America must aid Ukraine AND secure our own borders — or what kind of superpower are we?
NY Post
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?
As the war in Ukraine has dragged on, there has certainly been a falling away in public and political support. It is almost as though legislators and others have become bored of the war. I understand that.
