Mr. President, where are you?

It seems like our fearless leader (ha ha) has been really busy lately doing fundraising campaigns for the Democratic Party. I guess that is more important than the crisis at the border, 298 people getting shot out of the sky in Ukraine, or Hamas and Israel firing missiles at each other.

The crisis at the border seems to get me fired up the most, because where do you think the money comes from that is used to house and care for all of those illegals? That’s right: the taxpaying citizens of the USA! Instead of using our money to house the illegal immigrants, how about that money that Mr. President earned while he is supposed to be working for us and not against us.

It seems that our president has a tendency to blame the Republicans for the problems. The thing I don’t understand about that is why can’t the Mexican government take all those illegals back in their country? It would not be right to just give them a free path to citizenship, when I know first-hand it takes time and money to get someone here from a foreign country.

Speaking of foreign country. whose side are we on? The USA is sending 47 million of our dollars for humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip, some of which goes to Hamas. Yet one of our allies is Israel. I have the answer: We are helping the thugs and not our own!
