ukraine but place a higher priority on the problems in our country. As Ukraine receives an endless stream of financial and military support, problems are worsening in the United States.
As the Biden administration continues to send sophisticated weapons to Ukraine, more Americans do not feel safe in their homes. In many urban areas, as police departments shrink, crime has escalated tremendously in recent years.
As we help Ukraine protect their borders from Russian forces, our border has been invaded by millions of illegal immigrants, including dangerous criminals.
Last year, drug overdoses killed a record number of Americans. Many of those killed were victims of fentanyl overdose, which is primarily composed of chemicals made in China and processed in Mexico. This lethal drug is sent by the Mexican drug cartels into our country.
Unfortunately, America does not have enough political leaders focused on the open border and the influx of illegal drugs. They are more concerned about problems elsewhere. While over $100 billion has flowed to Ukraine, not enough money is being allocated to our Border Patrol.
