US should fight to defend borders in Ukraine, Israel — and at home

Well it’s hardly the first time that DC is at a stalemate. But it is one of the most serious.

At stake is my old complaint. Why we can’t we have a party — Republican or Democrat — that can both protect the borders of the United States and those of our allies?

Some Republicans and Democrats seem to have thought it was a good idea to tie these two funding issues into one bill.

Republicans thought they’d finally force the Biden administration into stopping millions of illegal migrants continuing to stream across the southern border.

Democrats hoped that by giving Republicans this concession they would be able to get through their military funding package to Ukraine and Israel.

But at the time of writing it seems that we are once again forced to consider the possibility that the US Senate and Congress now want America to be incapable of walking and chewing gum at the same time.
